* Chapter 32 Ruthless woman *
While in the office, Keith has his gaze fixed on the video playing on his computer. It was the video of the scene between Jasmine and Carl. His slightly clouded face lightened up. A mild smile tinkered on his lips.
Shutting the computer, he picked up his coat from the armrest. The second he walked out, Desmond Kaine who was immersed in his work stood up hastily and then ambled to Keith.
" Are you heading out?" He solicited threading softly. He did not want to upset his boss who appeared to be in a good mood. If he did, they might spend another sleepless night working on the uncompleted project.
However, Keith countered with silence. Not wanting to force things, Desmond escorted the President downstairs.
Hopping into the Maybach, a husky voice hollered " Take a break t
* Chapter 33 Your bail has been provided* That night, Jasmine did not come to his room. Not that he anticipated it a part of him wished so. In truth, Jasmine fell asleep on the floor by the door, she had cried herself to sleep and was exhausted. #### A loud boisterous sound from the baton against the metal bars reverberated startling the sleeping girl. She sat upright, stroking her eye with the back of her hand. After the little fiasco last night, she was very tired. Only God knows where that sudden strength and desire came from. "Come on! Your bail has been provided. Get out" It sounded like a pleasant dream. She stood erect, her eyes bawling out with hope. Grabbing the bars, she perked out ex
* Chapter 34 Punish me!* " Jasmine. Will you let me stay kneeling? " The more Lucia glimpsed at the Dior nightgown Jasmine had on she could not help but gnash her teeth secretly. And as such, Jasmine snared her voice laced with resentment " It has not been five minutes and you are already complaining. Do you feel the slightest guilt?" In a passive yet shameful voice, Lucia illustrated in a bid to earn sympathy. Otherwise, why would she ever kneel in front of this fool? B*tch!! " Of course. I have even been punished, I have a record now. " Indirectly, she meant that her record was now smudged as a convict with an uncertain future. What more could Jasmine want? At this moment, Jasmine controlled her laughter. Who did this witch think she was deluding? " So!!. Was I to forgive you at first sight? " she sneered. 'Did this bitch change? Why is she so unforgiving now?? ' A light of shock flashed on Lucia's face. She swallowed hard then continu
* Chapter 35 Are you thinking of doing the deed in the elevator?* Inside the room, Jasmine peeked through the keyhole. Her lips curled up in a victorious smile. She pressed her lips tightly to stop herself from letting out surging laughter. The room may be soundproof from the inside, but it was the exact opposite outside meaning she heard and watched everything that transpired. " Her knuckles were so white. I bet she had never been so humiliated in her life. Jasmine 2: Lucia zero! Oh my! Thank you, Aunt May.Muah " Jasmine blew an imaginary kiss towards the door. This got her in a great mood. Excitedly, she lunged into the bed sinking inside because of her petite figure. Tossing her phone from one hand to another, biting her tongue as the inside corners of her eyebrows slanted upward. Following a lot of deliberating, she stood in high spirits. She gazed down at the man on her WhatsApp direct profile. She had just changed it and wondered if he saw it. " I
*Chapter 36 Taste better when you feed it * Leaning by the door, Keith skimmed through the jogging-fit jeans with a ring waistline and the baggy Denim jacket. It brought about a younger look, and cool, and the light makeup stressed her beauty. Reminding him of how stunning the woman he married was. " I brought spicy sauce and a surprise package " Jasmine announced chuckling, as she took the thermal flask apart to bring out the food. Getting the little containers out she laid them on the mini table by a sofa. Squatting on it, she began serving into plates. Facing him she tapped the spot beside her. Weirdly obedient, he sat next to her his gaze stabilized on her actions. She seemed so natural he could not help but smile at this. The delicious aroma filled the
* Chapter 37 Do you know her?* Returning from the bathroom, she saw that Keith was seated with a certain Alexandre Gates. They seemed to be talking about business for she heard words like shares, dividend, and betray. Moving closer she caught a glimpse of his face. Her pupils enlarged at this scenery " Thief " she blurted Upon hearing this familiar voice, the tall man looked over his shoulder. His gray eyes loomed over her as they became hollow with displeasure. " You?" " Yes me! " she said defensively resting her arm on her waist. "What a __ " " Unpleasant surprise " she impeded, biting her lower lip
* Chapter 38 ®18 Read at your discretion * After the awkward air cleared out. The guest by the name of Alexandre took a long swig of his drink knowing full well that his friend's intense gaze was stuck on him. " How did you both meet?" Xander expected this question. He anticipated it earlier. Keith had always been domineering and possessive about his entities. So when he heard about their meeting he needed to know everything. Xander chuckled flatly " I already told you didn't I" Once again, Xander filled in a glass of wine. " Why do I feel like you left things out? " He said honestly, not wanting to shake the feeling that things were not as plain as it was presented by them. Even though he
* Chapter 39 Your the reason for my existence* Moving over to the couch, he sat leg-crossed waiting for her response. He filled another glass with water and drank in one go. Feeling heartburn at his sudden coldness, Jasmine took off seating at the edge of the couch. She smiled mildly " Don't get me wrong_" The displeasure on his face enhanced upon hearing this. He knew where it was aiming it. And did not like it. Rubbing both palms together, Jasmine commenced selecting her words cautiously. " I know I said I came because I missed you, it was not a lie." She smiled at the changes in his facial expressions though in the next second, they evolved to indecipherable. Reluctantly, she scooted towards him. The cold air emanating from h
*Chapter 40 I have a surprise for you* With a modest smile, she informed intimately puttering with her fingers " No thank you. I will figure something out " He had done so much already for her. Jasmine did not want to bother him anymore, in any case, it would not be equitable for the others who toiled hard to be invited if she is invited without any hard work. Well, her parade of thought came to an abrupt stop when she heard his hoarse and firm magnetic voice. " You don't have to. You said you don't want to get me upset then you should let me help you. " " But?_" She piped in wanting to do things on her own. To tell him she did not need his help. There were many universities in the city alone talk less about the entire country. As such finding a good one won't be impossible, it will only need super effort from her. However, when she wanted to voice this, he intruded " No buts. Apply for the university today itself. Go home, I still have a lot of work to
