*Chapter 67 What can I do for you to forgive me? *
The atmosphere in the room became tense up, everyone concentrating on the ruckus taking place at the back. They all mulled over if there was going to be a fight.
If so, who might win?
And did Nadia edit the results?
Thinking this, Jasmine recalled Nadia's words moments ago__
' Why are you crying? She deserved it,'.
Now she was cynical, did this two have a vendetta?
Everything came crashing down alongside the intense staring session when the next teacher came in. He ordered them to take their seats.
* Chapter 68 Gutsy Woman* It had been nearly ten minutes since Jasmine rang the bell of the apartment in the south of the city which she once shared with Lucia. Jasmine was irked as she tapped her feet impatiently. Putting up her arm, she checked the time on her Rolex. It was fifteen past four. " Why are you taking so long Lucia? I know you are in there. What are you up to?" grimaced Jasmine. In a last endeavor, she reached out to ring the bell however this time it opens up. " Was it always open or did that drama queen.." Lucia's words replayed in Jasmine's mind ' Remember when I pretended to be Carl's girlfriend to protect your relationship with Keith?
*Chapter 69 I will get you back your son * An eternity passed. Lucia was getting impatient, she bawled her fist to a juncture where her fake nails pierced into her palm. Yet, she still had an innocuous miserable expression on her face. While inside she cursed hard. ' You fool, why are you stupid Jasmine? Don't you get my hint? This girl is a fool. If she doesn't agree my plan won't work. ' Her eyes lit at an idea, and she turned her back to Jasmine dramatically, using this opportunity to pour the stinky liquid which generated easy waterworks. Now, her eyes were unbelievably moistening she turned with her hands folded. " Jasmine. I have nowhere to go, please can I patch with you?" her sad eyes looked up to Jasmine in anticipation. Bingo! This was her plan all along. I knew it. Jasmine was not going to let this happen. It was probably part of a devious plan to get close to Keith. Then, Jasmine recalled the dream she had. Though she trusts Keith's
* Chapter 70 So,I'm just a backup plan* Slightly pissed off, Jasmine brushed her way through the crowd of dancing people. Sweat, liquor, noise, and cigarettes held the atmosphere. She wore a simple velvet gown with her hair let down. But at this point,she wished she had it in a bun in fear of it being tugged on by the drunks. All the way through, she muttered apologies to the drunk people she bumped into. Others tried to pull her to themselves while some whistled at her. " Why can't the pole dancers not be as hot as she is?" One of the drunk men yelled and his friend agreed with a toast. " She is one-of-a-kind beauty!" Jasmine ignored their remarks, at the age of twenty-one. She did not need anyone to tell her she was beautiful, it was a fact now. Veering to her left, Jasmine walked under the pink diamond chandelier and then breezed past the elevator. She desperately pressed the button and waited for it to come down before getting in. Upon reaching
* Chapter 71 it's a deal then* The evening sun cast long shadows on the ground. The slanting rays of the setting sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky. At this point, Jasmine scrambled out of the bathroom with solely a towel at the ring of her phone. She had been awaiting the call since morning. " Hi there " she waved shyly to the man on the screen who was taking off his rainproof jacket. His back faced her. Getting this, Keith turned around to face his wife. " Saw your missed call" he adjusted. " I was trying to get to you. How was the flight?" She consulted in a worried-filled voice. Keith, now sitting on the bed, pulled out his rain boots, emptying
Chapter 72: Why would I ever help you? Unlocking the door to the outhouse, Lucia was received with the dusty house and every piece of furniture was clothed with nylons. She glanced at May with an aggravated stare. Pulling back, May raised her shoulders and defended " Hey don't look at me like that. It has been quite a while since anyone has occupied this outhouse. It's still in good shape just needs some sweeping" "Lead the way then" piped Lucia. " Little girl, stay within your limits. Don't pretend to be a princess when you are only the daughter of a maid. Do you expect me to clean it up for you?" Annoyed, May Sylvester aired out her mind and thumped out of there leaving Lucia livid. Lucia rolled her fis
* Chapter 73 Look who's being sweet* In the car ride to school, Jasmine took notice of the new driver constantly throwing a gaze at the rear-view mirror. His face is full of curiosity. " You new eh?" Jasmine raised a question. Well. She knew the answer. The new driver was a blonde with green eyes. He seemed to be in his early thirties and had a cute cleft chin which made him look even more charming. He threw a glance back at Jasmine and their eyes clashed " That obvious?" " Ya. I'm Jasmine by the way." She was trying to make a conversation in between the dead silence. It was almost choking. Usually during her rides with Keith, she would talk his ears off hence she was not used to the graveyard silence in the car.
* Chapter 74 She can keep the companies* " Why did you call me? Miss me?" Carl asked wearing an impish smile. His eyes were on Jasmine, they skim over her bare arms which were held into her mug gracefully. Seeing this, Jasmine rolled her eyes " Isn't it too early to act like the pervert that you are." " Oh, baby. If only you know how much I missed you. When I saw your missed call this morning I want bewildered. I called back immediately ...yeah I wasn't dreaming " " Cut the crap. We both know O won't fall for your tricks " she chuckled lightly. Carl unleash a thick laugh, He ran a hand into his hair while a smirk played on his lips " Hey
* Chapter 75 Sasha Norman * The next few days were hectic for Jasmine, it was school home then extra lessons which she had started. The home was quiet, in fact too quiet. Jasmine suspected that Lucia was indeed brewing something awful in that evil pot of hers and in no time it would explode. It made her worry. Changing things in the present had changed her past. So she had no clue about Lucia's plans coupled with the fact that her memory is gapped. She had been reading up information online and spent most time in the library at home to enhance her knowledge about rebirth. Only a few were nonfiction. If she was not reborn, she too who have believed it was unreal. Jasmine was on her dozen book about rebirth
