Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde: Hot And Cold Chapter 22
"I'm really looking forward to tonight," Jessie exclaimed. Taylor was shown a dress she had chosen."What do you think about this one?" Taylor shook her head as she asked, "That's the sixth time you've declined. I don't have any dresses left to wear at this moment." She put the outfit back in her closet. "I also don't have the funds to purchase new clothing.""If you had accepted Din Cooper's offer, you wouldn't be saying this.""What? How could you say something like that to me?" Jessie headed to the bed after closing her closet. Taylor sat next to her."Let's be honest, miss. You would have been swimming in money if you had decided to marry him, and you would not have complained about clothing. You might have millions of dollars worth of high-end clothing.""I'm proud of myself, Taylor, and you know it. That kind of man is unacceptable to me."Taylor exhaled deeply. "It's simply a convenient marriage, Jess. Six months will pass in no time, and you will have filed for divorce and be f

"How could Marco have done such a thing to me?" Jessie inquired as she left the store. "How could he fool me like that? He fooled me by convincing me that I was unique and buying a forgery that looks exactly like the real ring?" Jessie took the ring and was about to throw it away when Taylor intervened."He's a jerk, but don't throw away the ring." She gave advice."Why?" Jessie inquired. "It's a forgery. How am I going to use a fake? What am I supposed to use a fake ring to do?""Hand it over," Taylor said, and Jessie did just that. "I'll get you a dress for tonight's performance. We need to return home. It's almost six o'clock." When she realized how upset Jessie was, she sighed. Who wouldn't be, right? Jessie recently discovered that the man she thought loved her gave her a false ring. "Don't let this dampen your spirits today. You must put your best foot forward and win people's hearts. Okay?"As they got into the car, Jessie gave a hesitant nod.Taylor retained the ring when she

Din's phone rang and Jessie's phone number Illuminated on his screen, as he had expected. Before picking up, he smirked. "The deal is still on.""I appreciate it." Her fading voice declared. Din understood her voice in the way she spoke. It seemed as if she had been drenched."Are you doing okay?" He inquired. He didn't care, yet he would have asked any person the same question."Yes. I am, indeed." Over the phone, Jessie did her hardest not to sound creepy or pathetic."Okay. I'll come get you by tomorrow. Prepare yourself before six o'clock." Before she could say anything else, he abruptly hung up the phone.He put his phone on his nightstand and looked out the window. He didn't realize it was raining until he checked. What if the rain drenched her? He pondered, then brushed the idea from his mind. He can't possibly have a weak spot for her. He was supposed to despise her, and he intended to do so.Finally, he got her wanting his help. He smirked once more as he hid beneath his blan

"Try to get some sleep and think of tomorrow as a fresh start." Taylor walked out of the room, picking up Jessie's empty cup and closing the door behind her. Jessie tried to sleep under the cover but couldn't. She dimmed the lights in the room and began silently scraping the ceiling.She had imagined how her life would change once she entered Din's home. It would truly be a fresh start. It wasn't a love marriage; it was a business marriage, and they'd be done in no time after he'd gotten his grandfather's company. Din was in love with another lady, and she didn't feel the same way about him, so ending the marriage wouldn't be as difficult.She inhaled deeply and slowly closed her eyes.Her alarm had sounded at nine o'clock that morning. Jessie stretched and yawned, her gaze falling on a piece of paper beneath her phone. It was a note from Taylor when she picked it up.Taylor had gone to work that morning after promising to assist her and pack. She had gone to work for an important mee

Din had left work earlier that day. He had informed Jessie that she needed to get ready before he came to pick her up the day before at six o'clock. He'd obtained her current address when Khalid informed him that Jessie no longer resides at her previous residence.He discovered Jessie was staying with Taylor and drove straight to Taylor's place without calling or informing Jesse that he was leaving work early.When Jessie heard the doorbell, she dashed to the living room. It was just four o'clock, she had wondered who would come to see her. She wasn't expecting anybody and Taylor would not have bothered ringing the bell because she also has a spare key to the house."I'm coming!" When the doorbell didn't stop ringing, she hurried to the door. After laying her hand on the cold doorknob, she gingerly unlocked the door and pulled the door open.She raised her head to see who it was and was surprised to discover Din Cooper standing in front of it. Her nose sneezed and she spewed mucous al

The lady began applying cosmetics to Jessie's face. As she applied eyeliner to Jessie's eyes, Jessie closed her eyes. "She has blond hair as well. She is petite." The lady could tell Jessie wasn't at ease as she spoke. "Would you like me to go on?""Yes. I'd like to learn more about this young lady. What is her name, exactly?""I'm not sure but he calls her babe," she said."Is that so?""They appeared to be in love." She went to refix Jessie's brows after applying the lashes.Jessie stated, "I want gentle make-up.""I didn't intend to make something hefty. You don't need much makeup on your face because you're already attractive."Jessie blinked open her eyes. "Is it always quiet here? It appears to be too big for just one person."The lady smiled. "Whenever Mr. Cooper brings the girl over, he usually buys this place out. I'm the only one that works on her, and he doesn't want anyone else to know what he's up to, so he pays them not to show up. He probably doesn't want them to talk a

The woman sitting next to Sierra cleared her throat. "Cedric, won't you introduce me to her?""Abby, please accept my apologies. It completely slipped my mind. I was so excited about Jessie being here.""So, because of your new granddaughter-in-law, you forgot about me?" She rolled her eyes and teased."Abby, don't be like that. You know how much I adore you." He fixed his gaze on Jessie. "My wife to be. Abby.""It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Cooper," Jessie spoke with a warm voice and a smile on her face. Abby had won her heart at first sight.Din scowled as he heard Jessie utter such things. He was not in favor of the union. His grandfather married his second wife Felicia after his grandma died of illness four years ago, but Felicia departed after stealing from him and fleeing the country. Cedric and she are always at odds. Cedric, she claimed, was self-centered and only cared about himself and his career, not her, and now Abby had entered the picture.He and Sierra both dislike

Din remembered his conversation with Jessie the night before. She sounded like she was sucked into the downpour. Perhaps that was the source of her illness.He and Sierra escorted Jessie into the house and showed her to her room. Jessie was too unwell to gaze at the mansion she admired.She just wanted to get out of that gown and sleep for a while."Be gentle with her," Sierra said as Din assisted Jessie into her bed."I'll contact the maid to see how she's doing," Din stated as he approached the open door.Sierra said, "No Din, contact a doctor," and Din nodded. "I'll stay with her till he gets here." Din walked out of the room after she assured him.After Din left the room, Jessie took off her clothes so she could breathe freely. She was carefully placed on the bed, her legs covered by a blanket. "If you weren't feeling well, you should have told him no when he invited you over for supper."Jessie coughed, followed by a sneeze. "I was completely unaware that I was ill.""How could y

Three months later…"Come home early today. I have something to tell you.""Really?" Din asked. They were both standing at the doorway. She was seeing him off as he prepared to leave for work. Din was prepared to sue Beth when the babies arrived three months ago, but Jessie dissuaded him. She claimed that she could have handled things worse if she had been the one, but Din asked for legal action not because of the video she sent but rather because of the money she stole from him. "She cheated me, Jessie. For this reason, I intended to sue her. I need her to pay the money back." He had said to Jessie so she would understand that this isn't about letting Beth go. "Din, you used to love her. You should let it go. She is already paying for what she has done to you." While gazing at her, Din sighed. He said, "Do you know how beautiful you are?" and she grinned. "You are really beautiful, Jessie." He kissed her on the lips. "Alright. Tonight I will see you, okay? This coming weekend, we

The month of March had just begun. The impending arrival of her children and Din's proposal on Valentine's Day made Jessie very happy. She'd been preparing her mind about having a fancy white wedding after a few months of childbirth. Din was a sweet man, and she couldn't stop loving him. They had also moved past their past, and they had been content ever since. "Do you like this yellow dress on me?" Din heard Jessie say as she turned to face him. She was getting ready for a Saturday picnic with the girls while he was on the bed working on his laptop. They would prefer to go on a picnic before she gives birth because they are aware that once motherhood begins, Jessie won't have the time to spend time with them. Din nodded. "You look good in everything." "I do." When Jessie got close to him, she kissed him on the lips. "I'm leaving right away. The girls will be furious if I come a little too late." "Alright. Have a nice day, my love." Din observed Jessie reaching for the door, but

"Din." "Jessie, are you okay?" Din properly set her down. "Are you hurt?" Jessie shook her head. "I am fine. Thank you," she said. Awkwardly, they both exchanged glances. Din wanted to scream his apology and beg for pardon, but he was interrupted. "You two are here together. That is really odd." When Sierra saw the two of them together, she said. "I was on my way to get you two downstairs. The New Year is quickly approaching, and it won't be enjoyable without the entire family present." She took both of their hands, and they all descended the stairs. Looking at the entire family, Jessie felt a strange sensation in her body. It's been days since she last saw them. Cedric didn't seem angry; in fact, he approached her smiling. "Are you two okay?" He asked. "We are fine, granddad." Din said. "Yes. We are. I asked Din to leave the room for a few days because I was dealing with so much with the babies and I didn't want to hurt him." She quickly laughed. "Hormones are to blame," "Real

In the blink of an eye, morning arrived. It arrived as quickly as a moving train. Din opened his eyes with a groan. Turning to his side, he looked out the window. He could also hear the chirping of birds and see the falling snowflakes and snow. Christmas day had just begun. He sat up and got out of bed. He didn't get to sleep in his own bed for the first time in a few weeks. In contrast, sleeping in the guest room was the worst experience ever. Din didn't get a lot of rest. He spent the entire night thinking about Jessie. He stretched his back and walked into the bathroom. There were extra fresh brush sets and a few plain tees in every room of the mansion. Din put on a plain t-shirt that he had taken. He wore the same pants he had on the previous day. Now that Jessie didn't even want to see him, there was no possible way for him to return to his room. He realizes that there is no way for him to proceed to the breakfast table. Jessie would be furious at him and would want to yell, a

Din was sobbing quietly while his head was resting on the door. Beth won't get away with this. He would track her down and hold her accountable for her actions. The outcome he didn't want has now materialized. Jessie despises him and doesn't want to see him again. He sighed, and just as he turned to walk away, he heard footsteps approaching. "Are you okay?" Din swiveled around to face James. Din had sobbed, and James could tell by the dejected expression on his face. "What is going on with you? Is it Jessie?" "I don't want to talk about it, James." Din turned and strode off. He opened the door to their floor's guest room, went inside, and shut the door behind him. There was no chance he could save this relationship at this point. Jessie is gone now. The rest of the family wondered why none of them appeared at the dinner table that evening. "This has never happened before." Cedric said. He turned to face Sierra. "Are they okay? Should we call the doctor? This is Christmas Eve. The r

"Is something wrong?" Din's gloominess caught Cedriec's attention. Ever since he informed him that Jessie was exhausted and had gone to her room, he had seemed unhappy. Din sighed. "I'm fine, granddad." On the sofa, he took a seat. Without Jessie, there was no chance for the game to succeed. When he saw Bev approaching, he stopped her. Din got up and led Bev over to the corner. "Tell me, is Jessie all right?" In all honesty, he had anticipated that she would scream or jerk her hand away, but Bev did neither. She behaved nicely. She nodded. "She looks fine to me. She is just asleep." "Thank God." Din breathed out. "Thank you for this information. I will check up on her myself when she is awake." Following a warm smile, Bev walked away. Din returned to the tree, and the contest started. With what Bev had said, he was happy. Just that alone gave him peace of mind that Jessie was doing well. Din assumed control of the situation and was requested to sing. He was initially hesitant, bu

Jessie switched off her phone and looked in his direction. She gave him that ferociously intense look tinged with hatred. Every part of her hated him at the moment, and all Jessie wanted to do was approach him and yell at him. She wanted to grab hold of his shirt collar and ask him what she had done wrong for him to even consider ruining her life. Has he always been this cruel? Well, she knew Din Cooper was cruel, but she never imagined that he would destroy someone else's life in order to achieve his goals. "Jessie." Din waved after noticing her fixed gaze on him. She didn't wave in return. She was staring at him, but she wasn't in the moment. He placed what he was holding on the sofa and walked over to her. "Jessie." He called softly, putting his hand on her shoulder to startle her from her thoughts. Suddenly gasping in silence, Jessie turned to face him. Her eyes widened. She knew exactly how to keep her cool in front of this man. The man she loves. The man who will become the fa

Standing by the tree, she couldn't help but turn to look at the young boy. Henry was a jerk when she last spoke to him three hours ago. How could he treat his son in that way? How could he behave in such a way toward his son? Jessie sighed as she returned to the room. The time for the game she had planned had already arrived. The door opened as she changed into a different outfit. She saw Din walking towards her. He embraced her and gave her a neck kiss. "How are you today?" He asked. Jokingly, Jessie rolled her eyes. "You ignored me the entire time because you were with your family." "That's not true. I kept thinking of you the entire time." And he was speaking the truth. Throughout those conversations he was having with his cousins, he had been thinking about her. Although he wanted to stay with her longer, he was unable to leave his cousin's side."Hmm." She whirled around and gave him a glance. She put both her hands on his shoulders. Jessie could tell from the expression on hi

The girls stood in front of the television as the Christmas song started to play, singing and dancing along. The entire time, Jessie was smiling and content because she had resolved all of her issues with Din. They both made the decision to be honest with one another and made a commitment not to keep secrets. That way, they can keep a healthy relationship. "Come on, girls. Cookies!" The girls ran to her with giggles as she approached them holding a tray of cookies. They each chose two before returning to the television. Ben made the decision to leave Jessie's company earlier that afternoon and head to his father because the games the girls were playing involved dressing up. She won't blame him, though. After all, he was a boy, and no boy his age wants to play dress up. "Psst." Jessie whispered to Silver. "Come here." Silver rushed over to her when she motioned. Jessie bent down to be on the same level as the little girl. "I need something from you." Silver asked with a mouthful. "
