★★★★When the car arrived at the studio, Jasmine had no intention of getting out, as if she no longer cared where she was heading. She stared blankly ahead, lost in her thoughts."The car can't take you any further from here if that's what you're waiting for!" Damon said, glancing at Jasmine's profile. She had seemed distant since the moment they got into the car.His words managed to pull Jasmine out of her reverie. She turned to Damon with a complicated expression. "Sorry, I was just..." Before she could finish her sentence, Damon cut her off by capturing her lips in a kiss.He pulled away quickly, saying, "This is what you're waiting for, I know. I'm going through the same urge as if I haven't gotten enough of you."Jasmine felt a surge of anger at this absurd man who seemed to think of nothing but physical contact. "You're unbelievable! And don't compare me to you. I have no interest in any physical contact with you," she spat, wiping her lips before searching for her lipstick in
★★★★As Jasmine entered the room, she immediately noticed Cindy sitting in a lavish chair, sipping on a cold coffee. Cindy’s relaxed countenance changed drastically upon seeing Jasmine."You shouldn't be late to work, Jasmine," Cindy said icily, setting her coffee down. "The opportunity you’ve been given is difficult for a newbie to grasp. There’s Maria, the girl I think is more suitable."Cindy directed her gaze toward a young woman sitting in a chair across the room. Maria's bloodshot eyes locked onto Jasmine, filled with anger and resentment. It was clear that this project was very important to her. She had spent years trying to get a chance under Colley Productions, and then, one night, a girl with no name had taken the role from her.Jasmine met Maria’s glare with calm resolve and said to Cindy, "Why am I here for? To show pity her or make myself think how opportunist I am!" Cindy’s face scrunched up in anger as she fumed at Jasmine’s audacity. How dare she display such confiden
★★★★★"What?" Jasmine's voice trembled as she questioned Cindy, her heart pounding with fear. The very thought of kissing a man, especially in front of everyone, was terrifying. She knew this was not a performance. An intimate scene was something she might expect once the film started, but using it now to prove her abilities was unthinkable. Cindy was doing this deliberately, pushing her to her limits."Why?" Cindy's smile was as sweet as it was condescending. "This is your chance to show how well you can adapt to a situation. You're a completely new actress, Jasmine, and I don't want to compromise on anything just because you're having a hard time with intimate scenes."Jasmine's eyes widened in disbelief. "But you can't just ask me to kiss a random guy! Is he even an actor?" Her voice rose with anger as she glanced back at the man standing in front of her, feeling a wave of disgust wash over her.Cindy's smile widened, almost tauntingly. "Does it matter? An actress should be able to
★★★As they made their way to the photo session area, Ian glanced at Jasmine, curiosity evident in his eyes."What kind of argument did you get into with Cindy that she’s ready to start a war in the middle of the room?" Ian asked. He had been looking for the new female lead since the morning. Last night, he had been informed that the previous female lead had been replaced. He was quite excited to find out why until he heard that the new female lead had been suspiciously interrogated by Cindy.Jasmine sighed. "I can't really tell you everything, but I will say that I didn’t intend to argue with her. No wise person would willingly get into a confrontation with someone as powerful as Cindy. Perhaps the previous lead actress is a good friend of hers, and my taking over the role is something she wasn’t ready to accept."Ian was surprised by Jasmine's calm demeanor. He had expected her to complain or display anger. "You’re handling this well," he said, impressed. "Most people would be furio
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
****With the morning's arrival, Jasmine awoke with a groan, only to find herself amidst unfamiliar surroundings. The jolt of realization snapped her fully awake, prompting her to sit up, and her curiosity instantly ignited.As Jasmine scanned the room, her gaze darted eagerly in search of the mysterious man, but all she found was a space filled with nothing but her scattered clothes. Plus, she found her sleeping mask away from her reach.Jasmine hurriedly got out of bed and put on her clothes before leaving. However, she ran into the maid, who was pushing a tray loaded with food."I have been advised that at 10:00 a.m., I must offer you a protein-rich meal, therefore before you leave this place, I will ask you to eat this food," the maid remarked plainly.Jasmine was going to object to the meal, but before she could even form a sentence, the maid had already spoken.“I sincerely hope you would heed his advice, provided that you are fulfilling the terms of the contract that my master
