The Silver Crescent Alpha Prince

Chapter 87 - The Party (4)

"However? What however?" Jason asked with anticipation when Dawn stopped mid-sentence.

Dawn looked at Alvarez and then to Mr. White. They shook their heads. Mr. White said, "Ms. Dawn, why don\'t you sign the papers? I will take this man with me now in police custody."

"No!" Jason shrieked. "You can\'t do this Dawn. Imagine what kind of embarrassment you would face in your family when they will hear about what you\'ve done with me."

Dawn\'s eyes went to Azura but he was looking down. \'He knew all along about Jason and yet didn\'t tell me anything,\' she thought. She shifted her gaze back to Jason and said, "I have stopped caring about my family." She waved her hand vaguely. "Also, I have an option."

"What is it?" asked Jason ready to hold the last straw in the ocean to save his life from an impending lawsuit.

Dawn took her tongue forward and licked her teeth. She gave a small smile, opened the manila folder and ran through the documents inside. She picked out one of them and handed it to him. "Read this paper."

Jason frowned. He read it thoroughly. His day was turning into a nightmare. He sat down on the couch near him feeling too weak in his knees. Everything seemed to disappear in thin air – his dreams, his ambition and his luck. It was a sale deed. "This is ridiculous," he shouted.

"Your option is to sell the company to me at the prices mentioned over there. If you sell it to me, I will not file the suit. However, if you do not, Mr. White is standing here to take you to the police station. And I am sure that Uncle Alvarez is more than eager to get his hands on you. I believe there is a previous pending case of attempted abduction of two kids lying against you," Dawn\'s voice was cold and brutal.

His blood froze.

The guests of the party had started dispersing. No one was interested in what was going on. They just wanted to leave the place as soon as possible. In the end, only Daniel Hugh was standing there, observing everything about her. She only impressed him all the more.

"No! There is no case against me," Jason replied in a shrill voice. "You are misleading."

Dawn shrugged. "It will take me two minutes to file that one too."

This was worse than any nightmare. She had come back to haunt him but he wouldn\'t let her do that. In order to get to her big time, he had to let go of his company. All of the men were in her favor and now was not the time to argue. She had shown him the printed emails in which he had talked about selling information. He held his hand in his head. "You are so going to regret this Dawn," he said in a shaky voice.

"No Jason, you are going to regret having ever entered our life. If you have the guts, go and tell Helena also about what happened," replied Dawn as if throwing the gauntlet and shoved the papers in front of him. "I am offering you the best price for your \'about to go down\' company. Sign these papers and get out of here."

Jason said with quivering lips, "Get me a pen." If he didn\'t sign, the outcome would be horrible.

Alvarez smiled and gave his pen.

Jason signed the papers at all the places where his signatures were required. At the end of it, he got up and threw the pen down. The girl had trapped him from all the sides like a mouse in a rat trap. He couldn\'t do anything. She had perfectly sealed all the exits. He asked her, "How did you know about my emails?"

She raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh, Cole hacked into your website." She pointed towards her brother who gave him a slight bow.

Jason\'s eyes became wide with shock. "C— Cole? That is Cole\'s deed? B— but he is only fifteen."

"I am glad you remembered his age," Dawn sniggered.

"And that is also crime!" he lashed.

"Do you have proof that he hacked?" asked Mr. White.

"N— no!" Jason stuttered.

"Then he hasn\'t hacked," came a calm reply.

"What?" Jason was now gobsmacked. His breaths became shaky. He pressed down on his ribcage as if trying to force his lungs to breathe. Shaking his head in denial he said, "Dawn, this isn\'t the last. I am going to make you cry for what you did to me. You have literally snatched my eight million worth company, in only five thousand dollars. I will make you pay the rest of the money." Saying that he rushed out of the house.

As for Dawn, she picked up the papers Jason had just signed and smiled triumphantly. "This is just the beginning, Jason. Brace yourself for more," she muttered.

Cole came running to her and hugged his sister. "You did great sis," he said in a soft voice. He was proud of her. The two held each other tightly. It was their first collective victory.

"You better grow up fast Cole. I don\'t know anything about software companies," Dawn laughed.

Seeing the siblings in that state, Mr. White said, "I believe my work here is over. I will take your leave."

"Thank you Mr. White," she replied with deep appreciation. The man bowed and left.

Alvarez smiled and patted her back. "See you soon," he said. He handed her a set of keys. "This is for your new house and office." He left after hugging the two siblings. He was really happy for them.

When Daryn heard \'new house\' he became angry and he closed his fists so tightly that his knuckles became white.

Dawn looked at Azura and took out the blue velvet box. She walked up to him and gave it back saying, "Azura, thanks for all you have done so far. However, I won\'t be able to work for you any longer."

"But Dawn, what have I done?" he asked, feeling pained.

"How do you know Jason?" she asked.

Azura bit his lip and looked away. So she knew. He couldn\'t say a word. Dawn gave him the necklace back. "Give me a chance to rectify," he said.

Dawn shook her head. "No, you had the first chance. I can\'t trust you ever." After a pause she added, "I will be handing over this house to you by tomorrow."

Azura couldn\'t hold his heartache anymore. He went away and so did Daniel Hugh. The only people left in the room were Dawn, Cole, Daryn and the party manager who had come to collect his stuff and payment.

Cole went to them to manage things. Dawn started to wind up. Daryn came up to her. "That was quite a show, DW." So this was DW he had praised secretly and wanted to hire. His Dawn.

Her face became red with anger. "Go away," she said bitterly. "Maya must be waiting for you."

"Maya?" Where did she come from? He frowned.

"Stop pretending Daryn. Didn\'t you read the article in the fashion magazine? The one about her depression?" Dawn shouted. She was so furious with him that her mind exploded. She took the magazine out from her purse, tore its cover page and the page that had the article, crumpled it and threw it at his face. "The wedding is postponed?"

Cole and others looked at the two with bewilderment. Cole sighed.

Daryn growled as anger seeped in him. "You are so infuriating Dawn," he said and grabbed her arm.

"I am leaving you," she said, baring her teeth, and tried to remove him.

He caught her arm with force and said, "You are not going anywhere."

"Who are you to stop me?"

Daryn looked at Cole and said, "Go back to the penthouse. I am taking your sister to my office to show something." Saying that he lugged a revolting and screaming Dawn on his right shoulder and spanked her buttocks. "Shut up!"
