Jessica sat up straight when she knew Xavier would be far away from the house. She removed the blanket from her and looked down at her dress. It was stained and she hoped she would be able to get the stain off it. She entered the closet only to discover that her clothes were no longer there. She entered back into the room and stared at her suitcase by the door. She planned to leave the room as soon as she had gotten home. Xavier's warmth today and consideration made her feel strange about leaving the room. If she did not leave it would mean she was fickle and did not have a mind of her own. If she left it would mean she did not consider him after all the help she got. She was confused. She was sure she needed an opinion that was not hers. She looked at her bag on the chair that contained her phone. She pulled it out and stared at the screen. She has multiple missed calls from Leslie, Burke, and an unknown number, and then some text messages. She got to know that the unknown numbe

Jessica unpacked her suitcase and changed into something comfortable for bed. She has a rather long shower to wash away the sickness from the drink that she wore all day. As she entered back into the room she met Roselle dropping a tray of food to the table. "What is that?" Jessica asked startling the woman. "Oh my God young lady you startle me," Roselle said her hand going to her chest. "You startled me. I did not expect to see anyone in her when I came out of the bathroom" Jessica said back. "The young master asked that I deliver a meal for you tonight," Roselle said. Jessica felt her stomach feel funny when she heard the meal delivery was Xavier's idea. It was not the first time that he cared about her dinner before. If one could look past his excesses and impossible personality she was a gem underneath the rough surface. "Thank you," Jessica said as she felt a smile climb up her face. She walked to the table where the meal was placed. Roselle watched her and could not help

"Hello Roselle, I never thought I would hear from me again. You did not reach out when I stopped coming to the house" Leslie said as soon as she picked up the call. "Hello Lady Leslie," Roselle said pulling the phone from her ears and putting it on loudspeaker. "I told you I am not a lady I am just Leslie. Can't I be just Leslie to you?" Leslie asked with a cute voice. "You are just Leslie that's for sure," Dawson said with a chuckle in his voice. Hearing her voice rose his spirit in a kind of way. Her cheerful attitude was contagious even over the phone. "Oh Dawson, the whole Delgado family abandoned me when I married Brian. Was it because I no longer loved Xavier?" Leslie asked. "Of course not. I repent I would call you more often now" Dawson said. "Can we ask you questions about today?" Roselle asked the question cutting off the long talk. "I am all ears," Leslie asked. "What happened at the cafe that made you go to the police station?" Dawson asked taking the lead. "Don't

"Do we need to have this meeting at this time?" Jason was ticked off after being quiet for a long time. "I thought you called me so we could have the meeting," Xavier responded. Jason's call had pulled him away from spending more time with Jessica but Jason said it was because he wanted to go to a nightclub. "I called you so you could take me to a nightclub to have a nice time but here you are pulling up numbers and statistics that I don't want to hear about now" Jason responded in a high voice. "You know I don't know any clubs and I don't go to nightclubs so how could you call me for that?" Xavier asked annoyed. He hated that the time he spent with Jessica got cut short. The reason he felt angry he did not know but he wanted Jason to feel some kind of pain too. "You should have called Brian or any of your female friends from your last visit" "I broke up with them" Jason answered. "All of them?" Xavier asked shocked. "Yes all of them" He answered back. Xavier shook his head

"I would ensure to introduce you two at the party," Brian said.If Jessica was capable of drawing a smile out of Xavier then she was worth meeting. "Are you both having fun?" Xavier asked gritting his teeth. It showed that Jason and Brian were making fun of him. "I don't think I have had such great news in a long while. Did the Mr. Stuck up find love?" Jason asked. "Love? Who is in love?" Brian asked. "He just has a wife, it doesn't mean he is in love" he added to which Xavier nodded with so much vigor. "Eei, if he smiles because of a text from her then it's love" Jason countered. "What do you know about love?" Brian asked. "You had your first love at twenty-six" he added teasing Jason. Jason was a typical bad boy and he went to clubs and had what he called a nice time with girls. During his last visit to Chiachester City, he saw Alicia Gates for the first time since they left the university and he could not deny that she looked beautiful. More beautiful than he remembered. He
