"Are you mad?" Paul asked. "You want to go against the Lee's? That suicide."

"What? They started it, I was one my own leaving me own life and bam! Just like that kidnapped and sold, how is that fair?" Jessie asked. ​​

"You're not going anywhere close to Patricia or Goerge." Jason said walking back into the room.

"Why?" Jessie asked.

"Because it's too dangerous." Paul replied.

Jason nodded in agreement.

"Why are you guys so scared of this family?" Jessie asked.

"Yeah, I want to know as well." Katherine said.

"It's not that we're afraid." Jason said.

"Speak for yourself bro, I'm terrified." Paul shivered and winked at the ladies.

Katherine scoffed. "I don't understand, I mean I get that they are the richest family in the country but it's not as if we leave in the past and they are royalty." She shook her head.

"They might as well be. They are master manipulator and can deceive people into situations that give them power over you. Not to mention they are expensively dangerous and very wicked." Paul said in a very serious and annoyed tone.

"How do they get that power? Surely the powerful people of the country aren't ones to just bow to someone." Jessie said.

"Oh you have no idea, it's bad. Like they have some secret power to control people or something. But no one even tried to compete with them." Paul frowned. "By the way, why did the devil call you?" He asked Jason.

"He said I haven't signed the non disclosure agreement for purchasing Jessie." He said his voice quite distant as if he was in deep thought.

Jessie looked up at him at that statement.

"So what does that mean? What's in the contract?" Katherine asked.

"I don't know? I took it that day to look over it but I completely forgot about it." Jason said.

"Are you going to sign it?" Paul asked.

"I don't know" He shrugged. "It depends on what is involved." He said.

"So this George just let you take me? Without any signing?" Jessie asked.

"I'm not everyone Jessie" Jason said with a sly grin. "While they have the entire country under their slimy hold, our families share a mutual understanding.... I think."

"So your not scared of the Lee's then." She asked.

"No. I'm not scared of anything Jessie." Jason stated curtly.

"Then will you help me bring them down?" Jessie asked.

"I don't know if that's even possible." Jason warned.

"If you guys won't help me how am I supposed to get justice?" She frowned getting frustrated.

"What you want isn't justice but revenge." Paul replied.

"So? Don't I deserve that too?" She said.

"Jessie, it's one thing to clear your name, but going against the Lee's that just reckless and dangerous." Jason stated firmly.

"I don't care, I practically don't even exist anymore, apart from the people in this room and the staff. I'm dead to the world. What else do I have to lose?!" She yelled.

"How about you actual f******* life!" Jason yelled back. "Look Jessie" He said softly. "I understand your anger but this is dangerous."

"What the hell do you understand?" Jessie asked him. "Tell me, did you lose your life? Your dream, ambition and life in the single space of one week? Tell me!"

"I am not going to let you risk your life because your blinded by anger right now!" Jason replied.

Jessie pulled at her hair. "What the hell even gives you the right to make such decisions for me? You aren't anything to me!" She screamed.

Jason flinched at her statement, why it hurt him so much was a mystery to him. But he was hurt.

"I honestly don't care what you say Jessie, you're not doing it." He said.

"I'll like to see you try and stop me!"

Jason laughed "Is that supposed to be a threat? You forget I actually brought you to this house as a prisoner. Don't test me Jessie, you wouldn't like it. I can easily keep you here and refuse to let you go, or you'll listen to reason and be safe. For crying out loud I'm just trying to look out for you." He yelled.

"Who asked you? Did I say I needed your help?" She asked.

"That's literally what you were just asking for." Jason stated and Jessie palmed her face at his stupidity.

"Well you either help me out or I do it myself!" She warned him. "Since you so concerned for my safety all of a sudden. Your choice."

Jason grinned and Jessie frowned. She hated it when he had that expression, it never meant well.

"Cute. You either drop this whole revenge act or I'll keep you here as a prisoner not a guest." He smiled. "Your choice."

Jessie bit her lip and fisted her palm in frustration, ugh! She could never win against him. It was annoying.

"How the hell are they arguing again?" Katherine whispered to Paul.

Paul looked surprised at first then he smiled.

"You just spoke to me" He said.

Katherine who was distracted with what seemed to be a glaring competition in front of her answered. "Yes so?"

"I guess that means you're no longer mad right?" Paul said.

Katherine broke her gaze and looked at a smiling Paul. She snorted and got up walking to another the only available couch farthest from Paul. "I hope that answers your question."

Paul pouted and looked away.

"So what's is it going to be?" Jason asked her.

"This isn't fair!" Jessie screamed breathing heavily.

"Hmm.... well life isn't fair." He said.

"So I'm just supposed to let everyone keep believing I'm dead and a murderer?" Jessie asked.

"I didn't say that, you can try to prove your innocence and clear your name get your justice but I will not let you put yourself in danger by trying to get revenge." Jason said.

"So I can go out into the public if I'm not trying to go against the Lee's." She asked.

"Yeah, but you know you have to wear a disguise, people can't know who you are." Jason said.

"Sure, sure this isn't my first rodeo."

"So what's it going to be? Justice or Revenge?"

'Both' Jessie said to herself but she looked up at Jason and smiled. "Fine... I'll choose justice."

"Good. And don't try any funny business, I will find out." He said.

"Of course, I give my word." She smiled as innocently as she could. Jason nodded in belief.

If she couldn't beat him at a verbal argument she would do what she was best at, acting.
