Jennine held her breath as he almost glided neare and stood before her. Two of the beautifulest big brown eyes Jennine had ever seen stared at her intently. Jennines heart raced just at his closeness. His aura drew her to him. She felt powerless. His full lips were serious as he studied her silently. Jennine blushed under his intent stare. Suddenly he offered his pale hand. Jennine shook his hand surprised to feel it was ice cold. He sat down at the head of the table. All of a sudden a group of servents appeared. Pouring wine into gold goblets and heaping their plates with steaming food they bowed and left the room. Jennine waited for the beautiful man to speak. "Im Michael" he finally said. Jennine liked the sound of his voice. "Do you live here Michael "?Jennine asked timidly. This man intimidated her though she was strongly attracted to him. Michael smiled. Jennine's heart leapt. His whole face lit up when he smiled.
The Michael Jackson estate is tired of waiting for Lloyd's of London to pay out on the $17.5 million "This Is it" insurance policy -- so they're going after Lloyd's in court ... demanding they pay up, stat.
Lloyd's of London originally issued the policy to cover potential losses for MJ's 2009 "This Is It" concerts -- but earlier this year, the company asked an L.A. court to declare the policy null and void ... claiming MJ lied about his medical history and drug addiction.
Lloyd's insists the policy "was restricted to losses resulting from accident only" -- pointing out Michael's official cause of death was "homicide."
But the estate is now on the offensive -- filing a cross-complaint, claiming MJ never intended to die, whether by homicide or not, so his death still qualifies as an accident.
But the estate isn't just settling for the original $17.5 million -- they also want punitive damages. FYI, suing for punitive damages often scares the crap out of insurance companies.

Today is the two-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death -- and the saga has played out like a soap opera about betrayal, jealousy, love, greed and redemption.
When TMZ broke the news, it triggered a flood of stories about Jackson's struggles with drugs, the doctors who enabled him, the mystery surrounding his death, a little known drug called propofol, a family war against Michael's estate, a full court press to erase Michael's debt, and a posthumous marketing campaign to rival Elvis.
Take a look at TMZ's timeline from the moment we found something was terribly wrong with Michael.

In a lost world
I hear your voice
Calling for heaven
Cast away
Caught in memories
You must believe
Love will come through
I’ll be your angel
In your darkest night
I’ll be your destiny
Waiting by your side
I’ll be the sunshine
When you’re feeling blue
I’m always here
For you
Comes a day
Heart on fire
When all your faith
Seems to be missing
Go your way
And you’ll find there
A land of hope
A land of dreams
I’ll be your angel
In your darkest night
I’ll be your destiny
Waiting by your side
I’ll be the sunshine
When you’re feeling blue
I’m always here
For you
And when you lose it all
And nothing seems right
Just keep holding on to me
I’ll be your angel
In your darkest night
I’ll be your destiny
Waiting by your side
I’ll be the sunshine
When you’re feeling blue
I’m always here
For you
Lloyd's of London has gone to court ... asking a judge to let the company off the financial hook, claiming it doesn't owe the Michael Jackson Estate $17.5 million on grounds MJ was a fraud.
The company issued the muilti-million dollar policy to cover the doomed "This Is It" tour for losses.
But Lloyd's claims it doesn't have to honor the policy for 2 primary reasons:
1. Michael Jackson and AEG allegedly lied about Michael's medical history -- specifically, MJ said he had not seen a doctor other than a cosmetic MD since June, 2005.
2. Michael did not disclose he was taking prescription drugs prior to and at the time of his death -- including Propofol.
Lloyd's is asking the court for a declaration that the policy is null and void as a result of the alleged fraud.
Howard Weitzman, the lawyer for the Estate, tells TMZ, "This legal action is nothing more than an insurance company trying to avoid paying a legitimate claim by the insured."
