Jason waited all night for Jessie to show up. He kept looking at the stairs, wondering when he would see does seductive creamy legs of hers, or her perfectly shaped body floating with elegance. But she hadn't shown up. Did she really leave then? He sighed, when it came down to it she didn't choose him. He made it very easy for her to leave this night, should he not have? No, he said he would give her a choice and respect her decision. He just really hoped her feelings for him were strong enough to make her choose him.
"Jason it's time for the waltz." Patricia whispered in his ear. Without having to look up she looked straight into his eyes, and without having to lean upwards she could whisper easily as well. He didn't know if it was the heels but even with heels Jessie still had to look up at him. And he wouldn't say he was a tall man, Jonathan was certainly taller, although Jonathan could be considered a giant if he had more muscles on his body. But what he wondered was if Patricia was taller than Jessie shouldn't she have longer legs?
He led her towards the centre of the room and placed his arms politely behind her waist and took the other in his plams. They began, she was a seasoned dancer no surprise there. And he led her as he should, the room was quiet save the small orchestra playing in the background.
He looked into Patricia eyes as they danced, he himself had to admit anyone would be enticed by their intensity and allure. Her bright brown eyes held such an eccentricity, her sharp features made her look like one of the sculptures of Greek goddesses. Her currently nude lips thin and small, her pointed nose and small eyes. She was stunning, but whilst others would see this. He only saw the wicked truth, she was a Lee. And the only person he wanted to dance with like this was Jessie. He made a mad mistake, he couldn't let her go.
Soon enough the dance came to an end and he bowed respectfully after leading her off the dance floor. He left quickly, looking for a waiter in a black dress that fit Jessie's profile.

"Who called?"
"Jonathan Kang sir." Agnes said bowing respectfully.
Jason glared at the maid standing before him, a few moments ago she was just recounting everything that had happened the past week, after his fight with Jessie, when she was supposed to be 'mad'.
"He called again?" Jason asked with a wicked laugh. "What did he say?"
"He asked me to tell miss Jessie that he has a plan to get her out of the manor." She replied.
"Of my manor? Now that can't be right? Did he mention how?"
"He said he managed to get his hands on the blueprints of the manor and there is a way out, without raising suspicion." She answered.
Jason scoffed, 'wow what a fool I've been! I can't believe Jessie, so she has been lying to me?'
"So? What then?" He asked, masking his anger and hurt. That was all she seemed to be doing these days. Did she think he was an inanimate object? Why would she continue to do this?
"He wants her to keep a low profile and during the party they'll find a way to sneak her out."
"They?"
"Um... another woman, she's a fan of Jessie's I don't know her name." She said politely. "And considering the fact that miss Jessie planned the escape in the first place..." she trailed off.
"You said Jessie also trusts you? Why are you telling me this? Aren't you betraying her?" He asked sincerely.
"It may seem like betrayal but I'm doing what I think is right sir. It's obvious that you truly love miss Jessie, if anything this week has been a proof. I don't know about Mr. Kang, but I know you. If you love her you would do anything you can to keep her safe. After all she's been with you two months and she is still alive and well." Agnes explained. "I don't like to gamble sir neither do I like trying new things , I might sound boring but I prefer to remain confident and comfortable with my choices. I am confident your intentions for Miss Jessie aren't malicious but quite the opposite."
"Aren't you giving me too much credit? I mean I did invite her mortal enemy to her safe haven." Jason said.
"Keep your friends close and enemies closer. If you wanted to harm her you would have done it by now." Agnes replied curtly.
Jason pursed his lips and stared intently at the woman before him, if she saw through him so clearly why couldn't Jessie?
"Tell her about Jonathan's call."
"What?" Agnes asked with a shocked expression.
"If she really went to all this trouble to escape this manor and look for revenge then I shouldn't stop her-"
"But sir!"
"It's okay. I need to do this, I've thought about it and I've come to the conclusion. I promised myself a while ago to give her freedom, but I mustn't have done good considering the fact that she would lie to me like this." Jason said. And Agnes looked at her feet, he was really hurt.
"I won't stop protecting her, I can't even stop but I am going to give her space. She isn't the type to remain sitting for too long, and that's one of the reasons I fell in love with her so I shouldn't change her." He continued. "I'll give her a choice it up to her. Tell her and give her the maids uniform. Also I prepared a dress for her to wear this evening give that to her as well."
"What if she doesn't choose to remain?" Agnes asked with uneasiness.
"So be it."
***************************************************
'So be it?' Jason scoffed. Why would he even say something as tacky as that? 'So be it.' He huffed.
"Who the hell is that?" Someone asked behind him and he looked back. Many people looked towards the stairs so he did as well and his lips titled upwards into a smile.
"So be it."

"So what? You think you've won?" She said in her drunken state.
"Haven't I?" Yuri asked raising her left hand up to show her the engagement ring. "He gave it to me just this evening, isn't it beautiful?"
"What the hell are you trying to achieve by telling me that? You bitch?" Katherine spat.
"Back off, I don't want to see trash like you around Paul. He didn't love you when you were kids he doesn't love you now."
