As the sky darkened and settled into night, the city was as usual, slowly transitioning from day to night. People began to come out to celebrate the weekend. Quickly changing from their work outfits, into something more flashy and casual. The city was a usual but admist all the regular activities, black tinted luxury cars could be spotted at almost every part of the city. Especially the high class environment.
With each invitation card a black car came along, picking up each attendee.
"I'm sorry miss but you have to give us your phone and any other smart device you have on you. It will be returned after the party." The bodyguards recited the script prepared for each of them for each high class guest. And the guests rarely made a fuss, as it was already clearly stated in the invitation cards. The location of the manor was not to be disclosed at any point in time.
As guests began their journey from different parts of the city, they paths clashed incidentally, so you could see if you were paying attention a long convoy of identical cars driving out of the city. Whilst all this took place the manor was in a bustle, making final arrangements for their vip guests. It would be hell for the staff, serving people pampered all their lives.
Jessie stood in her room as she contemplated, all the preparations, although she was not a part of it got to her. She had a decision to make.
"Miss Jessie, Chairman Kang has sent this for you." Agnes placed the sliver dress on her bed. Jessie eyes the dress with silent appreciation. The dress was well suited to her body, and she could tell without putting it on that it was a thigh high slit. To show off her incredibly long legs. The dress had no back, just straps across it. While many women could pull such a dress off without stress, Jessie immediately began to wonder of she had the strapless, and backless bra to go with it. Her bust was too generous to gladly walk out without a bra on. And while she would gladly put her long legs on display she didn't like showing cleavage very much, luckily the neck line although not too modest wasn't revealing. Just eye catching. After a few seconds of inspection she looked up and saw Agnes still beside her with another clothing bag.
"Two dresses?" She asked.
"Not exactly, more like two outfits." Agnes stated, zipping open the bag she pulled out the uniform the staff was to wear for the evening. She eyed the black formal knee length dress and whit apron with curiosity.
With that same expression she looked up at Agnes. Agnes nodded and began to explain.
"I spoke with Mr. Jonathan earlier, he called." Jessie brow rose. "He said he managed to get the design to Chairman Kang's manor, and that there may be a way to sneak you out of the grounds without raising suspicion. I figured it would be easier to wear a staff uniform since you still haven't confirmed with the Chairman about attending the party." She explained.
Jessie was shocked but she didn't show it, with the life she has had, things like this seemed pretty all of a sudden. But she couldn't help but ask the obvious question. "You spoke to Jonathan?" She nodded. "Why?"
"I'm sorry but I've been listening to your conversations I was to curious. Forgive me, but I may be direct, are you just going to give up on finding the detective?" Agnes asked.
Jessie blinked at her, remaining silent. "You've planned this regardless of how difficult it was to do so in this manor, you have a real chance here please don't waste it." She continued.
"Wait a minute, you want me to leave the ball? I mean Jason made serious arrangements and took serious risks to throw it here because he thought I was mad at him for the last time. And you just want me to leave?" Jessie asked with a lot of uncertainty.
"Let's be honest, from what you told me. Although Chairman Kang let you go and insists you're not a hostage don't you feel like one? You can't leave the manor with a least two bodyguards watching your every move. Plus until when is he going to keep helping you without results?" She said bluntly.
Jessie's jaw dropped slightly and as she opens her mouth to speak she shut but again, not having any words to defend Jason. But why did she feel the need to defend him? Agnes was right, it was true if you looked at it logically, but Jessie knew she didn't. As much as she hated to admit, some part of her knew Jason was being honest when he said he loved her, and he really was working on helping her. But how much could he carry alone? He was the owner of this business that had tens of thousands of employees, he had his own responsibilities yet he was determined to help her. Was she the only one that saw it this way? Why did she even see it this way?
"Is that really what you think about Jason?" Jessie asked.
"Yes, I understand that be may really have come to care for you, that fact it is obvious to anyone with eyes. But I believe he has become too comfortable with having you around. Besides this is something you must do yourself."
Jessie bit her lip, "did Jonathan tell you to convince me like that? I know he doesn't like his brother." She said.
Agnes replied her question with a small smile. "All I want for you, miss Jessie is too be happy. Do what makes you really happy. It's your life after all." She bowed and walked out, but not before placing the uniform beside her dress.
Jessie stared at the two dresses before her, chase after getting her life back on her own or choose to trust Jason? Both options full of uncertainty, she didn't know the end result of either.
She hoped it wouldn't have to come to this but at the end she had to choose.

"How dare you! How many times have I told you to leave my son alone?! You even had the effontry to yell at me so confidently the other time, what? You're not involved with Paul? How have you bewitched my son you witch!" She spat.
Katherine fought the urge to roll her eyes, she sighed inwardly and prayed it would end quickly.
"He actually yelled at his elder because of you?!" She continued.
'I didn't ask him to do that.'
