Adele's pov My eyes snapped opened at the loud blaring of my phone's ringtone.. I sleepily reached for and received the call without checking the caller's ID."Hello!" I yelled at whoever called me."Yo.. miss Rodgers, good morning to you too" a familiar voice responded.My eyes grew wider and I made to sit up abruptly, but an arm tightly wrapped around my waist kept pulling me down."Arthur?""The one and only" he replied.I smiled."It's a surprise that you called me, is Jasmine's phone not reachable?" I asked. He went silent, then I heard shuffling sound as though he's moving."We talked last night, I just wanted to inform you I'm back..."He's back? Wasn't he supposed to arrive today? Or did I mistook the date?"...you know, before you hear it from Jas and send me to an early grave""Oh"I smiled...That was before when I was still obsessed with him, I'd be sad and angry when he informs Jas about everything he does... everything that goes on in his life.Honestly, I'm quite shoc
Jasmine pov*She's coming!**I can't believe she'd do something as dirty as this!**But she look so decent, how could she stoop so low?**Like they say, don't judge a book by its cover*What's going on? Why is everyone talking and pointing at me? What happened here?I look around and frowned in confusion, when I noticed everyone is staring judgementally."Jasmine!" Elvis called me.He's standing by the counter, I quickly rushed towards him.. I know he's gonna scold me."Good morning, Elvis" I greeted him with a smile.He didn't reply me, rather he grabbed my arm and pulled me to a corner.. he frowned."Jas, what's going on?" He asked."What's going on?" I asked back.That's the question I had asked myself, when I stepped into the restaurant."Mr O'Briens.. what's going on between you two?" He asked again."Nothing" I replied."Eish.. I know you're both a couple, but did something happened between you two?"Ok.. I don't understand his question."Did you have a fight?"A fight? Wait.. t
Jasmine's pov Silence!I stood silently by the window, my arms folded on my chest as I stared out the window.My heart is breaking, I could feel it ripping apart slowly when I recalled the scene back at Thanatos office.Jade was riding my boyfriend...I wish this was a dream, but I know it's not a dream... it's harsh reality.Jade f**ked my man!"Baby, I'm sorry, I swear it wasn't my...." "Was that a revenge?" I cut him off in a gruffly.Hearing his voice alone is increasing the anger in me, it's as if I should just go away from him...I don't wanna hear him talk."A revenge?" Thanatos asked himself.My back is facing him, so I really can't read his expression but I could feel he's frowning."You left the house in a grudge..."I trailed off and rubbed my forehead gently."... you were angry that I called Arthur darling...is that why you choose to revenge me in this way?" My eyes welled up, that annoying scene kept replaying in my head. It's making me mad at myself for not murdering J
Writer's pov Thanatos' apartment.Thanatos squeezed the paper in his hands and threw it across the living room, I grabbed the phone laying on the table and smashed it."Bloody bast*rd!" He growled. "Sure enough, he's involved in this!" Peter too a few steps away from him, he knew Thanatos wouldn't mind landing a punch on his face right now."How can he use such a cheap trick?"Peter remained silent, Thanatos averted his gaze to him (Peter)."What about McMahon? How did Jade ended up being his assistant?""Oh.. McMahon sold his company to an anonymous buyer.."His (Thanatos) brows drew together in a tight frown, his fist balled and punched the table.".... we are still yet to know how the new boss is related to Jade"Thanatos glared at the paper he just threw across the living, then his eyes moved back to the smashed phone on the table."I have a hint of who this new boss might be..." Thanatos said.Peter stared at him curiously, wondering how he would know without investigating it
Adele's pov ".. so, we've managed to stabilize her condition, we also injected some ECPs and she's out of danger now" the attending doctor told me.ECPs... that's very smart of them to flush her system, thankfully, I told the doctor what happened immediately we arrived.I nodded and tilted my head, peeking inside and saw Jade laying unconsciously on the hospital bed."Thank you, doctor" "We are just doing our job, also, whoever it is she got in a fight with.. that person must be very strong" she said.I simply chuckled lightly, she's right though, I'm d*mn scared of Jasmine.Jasmine is someone I don't wanna trifle with or get in her bad side, I always tried my best not to offend her.When she's angry, she'll fight you with everything she got, she fights like a bull."Miss Rodgers, excuse, I have to go back and give a report""Oh, sure" I made way and she left.I turned around and walked into Jade's ward, I went closer to her and sat on the couch next to her bed.My eyes scanned ever
Jasmine's pov I heard the main door burst open, I paused the movie I was watching and turned around.Davis ran in and headed straight for the living room, his eyes fell on me and he broke into a smile."Momma!" He exclaimed excitedly."Oh my baby! Come on, give momma some love" I said, opening my arms.He jumped into my arms, making me fell back on the sofa and he attacked my face with kisses... I giggled."You're so happy this afternoon, did something good happened?" "Yeah" he nodded."Tell me, tell me, what happened?" I asked.He shifted his gaze to Thanatos who's now standing by the end table, he's holding Davis's backpack and lunchbox."Daddy and I went to the zoo! I saw a gorilla and many big animals!" He shouted at the top of his voice."Baby, bring your voice down.. I can hear you"He shook his head, he jumped away from me and onto the sofa next to me.. then started jumping on it."I saw a gorilla! I saw a gorilla.. it's.. it's so big, momma!"I understand why Davis is very h
Writer's pov Mexico city...07:49pm.Reinle's resident....Margret put a glass of water and medicine on the bedside table, she pulled up the blanket over her husband."Mom!" Tim called onto her and rushed into the room, she sent him a scolding glare.His eyes moved to his father's sleeping form on the bed, he quickly shut his mouth and waited until his mother is done."What happened?" Margret asked."Jade and Jasmine had a fight""What?!" Margret let go of the blanket and faced him fully, there's a very deep frown on her forehead."They had a fight?""Yeah...

Jasmine pov"Hold on!" Thanatos said and rushed towards it.I shared a sofa with Davis and started going through his books, to make sure he has everything he needed."Where's your art book?" I asked him.He quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and wiped his lips with his hands."My teacher took it" he replied.I nodded and continued arranging his books.That's when I felt someone gripped my shoulders from behind, I turned and saw Adele."Hey, girlfriend" I greeted her.She rounded the sofa and sat on a free one next to mine, he snatched Davis's spoon and took a spoonful of his cornflakes in her mouth.. which made Davis started crying."Momma, aunt Adele ate my food"I glared at her, but she's simply making funny faces at Davis who in turn is crying.I smacked the back of her head, then wiped Davis's tears."Aunt Adele is a cornflakes thief, I'll punish her later.. just eat your food for now and go to school, ok?"He nodded and continued eating, though he moved his cornflakes from i
