    “What <i>are </i>you smiling about?”


    He asked her in a yful tone.

    “Ms. Rouleau<i>, </i><i>fighting </i><i>airport </i><i>security </i><i>is </i><i>federal </i><i>offense</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>

    <i>Jameson’s </i><i>POV</i>:


    The day of the Bio–Summit, every big name in the medical field was arriving at the Courte‘ Hotel. Jameson along with Anna, Sophie, and Jason had just arrived. It had been almost a year since that disastrous g. Jameson’spany took a massive hit, as did his reputation. His VP Edward had quit, and ra ran off to Osha. He could still remember that day, learning she’d left LexU.


    Jameson arrived at the school demanding to withdraw her. The receptionist was confused; ra had already left.


    “<i>Mr. </i><i>Granger</i><i>, </i><i>I’m </i>sorry <i>but </i>I <i>can’t </i>withdraw ra <i>she-</i>”


    “<i>Do </i><i>you </i><i>know </i>who I am!!! I’m Jameson Granger!!! <i>LexU’s </i>most famous Biochemist<i>! </i><i>I </i>said <i>withdraw </i><i>her </i><i>enrollment </i>now!<i>” </i>


    As Jameson yelled, the dean overheard themotion. Coming out of his office, Woodcrest walked directly over to Jameson demanding to know what this was all about.


    <i>“</i><i>I </i>am <i>trying </i><i>to </i>cancel the enrollment of my daughter ra, and <i>this </i><i>fool </i>of <i>a </i><i>receptionist </i><i>is </i><i>denying </i><i>my </i><i>request</i>! <i>Does </i><i>she </i>not know who I am!<i>” </i>


    Woodcrest was confused, did Jameson not know his daughter was already gone, regardless, he wasn’t about to let Jameson disrespect his employees.


    <i>“</i><i>Jameson</i><i>, </i>you need <i>to </i><i>calm </i>down-”


    <i>“</i><i>I </i><i>will </i>not <i>calm </i><i>down</i><i>! </i><i>I </i><i>want </i><i>her </i><i>expelled </i><i>now</i>!<i>” </i>


    <i>“</i><i>She’s </i><i>already </i><i>gone</i><i>!!!</i>”


    Woodcrest barked those words to Jameson who now stood in shock. Lowering his tone, he demanded an exnation.


    “<i>What </i><i>the </i><i>hell </i><i>are </i>you <i>talking </i><i>about</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>


    Woodcrest was now irritated.


    :


    <i>“</i><i>Look </i><i>Jameson</i><i>, </i><i>I </i>don’t <i>what </i><i>the hell </i><i>is </i><i>going </i>on between <i>you </i><i>and </i><i>your </i><i>daughter</i><i>, </i><i>but ra </i><i>transferred </i>to <i>Osha </i>on a <i>three </i><i>year </i><i>program</i>. <i>She’s </i><i>not </i><i>here </i><i>anymore</i>. <i>And </i><i>you </i><i>have </i><i>no </i><i>pull </i>


    <i>there</i><i>. </i>Go <i>home</i><i>.</i>”


    Woodcrest walked away, leaving Jameson confused.


    Back home, he was fuming.


    “What <i>do </i>you mean <i>she </i><i>left</i><i>? </i><i>Where </i><i>did </i><i>she </i><i>go</i><i>!</i>”


    Anna looked at Jameson inplete shock. Sophie and Jason were also confused.


    “To <i>Osha</i><i>! </i><i>To </i><i>fucking </i><i>Osha </i><i>State </i><i>University</i><i>! </i><i>The </i><i>top </i><i>fucking </i><i>school </i><i>in </i><i>the </i><i>entire </i><i>world</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>


    85


    Sophie was livid, she felt like she was eating crushed ss. She’d relished on the fact that her father was getting ra kicked out of school, and now, not only would that no longer happen, but once again, she was upstaging her in academics.


    The year went by in gloom, Jameson was losing funding left and right, after the g, everyone was afraid to cross Taylor. And then one day, Jason came to him with a huge smile holding a book in his hand.


    ra’s <b>Journal</b>.


    What was in it was nothing short of amazing.


    “That <i>little </i><i>bitch</i><i>! </i><i>She </i><i>really </i><i>created </i><i>a </i><i>cure </i>for <i>the </imon <i>cold </i>and didn’t tell me!!!”


    Suddenly Edward’s words began to haunt him. ‘<i>You </i>still <i>don’t </i>know <i>why </i><i>he’s </i>interested in


    <i>her</i><i>.</i><i>‘ </i>


    Jameson was furious until Jason came up with the idea of stealing it.


    “No <i>one </i><i>knows </i><i>about </i>this <i>right </i><i>now </i>but <i>us</i><i>! </i><i>We </i>can <i>use </i><i>this </i><i>to </i>win <i>the </i>summit and get <i>the </i><i>funding </i><i>back</i><i>. </i><i>With </i><i>this</i>, <i>you </i>could surpass <i>Taylor</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>


    And thus, a n was formed, Jameson nned to present ra’s equations at the summit tonight as his own.
