Its Too Late To Forgive

Chapter 52: 52. HAVEN'T PLAYED ENOUGH

Morris Industries:

One after the other, Morris Industries were loosing all it's contracts. Edward Morris, Jason's grandfather, was sitting on the chairman's chair at the round table conference. They were in between a tense meeting.

Since few weeks all the assigned tenders and partnership were getting canceled. Edward and Jason were unable to understand the reason behind it. Hence today's meeting was called which brought almost all the share holders and high level office dignitaries together in one chamber to deal with this matter.

"Can anyone please tell me what's going on?" Edward almost shouted.

"All the old partnership and contracts are collapsing, Why? Who is behind all this?" He asked.

"Grandfather, we are trying our best to find out. You, Please calm down first." Said Jason.

"Calm down... how can I calm down! My company has already moved down. The share market value has reduced. I am sure somebody is targeting us on purpose." Said Edward with anxiety.

" No one can dare to target us grandfather."

Jason spoke with confidence. Morris Industries were number 1 industry overseas and in China it stood on second number , right after Jackson's, which was lead by Henry. There was not much difference between the two Industries but Henry had an upper hand as his industry had already established it's empire in this country from last four decades where Jason had recently build his industry here.

"Sir, I may inform that we have recently found that all our lost contracts and partners have collaborated with the Jackson's." said Devis, chief secretary for Morris.

"With Jackson's? Is it really Henry's doing?? Have you offended Henry is any form???"

Asked Edward while looking at Jason. Jason thought about it. Except for the matter of Bella, both of them never argued. Even he doesn't understand why was Henry so obsessed for hurting Bella. Isn't she yet another girl from his club!

As Jason was engrossed in his thoughts, a handsome figure entered the room. The man carried all the grace of nobility and pride. Seeing the person who just entered, Edward was taken back for a second but then he gave his sincere smile and adoration and welcomed Henry.

Henry immediately walked upto Edward and greeted him with all due respect.

"How are you doing grandfather? It seems that age is trying to chase you but for sure you can not be caught that easily."

"You sweet mouth boy, come here and give grandfather a hug."

Edward genuinely liked Henry. Henry always called him grandfather for the fact that Edward and Henry's grandfather, Marcus Jackson , were close friends plus Jason and Henry were cousins so he always like to be called as grandfather by the children.

Even though Edward and Marcus were close friends , their nature and characters were very different.

Edward was down to earth and was very loyal man. He only loved his wife and spent his entire life loving her. Whereas Marcus was a nasty man. He had multiple affairs before marriage and many mistress after. Age of the woman was no criteria for him.

As far as Edward remembered his youngest mistress, Ellen, was of Henry's father Jack's univeristy mate. He remembers that he heard that Marcus initially raped that girl during the alumini ball dance day but later seeing that Marcus was showering her with unlimited jewelleries and money, she agreed to be his lover. She was a siren beauty and she took great advantage of it.

Hearing about this, Henry's grandmother broke completely. She confronted Marcus and latter did not refuse infact insulted her for being old, wrinkled face and boring. He even brought Ellen to stay in Jackson's villa. They took over the master bed and Gin , Henry's grandmother, was kicked out of the room.

Jack was studying in United States at that time and was unaware of all this. He moved out just 2 months ago. He knew nothing about his ex university mate and his father. Days went by and Gin became a victim of depression. Slowly slowly she was consumed completely by depression and eventually she died.

When Jack came to know about this, he broke all his ties with his father and claimed his father to be guilty of his mother's death. But Marcus was not very affective with this. He left Jackson villa and moved to another Mansion with Ellen. Eventhough he was staying with Ellen , he still continued his love affairs with other woman which did not go well with Ellen and eventually even she left him and went away.

Eventhough Marcus moved out of Jackson villa but he still holds a good number of shares in Jackson industries and grudge of insults that he faced from his son. Jack never treated him as his father after that hence Henry never treated him as a grandfather.

Edward welcomed Henry and asked him to have a seat next to him, opposite to Jason. After Henry became comfortable, Edward ordered for a tea. For a while they all spoke on general topics. Later after finishing the tea, Edward, with running around the bushes, asked directly.

"Henry, is something wrong? Has someone from Morris Industries offended you??"

"Not really grandfather Morris?"
