Chapter 1

"I love Jazzelle, Ryan." The words hung in the air like a challenge.

Ryan's surprise was palpable, but Ash continued, his voice steady. "If you're not serious about her, then leave her alone. I can give her all the happiness and love she deserves."

With that, Ash turned to leave, but Ryan's cry stopped him. "I won't give her up either! Do you think you can take her away just because you bluntly confess?"

Ash's grin was still plastered on his face as he said, "Then let's have a fair shot at winning her heart. Whoever Jazzelle chooses will be her decision."

Ryan's palm landed on Ash's shoulder, his fingers pressing into the muscle. "I won't show mercy, little brother, not when it comes to my fiancée."

Ash's grin never wavered. "And I won't back down, favorite brother or not, if it's about Jazzelle."

Ryan elves and Ash theil, one the five founders of fiv-E-agles. Fiv-E-agles is a import and export company that started with a small courier company. All the five founder of the company were silver spoon children however they wanted to establish their own startup. Sons of well known businessmen and politicians were popular enough to get in spotlight which made it a little easy for them to catch market attention. 5 years of hardwork and intelligence brought them a fortune and they became a well known on this industry. The Fiv-E-agle is not just a goods import export company but also helps artist and students to go to their dream destination for their career.

All the five members have always been on good terms with each other. They are completely different from each other in the matter of hobbies, likes-dislikes, and even majors in university but still they have always been supporting to each other.

Ash and Ryan too have never even argued before. Unlike other members who always had some small conflict between but Ash always loved Ryan a lot more. Ryan too cherished him as a younger brother.

Even now when Ash confessed that he loves Jazzelle, who is Ryan's fiancée, Ryan doesn't have envy of hatred towards him. Though he is jealous and angry as well as a little insecure because he doesn't know who does Jazzelle truly love.

February 14 2007

Today, Jazzelle is very excited because it’s the first day of her internship. She has finally made it. She can’t believe her father allowed her to come to this city and even allowed her to do the job. As the youngest and the only daughter of the household, Jazzelle is very pampered and spoiled by her parents. They wanted her to stay at home enjoy her life to its fullest but her expectations from her life were different. She wanted a struggling and busy life. Rather than being idle, she prefered working. That's why she asked her parents to let her go to another city and do an internship. The way she can explore the world and become independent.

My name is Jazzelle. I am a bachelor of Arts student. a very simple girl but not my personality.

I’m grumpy but sweet too. I have a small face and long hair. I am quite tall. Maybe 5’6. I am 20 years old girl who is good at almost everything.

Exaggerated . I like learning and I want to learn. Although I am too lazy to do continue it after learning once. Like once I learnt sewing when I was in high school. It was winter vacation and I had nothing to do so joined a sewing class. After that winter vacation, I never touched the sewing machine again. So This kind of a girl I am.

I have just completed my second year in college. And now I am here… in Denver Colorado for my internship.

It’s a very big thing for me because till now I was living a pampered and a princess’ life. If I did need something, I only needed to say it and my brothers will bring it to me. It’s very good, isn’t it? But it makes me think of myself as a puppet or a lame person who can’t do anything by herself.

I have two elder brothers who adore me a lot. My father and mother also dot on me as I am their only daughter after two sons. Before me, they had a daughter but unfortunately, that baby left the world before she could see it. Maybe this is the reason they are protective of me.

I’ve worked very, very, very hard to get here. I blackmailed my father. No, I mean I emotionally blackmailed him. And I accepted his conditions and now finally Jazzelle is here!

Let's see how my first day of office will go.

My department is HR. Since my majors are sociology and psychology I could only apply for either HR or PR.

Th manager of my department is bringing me to meet my colleagues. I am looking around and observing my surroundings. There are very few people here as it's a new company but as a start-up one, they already have pretty enough employees. All the floors are well furnished with glass flooring and the interior of the office is also quite good. the systems are also highly rated. The founders are sure silver spoon kids.

We are on the third floor. The HR department is here. Everyone is working on their desk. Although it's my first at a place like this yet I am not nervous. As a child I was always brilliant and praised and I never escaped that pampered cozy comfy zone of my village and home so being nervous or getting afraid is something I never experienced.

I grip on my backpack and walk after the manager while looking around with a foolish smile on my face.

Here we are. The manager stops and claps to get everyone's attention. Everyone glances at the manager

" Guys! This is the new intern of our department. If you need any kind of help you can find her." Says the manager.

She looks at me as she is signalling me to come forward and introduce myself. I got her. I nod my head slightly with a smile and take a step forward.

“Hello! I am Jazzelle, a new intern in this department. I’ll be your colleague. Please take care of me! I'll work hard."

With such a bright smile and cheerful voice, I indeed made a good intro of myself. Everyone seems nice here. They all greet me and welcome me warmly.

“Hello!!”

“Hey!!”

“Welcome ”

A happy welcome cheer echoes on the floor.

The Manager turns around to me and says, “ Jazzelle, here is our department head. Ryan Alves."

So finally I am going to meet my department head and one of the founders of this company. He is standing behind me. I turn around with my bright smile and say

" Hello sir i am Jaz…….." after seeing him, I am stunned. The words aren't coming out. my eyes are widened, I'm afraid they'll pop out. I am gulping but trying to put on my best smile. Wait, what is this. I think we have met before.
