Chapter 9

"I asked you to bring a girlfriend! And this is what you are doing." Scarlett shouted at the top of her lungs making Jason gulp in fear, "Grandma...this was the only way." Jason Answered when he felt she was ready to hear him out.

"Oh really?" Scarlett asked sternly, "There were different ways, the first way, was to fall in love with someone," She walked towards him making him take a step back in fear, even though he loved his grandma with all his heart, but sometimes. she was a scary woman.

"The second one was to date one of the girl I set you up with."

"The second one wasn't an option for him, grandma." Austin replied, who was sitting on, one of the armchair in Jason's room and was enjoying his friends misery.

"Shut up Austin!" Jason shouted, "Don't shout at him." Scarlett said, making Jason shut his mouth.

Jason took a deep breath and said "Grandma, I know this is not something to do, for finding a girlfriend but...." He continued when he saw his grandma, waiting for to finish his words, "I promise to find a girl and bring her to you."

"I don't want you to just find a girl, I want you to find true love." Scarlett said, and sat down on the chair beside Austin, "Trust him." Austin said, making Scarlett nod her head, maybe this was the way that his destiny will bring his love to him, Scarlett thought, and nodded her head.

Jason sighed in relief when he knew she was okay with his decision, "I have some work at the company, I'll leave." Jason said.

When he entered inside the company, everyone were staring at him, he looked at them in anger, making them avert their eyes in fear, "This is so embarrassing." Jason said.

"I-I guess so." Austin replied, he was trying his best not to laugh, as soon as they were in the elevator, Jason punched Austin lightly, making Austin stumble back, he was shocked at the sudden impact.

When he saw Jason smirking, he gritted his teeth getting a bit angry, and fisted his hand, suddenly Jason saw Austin was ready to punch him , he dodged his attack and soon both of them were having a fist fight in the elevator.

When the elevator reached the Sixteenth floor, both of them looked like they were attacked by some goons, "Ahem." Someone cleared their throat to gain their attention.

Jason turned towards the direction of the sound when he saw, Phil was standing in front of the elevator with some of the employees, Jason hurriedly fixed his hair and blazer. While Austin didn't care how he looked and made his way towards the conference room.

For the employees of the company, it was a normal sight to see both of them fighting, Phil sighed, he knew they again had a fight on a silly thing.

"Please, start the meeting." Jason said as he sat down on his chair, "So, we have made a full plan on how the contest will be."

Jason nodded he listened to all of their ideas, but wasn't sure if this contest was worth all the trouble.

He decided to get some fresh air after the meeting and went towards his red car, his phone started ringing when he was about to sit in.

"What?" Jason asked getting a bit irritated, "He is ready for a meeting." The man on the other side of the call informed him, making him grip the phone tightly.

"When?" Jason questioned, "Tomorrow." The man replied, "Alright." Jason said and cut the call.

Jason closed the door of the car and went inside his company. He straight went towards Austin cabin and saw him flirting with his PA, "Austin, We need to talk." Jason said making Austin groan.

"What?" He shouted, "It's about him."

Austin understood what he meant, he asked his PA to go out, "What happened?" Austin asked worriedly.

"We are going to have a meeting tomorrow." Jason replied, they were ready with a plan.

"I will just have a juice." Claire said to the waiter, she was in one of the best restaurant to have a lunch with Emily, who was coming to meet her,

It's been fifteen minutes, but she was still not here, "Are you sure about this." Claire heard a man's voice "I'm hundred percent sure." Claire knew who this voice belonged to, it was Jason, she was definitely sure.

She was so sure because last night, she had seen all his interviews and listened to his every word.

She didn't want to listen to their conversation, but she couldn't help herself since she has participate in the contest, she has to know a lot about him, after all this contest is to find someone for him, she has to know a lot if she wants to stay for a long time in the contest.

"He will be here any minute." Jason said, Claire could hear anger in his voice, she wanted to turn back and look at him, but she was scared, what if he recognised her.

Thinking about getting caught, Claire decided to leave, she took her clutch an got up from the chair, she thought to apologise to Emily later.

Suddenly she crashed into someone while walking out, "What the-" She went quite when she saw a man, who was looking at her with anger like he was ready to kill her, he had long black hair, and his eyes were green in colour, there was a scar on his forehead, he looked scary.

"Can't you see." He said with gritted teeth , making Claire a bit scared, "I-I'm sorry." Claire said.

The man looked at her in anger, "Is everything alright?" The man standing beside him asked, "Cancel the meeting." He replied and walked out from there.

Claire was still standing there, dumfounded at what happened and a bit scared.

"What!" She heard Jason's voice, "He can't cancel the meeting like this!" He shouted at the man, who apologised and left from there.

Claire didn't understand what was happening, and just left from there.
