Jasmine's pov

"Goodbye, baby" I kissed Davis forehead and watched his teacher led him to his class.

Arthur honked, reminding me that I'm running late.. Davis turned to me and waved at me one last time, he blew a kiss at me and I caught.

He giggled and jumped into his class happily, I sighed and head back to Arthur's car.

"... It's none of your business if I'm not lady-like!" I heard Adele quarreling Arthur from the backseat.

"There's no use arguing with you, just know no sane man would want to marry a woman like you...I know I wouldn't"

Adele scoffed and pushed Arthur's head.

"As if I want to marry a man like you!" She retorted.

I simply stared at them, blinking in confusion as I try to figure out why they're arguing.

"I regret agreeing to give you a ride, it won't happen next time..."

"Please don't, FYI, there'll be no next time!" Adele cut him off.

I cleared my throat and quickly fastened my seatbelt.

"Is this the famous couples flirt fighting?"

"Bah!" They both exclaimed in disap

    Jasmine's povAdele and I look around with frown on our faces, there seem to be so much tension in the air.Everyone's working seriously and carefully, as if they're afraid to make any mistakes."Heyyy, Troy!" Adele stopped one of the waiters.I'm not surprised she knows his name, she's kinda popular with all the male staffs here."What's going on? Why is everyone so tensed?" She asked him.Troy looked around and sighed."It's our new boss, he's setting everyone's pants on fire...""Our new boss?" I interrupted him.He nodded and continued."... he seems to be in a very bad mood this morning, he yells at every little mistake"I frowned. "When did we get a new boss?" I asked.Adele nodded at my question, I guess she wanted to ask the same thing."Yesterday... Mr Mike sold the restaurant yesterday" he replied.Yesterday? It must be after I left.. so sad, I won't be able to apologize to Mr Mike as I had intended."Do you know, just this morning Ruth and Wyatt were fired""Why?" Adele ask

    Jasmine's povHold on...What am I doing? Why am I letting him stand so close to me? Didn't I vowed never to give him any chance to explain?But just a kiss from him made me change my mind, just a kiss from him made me lost myself.I better create some space between us, before he romanced me into forgiving him.. which is something I don't want to do.I don't wanna be with him ever again, I should just listen to his so called explanation."Baby, I'm sorry...""Stop!" I cut him off.That word *sorry* is something I don't wanna hear from him, I dread hearing it from him... he's not worthy of saying it."I don't want your apologies, just tell me why you left. Just tell me the reason you chose to ran away just when I found out I was pregnant""I didn't ran away, something made me leave... "I removed his hands caging me on the wall, then moved away from him.Walking towards the chair in front of his desk, I sat down.. he rushed towards me and sat on the table."I have work to do, so don't

    Jasmine's pov"...I couldn't escape until it's night time" Thanatos said.I was just studying his expressions while he was talking, he doesn't seem like he's lying."Baby, I didn't run away, I looked for you when I arrived at Mexico that night...I tried to reach you with Clark's phone but couldn't..."Hmm, from his explanation he didn't purposely ignored my calls, his phone was confiscated."...I really did look for, I wanted to apologize for not being able to accompany you to the hospital as we agreed. I..."Well, as for him not being able to find me, I think I'm to blame for that.I left Mexico that day, I thought he abandoned me so I left."...I'm really sorry, baby"I nodded."What about the lady you're supposed to marry? What happened to her?" I asked."I don't know""You don't know?"He shook his head, he opened his mouth to speak but stopped himself...he hesitated for some seconds before he spoke."I guess Henry got married to her instead""What's her name? How classy is she? I

    Thanatos pov I watched as Jasmine swing her hips towards the door angrily, she shut the door behind her in a very loud bang.A sigh left my mouth as I thought about her words, I should have tried harder to look for her.Then it dawned on me, she's going to pick up our son from school... I should follow her.I snatched my car keys from the table and head out, Elvis met me halfway out and greeted me with a small bow."Mr O'Briens, are you heading out?" I simply nod, my eyes scanned the place quickly, all the employees are working efficiently.Good! They got the message this morning."Right, starting now, don't make Jasmine do too much work!""Yes, sir" he replied and I headed out.She's already had so much to worry about, I mean taking care of our son alone doesn't look like a very easy job.When I stepped out of the restaurant, I saw her getting in a cab... I also got in my car."Where are we headed, Mr O'Briens?" Peter asked me."Quick, follow that cab!" I said urgently."Yes, sir"

    Jasmine's pov"Alright, safe trip and call me when you arrive Japan" I told Arthur.I'm currently carrying Davis in my arms, we've gotten out of Arthur's car..and Davis is awake already."I'll" He turned his gaze to Davis and waved at him, Davis returned it too."Love you, champion" he told him "Love you too" Davis replied. Arthur started his car and drove off, while I turned around and headed into Mike's kitchen. Adele rushed to us when she saw me coming with Davis, she kissed Davis forehead and Davis quickly wiped it off."Cooties!" He said and glared at Adele.Adele simply rolled her eyeballs at him, which Davis scoffed at."What happened? Why didn't you hand him over to Arthur? What if Elvis sees him?" She asked. She looked around, searching if Elvis is nearby."You know the rules here, workers aren't allowed to bring their kids to work" she said.I glanced around and found an empty table."Let's go over there, my arms are getting tired" I told her.We headed towards the tabl

    Thanatos pov Thanatos office!!Clark kept glancing every minute, as if he's wait for someone to come in.There's a smirk on his lips, which made me frowned deeply. Clark doesn't normally keep smug expressions, I do..then what is he smirking about? "Are you sure sending her varieties of dishes...""Calm down, she's gonna be so moved, she's gonna realize how much you care about them" he said.I frowned."Are you sure?" I asked again.He nodded and glanced at the door again, he stared at his wrist watch."Jasmine is already mad at me as it is, I don't wanna do something that will anger her more""This is a plan well thought, perfectly organized and directed by me... be ready to thank me later" he said.I leaned back on my chair, I rest my elbow on the table and rubbed my forehead.The scene from this morning at Davis school kept replaying in my head, making me angrier and ready to stab that unorganized f**kard to death.He's lucky he's someone of great importance to Jasmine!"10..

    Jasmine's pov I tilted my head."Forgiven you? It's easier said than done...I said I have forgiven but I just can't seem to forget all I went through!"He showed up yesterday, explained some things to me which I don't know if are true...and expect me to forgive him?What about those cold, rainy nights I spent alone? What about when I was facing life and death in the labour room? "Please, stop interfering in our lives... We'll let you know when we need you!" I said and turned around to leave.But he caught my hand and pulled me back, I stared at him with a deep scowl.Then I saw a lone tear runs down his cheek, I blinked.. is he crying? Why?I didn't say anything wrong right? I simply just spoke what I feel, he..."Baby, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!""Thana..."He pulled me into a hug, I tried to move away from him but he held me tightly... soon, my body started shaking and I heard him... sobbing?"It took me so much efforts to find you, now that I've found you.. please give me a cha

    Jasmine's pov Thanatos' office.There's a knock on the door, my heart almost ripped off my chest.My eyes did a quick scan looking for somewhere to hide, not being able to fine any place to hide.. I dashed under the table.Hmm...I've been dashing under the table a lot today.Thanatos squats to my level, there's a small frown on his face."Why are you hiding? Aren't you expecting your friend to bring in your clothes?" He asked.I blinked, right, I did told Adele to bring in my clothes."But what if she isn't the one at the door, I can't let someone else see me like this in your office"He tilted his head, as if he doesn't understand what I mean."What's gonna happen if they see you?" He asked.I gave him a "really?" look, is that a question he's supposed to be asking me? Isn't the answer obvious?"Eish! You're so dumb! Of course, they'll gossip about it!" I said."Oh, right" He got up and sat on his chair, he looked down at me again and smirked mischievously."Do you know you can

Thana's been trying to get me to the hospital for check ups, but I kept refusing.But finally, he succeeded in dragging me to the hospital, now entering the doctor's office (aunt Grace) is now a problem. I sighed."I'm gonna be here with you, also, it's just gonna take five minutes and we'll be done" he said.I rolled my eyeballs at his words, he's talking as if he's the doctor.. what a sweet talker."Let's go" I said. He nodded and pushed the door opened, then made way for me to go in and he followed after me."Aunt" I called aunt Grace when we fully entered her office.She closed the file she was reading and lifted her head.. she broke into a full smile when she realized it's me."Jasmine,

    Chicago police department!After our flight, which lasted for 3hours.. we arrived at Chicago.Peter sent our bags to Thanatos penthouse, while the rest of us decided to call at the police station. Currently, we're listening to the recorded conversation.But while this is going on, an old man whom I just got to know as Mr Roman, is glaring daggers at ma Gloria."Ahem!" An officer cleared his throat. "Mr Roman, what do you have to say about this? Did you had this conversation?" He asked the old man.Mr Roman simply glared at ma Gloria and scoffed, he refused to speak a word."I'll take your silence as a yes...""Don't waste your breath, I know you're gonna send my case to the court.. but first, I want to see my grandson" Mr Roman said.His grandson? That should be Thana's stepbrother... I looked around but there's no unfamiliar face here, it's just us."Grandfather, I'm here!" An unfamiliar voice spoke from the hallway.I turned and waited until he walked into the office or interrog

    Jasmine's pov The next morning..."Is it really necessary for you guys to go there?" Adele asked.My eyes flicked towards Peter who's carrying our bags to the car, then sighed. "Yeah.."She frowned at the bags Peter's carrying, then took my hands in hers and pouted."Why are y'all taking so much bags with you? Do you plan on settling there already?"I frowned slightly, then burst into a brief laugh."Adele, we might stay for some days.. you're making it sound like I'm abandoning you""Are you not?" she asked."You're just being overly dramatic" I told her.Just then we heard a knock on the door, I wanted to go get it but Adele told me not to bother.Her flicked to my stomach and she smiled, she pushed me onto a sofa and made me sit down."You should take care of yourself now" she said, her eyes still on my stomach.I rolled my eyeballs."I told you guys, this might just be a false alarm" Honestly, I didn't want anyone to find out about this just yet, because it might be a false ala

    Adele's pov I'm feeling so nervous right now, it's as if I'm sitting for an interview.Mr and Mrs Evans sat on a love sit opposite us, another gorgeous lady who look a lot like Mrs Evans...sat on a sofa next to them.She folded her arms on her chest and stared at me attentively, her stare is giving me goosebumps."So...tell us truthfully, is your father a businessman?" Mr Evans asked.I bite my lower lip, swallowed the nervous lump in my throat and shook my head."No" I answered. "He was a farmer"It's better I tell him the truth now, I can't bear the repercussions if he finds out I lied later...rich people are always powerful."Was?" He tilted his head slightly."Yes, sir...he died last year, he suffered lung cancer" I said. Mr Evans nodded, he exchanged a knowing look with his wife and her lips curved in a smile.. or smirk.. I don't know.I'm too nervous."What about you? Which of the universities did you attend?"His question made my blood ran cold, will he chase me out if I told

One of the officer asked.Ma Gloria took a deep breath and nodded, though she seemed a little bit nervous."Alright, let's start with.. who's Mr Roman to you?" The officer asked."He's.. he's.. my stepfather"Who's this Mr Roman everyone is talking about? How come I don't seem to know him? Or maybe I haven't seem him before."Your stepfather...." the officer trailed off and jotted down in his note, then lifted his head."... can you tell us about your relationship with him?" He asked.Ma Gloria nodded, she cradled Davis whom she's still carrying in her arms.. she had refused to lay him down."My mom got married to Mr Roman three years after my dad died, she took along with her, my sister and I..

    Jasmine's pov A tap on my shoulder woke me up from my sleep, I sat up and massaged my stiffed neck... a yawn left my mouth.Wait...when did I fall asleep? weren't we just watching a movie?My eyes located the wall clock in Adele's living room, a gasp left my mouth at once... It's been two hours already.How could I sleep for such a long time? I guess the movie was too boring and I ended up falling asleep. "Jas, they are back!" Adele said.I sprang off the sofa abruptly, my heart suddenly skipped and some unknown fear gripped me..my heart started beating fast.I hope it all went well..."Jas, Clark and Thana are back!" she repeated her words."They're back?" I asked again.I turned towards Davis who's already sleeping on the sofa, I carried him on my shoulder and snatched his backpack from the table. "Em...good luck" I told her, referring to her meeting with her in-laws.She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, I think I really need some luck"Just then, her door pushed opened and Clark r

    Writer's pov"Clark!!" Thanatos called his name, but Clark isn't moving.Not that he doesn't wanna move, but he's in shock and can't react. Thanatos pushed him away, but he wasn't fast enough.The bullet hit him (Thanatos) and went through his chest, just an inch away from his heart.Thanatos gasped loudly in pain, he aimed randomly and shot at whoever shot him... he clung on his bleeding chest."Thana.. I think we should retreat and think of another plan" Clark said worriedly.Thanatos focused his gaze on the retirement home ahead of him, he shook his head in disagreement."We must get my mom out today!" He got up and knocked Clark out."Peter stay and watch over him, find a hideout and hide there.. until it's all over" he told Peter."Mr O'Briens..."I glared at him, but he ignored my glare and continued."...you can't fight with those guys, they're skilled assassins""Don't make me knock you out too" he said and rushed towards the gun fire battle. **Thanatos pov Standing in the

We're currently sitting round a table, in a restaurant right opposite Molina's retirement home."I discovered something very interesting" he said again and paused.Can he just finish his words in a go? I have very important things to do than listening to him blab about his date."Those security men patrolling the place, can you see them?" He asked.I faced him and realized he's pointing at the security men guiding the retirement home."Yes? What's with them?" I asked, then turned my gaze back to the security men."They are spies, they're not real security men"I rolled my eyeballs and shook my head, then poured him a glass of water."Clark, tell me something I don't know" I told him, dumping the glass of water in front of him."What do you mean? I gave a very useful information,

    Jasmine's pov Mike's kitchen!"Arrrrrrrgh!"Adele lets out a screeching sound, I covered my ears at once and shot her a glare.Luckily, we're out customer's coverage, else some of them would have been giving us weird glances."Shut up!" I scolded her.She slapped her hands on her mouth, but doesn't stop screaming. When she's had enough, she stopped. "I knew you'd react this way, that's why I brought you to the locker room" I told her in warning tone.She scoffed and shrugged off my words, crazy female."You mean, Elvis was sent here by your dad.. to watch over you?" She asked."Yeah""Now it all makes sense!" She exclaimed."What makes sense?". I asked.She got up, I sighed and rolled my eyeballs.. she's about to make it dramatic.Her hands behind her, she paced to and fro in front of me...she tilted her head as though she's thinking."Our behaviors throughout these years should have gotten us fired, but it didn't"Adele nodded her head, she stopped pacing and reache
