i tried new way of writing pls let me know if any changes are needed
The black SUV slowed as it approached the massive iron gates of the mansion.
Jay sat in the back seat, her fingers resting lightly on her phone while her eyes observed everything through the tinted window.
Inside the car…
There was absolutely zero peace.
Jay was sitting with one leg folded under her, scrolling through reports on her tablet.
Next to her—
Percy Santiago was half lying across the seat like a bored cat, sunglasses on, chewing gum loudly.
Then suddenly—
He gasped dramatically.
"JAY."
Jay didn't even look up.
"Hmm."
Percy leaned closer.
"Do you think I look hotter in London lighting?"
Jay slowly lifted her eyes.
"Percy."
"Yes?"
"You've asked that question seven times in the last thirty minutes."
He nodded proudly.

"Percy."
"Yes?"
"You've asked that question seven times in the last thirty minutes."
He nodded proudly.
"And the answer has been correct every time."
Jay sighed.
"You are impossible."
Percy grinned.
"Wrong. I'm irreplaceable."
He suddenly grabbed the mirror from the car door and started fixing his hair.
"Look at this face."
Jay rubbed her temple.
"Oh my god."
Percy continued admiring himself.
"If I was born in medieval times, kingdoms would have started wars over me."
Jay finally looked at him.
"No Percy."
He blinked.
"They would have started wars to shut you up."
The driver coughed to hide a laugh.
Percy gasped.
"Betrayal."
He pointed dramatically.
"Driver. Remember this momen
Jay smirked.
But her phone suddenly vibrated.
Keifer.
Her expression softened instantly.
She answered.
Before she could even speak—
Keifer's voice came through the phone.
"Send me your location."
Jay rolled her eyes lightly.
"I'm already reached mansion.and will reach watson empire at noon"
Silence.
Then his voice came again, lower.
"You left without me."
Jay leaned back in her seat.
"You knew the plan."
"I don't like the plan."
Percy leaned closer to the phone.
"Hello jealous babbyyyyyy."
Jay shoved his face away.
Keifer's voice went dangerously quiet
Keifer spoke again.
"Why are you in the same car?"
Percy answered before Jay could.
"Because fate wants us together."
Jay slapped his arm.
"Shut up."
Keifer inhaled slowly.
Jay could practically hear the patience leaving his body.
"Jay."
"Yes?"
"Give Percy the phone."
Percy's eyes lit up.
"Oh this is going to be fun."
Jay handed him the phone reluctantly.
Percy leaned back comfortably.
"Speak, rich prince."
Silence.
Then Keifer said very calmly—
"If you annoy her again I will personally break your face"
Percy blinked.
Then burst out laughing.
"Oh my god you are so dramatic."
Jay rubbed her forehead.
Percy continued talking.
"Relax Watson. I'm just escorting your wife."
Jay choked.
"I AM NOT—"
Keifer interrupted.
"My wife?"
Percy shrugged.
"Future tense."
Jay snatched the phone back.
"Both of you stop."
She lowered her voice slightly.
"Keifer, listen."
He didn't respond.
Jay knew that silence.
He wasn't angry.
He was worrying.
Which somehow made it worse.
"We discussed this," she said softly. "If people see us arriving together, they will connect things too quickly."
Another pause.
Then Keifer finally spoke.
"I know."
Jay smiled faintly.
"But you still hate it."
"Yes."
Percy loudly whispered from the side.
"He's pouting."
Jay pushed him again.
"Percy."
Keifer ignored Percy completely.
"Just send me your location when you reach."
"I will."
"And mrs watson?"
"Yes?"
His voice softened.
"Be careful."
Jay's chest warmed.
"I always am."
keifer"jay call me when you reach watson empire. i need to make sure you are safe"
jay "ok mr watson"
keifer "love you jay until scientist find end of universe"
jay "lovee...."
"you"
The call ended.
Percy immediately leaned over the seat.
"You two are disgusting."
Jay looked at him.
"You are jealous."
He grinned.
"who me percy the great never "
The car turned through the massive iron gates of the Watson estate.
Even Percy let out a low whistle.
"Damn."
The s&j estate wasn't just a mansion.
It was practically a private kingdom.
Historic stone buildings.
Perfect gardens.
Security that could rival military bases.
And today—
It was about to host the most powerful gathering in the corporate world.
Percy sat up straighter.
"Alright."
Jay closed her tablet.
"Game time."
Jay leaned back against the long wooden table in the ACES mansion study, one leg folded over the other, her fingers slowly tapping packet of chips. The large windows behind her showed the evening sky turning deep blue, the city lights beginning to glow far below. Papers, digital tablets, and project files were scattered across the table.
Percy sat opposite her—but sitting was a very generous word.
He was half on the chair, half leaning on the table, spinning a pen between his fingers like he had too much energy trapped inside him.
Typical Percy.
Jay sighed softly.
"Can you sit properly for five minutes?"
Percy grinned.
"No."
He dropped into the chair sideways, resting his chin on the backrest.
"But I can think properly. That counts."
Jay shook her head but a small smile appeared.
Chaos.
That was Percy.
Where Jay's chaos and Percy's chaos was loud, dramatic, and slightly unhinged.
And somehow… it worked.
She opened another file.
"This is the real reason for the project."
Percy leaned forward again.
"What?"
Jay looked directly at him.
"Secure communication."
Percy's expression slowly turned serious.
Jay continued.
"If Kaizer, Cyrus, and that man try to manipulate the corporate network…"
Percy nodded slowly.
"They'll use communication channels."
Jay tapped the screen.
"But if we control the channels…"
Percy finished.
"They can't move without us knowing."
Silence filled the room for a moment.
Percy exhaled slowly.
"Jay…"
He leaned back again.
"This isn't just business."
Jay looked at him calmly.
"No."
Percy finished quietly.
"It's war preparation."
Jay didn't deny it.
michael rubbed his face.
"You know what the funniest part is?"
Jay raised an eyebrow.
"What?"
Percy laughed softly.
"The entire world thinks you're dead."
Jay didn't react.
Percy leaned closer, grinning.
"And meanwhile you're building a communication empire behind the scenes."
Jay simply said,
"That's the advantage of being underestimated."
Percy suddenly snapped his fingers.
"WAIT."
Jay sighed.
"What now?"
Percy pointed dramatically at the files.
"The board meeting."
Jay nodded.
"Yes."
Percy grinned wickedly.
"They're planning to destroy ACES projects there."
Jay looked amused.
"Let them try."
Percy's grin widened.
"They think you're dead."
Jay nodded again.
"And that is exactly why they will lose."
Percy leaned back in his chair again.
"But I still have one complaint."
Jay looked at him.
"What?"
Percy sighed dramatically.
"I'm doing all this genius planning with you…"
Jay narrowed her eyes.
"And?"
Percy smirked.
"And Keifer is the one who gets the emotional reunion."
Jay threw another pen at him.
Percy ducked.
He laughed loudly.
"Relax, relax."
Jay shook her head.
"You're impossible."
sam leaned back again.
"True."
Then he looked at the files again.
"But this project…"
He nodded slowly.
"This could change everything."
Jay looked toward the window where the city lights were glowing.
"hehe ofcc yes."
michael asked quietly.
"Are you ready for what comes next?"
Jay's voice was calm.
"I've been ready for a long time."
samuel studied her for a moment.
Then he smiled slightly.
"Good."
adam stood up again, stretching.
"Because once this starts…"
Jay finished.
"There's no going back."
Percy grinned.
"Exactly."
Then he grabbed another file and dropped back into the chair again.
"Alright Alpha."
Jay raised an eyebrow.
"Don't call me that."
Percy smirked.
"Too late."he tapped the project file."Let's build an empire.
The boardroom of the Watson estate looked less like a meeting room and more like a battlefield disguised in luxury.
A table of dark oak stretched across the center, polished so perfectly that the chandeliers above reflected like cold stars trapped in wood.
Thirty seats.Thirty empires.
Thirty predators pretending to be businessmen.
And today…They were hunting.But none of them knew the hunter had already entered the forest.
The hall had changed.
Not in decoration.Not in music.
But in air.
It felt heavier now.
Like something unpleasant had entered quietly and decided to stay.
Keifer felt it before he saw it.
His fingers tightened slightly around the glass he wasn't even drinking from.
Across the hall…
Kaiser Watson stood.
Tall. Perfect posture. Immaculate suit.
The kind of man who always looked composed.
One by one the companies took their seats.
Watson Group.
Braleston Industries.
Hanamitchi Holdings.
Santiago Logistics.
ShineSummit Pharma.
Titan Legal.
A&M Tech.
Fernandes International.
LRR Corp.
And several others. just s&j , italian and russian mafia and brown corporation left
Then—
Two figures approached.
Raphael.
And Ava.
Their presence shifted the atmosphere instantly.
Not loud.
Not dramatic.
But controlled.
Elegant.
Dangerous.
They stopped a few steps away.
Ava's expression was distant.
Almost bored.
Raphael looked even colder.
Someone whispered quietly.
"The Watson cousins."
Technically true.
Their mother was a Watson.
But the siblings never acknowledged it publicly.
Raphael spoke again.
"We have no interest in Watson family disputes."
His tone made the word Watson sound unpleasant.
Ava folded her arms.
"We came here for the event."
"Nothing more."
Keifer's eyes narrowed slightly.
The doors opened again.
Two men walked in.
Kaizer.
And Jay's stepfather. behind them cyrus and yuri
But Keifer knew better.
Behind that polished image lived a man who could rot anything he touched.
Their eyes met.
And just like that—
The room disappeared.
For a moment it was just them.
Father.
Son.
War.
Neither spoke.
Neither moved.
But the tension stretched like a pulled wire.
Kaiser's lips curved slightly.
Not a smile.
Something worse.
Amusement.
Keifer's jaw tightened.
He had expected this.
He knew Kaiser wouldn't stay away forever.
Especially now.
Not when the entire world believed Jay was dead.
Across the hall Kaiser tilted his head slightly.
Studying Keifer.
Evaluating.
Like a businessman inspecting damaged property.
And Keifer hated that look.
God he hated that look.
Because Kaiser never saw people.
Only assets.
And losses.
And right now—
Keifer was both.
A grieving brother.
And a weak heir.
Exactly how Kaiser liked it.
Kaiser slowly walked toward him.
Each step calm.
Controlled.
Deliberate.
People instinctively moved aside.
Not out of respect.
Out of discomfort.
Some men carried authority.
Kaiser carried something colder.
Calculation.
When he finally stopped in front of Keifer the silence between them became suffocating.
"Well," Kaiser said smoothly.
His voice carried easily.
Loud enough for nearby guests to hear.
"My son finally decided to show his face."
Keifer didn't answer.
He just stared.
Cold.
Kaiser's eyes flickered with mild irritation.
"You look… exhausted," he continued.
"Grief does that."
The word lingered.
Grief.
Like poison.
Keifer's knuckles whitened.
He knew exactly what Kaiser was doing.
Testing him.
Provoking him.
Waiting for him to snap.
But Kaiser wasn't finished
And her stepfather.
They were whispering.
Plotting.
They thought Jay was dead.
They thought ACES was weakened.
They thought Keifer was grieving and unstable.
Which meant—
They thought now was the perfect time to strike.
Her stepfather finally raised his hand.
"Before partnerships are decided," he said smoothly, "perhaps we should address some concerns."
The room quieted.
Keifer's eyes narrowed slightly.
"What concerns?"
Her stepfather smiled politely.
"Concerns regarding certain companies'… reputations."
The screen suddenly changed.
News headlines appeared.
False reports.
Allegations.
Illegal weapons.
Corrupt security training.
S&J Corporation.
Titan Legal.
A&M Tech.
ShineSummit Pharma.
Exactly as expected.
Kaizer stood.
"Companies involved in public safety should be held to higher standards."
He gestured toward the screen.
"Especially those claiming to protect women."
The implication hung in the air.
Accusing S&J of hypocrisy.
