Chapter Twenty-Seven

Jasmine's POV

I went to my locker to keep my coat before going back home.

I closed the door to my locker and I flinched as I saw Emma standing there.

"You scared me, why were you standing there silently?" I asked.

"What are you gonna do?"

"What?"

"What do you plan on doing to solve the problem you caused for Alex?" She asked again.

"I.... I don't know yet" I replied.

"Stay away from him" Emma said curtly.

"What?"

"Alex is meant for greater things Jasmine, he's part of a bigger plan that you can never comprehend, he has a goal, a purpose, an ambition and right now, you are a hindrance to him and all he has to achieve."

"H...how?"

"You distract him Jasmine" Emma said "You distract him from his purpose and if you want the best Alex, you'll stay away from him and give him some space" she said.

"I don't really understand you, I don't know how I am distracting Alex from whatever you are saying is his purpose but I work here Emma and if you're suggesting that I quit my job, no thanks" I said.

"You are stubborn" Emma said.

"I'm not stubborn, you are just trying to get me confused, I know I caused Alex trouble and I'll definitely do all I can to help him out of this, I won't let you confuse me" I said and she smiled.

"If you continue to be a problem to Alex, I'll just have to forcefully remove you" she said and walked away.

Okay now I don't like that girl.

What's up with her?

She seems to know something about Alex.

I'll have to keep an eye on her.

Ryan's POV

I went to the family Mansion and I met my older brother, Robert in the sitting room.

"Where's Dad?" I asked.

"How are you too Ryan?" He asked and I scoffed.

"Where's Dad?" I asked again.

"In his room" he replied and I went off to Dad's room.

I knocked on the door and then walked in.

He was sitting on the couch.

"Dad" I called.

"Welcome son" he said.

"I have good news Dad."

"I hope it's something worthy" he said and I smiled.

"Listen to this Dad" I said as I played the recording for him.

"Wow, this is...this is....."

"Yes Dad, this is Alexander Sanchez's voice, I am going to frame him Dad, I'll submit this to the police station and he'll be arrested" I said.

"Wow Ryan, how did you manage to pull it off?" He asked.

I was about explaining when my phone rang.

An unknown number.

"Gimme a minute" I said to Dad as I picked the call.

"Hello"

🗨️ "This is the Prime Minister speaking."

"What? Prime..... Prime Minister?" I said surprised.

🗨️ "I don't really have much time to waste so I'll go straight to the point, stay away from Alexander Sanchez and destroy whatever recording you have against him. But if you still go ahead and release the recording, then consider me as your enemy, that boy have already went through a lot and I won't let you continue to make him suffer so be warned" he said and ended the call.

"What's wrong son?" Dad asked and I told him all the Prime Minister said.

"Don't worry, go ahead with your plans, tell my driver to get my car ready, I am going out" Dad said.

Prime Minister's POV

I sat on the couch at home going through some important documents and the security came in.

"There's a Mr James Wilson that wants to see you" he said and I turned to look at him.

"James Wilson? Let him in, he's an old friend" I said and the security left.

Minutes later, James Wilson came in.

"I'm surprised you came to visit me today" I said.

"It's been so long, I think 17 years or 18 that we last met" James said.

"Yeah and I thought we agreed never to meet up again" I said as I dropped my files and looked at him.

"I'll have honoured our agreement Mr Prime Minister but you called my son today and threatened him to leave Alexander Sanchez alone."

"Well it was well deserved, he was going to blackmail that innocent young man" I said.

"And since when do you care about Alexander Sanchez?" He asked.

"What do you mean by that? I'm the Prime Minister, I'm supposed to care for all the citizens."

"Well you didn't seem to care much 17 years ago when you ordered me to get his parents killed. And you ordered for Alex to be killed too if not for the unexpected turn of events, so why the hell are you protecting him now?" James said.

"That's long in the past James, long before I became the Prime Minister, times have changed. Alex grew up to be such a talented person, he's one of our nation's best surgeon and it's my duty to protect him. I have nothing against him now, I only ordered you to kill his whole family back then due to some circumstances that you are well aware of so enough of all this journey through memory lane, if this is all you came to say then you may leave now" I said.

"You must not interfere with My son's plan on taking down Alex, infact you must act along with him, with the recording Ryan have and you supporting him, then Alex will definitely be imprisoned" James said.

"And why will I act along with you?"

"Because if you don't, then I'll tell the whole world what happened 17 years ago, think about it and make your choice carefully" James said and walked away.
