Chapter 343 - 343. Let Jessie Win.

It was early morning, but not to early for the three people crowding around another tapping away on a keypad, well four if you count the last person standing a few steps away diligently watching with hopeful eyes. "Can you do it?" Jessie asked, unable to continue this situation of never ending silence.

"Jessie? What did I say? Don't speak you're messing up my flow." Lenora replied, causing the other woman to pout.

"Geez I was just asking..." she added quickly, not being at the receiving end of Lenora's reaction, a sharp, quick glare. 

Noticing was was about to happen immediately Jamie put and end to it.

"Can we please not start this right now? Lenora focus and um... why don't you just go do something to occupy your mind Jessie? It is quite torturous waiting like this without any reassurances." He said, but he didn't think hs words of wisdom, stemming from the real need to keep them from fighting so early in their day would be taken badly by both women. 

But what better to bring to enemies together than a mutual enemy. "Oh so what you want reassurances?" She glanced at Jamie then turning to Jessie "What is that supposed to mean? I'm not doing enough?" Lenora huffed angrily. 

"Do I look like I need reassurance? Especially from someone like her!" Jessie jutted her chin in Lenora's direction.

Lenora scoffed, "what were you even thinking? Giving her reassurance? Tch. Just look at what she saying."

"I do think he was wrong to suggest that but only because you suck at thinking of anyone but yourself." Jessie spat back.

They didn't make up, they didn't come together to bash a common enemy, their animosity ran to deep to consider antagonising any one but each other. 

At once the tapping in the keyboards stopped and Lenora turned to Jessie, "I think of anyone but myself? And you? Do you think you are such a saint? You are fucking bitch and I was the only one that ever noticed it, not like all the other cowardly reporters that refused to speak up about it!"

Jessie rolled her eyes with a scoff, tilting her head towards the other woman, "oh so you think you aren't cowardly that's it? Wow, then you really are delusional. Seeing and reading into things that aren't there. You really a just an attention hogging whore."

As the fight was going to enter the place of violence but men grabbed their partners and took them to the other sides of the room to cool off.

"No today Lennie" Jamie scolded. 

"What? I was on my own and she started this!" Lenora huffed. 

"I understand but you shouldn't react to this, remember everything I said the last time?" Jamie asked.

And reluctantly she repeated his previous remarks, "I shouldn't react to the slightest provocation."

"Yes, and you were doing so well too. I don't know what's happened." He commented and at the same time the other two simultaneously spoke. 

"It's because it's her!" They said, shooting glares at each other. 

"So what? Are you going to give up everything because you hate the reporter?" Jason asked.

"Of course not!" Jessie huffed.

"Good now be a good girl and go apologise" he lifted a finger to stop her from talking, when he was sure she wouldn't say anything he continued "for interrupting her."

And in little time the tapping began again, and as Jessie was about to make another comment on how she boasted she could do it in thirty minutes Jason took her out of the room. "Okay you get a time out." 

"What? Why?" 

"Because you are being such a baby about this, now stay here watch a movie I'll tell you once it's-"

"I'm in!" She yelled happily.

"You're in?" Jessie dashed inside the room.

"Yeah, look here." Shs pointed at the computer, "but I have to keep programming in order to keep the wall open. If I stop attending to this then it will shut back up and this time it would be even harder to open it."

"Then we have no time to waste. Here is the hard drive, an hour should be enough for people to see it right?" Jason asked her.

"I guess, but the most I can do is Forty five minutes." She replied. 

"Then I'll make it trend." Jessie replied, grabbing her phone she logged into her celebrity account that she has shut off because of all the hate comments and post the link on her profile. Calling Krystal as well she informed her of the situation. 

***************************************

Blood was going to flow!!!

Patricia was utterly and outrageously livid, and it was obvious with every step she took in those black shiny sleek pumps she rattled the ground a s terrified passersby with the fierce look on her face and the intensity of her eyes.

Scowling at a staring couple that gawked at her when she came to a stop. "What? What are you looking at!?" She yelled at them.

Both man and woman, without further hesitation turned around and walked away.

"Open the fucking door Lenora, I know you are in there, don't try to fucking fool me!" She screamed.

When response wasn't forth coming she began to bang on the door. There was only one person with skill enough to allow that stupid information leak and it was Lenora. Patricia bit her lips in itter annoyance, that bitch! "How dare she betray me?" Patricia asked herself. 

"Open this damn door right now!" She screamed, but Lenora wasn't there to answer and with every single second spent that information leaks to at least fifty thousand people. She was doomed, she was angry and she was suffocating. But most of all she was incredibly afraid.

This would ruin everything, everything single thing and she had no idea how to stop it. How?! She thought, after figuring out that Tony didn't have the hard drive she knew that the information was still safe. Perhaps killing him was a bad idea? But even then she wasn't the one that killed him! 

Unless... "fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck!!" She cursed, turning back on her heels she lost all her elegance and broke into a soft sprint. She couldn't handle this on her own, she shouldn't handle this on her own. The entire Lee family was in jeopardy just like her. So she needed help on this.. And she was going to get it, she'd rather die than let Jessie win.
