Chapter 101 - This… No… Why…
Some of the guests who got tired of the drama started to leave. Amongst them were Pia and Caleb too.
Daryn\'s facial expressions darkened. He stepped forward but Dawn stopped him. She wanted him to continue speaking to know what he had in mind.
A growl left Daryn. He wanted to smother his face.
Jason continued, "You guys thought that I wouldn\'t take it back? I have been keeping a tab on it for a long time. Why do you think that good-for-nothing game was floated on the Internet a month back when you had better ones in your repertoire?" He bared his teeth. Niall walked up to him and stared at Dawn. "It was because I wanted it." Jason looked at Daryn and an evil grin spread on his face. "I was controlling your company from the outside."
"Oh really?" Dawn interrupted. "You are so clever Jason."
"Yes! And you are so stupid Dawn," Jason chuckled. "You scolded the Vice President of the company to remove the game and launch the new one?" He laughed at her and Niall joined him.
"Well, we did launch a new game," Dawn replied.
"But that was just a face wash!" He couldn\'t stop laughing. He had made such a fool out of the Silvers and Dawn. "The new game is full of bugs. It was all in my control. Your company launched yet another game with bugs." He stopped laughing and now stared at Dawn. "Do you know what is going to happen now? Hmm?"
Dawn raised her eyebrow. "What?"
"Tsk, tsk. You think you are so clever and that you saved the company?" Niall said in a sarcastic tone. "The new game has so many bugs that the users are going to leave you very soon. Your reputation is going to tumble down."
Jason cut in, "The day you launched the new game, I had moved for a hostile takeover on the basis that you broke the trust of the users and that you people are launching one buggy game after the other only to collect their money." He paused and licked his lips. "I have sent the reports to the concerned authority. Now wait for them to slap a case against you. You cheated your users." He chortled. "The moment that happens, I am going to stake a claim. I will become the CEO of The Jupiter Inc. It was my idea after all."
"You bastard!" Suddenly Maya shouted from across the hall. This was the time to intervene and gain back her trust. "You went after Daryn. You lowly neotide! How dare you? I thought that this was just between the two neotides, but you dare to attack upon Daryn\'s territory?" She walked up till she was in front of them. She looked at Daryn with pained expressions and said, "I am so sorry baby. I didn\'t know that Jason had done this to you. I will make sure that he is punished. And I will also make sure that this filthy vixen, Dawn, who tried to ruin our lives with her antics, gets her due. Now do you see what she was up to? I was right to order the killings of these filthy neotides." She spat towards Dawn.
Dawn stepped forward. This was so epic that she didn\'t want to stop it from happening. Maya was behaving strangely, no, idiotically. And Jason? He was the same hot-tempered, useless jerk with only two brain cells that were devoid of oxygen. He reminded her of ox with horns. "Are you done?" she asked.
Jason and Niall glared at her, at her cool demeanor. She wasn\'t rattled even a single bit. She sighed and shook her head. "Let me start from the beginning." She paused and smiled. "The first thing that we did was to keep a watch on the VP. After the fiasco he had done, only a foolish man would let him go. It was easy to trace that he was your inside man. So we threatened to axe him if he didn\'t go according to our plan. And our plan was simple – to get competent people to check the game. The bugs were fixed in a day and it was launched by the next day." Her smile broadened. "And all this happened while I was signing papers all day for the complete takeover of The Neo Software."
Jason\'s face was ashen. The VP never mentioned this development to him.
She glanced at Niall. "There hasn\'t been a single complaint from our users and in fact we have received fantastic responses. The number of downloads almost doubled up." She allowed herself a chuckle. As if understanding Jason\'s confusion, Dawn replied, "Mr. Jason you should\'ve checked the stats before this spectacle. And the fact that you haven\'t shows your weak vision and performance. The VP was working according to our instructions, not yours! And we asked to stay quiet about our plan, else he would have to bear the consequences." She paused, brought her hands near her face and brushed her thumb over her fingernails. "It is a different thing that he has been served with his job termination letter already."
"Yesterday, I had appointed Ms. Dawn Wyatt as the CEO of The Jupiter Inc.," Daryn\'s heavy voice boomed. He spoke like the tough CEO he was.
Jason froze. It was a double whammy. Now Dawn was the CEO of both the companies, which he once owned. He paled. He opened his mouth to speak but he fumbled, "This… No… Why…" He swallowed rapidly as his breath became uneven. The ground beneath him shook and his knees became wobbly. An uncontrollable shudder passed through his body. He had planned with Maya to bring down Daryn about the gaming company but when Dawn appeared with him, he couldn\'t think of a better time to pull her down. This was a plan he only shared with Niall the moment he saw Dawn.
Niall held his hand tightly to support him. She turned her head to the side and closed her eyes. She was about to give Dawn the worst nightmare of her life when the table turned to suddenly that she didn\'t have the time to balance. Once again Dawn had bolted her. A flash of memories crossed her mind when she was trying to bring her down in the University and how she had retaliated. She opened her eyes and then looked at Dawn. There was a smile on her face – the winner smile. She wanted to smother her, to kill her.
"You bitch," Maya shouted. "Aren\'t you happy with what you did? You have brought down the reputation of Silvers. Why don\'t you just leave?"
Dawn walked up to Maya and slapped her hard across the face. Maya\'s face turned to the right as she stumbled a little. Her left cheek burned with pain and she covered it with her hand. A growl emanated from Dawn\'s chest. "You need to leave. If I see you again, don\'t blame me if you get hurt. And oh, by the way, don\'t call Daryn \'baby\'. I am his mate. That right belongs to me."
For the first time, Daryn\'s eyes turned soft. She declared that she was his mate. Mate. MATE. He walked behind her, turned her and cupped her cheeks in his large hands. "Mate," he whispered and leaned in to kiss her passionately. She buried her fingers in his hair as his mouth met hers and claimed those lips. "Dawn, guide me how to love you better."
