Episode 24
Halfway through, I hear the doorbell rings. I wipe my hand and rush there.
I open the door expecting to see someone, but I saw a lot of rose bouquet outside, Paul stands next to them.
He hands me a card.
“Paul, what are all this?” I asked.
“A hundred roses bouquets, it contains roses of different colors” he answered.
I jump happily and start to perceive as many as I can, taking in their fresh scent.
This so much better than that bouquet of flowers I received earlier.
I guess this is from Victor too. I check the card, and my mouth falls open.
How could this be? Him?
How is this possible? How can it be him? My smile falters.
Just then the door open and Jackson walks out, his hands tuck in his pocket.
“Do you like them?” He asked.
“Huh?”
“The roses, do you like them?” He asked.
“Y-yes” I answered.
He studies my face.
“But you’re not smiling like you did when you receive that bouquet of flowers” he said.
A grin spreads on my face. I can’t believe he would get me a bouquet of roses. I can’t imagine him ordering flowers, he’ll look cute.
“I’m smiling. Thank you, sir” I said.
He frown a little.
“New rule, don’t call me sir” he said.
“Oh, thanks Mr Mark”
” And that too” he said.
” Huh? What am I supposed to call you then?” I asked.
” Jackson”
” What?” I asked.
” Call me by my first name, Jackson!” He said.
” But aren’t you gonna fire me if I call you by your first name?. No you are looking for ways to fire me, right”
He laughs but quickly covers it with a cough.
No, I’m not going to fire you and I’m not looking for ways to. Just abide by any rules given by me or there might be….. Punishments!!” his eyes sparkle as he mentioned punishments.
I wonder what his punishments are gonna be like. Wait….I hope his punishments don’t involve torturing people to death.
I shudder at the thought.
But if I find out his punishments methods it can help Lizzy, it might be one of his secrets.
Yes!
