★★★★★"Please, I know she is late in paying the money, but trust me, we are about to pay the owner of that casino this afternoon. Can you please give us a little more time?" Jasmine pleaded, her voice desperate as she lied to buy time."No, if you are willing to pay the money, then ask him to withdraw the case against her and we will grant her bail right away," the lady cop replied firmly, as she snapped the handcuffs onto Ceece’s wrists. Tears streamed down Ceece's face as she cried out, "Jas, help me. I don't want to go to prison!"Jasmine stood frozen for a moment before springing into action. She rushed to her room, grabbed her phone, and hurried back, blocking the cops' path. "Just one minute, please!" she begged.Frantically, Jasmine dialed Damon's number, knowing he was the only one who could stop the cops from taking Ceece away. Each time the call went through, Damon cut it off. "Damn it, jerk, pick up the call!" she muttered in frustration."You are delaying us, ma'am. I woul
★★★★ "Do I know you?" Damon said in a cold tone, his expression blank and unrecognizing. It was clear he genuinely did not recall Jasmine, or at least he was pretending not to. Jasmine’s anger flared up further. "Don't you dare put on an act, Damon? Ceece has been taken to prison by the cops, and I need you to do something about it." Damon’s face remained impassive, his eyes narrowing slightly. "You don’t seem to understand English, do you? I don’t know you, and I have no idea what you’re talking about." Jasmine’s frustration boiled over, her voice rising. "You seriously don’t remember? Last week at Red Horse Casino? You and your cronies set her up, and now she’s behind bars because of your twisted game!" Damon raised an eyebrow, his voice dripping with condescension. "I have no recollection of any such event. And even if I did, what makes you think I would care about some random woman’s problems?" Jasmine stepped closer, her eyes blazing with determination. "You can pretend all
★★★★★"Sir, I was attempting to assist you. You may not fully comprehend the extent of this woman's capabilities. Her actions could ensnare you in a situation leading to prolonged suffering," the man stammered, yet spoke bravely to Damon."Another baseless remark about her, and not only will I throw you out of my office, but I will also initiate proceedings to remove you from your position. Perhaps then you will comprehend the gravity of your actions," Damon threatened firmly, his gaze unnerving the man who broke out in a cold sweat.Jasmine found herself taken aback by Damon's response; the atmosphere around him remained charged, and she couldn't shake the unsettling feeling that his presence exuded. "Boss, please reconsider," Phil interjected urgently.Damon's gaze swept over the room, his expression unyielding. "Everyone, vacate this room immediately. The meeting will be rescheduled for another day," he declared icily, his words echoing ominously through the hall. The tension in
★★★★ The evening arrived and Jasmine found no cocktail dress in her wardrobe. She was also not willing to buy one before going to the party since she did not care how people would look at her. If people raised their fingers on her, she would be extremely glad because, from now on, she would care for the opportunities that could ruin that jerk's image. "Mummy, are you deliberately trying to look bad?" Payne asked as she watched her mother wearing old, dirty clothes, with excessive makeup on her face. "Do you think I look bad?" Jasmine asked her daughter. "Yeah, your face looks like a two-year-old drew on it with crayons. And the dress you're wearing looks like you haven't bought a new dress in years; a homeless woman,” Payne described distastefully, as her mother had never adorned herself in such a horrifying way. "I like your thoughts. Today is Halloween for me," Jasmine said, dragging her brush with blush powder across her cheeks, making herself even more hideous. "Are you going
★★★★★"Who is this hideous woman? Does she have a pass to this party too? Or are we just not aware of this beauty?" Cesar said between laughs.Damon didn’t know how to describe this foolish woman. She decided to come looking like this just to embarrass me. How silly? Damon sighed. "I should have known earlier!"Jasmine was quite pleased by the murmurs of the people. She would never have guessed that others laughing at her would be so satisfying. She rubbed her palms together and looked for Damon. There he was, standing magnificently with one hand in his pocket."Let’s see how you handle me now," Jasmine muttered under her breath as she raised her chin and made her way to Damon and Cesar.Cesar frowned, muttering, "Is that girl coming towards us?"Jasmine approached them, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Gentlemen," she said with a mocking bow, "enjoying the party?"Cesar couldn't help but chuckle. "Well, it certainly just got more interesting."Damon’s eyes narrowed. "What do you th
★★★★ Meanwhile, Cesar and Jasmine arrived at the top floor. Cesar led her to a room filled with beautiful dresses. "Take your pick," he said, gesturing grandly. Jasmine's eyes widened at the selection. "These are amazing! Thank you." He winked. "Choose wisely. This could be your moment." Jasmine selected a stunning emerald green dress. Cesar's eyes lit up. "Now, that's what I'm talking about. You will look incredible." "Thank you, you've been a great help, even though I've probably ruined my chances with my own stupidity," Jasmine admitted, her tone tinged with regret as she realized how her actions might have been perceived by Damon. "Well, truthfully, I'm quite curious to see you all dolled up. I've never known my friend to be so considerate towards someone else," Cesar remarked with a playful grin. "Now, get yourself ready before joining the party. Oh, and I'm not sure if there's any makeup left for you." Jasmine felt a blush rise to her cheeks, though it was well-hidden unde
★★★★"My friend is single and beautiful," Cindy said, praising her friend in front of Cesar with a sly smile. "If you’re hinting at being single, don’t leave her alone. The men in this venue won’t waste a second to approach her."Cesar chuckled, catching onto Cindy’s subtle matchmaking attempt. "Indeed, your friend is beautiful. But you might be forgetting she may not want to mingle with me. It’s not really pleasant to force someone into a situation, Cindy. I’m sure she’ll pass on your offer."Cesar’s tactful response left Cindy and her friend slightly puzzled, as they didn’t quite grasp his polite deflection.At that moment, a group of women passed by, their voices carrying over the crowd. "Look at the woman on the stairs. How gorgeous she is! That dress suits her so well. Who is she?"The murmurs caught Cindy’s attention. She and her friend shifted their gaze to the staircase. Descending gracefully was a woman in an emerald gown that hugged her body as if it had been tailored exclus
★★★★ "God damn, this man!" Cesar cursed under his breath, loud enough for Jasmine to hear. She heaved a sigh and turned to face Damon, who was glaring at her as if her action upset him. Jasmine rolled her eyes in response. "What kind of requirement can her presence possibly fulfill?" Cindy demanded, her ears turning deep crimson in anger. "I have selected her as the lead face of our film," Damon answered without hesitation, shocking both Jasmine and Cindy, who had never guessed this was what Damon had been planning all along, despite having asked him multiple times about the lead actress. "Is this some kind of joke?" Cindy snapped, disbelief flashing across her face. "I recommended Maria, who is not only a talented actress but also a three-time award-winning star." "The board of directors wants a new face," Damon replied coldly. "You may have a say in company matters, but do not question my decisions." "You've forgotten that Grandfather also said my consent is required for such
