Sierra lowered her shoulders after lifting them. "Jessie, it's obvious." As she walked away, she said, "I think you did something wrong."

Jessie breathed deeply. If he did discover she was in his room, why wouldn't he scold her? Din Cooper always constantly came up with new ways to torture her, but this time was different. He has to be up to something new.

After her talk with Sierra that morning, Jessie's phone rang the moment she walked into her room. When she checked to see whether she could pick it up, it was an unknown number. She paused before answering the phone, and when she did, she heard an old, sluggish voice speak. She recognized it and was perplexed as to why Din's granddad had contacted her. He'd expressed an interest in seeing her and asked if she could see him in his mansion right away to spend some time with him.

Jessie sniffed as soon as she set the phone down on the table. She had agreed to pay him a visit when she finished her chores. Bev wouldn't find it difficult

    She shook her head. No way, she's not going to let that happen. She needs to be selfish and also think about her family. "Granddad, I don't believe that's a smart idea. He's only recently married, so entrusting him with such a large responsibility isn't the best option." she said immediately.He smiled and nodded. With what she was saying, she was making sense. "What do you think we should do?" His attention was fixed on her. Waiting for her to speak. "How about arranging for both of us to go on a honeymoon?"When she proposed, Jessie's side lips curled. She'd be confident that he'd agree with her. "Honey moon?" Din's grandfather inquired. Jessie smiled and nodded. "You mentioned that he needs a vacation and that you wanted him to be happy again. right?" He gave a slow nod. "But how can we compel him to leave? And, in your opinion, where is the best place to go?" Jessie came to a halt in her chair "Granddad, you can leave that to me. I'll get back to you as soon as I have more in

    Din sniffed once more. "I know this seems insane, but what if I told you that I've been losing my mind since the day I had her kiss me?""What?""Since Jessie arrived at the mansion, a lot has transpired, and I was furious with her for disrespecting me, so I retaliated with a kiss. I was sure it was the only thing that would irritate her.""Then you did it,""Then I did it and It felt great annoying her." Din's phone buzzed that minute and he picked it up to check who had texted him. He grimaced as he quickly tossed it down.Will was able to tell who it was from. "Your grandfather?" He asked.Din frowned and nodded. "He wants to meet up with me and Jessie,"***Around 10:30 p.m., Jessie received a call from Din. She had waited for him to return home and had slept off on the long couch. She took up the phone and answered it with her tired voice, but she wasn't expecting to hear the voice of someone else. Williams had introduced himself and informed her that he had Din with him and the

    When she was finished, Jessie went over to Din's bed. And when she leaned in to look at him, he was still sleeping and already sweaty. She returned to him after increasing the Air conditioner. She sat down next to him to take his temperature once more. She no longer hates him, and all she could see was a wealthy guy in pain, alone and without support or affection. The more she looked at him, the more he appeared to be alone.She removed the blanket off his body because of the heat it was causing him, and as she was about to get out of bed, she was pulled back. Din had her in his arms now, and Jessie was struggling to get free. He had pinned her down with too much force."Din." She called. Still struggling. "Mr. Cooper?" He grumbled as he turned to the other side after she called again. She breathed a sigh of relief as she let go of his hold. How much alcohol did he consume that he was oblivious to the fact that someone was beneath him?"Jessie," he moaned as he called her name, startl

    "Are you certain you have no recollection of what happened last night?" She inquired. Her eyes were wide as she awaited the response."Is there anything I should remember?" He let out his narrowed face and walked up to the door to open it.Jessie trailed him. "Mr. Cooper, no, no. I'm just curious."Din sucked his bottom teeth and turned to face her. "Now that I think about it, I believe I recall something.""You do? What exactly is it?""I had the impression that you did something to me while I was sleeping..." He bent and sought to align his features with hers. Jessie's heart began to rush, and Din began to laugh, leaving Jessie perplexed. He smirked as he lifted his head. "You should've seen your expression. This was how your eyes looked." He laughed again after demonstrating how her eyes were. "Someone would have thought you'd done something, Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure Will was the one who drove me home."Jessie gave a slow nod. "He was the one,""Just make sure you're ready for to

    "When we talked yesterday night after he took Din home, he seemed like a decent guy." Jessie said.Taylor got up from the couch and stood in front of Jessie, who was looking up at her. "I've said enough about myself. I'd like to hear your story.""It's not a big deal. It was just that I was thinking about where I wanted to travel on my honeymoon with Din then something came to mind.""Honeymoon? What am I missing out on?""His grandfather had made up his mind to retire from the business.""I think that's a wonderful thing. "You are finally going to be rid of him" Taylor was able to see Jessie's reaction once she finished speaking. "Or don't you want to?""It isn't that simple."Taylor moved back in her seat. "Please don't tell me you've already fallen in love with him. Keep in mind that this is a business thing, and he is in love with another woman.""Nonsense. I'm not in love with him." She wasn't, of course; she merely feels sympathy for him, not love."Then why are you taking so lo

    Beth leaped to her feet. She was dissatisfied with everything. How much longer must she wait? How much longer must she keep up with Jessie? Or his grandfather to finally get her own happy ending? "Can't you see what he's doing to you?" When she yelled, Din looked up at her. "He's playing games with you because he hates me.""That isn't true." Din was adamant that Beth was not the reason his grandfather was going too far with everything."He wants you to fall in love with her on your honeymoon. And that is his plan, babe, and that woman? Jessie! I'm very convinced she set it all up so she could have you."Din rose to his feet and took Beth's hands in his. "My love, it's all in your head." He spoke to her calmly. "Grandfather won't stoop that low.""And how did you know that? He has used you in the past to get you to do a lot of things, so you won't be with me. Do you recall your blind date with Mandy? Camilla? Gloria? I'm not even going to disclose names because it's just too much. He

    "But..." Bev pondered for a bit. "That makes a lot of sense." She finally agreed. "So I'm the odd one , and Jessie isn't?" She scoffed. "I'll just have to refer to her as weird.""And why is that?""Because she is a weirdo. She is unpredictable, and no one knew about her and Marco's breakup. So, certainly, she's a weirdo."Sierra locked her focus on Bev. "Perhaps she doesn't want to tell anyone about it. That doesn't make her a freak.""I'm going to the pouch," Jessie said as she left the room. "I'm in desperate need of some fresh air.""Do you see what I mean? Weirdo." She looked at Sierra."But, if you join us, it will be a lot of fun." Sierra shook her head and tossed the pad to the couch."If you don't concentrate, you will die." Bev screamed as she focused back on the game."I need some fresh air, and I'm not interested in your games.""All right, Jessie. Do what you want." Sierra then returned her attention to her game.Jessie walked away from them, hugging her huge sweater over

    James stopped and turned to face her. "What is it about your brother that makes you so afraid?" His hands went into his pockets as he inquired."I'm not afraid of my brother." She smirked. "So, please refrain from doing what you are about to do. You may come to regret it." She continued, but he was uninterested. He kept walking until he arrived in front of Din's front door.Sierra sighed as she turned around to leave. She was helpless to stop him.Before entering Din's room, James knocked. When he entered, it was still dark, so he went for the light switch and flicked it on. His gaze was drawn to the picture on the table. He stepped over to the table and took it. As he spoke, he smirked. "I remember the day you took this."Din stood up and glanced at his cousin from where he had been lying down. He let out a sigh. "If it's not you, it's Jessie," He sighed again.James dropped the photo and sat on the chair that was close to the bed. "How come you despise her so much? You obviously do,

    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. "
