Annabelle's POV
"Where have you been? Do you know how many times I called you?" I was raising my voice at Jason who called and told me he's right outside.
"Can you just come let me in?" He sounded provoked, well he's not the only one.
I stood up from the bed and went straight to the door to let him in, I grab my robe and put it over my nightie and went down to open the door.
"Hey!" He greeted with a smile.
"Do you have any idea what time it is? Why are you here?'' I stood by the door but he simply ignored me and came inside.
"Jeez Jason am so happy to see you? Did you find Emma yet?' he sarcastically said, losing balance.
"Are you drunk, Jason?" I grab him by the waist helping him sit down. " What's going on with you?" I asked.
"What does it matter Belle, everything I've ever known was a lie, atleast so I think." He said wailing.
"What's wrong? You can talk me," I reach for his hands and put them together with mine.
"Have you thought about leaving me Belle?" He hit me with the question. "Why do everything I do seem like am out to get you?" He added again leaving me dumbfounded.
"You're too drunk to talk babe, let's get you to sleep." I held him by the face, I just can't believe he's drinking again, he's been staying sober and just like that he gave it up, what could really be bothering him.
Helping him up we went straight to my room, before I could even help him out of his cloths he was already fast asleep, I gave him a peck on the cheeks before going to sleep too.

"Finally awake, did you sleep well?" I came in with breakfast.
"I need some pills for the headache." He stood upright facing me who was now on the bed.
"No pills for you, what were you thinking, what got you drunk yesterday?"
"Am sorry for bothering you, I'll leave now."
"No you do not get to shut me up, what is going on with you? Talk to me," I moved closer to him, it's time I start acting like a good girlfriend.
But he simply shrugged me off, getting up to go. I can't believe him right now how can he show up to my place drunk and expect me not to ask any question.
"If you walk out of that door Jason, we're done and I mean it this time." I sat by the edge of the bed looking down.
"I promise it'll all make sense, but I have to go now. I love you." He was standing by the door before leaving.
I sit there crying my eyes out, I know am not really good the whole relationship thing myself, but I've had enough and shutting me off isn't the way to go, I've officially become so problematic that people don't even tell me stuffs anymore.
I was laying down, face up when I received a message from Kelly. Shoot I totally forgot my launch party is in two days and here I am drowning in my thoughts, I haven't even planned anything, I was suppose to approve everything for it, this could be it.
I thought the party would help Alex and Maddie but maybe it'll help my relationship and maybe settle everything.
Getting up I decided to go work on the invitations and send them to everyone I know, heck even Daniel is invited assuming he makes it, and of course Brandon and Bradley too. This was big deal for me and I wanted to share it with everyone else.
I left Kelly to handle all the decorations and catering for that day and I handled rest, Henri will be out this weekend so I needed someone to fill in for him, after approving most of the plans via email I decided to get ready for the day.
"Ma'am this came in from the mail." The house help came in while I was in the living room getting ready to go out.
"Keep it." I answered mainly focusing on my hair.
I read the heading of the mail but I didn't need to read further to know who it was from, it had the royal seal so it's definitely from England, I didn't bother opening it and left for work immediately.
I was already late so I had to hurry, I needed to go check on the swimwear and clarify it'll be ready for the party, the full collection will be out next week.
Jason's POV
"Emma, Emm?" I got home this morning to check up on my sister.
She was seated leg crossed on the couch watching TV, she looked so calm and happy and that was all I needed to know, she immediately stumbled when she saw me as if she has seen a ghost.
"Jason, I didn't think you'd be here," she sounded different.
"Well I live here and remember you got kidnapped not a while ago, shouldn't you be at alert?" I came over to sit by her.
"I know I just why are you here?" Just great, why is everyone asking me that today I thought.
"I live here Emma, where's Ma and Pa?"
"Can you sign this for me?'' she brought out a piece of paper from the hoodie she was wearing. "Schools about to open and I need your signature to carry out a switch." She explained Before I could read it.
"What switch?" I paused looking at her now, " are you failing Emm?"
"No it's for the new campus in LA, I don't want to be at California anymore," she came out avoiding eye contact.
"Did Travis do something, why do you all of a sudden want to leave?" I tried to comfort her but she simply hide her hands back into her pockets.
"I'll explain later just please sign them." She said looking down.
I didn't want to ask questions and I for one understands when someone is going through stuffs, especially after what happened maybe it's connected to the kidnapping so I simply signed the papers before giving her a peck on the forehead and left, I could hear her silently sobbing after I left but I wanted to give her time.
I went up to the room to change and get to the office.
I got to the firm not long and went straight to the finance office, concerning the lawsuit against us I needed to know how well we're doing with finances, I was greeted by my assistant before going there but my grandpa beat me to it already.
"Jason, I didn't think you'd be here," he said to me.
"I work here, why is everyone surprised to see me today." I ignored him walking past him. "Can I have the monthly report at my office, I need to know how we're doing this week," I said to the guy working the office today before glaring at my Pa one more time and left.
I know he'll be busting through my office anytime soon but I specifically told my assistant not to let anyone in, no matter what but I had a feeling he'll get pass her. I was going through my emails when an invite popped up on the screen.
Wow Belle never cease to amaze me, but it's for her swimwear launch so I don't blame her, plus I think a party should get my mind off everything going on, with the break in and then the kidnapping and there's Ronnie on the other hand who is stalking both me and my girlfriend and I don't even know how to connect all this together.
Yesterday after leaving the house with the stunt grandpa pulled, I wanted to go see Belle immediately but I ended up going to the bar and things got messed up, I ended up getting kicked out of the bar and ended up driving to her place. I can't believe I gave up being sober all these years and now am pretty sure she's mad at me.
I was going through my thoughts when a message came from my line with an unknown number.
Glad we reached an agreement.

I was trying to put my finger around it, could it be the kidnappers or what, this just added more things to figure out on my list.
