Chapter 343 343. Jason Ending The Black Command
"You look stunning." Jason slowly came beside Rose and spoke in a low voice.
"We heard that, second sister!" Harry said from behind, making Rose blush.
Three years ago, a lot of things changed. Everyone who survived the battle understood how precious this life was. They didn't want to give up on opportunities they still had.
*3 YEARS AGO*
Once they all had safely returned to country B, Jason had given up on the assasination job.
Kizy was already no longer on the team, and he knew that Victor would do the same once he was well.
Victor, who was found unconscious near the seashore, was in coma for the past one month and everyone was hoping for his best recovery.
Jason would visit him everyday but won't stay for long, feeling bad for Victor as well as Nicole who literally lived in the hospital now, staying along with Victor.
Nicole's wound had healed well after a week, but she hadn't stepped out of the hospital since she entered right back after returning from the Imperial nation.
Sia had treated her, and the doubt they had that Nicole might not conceive a child was no longer the problem. She was as healthy as she could be.
But she had turned less bubbly, less of herself as she stayed with Victor all the time. Doctors had given them a time limit of three months. If Victor was to stay in coma after that, his chances of recovery were less.
She looked pale and weaker, but she still continued, knowing she needed to stay strong, not for her but for Victor.
"Get up quickly! You have to meet my parents after this. I think we will need a lot of preparations to convince them. So better you start preparing ahead-" Nicole said as a tear rolled down her face.
Kizy would also drop by every two or three days, but her bump had started becoming visible and the overprotective husband tagging along with her only made it more difficult.
Hence everyone suggested Kizy to stay home and rest as Markus won't even allow her to the office.
Instead Markus tried to come home early everyday, and brought some of his documents home so that Kizy could work on them, knowing staying home without doing much would bore her to death.
But thankfully Kizy had started a lot of things for her and the baby like yoga, meditation, reading books, listening to good music etc and thus kept herself busier.
Today, Jason as usual had gone to visit Victor.
"How is he doing?" He asked Nicole, who had somehow become friends over the past month.
"Great as always. Today we read three chapters of his favourite book together." She said with a smile.
"Good." Jason said, feeling happy for Victor who had found such a loyal partner for himself.
"Nicole, I had a favour to ask." Jason said.
"You don't have to be so formal with me Jason. Just tell me and I 'll do it." Nicole said.
"I wanted to have some private talk with Victor. Is it okay if I stay with him for sometime? I have also brought Diamond and Markus with me. They are waiting outside. Maybe you can chat with them till-" Jason was still speaking when Nicole cut him off.
"That's completely fine Jason. Go on and chat, I will be waiting outside. Anyways I needed a cup of coffee, maybe I can order my brother around to bring some more snacks along with that." Nicole said, trying to be as normal as possible.
"Sure." Jason gave her a small smile, before eventually sitting beside Victor as Nicole exited.
"Hi man! Seems like you are enjoying your life. Having a girlfriend to accompany you all time and visitors. Good goin… going." A tear rolled down his face, no more able to keep up the pretence.
"Wake up quickly now. You don't know how I face myself in the mirror every morning, blaming myself for not being able to be by your side and save you from the blast… back then." Jason said and paused, trying to bring his emotions back to normal before he could speak whatever he was supposed to after this.
"I am terminating your contract along with Rose and Harry. From today onwards, the Black Command would be history. I no longer want to put all your lives at risk." Jason said.
"I am here to inform you of my plans first. Because you were there for me, always. And I can not have a new beginning without telling you." Jason paused.
"I have decided to start up a security company. The only thing I have done all my life is taking missions and putting my life at risk. Maybe I can use it in some different form now.
I am also going to offer the men working under us to join the company. I don't have a solid plan so I will be taking Markus's help for the same. But I want you to be by my side when I launch this new project. Get well soon, Victor." Jason said, pushing back the lump that was forming in his throat before he left the VIP room.
Kizy didn't say anything about Jason's red eyes, though she felt bad for him. She could see that Jason had suddenly lost his pillar and must be feeling lonely deep down.
Jason nodded at Nicole who was having small talks with Kizy and Markus. The couple visited Victor before leaving with Jason who was also living at their house.
"Diamond, Markus. I would like to discuss something with you both." Jason said once they returned from hospital.
"What is it?" Kizy asked.
"I plan to end the Black Command." Jason said.
"But Jason we-" Kizy tried to protest but Jason cut her off.
"I have already terminated your contract and I will do so with the rest of the members soon. I can not ask them to risk their lives till their deaths, Diamond. They are all young and have an entire life ahead. If they think carefully, they can actually start a new life which would be much more normal than the ones they have been living till now." Jason finished.
"Then what do you intend to do?" Kizy asked again, feeling a little heavy.
