What do you think about Jessica's indigestion? Anyone also feel the same way?
CHAPTER SIXTEEN Cade's class ended by 5 pm that day and once it was over, Jessica prepared all her clothes that she had brought there the following day and was ready to go home. She sat in the room allocated to her and was about to hire a cab when Cade knocked and came in. "I know you're still angry with my brother but one thing I want you to know is that he can be every other bad thing a casanova can be but he'd never rape anyone or even try to. I'm not trying to justify what happened when I was not even there but I want you to know that he has never been in a position where anyone rejects him. That's why he doesn't understand the word 'NO'. But to be honest, I'm really grateful you taught him such a big lesson at least he understands it now." He explained with a smile. Jessica smiled and pulled him to sit beside her. "I understand you idolize your brother and I don't have any problem with that. I will try my best to not lose it when I see him but I'm not making a promise. He h
'Woah! This girl and her friend are gutsy but I'm a Master at this game!' Cruz smiled as he thought to himself. "If you can put up with seeing my face every day then it's fine." He replied pretending not to have heard their conversation and as he noticed the slight frown on her face, he continued, "I mean, I will try my best not to get on your nerves." "Thank you!" She replied, shutting her eyes briefly to suppress the embarrassment. 'God! This is the worst moment of my life! I hope I survive this!' She breathed. "Shall we?" He asked, opening the front passenger seat for Jessica and once she was in, he shut the door and walked towards the driver's seat. 'Now the fun begins!' He thought to himself as he entered the car and began to drive home. As they hit the road from Santa Monica to Beverly Hills, Cruz felt it was time to start shooting his shots and Jessica's frequent grumbling stomach was a perfect way to start. "Hey, Miss Vegas, you haven't had anything today except th
Rather than replying to Cruz, Jessica stood up and stomped away and once she was a few out of his sight she looked at her phone that was still ringing, and then she answered the call. "Frank! Don't ever call me in your life again! I mean it." She yelled and immediately ended the call. Frank was Jessica's first boyfriend who tried to rape her on her birthday, the same day Cruz also attempted the same. He also disseminated the videos of her violence which was the reason she almost lost her job if not for the mysterious helper whom she's not even sure of. She went back to the swimming pool where Cruz was still sitting to pick up her drink. Without a word, she attempted to leave but he grabbed her hand, forcing her to stop briefly. "Are you alright?" He asked out of concern. Jessica breathed heavily and narrowed her eyes at him before wiggling her hand off his grip. "I'm fine!" She replied before dashing into the main house and finding her way to her room. Her voice was taut
Aside from the fact that Elizabeth Warren is a big screen Actress and fashionista, she is also Jessica's Idol but most importantly, Mr. Westham's girlfriend, or so the media says. "I almost swore the photo of you and Cruz at some restaurant were edited but you had to prove me so wrong, Miss Jessica Vegas." Elizabeth asserted in a penetrating voice, her words making Jessica slightly uncomfortable but vastly confused. "Miss Warren, it's nice to see you again." She exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. Jessica is a great fan of hers because of her explicit acting and dressing style but the first time they met, Jessica made sure to explain to her how much of a jerk and a manwhore Cruz was, seeing her here now, Elizabeth felt all that was just a ploy to get closer to Cruz. "It doesn't feel so nice for me. What are you doing here?" She asked in a high-pitched voice, making Jessica even more uncomfortable but for all she knew, Elizabeth was his girlfriend and she obviously owed her an e
Even though homosexualism is now wildly practiced, Jessica never in her wildest imaginations thought that the most sought out bachelor in LA was gay. "I just came." Jessica lied, dropping her gaze to avoid any suspicions. Cruz shut his eyes briefly and heaved a sigh of relief before opening them to see Daniel also peeking through the door to see Jessica. Their eyes met and they gawked at each other. Jessica bent down to pick the broken plates from the ground but out of shock, it pricked her finger. "Ouch…" She let out a gasp which pulled Cruz's attention and he ran down to her. "Are you alright?" He asked as he tried to grab her injured hand but Jessica quickly stood to her feet and hid her hand behind her back, preventing him from touching. "I'm fine." She replied, moving her eyes all around the corners of the passageway until they fell on the man in Cruz's office. He looked a lot like someone she had seen before but as always, she couldn't tell where. "Hi!" Daniel greeted wa
Cruz set the timer on his phone and soon, their duel began. Within four rounds of swimming, Cruz paused to rest and catch his breath while Jessica proceeded. Cruz knew what he was doing and after a few second rest he continued and in a few minutes, the duel was over. While Jessica finished 4 minutes 43 seconds, Cruz was able to complete his in 4 minutes, 37 seconds winning the duel with just six seconds. Jessica sharply turned around and faced the edge on the other side of the pool and with a reasonable part of her body still fully submerged in water and her hands resting on the ground right after the pool, she seethed with rage. Apart from losing the match, Jessica hated the idea that he won despite resting while she didn't. "You rested, I didn't but you ended up beating me, doesn't that sound like fraud?" She asked, turning sharply to see Cruz before turning back. "That's the strategy dear. You didn't rest at all and that made you tired during the last three rounds and you
"What are you talking about now?" Cruz asked, feigning ignorance to Cade's question. "Don't you think I'm the last person you should play such ignorant games with?" Cade asked angrily and Cruz knew he had a point. Cade knew Cruz more than himself and there was no need to feign ignorance around him but telling him the truth was also a big NO and Cruz knew how to end this kind of topic. "What? You think I'm playing a game with her?" Cruz asked angrily but Cade remained mute to hear what his brother had in his defense. "You saw how embarrassed she was when you walked in earlier and I know you are not happy about it. That was exactly what I was trying to avoid. I won't deny I admired her while she was asleep but I pretended to be sleeping when she woke up just so she wouldn't feel embarrassed or awkward but it's evident you don't even trust me. It's obvious you also believe that I tried to rape her at the club that is why you are being so weary of me but I'm really disappointed that
Cruz quickly shut his mouth and stretched his hand out to Jessica. "Sure!" He replied, still staring at her. "By the way, you look breathtaking." He complimented, still staring lustfully at her as he grabbed her hand. "He's right, Miss Jessica. You look really good, nobody would believe you ain't a celebrity today because I can already tell you are the best dressed." Cade added, peeking at Cruz from the corners of his eyes. "Thanks for the compliment." She replied before Cruz gently pulled her out to the compound. Cruz wasn't looking bad himself in his navy blue tuxedo. A white Tesla Model Limousine pulled up in front of them and a few other black G-wagons and SUVs parked in front and behind them. "Are we some kind of convoy? Why so many cars?" Jessica asked in disbelief. "Well…even if I don't want to, I have to go with bodyguards, especially on such occasions. I hope you understand." Cruz explained as he opened the rear seat of the white Limousine for her to enter. The ri
