"I am not aware Miss Williams said that. She's right though, my privacy is important." Jasper replied. Jessa nodded in understanding, "I understand, now please put it here."She stretched her phone towards him, he collected it and dialled his number. He gave the phone back to her, she has a satisfactory smile on her face. Jasper sighed in frustration, he knows he just added to his list of headaches. "I'll be going now. I'm going to call you later." Jessa said. "Yes, later Jessa." He said happy she is leaving. Jessa unexpectedly kissed his cheek before walking away. Jasper is shocked that this woman can be so straightforward and fearless. He looked around hoping no one saw that. Raina came down thirty minutes later, she doesn't have a smile on her face like always. Jasper is getting used to seeing this grumpy side of her, if she smiled on day then he would probably disappear fast. "Where are we going to now?" He asked her before starting the car. "Take me to the company, where el

Chapter Twenty Two
Jasper stared at her in shock, she's taking this too personal. He wondered what Kelvin told her for her to be this angry. It can't possibly be because he went out for lunch. "You should calm down, yelling like this can raise your blood pressure. I am giving you an honest opinion. You should ask your doctor." He advised her. She walked straight to him, okay this is scary. She's going to kill him if he doesn't say anything. He stopped her from taking another step, sadly he doesn't raise his hand on girls. She might do something to him and he won't be able to do anything to her. "I went out with Miss Turner, you don't have to be so scary." He said. She frowned deeply, "I can't believe the nerves of that woman! She just had to come back just to have lunch with you. You should stop going out with her.""Huh? I don't understand. Why am I not allowed to go out with her? I am not a child and I know what I want. I'm supposed to make that decision for myself." He protested. "As long as you

Chapter Twenty Three
Raina tried to separate from him to no avail. She tried to say something so he moved his hand from her mouth, she gasped in some air. Then she glared at him. "Jasper Smith! Do you have a death wish? Let go of me right now or I'm going to send you to the world beyond!" She threatened him. "On one condition, you're going to let me sleep in my room tonight. I am too tired and can't guard you. You do that or people are going to spread rumors about us. I don't think we have much time, you should make a decision fast." He replied with a smirk. "All these because you don't want to guard me? What a useless idiot. Let me go, you can go have your beauty sleep." Jasper let go of her, she wanted to get up when she saw a maid coming. She laid back on him to hide her face, her eyes met with his. Their heart raced faster, both unable to take their eyes off each other. Jasper stared at her lips, having the urge to kiss them. He restrained himself and looked away, bringing Raina back to her senses

Chapter Twenty Four
Jasper saw Kelvin rush out of Raina's office like he was chased out, he burst into laughter. Kelvin scoffed and left in anger. Jasper imagined Raina's face right now, Kelvin must have done what he's not supposed to do to make her angry. He also stayed away from her office since she didn't invite him. Jessa came again by lunch break, she came into the building to personally ask Jasper. He did not want to go before, but then he decided against it. Raina would only get mad that shouldn't stop him from doing what he wants. They went to a restaurant that's not close to the company on Jessa's treat. Bella at this time was just passing by, she went into the restaurant to get something for Jasper, since he might still be at work. She wanted to use that excuse to visit him. It's been days and they have not talked or seen each other yet. She bumped into Jessa and Jasper coming out. She froze in shock, her eyes went to Jessa's hands and saw how they intertwined with Jasper's hand. "Bella?"

Chapter Twenty Five
Jasper received a call from his mother at work that his sister has been arrested for harassing someone, he didn't ask who it is yet. He hung up and barged into Raina's office. Raina was startled at the force with which he used to open the door. "Quit barging into my office like that!" She yelled at him. "I'm sorry." He apologized. "You're sorry? You're not going to say something arrogant? What's this about?" She asked noticing his bad mood. "I need to take a few hours off. I'll be back soon I promise." He replied, hoping she won't force him to stay back. He doesn't want to show himself at the police station, now his sister got into trouble. "Where are you going? At least give me a good reason why I should let you go." Raina inquired. "I need to... I need to see my sister. She got arrested." Jasper told her the truth. "Do you need help? I can call whoever is in charge and your sister will be released." She offered. "Thank you Miss Williams, but I'll rather sort this out myself.

"I can't face him. He is the reason why I have PTSD. I hate him, and I don't want him to do what he did to me before." Raina said in a low voice. Jasper felt sorry for her. The once arrogant Raina has shown her true colors. She is really afraid of her ex boyfriend to the extent of developing PTSD. "I told you I can help you overcome your fear. If only you are willing to listen to me. Be the change you need for yourself." He urged her. "How can you help him? The only way you can keep it away is by wiping him off the face of the earth. As long as he's still alive, I won't be at peace." She argued with him. "You don't have to argue with him, just do as I say if you want all that fear to go away." Raina didn't feel embarrassed talking about her problem with Jasper anymore. But it also seems he knows about Richard already, she recalled he talked about Richard the night she got drunk and the night she also went out with him. "Carly told you about Richard right?" She asked him. He nod

Chapter Twenty Seven
"What did you say?" She asked him in shock. He gave a nervous laugh. "Okay you don't have to take me seriously. I was just saying things out of my head. Must be the influence of alcohol."She did not believe him but decide to let it slide. She asked him another question again. "What do you think about having a girlfriend?""I don't know. I haven't found the one that can be in that position. Also I don't think the person I love would accept me. She doesn't like me." He replied sincerely. "Well that must be because you are a jerk. I can relate with whoever that is." He laughed, "I'm not that bad, I just haven't found the right person like I said before. Why not believe me?"She shrugged, "Why don't you convince me. There's nothing to lose." He moved his eyes to her lips, "You really want me to convince you? Are you sure of that?""Yes, convince me you're someone who can be a great boyfriend." She dared him. He moved his hands to her hair stroking it gently, she also stopped movin

Chapter Twenty Eight
Richard felt humiliated that Raina kissed another man in front of him. He wanted to know who this man is at all costs. He didn't say much today, he just stood beside Raina like a bodyguard. What if that's what he really is? A bodyguard?"Daniel, I need you to find out who that man is." Richard said to Daniel who is working in the office. ."What man? You didn't tell me about any man." He asked in surprise. "The one who is always following Raina around. First I want you to find out who he is, then I want you to find out his relationship with Raina." "Yes Richard, but then do you think he's relevant. We could just get rid of him." Richard shook his head, "No he's not, yet he has some sort of effect on Raina. She didn't break down like the last time because of him. He was encouraging her to move on." "Oh, I just got the information. It says here that he is the boss's bodyguard and driver. That's what our source at the corporation." Daniel informed him. Richard banged his table in an

The next day was great for Jasper as he didn't have to worry about arguing with Raina every time. She has really changed and become nice, most especially to him. They talked a lot, Raina got fond of him that she always asked him to stay in his office.Raina had asked him to go talk on another of her Spanish clients since he was so good with the language. She never expected to see Richard at the office, it seems Richard took the opportunity that Jasper went out to come there. At least no one would stop him from talking to her now."What do you think you're doing here Richard? Didn't I make myself clear that I didn't want to see you unless it's for business? And how dare you barge into my office just like that?" Raina yelled, though she's afraid she didn't show it. She tried to act strong and not let the fear get the best of her. She wished she had not sent Jasper away earlier.Richard sat down on the chair with his legs crossed. "I actually came to give you a good information, I also w

Chapter Thirty
Miranda made the coffee and took it to Jasper's room where he still laid on the bed staring long at the ceiling. There was no need to ask much questions as she already guessed what could be wrong with him."Hey sweetie, I made you some coffee would you like to try it out? I don't know what is happening to you but this will definitely make you feel better." She offered.Jasper took the coffee cup from her, seeing how worried she is even though he is not interested in any food or drink now. He can't get Raina out of his mind or get mad at her at all. Instead, his heart wanted him to go closer to her. Miranda felt bad seeing Jasper in this state. He looks tired and miserable sadly, that completely broke her heart as a mother."So, are you ready to tell me what is going on or should I wait?" She inquired from him.Jasper sighed softly, he would have preferred if his mother knew nothing about it. He and his sister are benton protecting her best interests. Miranda is a sort of weak and emot
