Chapter 27 The feeling called Jealousy
After the photo shoot were done, Elle headed directly to James' company. They was going to be a presentation concerning a new business venture both companies were planning to go into.
Elle smirked as she drove when she remembered the next day was going to be James' birthday.
She brought out her phone and then dailed Damien's number. He answered the call immediately.
"Yes pretty.."
"Dam, stop trailing James.." Elle suddenly said and Damien sighed.
"I thought we agreed on this. Trailing can actually help us, we can even find more on his illegal businesses in the country and also who is his partners are. I'm sure you know he's not working alone.." He said immediately. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Elle smiled.
"I know but as we all know, James is a very smart man. He might catch on you later and that's the last thing I want right now. Our identities can be revealed and moreover, tomorrow I'm going to be planting those CCTV cameras in his house..."
"But, it's dangerous. Why don't I do it?" Damien asked and Elle smirked.
"I can actually try. But you are right. I'll make sure to distract those at the party while you plant the cctv cameras. Tomorrow is going to be a sweet day for me.." She chuckled and Damien laughed.
"And..."
"Can you also get a gift for my fake dad in law, I will Tyson's fake girlfriend soon, you know.." She said and they both laughed.
"What kind of gift do you want?"
"I want a dangerous but exquisite gift for him.." She said and smirked.
"Actually, no..."
"I have a plan.." She added with a wicked glint on her face.
"What?"
"I'll tell you the details at home. No worries for now.."
"Okay.."
"I'll be home late today. I'll be going to a meeting with fake dad in law and also going on shopping with my fake mum in law.." Elle smirked.
"Gosh! Danielle, you are really venomous. You already creeping into their lives.."
"That's what I want. She has no idea of what she's going to face today. And my plan is also to gain her trust, Lauren loves material things so much and that will mark her downfall.." Elle said and then increased the speed of the car.

Elle knocked on the door and walked in. The board members were already there. It was obvious the meeting had already started.
"I'm so sorry for being late.." She said and sat down right opposite to Jason. He looked at her and their eyes met. She simply smiled at him while he nodded. Unknown to her, Tyson was in the room already but she didn't notice. Tyson glared at Jason angrily as he watched the both of them intract through their gazes and smiles. He was literally burning with jealousy.
The meeting went on and on until it finally ended. Soon all the board members were gone excluding James, Tyson, Jason and Elle.
"So, Governor, should I wish you a happy birthday in advance..' Elle smiled and they all chuckled except Jason who was busy with his phone.
"I'm sure you are aware of my birthday party tomorrow. You shouldn't miss it, Miss Browns.." James said and stood up.
"Of course not, I will definitely not miss it for anything, governor.." Elle smiled.
"Ah! Yes!"
"That reminds me, Miss Brown. Can you and Jason go do the sight seeing tomorrow. I won't have time to go because of the preparations.." James said and Jason looked up.
He was about to reply but Tyson beat him to it.
"Dad, do you think it's necessary to disturb Jason. I heard him saying he had a business meeting tomorrow, so no need to disturb him. I'll go in his stead, right bro?" Tyson said with a smile.
"Oh! Jason, is that true?" James asked.
Elle looked at both brothers wondering what was going on.
Jason scanned Tyson's face and he realised his intentions. He was doing that so he could time alone with Elle.
Suddenly Jason smirked.
"No, It's perfectly fine, Dad. I don't have a business meeting tomorrow. It's the day after my birthday. I'm sure Tyson heard it wrong.." Jason lied and Tyson's eyes widened in surprise.
"But..."
"Dad, no worries. I will go with Miss Browns.." Jason said and took his eyes to Elle. Elle smiled and he returned it also while Tyson clenched his fists angrily.
He doesn't understand why he gets angry when Elle and his brother interact. What more if they stay close to each other?
"But Dad.."
"No buts, Tyson. We have work here. Don't forget your brother has his companies to attend to. This company is yours to attend to and there are lots of work to be done. So never mind, Jason will go.." James said and Tyson forced out a smile.
"Since everything is settled now. I really have to go. I'm going shopping with Ma'am Lauren and I wouldn't want to keep her waiting..' Elle said and grabbed her bag and then she walked out with her heels clicking.
"I have to go too, Dad. See you..' Jason said and made to walk out but his father voice's stopped him.
"You must attend my birthday party tomorrow. You are not always around on my birthday.." He said and Jason clenched his fists tightly before turning to him.
"Dad, I'll.. I'll try to come.." Jason said and walked out.
He sighed as he did. He knew what his father was trying to do. He was definitely trying to remind him of the ugly thing that happened.
He got to his car and as he made to open it. A voice stopped him again.
Jason scoffed and turned back to see Tyson. Tyson walked to him with a smile one voumd easily tell was fake.
"What?" Jason asked bluntly.
"I'm sure I heard you clearly. The business meeting is going to take place tomorrow.." Tyson smirked and Jason scoffed.
"So?"
"Why did you do that then?"
"It's none of your business.." Jason said and made to open his car.
"Do you like her? Do you like my girlfriend?" Tyson asked and Jason scoffed, preventing himself from laughing.
"Your girlfriend?!"
"Well, If that's what you are thinking, then so be it. I actually don't want to waste my time. See you when I see you.." Jason said and then opened his car's door and entered it.
Tyson clenched his fists and stormed away angrily.
Jason sighed and picked up his phone and then dailed his secretary's number.
"Postpone tomorrow's conference.." He said.
"What? But sir, I.. "
"I organized the conference right? So postpone it and if you argue with me again consider 20% of your salary gone.." Jason said and hing up.
He sighed again and rested his head on the sterling.
"Gosh! Why did I do that? Why was I angry at the fact that Tyson was going alone with Elle? That shouldn't concern me but .." He paused again and then started the ignition.
"I'll forget it.." He said and then drove off.
