★★★★As they stepped into the villa, Dante's eyes lit up and he ran towards Jasmine with a joyful shout, "Pretty Lady!" He wrapped his small arms around her waist tightly. Jasmine closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of his embrace, and then picked Dante up into her arms, hugging him lightly yet deeply. This time, she allowed herself to fully feel the bond she shared with Dante, pressing him close to her heart."I miss you!" Jasmine whispered, her voice trembling with emotion."Really, I miss you too," Dante replied, planting a sweet kiss on her cheek. Jasmine felt a lump form in her throat, making it hard for her to speak, while the heaviness in her heart grew with a mix of regret and overwhelming emotion.Damon watched them, his face a mask of neutrality. But inside, he was having a hard time processing the genuine affection his son showed toward Jasmine. It was a depth of love and attachment he had rarely seen in Dante, even towards himself."I’m here too, you know," Payne piped up,
★★★★"Why? I just wanted to rub myself against you," Damon said, his voice dripping with a mix of frustration and longing. His eyes were locked on Jasmine, who stood a few feet away. Despite his attempt to reach for her, she quickly swatted his hand away."People are present, including children. Have you no shame? How can you keep thinking about this all the time?" Jasmine's voice was a low, urgent whisper, her eyes darting around to ensure they weren't overheard. "I’m starting to get scared. I don't know how many women would be afraid to be around you."Damon took a step closer, his expression softening slightly. "What? No, no, other women have never affected me the way you do. Even when they were always ready to give themselves to me."Jasmine continued to back away, her feet moving cautiously until she felt the hard edge of a flower pot behind her. Panic flashed across her face. Shit! she cursed inwardly.His eyes glinted with a dangerous desire as they bore into her. Jasmine could
★★★★★"Well, this is an interesting past Jasmine has hidden," Harley mused, his eyes narrowing thoughtfully. "But I am curious whether Damon is aware of it or not.""It's impossible that Damon Colley doesn't know about the past of the woman he's hanging out with," replied the man standing in front of Harley, his voice firm and assured.Harley's brow furrowed deeply as he considered this. "Then what is the reason he's suddenly spending so much time with a woman who has a child?" he questioned, a hint of frustration in his voice. No matter how he turned it over in his mind, he couldn't piece together the puzzle of why Damon was so focused on Jasmine."She surrogates for someone," he muttered, his mind racing through various possibilities. It didn't make sense. Damon was not the type to get involved with someone out of pure altruism, especially someone with such a complicated past.The man across from him shrugged. "Maybe there's more to it than we know. Maybe it's not just about her pas
★★★★On the other hand, Damon and Jasmine arrived at the backyard, where a large trampoline stood amidst the grass."Mom, play with us!" Payne called out, her excitement palpable as she jumped on the trampoline with Dante. Damon, meanwhile, was busy clearing away pebbles from the grass to ensure everyone could run around barefoot safely."No, I'm fine here! Both of you enjoy, but be careful!" Jasmine replied, her eyes following the children as they bounced with glee."Yay... woohoo... this is so much fun!" Payne shouted, her laughter echoing through the yard as she jumped higher and higher."You should join them," Damon said, looking up from his task as he continued to clear the area around the trampoline.Jasmine shook her head with a smile. "No, I believe I am a grown up. However, I would not mind seeing you jumping with them!" Jasmine said, her tone sarcastic."Yes, you are grown up, but your strength is really lacking. Even though I was wide awake, you fainted. This is not a good
★★★★"You have gone beyond, boy. Last night Cindy prepared..." Elder Colley paused mid-sentence as his gaze landed on his great-grandson, Dante, who stood with a woman and a girl beside him. His eyes instantly darkened with anger."Who is she?" Elder Colley's voice thundered with suspicion."She is someone Dante likes. So, I have invited her to this house," Damon replied, brushing his hair back in frustration."Who are you, woman? I am not pleased to see you here. What family do you belong to?" Elder Colley demanded, ignoring Damon’s explanation and directing his hostility toward Jasmine."You must not talk to my mother in that tone," Payne interjected, stepping forward with clenched fists, feeling the old man’s words were an insult to her mother.Elder Colley was momentarily taken aback by Payne’s eyes, which were strikingly similar to Damon’s. Her expression left no doubt about the similarities between her and Damon, yet it was also true that his grandson could not have an illegitim
Warning: This story contains numerous steamy scenes. ***** "Dad, please I'm begging you to stop being so cruel toward my mother. She will die if the therapy is not started soon," Jasmine begged, kneeling on the chilly marble floor. Despite her efforts to conceal her tears, her watery face revealed the intense feelings she was experiencing as a result of her father's carelessness. Ever since Ronald fell in love with Kesha, Jasmine's mother became a constant source of annoyance for him. However, he found himself unable to evict her from the house due to the property she owned, which was now under his ownership. "Well, this is your mother's faith, which I believe God bestowed to her because he, too, believes she is useless. I am not going to spend a penny on her. If you want to live with us, I need you to treat that woman the way I do. She might be your mother, but trust me, she's a snake. You know nothing about her," Ronald stated as he lay on the couch, watching TV. At that moment,
****"Jasmine, I know it's tough, but crying won't change things," the woman said softly, setting down a steaming cup of tea in front of Jasmine, who remained huddled by the window, tears streaming down her face.Jasmine's voice cracked with anguish as she bared her soul to Nadia. "I... I can't see a way out, Nadia," she whispered, her words weighted with despair. "I don't own anything valuable to sell, and even if I land a job in some corporate office, it won't come close to covering my mother's treatment. I'm just so exhausted," she admitted."I wish I could offer you a solution, Jasmine. Even if I could get you a job at my office, it wouldn't be enough to cover your mother's treatment," she said softly, her hand resting tenderly on Jasmine's shoulder, offering what comfort she could. "And I... I don't have any savings to help you out either," Nadia confessed, her own heart heavy with helplessness."It's alright, Nadia. I appreciate your willingness to help, especially when my own f
The following day*****Jasmine clutched her phone, eyes fixed on the message on the screen. On one hand, the news that she was the chosen candidate brought a rush of relief. Yet, a gnawing fear crept in, leaving her body tense and her mind clouded. It was not an exaggeration to say that they had given her the option to step back, but she felt compelled to proceed in order to secure the money."Excuse me, ma'am! We've arrived," the cab driver spoke up, noticing the woman in the backseat showing no sign of intending to exit the vehicle.Jasmine startled, jerking upright and opening her eyes to gaze out the window.The cab driver, sensing something amiss, spoke out of concern, "Is everything alright with you, ma'am?""Hu..." Startled, Jasmine turned around and forced a tight smile. "Yes, sir. I'm fine," she replied. As she spoke, she felt beads of sweat forming on her forehead, her palms clammy with nervousness."Okay then," the cab driver responded before starting the engine and drivi
