2021-03-28 01:28:22Evan's POV
As the clock struck twelve, I was out of my office and into my Lamborghini and driving towards my mansion. Apart from the mansions I owned in Paris, Italy, London, Indonesia, Canada and Bora Bora, I loved the one in Brooklyn the most. I never called it home though. To me, a home was having someone or a family to go to, and I didn't.
Mom had already called me three times to ask if I was ready for the trip to the Cayman Islands.
Jessica roamed around the house and I headed straight for my shower. I shampooed my hair, took a long shower, and changed into a simple T-shirt and pants with sneakers.
Afterwards, I dropped Jessica off at her work place. She wanted me to be intimate with her but I wasn't into her like that anymore. The feelings had faded and I was only tolerating her presence to get rid of the feelings that were building for Jasmine.
I did not want to be involved with any of my employees.As I arrived at my p

IMPERFECT Assistant Chapter 11: What To Do?
Jasmine's POVAfter work on Tuesday, I went to the hospital to see my mom. I walked slowly to the room she was in. I hated hospitals. The scent of antibacterial cleaning products lingered in the halls and it always felt like the cold hands of death were reaching for me.I pushed in room fourteen and saw my mother lying down on the bed with machines attached to her to help her breathe, a mask over her nostril area to flow oxygen to her lungs, and a monitor beeping to indicate her heart rate. She looked like she was asleep. Or dead."Mom, I'm here. I know you're slipping away from me and Zenia as the days go by, but I'll do something to get that money so you can have a successful lung transplant. I can't let you die knowing I've done absolutely nothing to save you. I don't care if I have to sell my body to make that money, I'll do it for you Mommy."I buried my face at the side of my mother and I began crying bitterly. I hated seeing her like

Evan's POVI was already tired of seeing sea water and seasickness had come onto me. I just wanted to to be back in my office, in my chair, doing what I loved to do most. Work. I shouldn't have agreed to come on this god forsaken sea voyage.I laid in my cabin and tried to relax and stop having regrets.We had finally arrived at the Cayman Islands at night fall. The captain docked the boat at an island called Grand Cayman, which is the largest of the three islands.The Cayman Islands are made up of three islands: Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. The largest, Grand Cayman, has a cosmopolitan vibe, gourmet restaurants, world-class diving and the famous Seven Mile Beach. Cayman Brac is a nature lover's paradise with stunning diving and breathtaking walks along the rocky bluff. The smallest island, Little Cayman, is home to just one hundred and fifty people. Visitors, like myself, enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and sunny sky.&nbs

Jasmine's POVWhen I got home from an exhausting day at the office, I threw myself down on the couch. It was obvious that Mr. Hollen was absent because the work load had gone into oblivion and beyond and nothing was going smoothly. Meetings after meetings were rescheduled and put off, deadlines weren't being met, and the list went on.When Mr. Hollen gets back, he's going to flip out.My cellphone rang, causing me to leap. I looked at the number.Unknown.I hated answering unknown numbers but I answered anyway."This is Jasmine," I spoke."Hello Jasmine. It's Dr. Shannon from the hospital."My heart stopped."Your mother is awake and she wishes to see you and your sister."My heart started beating again."Thank you. We'll be there as soon as possible.""Okay. Goodbye.""Goodbye."I got up and went to find my sister.

Jasmine's POV"Jasmine. I've missed you so much baby. How are you?" his voice spoke.I froze, hysteria coming over me as I tried to control my tears and emotions.Why was he calling me? What did he want?For my entire life, I had only been involved with one guy and one guy only. And that took place at my old college when I was twenty.Bradley Pittsburg and I dated for a year and a half and, when we were about to graduate, he dumped me out of nowhere, without an explanation or a reason.I was so madly in love with him, he was my first everything, but he showed himself, broke my heart and treated me like dirt. I always assumed that he was cheating all along, or he desperately wanted to move on with someone else. What ever the reason was, it still haunted me because I was such a good girlfriend to him. Since the break up, I separated myself from everyone else, especially my friends, thinking that they would eventually walk awa

Evan's POVWednesday came quickly and I was finally heading back to my company.I had flown out of the Cayman Islands on Tuesday afternoon when I received an important phone call from Josh that stated that I would have to be present on Wednesday morning to seal the deal with a fortune company we'd e been targeting for over a year now.I pulled into my private parking spot in my black metallic Audi. I took the private elevator up and arrived at my floor. I stepped out of the elevator and adjusted my tie as I strolled towards my office. I was stopped on the way there by an overwrought secretary."Mr. Hollen. Welcome back sir. Sir, these are the papers... and the documents... and the dates and times of the..." she was going on and on.I scooted past her and went directly into my office without a word.For Pete's sake, what the hell happened when I left?Miss Blackman knocked.

Jasmine's POV"I didn't know you knew Bradley Pittsburg," a voice quipped from behind me and startled me, briefly, before I turned around in my chair and saw Mr. Hollen leaning on the closed door, hands inside his pants pockets, looking at me with raised eyebrows."Umm, yeah... I've known him since college," I answered.His grey eyes locked on me, burning me to my soul. He twitched his bottom lip as if he had a distasteful substance in his mouth. He straightened his posture, and his suit, and I couldn't help but to see how damn sexy and even more handsome he was; but he was upset about something. I knew he was having a hectic day but he was looking at me like he wanted to send me to my grave.What did I do wrong this time?"So you two were close?" he asked, coming over to my desk.Mr. Hollen had never been interested in my personal life, or even asked about it, but now here he was asking about Bradley.What's up

Jasmine's POVThe burning sensation in my chest wasn't from any happiness or lust; it was from the anger getting stored there; and I kept my sanity because I couldn't be completely bothered by Mr. Hollen and Jessica Hills. I had a younger sister to look after and a dying mother to worry about.Although it did come as a shock at first because he was described as a 'playboy bachelor'; in a funny kind of way, I was happy he was finally settling down with someone.I just hated it was her.________________________At the end of the day I gathered my things and stuffed my belongings into my bag. I refreshed myself with a glass of water and headed for the elevator. As I got in he got in with me."Hi," he greeted with a smile I'd never seen."Good afternoon, sir.""Can we talk?""About what, Mr. Hollen?""About us."My eyes popped out of their sockets as my ears collected his words. Us?

Now, all of a sudden, Bradley was back in town and he was so interested in having her back in his life.Didn't he have a chance to keep her in it when she was in college?I raked my fingers through my hair and got into my car. I drove home slowly, thoughts floating through my dreamy head.When I got to my house -- a mansion, of course -- Jessica was standing by the gate with an angry expression on her face. She walked up to my car immediately."Baby I'm so happy you're here. THESE MORONS WOULDN'T LET ME IN UNLESS YOU CAME!" she screamed and stomped her feet as if she was a child.I rolled down the car's window and my guards opened the gates.

Three weeks laterJasmine's POVEvan and I had been lying in bed when an idea crossed my mind. I had realized that there were so such to him that I didn't know about as yet and so many unanswered questions.I gently tugged on his shoulder and he turned towards me with a smiling face and messy hair."Can't sleep?" he asked."Can I ask you something?" I asked, ignoring his question."Sure, what is it?""Why do you give women white roses when you're through with them?"He chuckled and ran his hands over his face."When I was a little boy, I used to go to my great grandmother's house a lot before she passed. Right before she got sick, she started planting a garden of white roses, and I assisted her sometimes. Right before the very first blossom of the roses, she passed. She never got the chance to see her white garden, and I took it very hard. So, I use white roses to tell women goodbye, and that they're dead to me."I was shoc

Evan's POV"Son, we cannot seem to get an exact location on Jasmine. We tried tracking her cellphone, but we lost the connection," my father explained on the other end of the phone.I was already settled in my private jet, EJ next to me.Zenia! I thought and dialed her number."Hello?""Zen. It's Evan. I need Jasmine's exact address.""I can't provide you with such.""Zenia, please! I need to get to your sister as soon as possible!" I begged."I swore to secrecy. I'll be betraying Jasmine if I tell you."I knew, at this point, she wasn't going to give me the address unless I did something I never enjoyed doing.

IMPERFECT Assistant Chapter 60: Where It Hurts
Evan's POV"I'm going upstairs to get Aria," I told my mother."I'll be waiting right here," Mom replied before sitting on the couch I had slept on for the night.I climbed the stairs while my head floated to another dimension. My memories were only of putting Jasmine and Jevan out the house. The way she cried and pleaded to me. The way she looked at me when she tore up the check. The way Jevan looked at me when he was out the door in his mother's arms. The way her last words hurt me: "Go to hell Evan Hollen."It was haunting and it was painful. My heart squeezed against my chest as if it wanted to break free. I couldn't handle all of the heaviness. I needed to fix this and fast."Aria, we have to leave right now," I said as I entered the bedroom.She was sitting at the dressing table applying her makeup and already dressed."What's going on?""Mom is downstairs. She did a DNA test and the results stated t
IMPERFECT Assistant Chapter 59: Moving On
Jasmine's POVEmma and I sat down on the patio while Zenia was inside with Jevan."Jasmine, I need you to be very honest with me. I'm not here to judge you or yell at you and belittle you. I'm here for the truth. Can someone else be the father of baby Jevan?"I shook my head no."Could Bradley Pittsburg have drugged you and had sex with you without your permission and knowledge?""No, Emma!" I snapped at her but quickly regretted it. "It never got to a stage where anything like that could have happened. I know what I did at the gala was messed up, and I know why Evan had doubts in the beginning, but I never slept with Bradley, or anyone else for that matter. I was always conscious when I was with Bradley, and never once had he forced himself onto me. We never even kissed. It was just a friendly get together whenever we got together and nothing more."I was reaching a point where I couldn't stand this anymore. Ev

I had just put Jevan down for his nap and I was singing sweetly to him. I kissed his little cheek and went to find Evan.A large brown envelope was thrown at me when I approached him in the living room."Who else you slept with, huh? YOU LYING, CHEATING BITCH!" he blasted out at me.I stood there, dumbstruck by his sudden behavior and tone of voice."What are you talking about?""You're going play dumb now? You're gonna stand your ass there and pretend you don't know what the hell I'm talking about?!""Evan! I don't know what the hell you're talking about!"
IMPERFECT Assistant Chapter 57: And The DNA Test Says
Evan's POVHe had my grey eyes, my hair texture and color, and my complexion when I was newly born. Mom took countless pictures of when Emily and I were babies, and Jevan resembled me. I had no doubt in my mind; he was absolutely my son.Jasmine had been discharged the following day after she had given birth. I took her and the baby back home. I knew I said that, when the baby came, Jasmine would have to find somewhere to stay, but Jevan was too young to be outdoors so soon, and the police detectives still hadn't found out who attacked her during the early stage of the pregnancy. All of that just made me unsettled to have Jevan out there.I had already bought everything a baby needs: from cribs and countless pieces of clothes, to newborn baby formula. She had everything she needed for Jevan, and she wasn't to worry about a thing.I watched him as he slept so peacefully in the crib. Mom, Dad, EJ, Emily, Susan and Zenia met us at the hospital

You told me you were on the pill, and I still used protection with you most of the time.""I know that Evan. But accidents do happen."Lord, give me strength."You're mad, aren't you?" She looked like she was about to tear up."No. I just wasn't expecting this. Have you taken a pregnancy test? Have you been to the doctor?""No and no. I've just been throwing up a lot this morning and not feeling like myself.""Okay. Lets go." I took my jacket off the back of the chair, took my car keys and guided her out the office.I decided to bring her to Dr. Matador. He was an excellent OBGYN and didn't leak any information to the press for a quick buck. My parents trusted him and so did I."Hello, Mr. Hollen. What can I do for you today?
