Give a Reason



Chapter 29 - Lost and Found



"You know its really interesting how a 17 year old girl would be interested in opera, despite her history as an actress." Jason stayed on the stairs. "Coincidentally the boy of her dreams is there too. How are you William? Still alive I see."

"What's that supposed to mean Jason?" Meredith snapped at him. He gave a cruel and weak laugh.

"I warned you Meredith." He said. "Chances are they already know he's alive. I'd watch your back William."

"Who is this guy Meredith?" William asked her. Meredith sighed.

"Jason who know William, William may I introduce the biggest royal asshole I have ever met."

"Oh Meredith I offered you everything..."

"Meredith?"
