Few minutes after Jasmine had received the call, the door to the restroom opened and Ella walked in carrying a bag with her. “Look at what he did to you,” she cried as she walked towards her.“It’s nothing. Did you bring what I asked for?” Jasmine asked as she took the bag from Ella. “Yes I did,” Ella nodded. Jasmine had texted her, asking her to bring her a fresh set of clothes to change into as she couldn’t come home.“Now hurry up and get dressed before that boss of yours loses his temper,” she urged. Jasmine nodded and started changing. “I’m so sorry for stressing you out like this. I hope your boss won't mind.”Ella waved her hand showing that she wasn’t upset. “You’d do the same for me if I was in your situation. And as for the old pig, I’ll handle him. The only reason he makes my life a living hell is because I have refused to let him get into my pants.”“What would I do without you?” Jasmine asked as she finished buttoning up her shirt.“Nothing,” Ella said and started brus
“To show your boss what real power is,” Austin said and got out of the car. Ella also got out of the car and approached Austin. “Mr Gerano, what do you mean?” she asked, confused by his statement. Austin smiled and held her wrist. “Come, let me show you,” he said and started walking towards the building. Ella had many questions she wanted to ask but she knew that Austin would just beat around the bush instead of answering her directly and so, she kept mute and let him lead her.They entered the building and all eyes fell on them. What followed next was silence, such that if a pin dropped, it would be clearly heard. Everyone was shocked to see the young heir of the Geranos at their company. Ella, who was not used to being the center of attention, instantly hid behind Austin. For once, she loved that he was much taller than her as she was able to disappear completely. Austin tilted his head to the side and furrowed his brows on seeing that Ella was hiding behind him. “You do reali
Ella and Austin arrived at her house really late in the evening. They would have arrived sooner if Austin did not have multiple meetings to which he dragged her too.She suggested taking a cab home but he refused saying that the people he was going to be meeting were old and boring people whose jokes he couldn’t stand.And so, he dragged her to the meeting. Unknown to Ella, there was another reason he took her there and she found out about it when they had met the old couple. It seemed that every time Austin met or spoke with them, they would always ask about his girlfriend and every time he told them he didn't have any, they would always pressurize him into getting one.When they asked him about the young lady he had brought along with him, he didn’t think twice before introducing her as his girlfriend much to Ella’s dismay. He didn’t realize it but he was causing problems for her. There were not a real couple and so, sooner or later, people were bound to find out. They wouldn’t a
“This is where you live?” Ella asked in shock as she looked at the huge mansion before her. They had just arrived at Austin’s mansion and all she could say was ‘Wow’. She knew the Gerano’s were rich but she didn’t expect that they were this rich.The mansion before her was magnificent and she had never seen anything like it. Everything from the floor to the pillars screamed money.“I haven’t moved in yet,” Austin said to her before getting out of the car. Just like when Justin arrived at his own house, a group of helpers were waiting for Austin to get out of the car so they could welcome him.“I see a second mansion, is that for your brother?” she probed to which Austin nodded in affirmation. A middle aged woman also came forward and bowed to the young heir. “Good evening young master, it’s good to finally have you here,” she said. “I am Jeanine.”Austin nodded and smiled a little. “Please prepare my room and the guest room, she will be sleeping here tonight,” he informed, pointing
“Mr Gerano, please calm down,” Jasmine pleaded. “we can all discuss this like mature adults.” Discuss what Miss Baxter?” Austin asked irritably. “I do not want to hear anything all I want is that Miss Nelson over there pays me my money.” He turned to Ella who quickly hid behind Jasmine's back again in fear. “You better come out of there or else I'm warning that I’ll do something you do not like,” Austin threatened. “You have ten seconds to come out,” he added seeing that Ella refused to move from her spot. This woman was really testing his patience and she would regret it. Ella nudged Jasmine a bit. “Please do something. This guy is crazy and can do anything,” she said in a pleading voice. “I do not want to work as a helper in his house.”“Why couldn't you just have eaten more carefully,” Jasmine scolded her friend. “I always told you that your bad eating habit would get you into trouble one day and look at where we are, in trouble”“Five more seconds Miss Nelson,” Austin told th
After Jasmine and Ella finished reading the news, they returned the tablet back to Charlotte with shaky hands. “Ma’am this is not true,” they said.“Of course I know it’s not. You're only in this position because they put you there,” Charlotte said while glaring at Austin. The latter quickly looked away from his aunt’s eyes. “You cannot go back to your respective house for now,” Charlotte informed.“Why ma’am?" Jasmine and Ella asked at the same time."Because reporters are already outside your houses and they want an interview with both of you and trust me when I say it's not going to end anytime soon," Charlotte stated."The media have a lot of influence and at the slightest bit of information, they are going to crowd you.""You two will be moved to a new house. Don't worry your parents have been informed as well and they do not object to it," Charlotte told the two women."Ok ma'am," Jasmine agreed. It wasn't like she had much of a choice anyways. Charlotte smiled in satisfacti
After Jasmine finished talking with her mother, she proceeded to her room to take a shower. As she walked towards the room, she realized that she had no clothes to change into.However, on getting to her room she saw that her luggage and her stuff had already been moved to the mansion.She smiled to herself as she realized that it was her mother's doing. What would she do without her? 'Thank you mom,' she muttered to herself as she sorted out her luggage.She quickly proceeded into the shower to have a bath as she k didn't think that justin would cut her some slack especially after all that happened.She finished getting ready twenty minutes later and quickly left the house. Just as she was thinking of how to get to the office from the mansion, she saw a guard waiting for her outside.Good morning ma'am, the guard greeted "Good morning Jasmine replied with a smile on her face, trying to be as polite as possible."My name is Cole and I will be your personal guard from now on," he inf
Jasmine glanced at the table clock and saw that it was already twelve o'clock. Her father's driver would arrive to pick her up in fifteen minutes and she still hadn't told Justin that she would be going out.The truth was that she was too embarrassed to face him as she didn't want what happened earlier to repeat itself.She would have to face him sooner or later if she wanted to leave for lunch.Taking a deep breath, she stood up from her seat and knocked on his door."Come in," she heard him say. She slowly opened the door and walked into his office.Justin was sitting on the sofa in his office. His legs were crossed and he was reading some files.'God, he looks like a model!' Jasmine thought to herself. And as she did, she mentally scolded herself for having such thoughts about Justin."Do you have something to say to me or are you going to keep standing in my office?" Justin said sharply."Well sir, can I go out for lunch?" Jasmine asked.Justin put the files that were on his lap o

It seemed just like yesterday when she met Justin for the first time. She remembered how much she had hated him and how much she wanted to kill him for making her life such a living hell and now, she was getting married to him a few moments from now.Life was truly unpredictable as no one would have ever imagined that the man who was once the cause of her sorrow would be the source of her happiness.“Oh my goodness, you look so beautiful,” her mother exclaimed as she entered the room. “And with that red hair of yours, you’re bound to be the star today,” Hilda praised.“Mom, it seems that you have forgotten about the fact that you also have red hair and about the fact that Arabella is also getting married today," Jasmine pointed out.Yes, Arabella and Austin were also getting married on the same day as Jasmine and Justin. After a lot of deliberation, Charlotte and Danielle decided to have the two couples' wedding on the same day. Arabella and Jasmine had no problems with it neither
Jasmine’s eyes slowly fluttered open, and when she was fully awake, she saw herself staring at a naked chest, the one she had spent the night with.She slowly lifted her head and found a pair of deep blue eyes staring at her with a smile on his face. “Good morning, my love,” he said in a hoarse voice, and he kissed her forehead.“Good morning,” Jasmine answered, and she snuggled closer to him as she enjoyed the warmth that was radiating from his body.“Do you feel sore down there?” Justin asked her.“You kept me up till midnight and showed me no mercy, how do you think I feel?” Jasmine fired at Justin.“Well it’s your fault as you seduced me and made me lose my self control,” Justin quickly defended himself.“How is it my fault?” Jasmine cried out.“You know what you did,” Justin shrugged casually, and he turned and got out of bed, much to Jasmine's displeasure.“Where are you going?” Jasmine asked as she tried her best not to look at his body.Damn, with a body like that, she would n
Jasmine looked at herself in the mirror after the make-up artist was done and she saw that he had done really heavy make-up on her.She sighed resignedly as she didn't want a heavy make-up as she didn't want to go through the stress of removing it later.The dinner would only last for a short while after which she would have to take it off as she wouldn't be able to sleep in her make-up."Thank you," Jasmine said instead of complaining. There was no point in complaining aa the makeup was already done.She then stood up from her seat and headed downstairs to the living room where Charlotte and Jayden were seated watching cartoons. It's said that Jayden had also forced Charlotte into watching cartoons with him."Oh wow! " Charlotte exclaimed when she saw Jasmine. She quickly passed the cartoon and then carried Jayden to go and meet Jasmine." oh honey you look so good "Charlotte complimented and it could be seen from the expression that he meant every word of that compliment."Thank yo
Jasmine opened her eyes and saw that the bed was empty. She got up abruptly and was about to freak out about Jayden not being in the bed when she noticed that Justin wasn't there as well.That meant Justin must have probably taken Jayden. She got out of bed and washed her face before heading downstairs.She heard Justin's and Jayden's laughter coming from the dining table and so she went there."Good morning, Mrs Gerano," Jasmine greeted when she saw Charlotte at the table.Charlotte was about to scold her for being so formal with her but then she remembered that she had promised Justin not to tell Jasmine that he planned to propose to her."Good morning dear, how was your night?" Charlotte asked."It was fine," Charlotte answered."Mama," Jayden said excitedly and he opened his arms so Jasmine could carry him.Jasmine furrowed her brows at Justin. "We've been teaching him a few things," he explained.She nodded and then carried Jayden. "How are you?" She asked and started to play wi
"Where are they?" Sebastian asked angrily as he came downstairs."What's wrong honey, why are you so mad?" Charlotte asked, feigning ignorance as to why Sebastian was so mad."Diego, Austin and Justin, where are they?" Sebastian asked."Justin went out," Arabella pointed out."Yes, he went out to bring Jasmine back. She is here and that means that he is back so where are the three of them?" Sebastian asked."We honestly do not know daddy," Isabella said and rubbed her tummy in an effort to stop Sebastian from interrogating them.Her plan worked as Sebastian stopped asking them questions."Here, hold him," Sebastian said, handing over Jayden to Jasmine.Jayden smiled upon seeing Jasmine as he showed her the scrunchie she had given him. Jasmine pinched his cheeks lightly and this made him smile even wider."Don't worry, I'll find them myself," Sebastian said and he brought out his phone and opened an app.He input their phone numbers and soon after, their exact location came up.Without
Jasmine got to her father's house and she was greeted by her mother when she got there."What's wrong? Why are you here so late in the night?" She asked."Nothing," Jasmine answered. "Are Dad and Chase at home?""No, they still have some problems at their warehouse and so, they are there," Hilda answered."Can I stay here for the night?" Jasmine asked."Of course you can, you didn't even need to ask," Hilda said.Jasmine nodded and immediately headed up to her room. Hidla however followed her as she could tell that something was bothering her daughter."Wait, did you and Justin get into a fight?" Hilda asked."No we didn't, mom," Jasmine answered."Then what is bothering you?" Hilda continued to probe. "I'm not leaving here until you tell me what's wrong.""Mom, can we talk about this in the morning?" Jasmine's request. "Oh no, young lady, the longer you keep it in, the longer damage that thing will cause," Hilda said."No, tell me what is wrong," she insisted and then walked over t
"I know that he is Justin Gerano's son," Jasmine stated and she watched how the colour drained from the already pale face of May."What are you talking about?" May managed to ask after she had regained a bit of her composure."Drop the act," Jasmine said. "I already know who you are and what happened between you and Justin three years ago," Jasmine told May."I knew who you were and figured out who Jayden was from the first time I met him at the restaurant.""And even if I didn't know who you were, I know my boyfriend and I have seen his childhood pictures," she said." I would have raised questions as to why your son looked a lot like my boyfriend," Jasmine pointed out. May sighed in resignation upon seeing that there was no way she could deny the truth anymore."I'm not here to separate you from Justin," May assured Jasmine."I know that," Jasmine said. "If you were, you would have gone to The Gerano Mansion ever since you arrived in the country."May heaved a sigh of relief upon s
