Jessica was surprised; she hadn't expected to hear those words escape from Justin's lips. All of a sudden, she felt like she had been hit with a thousand bricks. All the things she had said, how much of it had he heard?Jessica swallowed hard as Justin drew her to his side and repeated his words. "Please stay with me," he said as his eyes roamed over her, his stare carving a hot path down the front of her chest.She simply nodded her head and sat down beside him. Justin lifted himself up from the bed and leaned his back on the headboard, pulling Jessica even closer to him.Jessica gulped and shut her eyes momentarily; she dreaded the question she was about to ask but knew she had to ask it. She needed to know just how much of what she said he had heard."How long have you been awake?" Jessica said casually, putting on a fake smile even though she was so tense inside.Justin knew; he knew just why she had asked the question, and he knew what reply to give. "I am just waking up now. I t
Oh! That was it! Justin fell onto the bed and placed his hand over his head. He had really messed up big time; he knew he had. Right then, the memory of all the things he had said came flooding back to his brain.He remembered how he had told her she meant nothing to him, she was just another girl, a girl available when he needed to satisfy his sexual desires. That must have hurt.He looked up at Jessica, who spared him no glance. "I am so sorry, Jess. To be very honest, I didn't mean any of the things I had said. I made everything all up; I wanted to say the most hurtful things to you. I wanted to hurt you just as much as you hurt me. Please, you have to believe me." He rose up from the bed and pulled Jessica in for a hug."I am so, so sorry. I am really sorry," he repeated. Jessica did not resist. She just pondered on whether to believe him or not. Was he saying the things he said now because he wanted to get some, or was he really being sincere?Jessica eventually decided to go wit
Jessica smiled at him as he carried her to the bed. He laid her down and gazed into her sparkling brown eyes. With one hand, he brushed her hair backward, carefully taking in her beauty. He parted his lips and said, "I am so sorry I didn't introduce Silver to you. I really wanted to." He planted a kiss on her lips. Jessica's eyes fluttered shut; when she opened them again, all Justin saw was desire.It was crystal clear. She wanted him, maybe just as much as he wanted her. He planted another kiss on her neck, "I am so sorry for everything that happened today." Jessica nodded her head; she had heard enough of the pleas. All she wanted right now was for him to spring into action.Justin kissed her sensually on the lips, "I am sorry…" But before he could finish talking, Jessica's mouth possessed his, drowning any remaining words he had left. All she wanted was to have a good time with her man. Justin, with his mouth and tongue, pleasured Jessica, giving her an experience that was bound to
Jessica held his gaze for a few more seconds, lost in his eyes. She raised her hand to his brows and traced them. A tentative smile appeared on Justin's lips as the corners of his mouth curled up in a wicked grin."You are simply the best," Jessica said, her voice laced with sincerity. Justin tilted his head to the side, pulled her close, and gave her a kiss on the lips before whispering, "I know I am." Jessica was breathless. She wanted more. Her heart was throbbing faster than it should.She wanted him to take her then and there. If they were alone, that would have happened, but Kelvin was there. As if they had the same thoughts running through their minds, Justin and Jessica glanced at Kelvin through the rearview mirror at the same time.Kelvin, who had been looking at them, was caught off guard. Justin arched an eyebrow as if asking him what exactly he thought he was doing sneaking peeks at them.He immediately coughed anxiously, "I... I didn't see anything, sir, I swear," he stut
Jessica was surprised. What was he saying? She was still going, but not with an airplane? Those words confused her even more. Justin glanced at Kelvin and instructed, "Take us to the hangar.""Okay, sir." Kelvin immediately drove off. Using another route, he arrived at the airport hangar. Jessica's eyes grew wide as a private jet came into view.Justin on the other hand couldn't take his eyes off her. He had been waiting to get that reaction from her, seeing her as surprised as can be made him chuckle softly. As long as she was his woman, even as a pretend wife, she would always get the best of all the good things in life."Well, there you go," he said, tearing Jessica's gaze away from the private jet and onto him."You mean I get to travel in that?" she quizzed."Yes, you do. Now get out of the car; the earlier you take off, the better." Justin got out of his side of the car and breathed in the cool, fresh air, allowing it to envelop his body.Jessica, on the other hand, was waiting
Jessica walked into the hospital. The smell of antiseptic hung heavily in the air. She went to the reception and met several nurses there. It was a very big hospital with different departments."Good afternoon, ma'am, how may I help you?" the nurse she approached asked."I am here to see Dr. Richard Anderson, the orthopedic hand surgeon," Jessica replied. As soon as the words left her mouth, the nurse's eyes lit up, "Are you Dr. Jessica?" she inquired excitedly.Jessica was a bit thrown aback; it had been quite a while since someone addressed her as Dr. Jessica. Just the mere thought of how long it had been made her eyes misty."I am Dr. Jessica," she repeated the words in a bid to hear them one more time, wanting to know how it would feel coming out of her own mouth. It felt great, just as she had imagined it would.The nurse was busy dialing a number. She was calling the doctor to inform him that Jessica had arrived. After a few seconds of conversation, she put down the receiver and
Jessica's eyes were fixated on the doctor as she waited to hear what the bad news was. Her heart was beating faster than normal. Was her hand really irreparable? Would she never be able to hold a scalpel with her hand again? Was she truly done as a surgeon? A million thoughts swirled through Jessica's mind.Dr. Richard, perceiving her anxiety, studied her carefully before a smile spread across his face."What is the bad news, doctor?" Jessica questioned. She didn't understand why he was smiling when what was at hand wasn't something to smile about. What she didn't know was that Dr. Richard only smiled to ease her tension."Well, Dr. Jessica, being a doctor, I am sure you are well aware of how dangerous having damaged tendons and nerves can be, especially in a sensitive place like the fingers," Dr. Richard explained calmly. Jessica already knew where the conversation was headed.She already knew Dr. Richard was about to tell her that her tendons and nerves were damaged. What she didn't
Jessica could not fathom the reason behind Justin asking her to start immediately; she was confused. She waited patiently for him to explain himself.Justin, who was already mapping out how everything was going to pan out in his head, smiled and leaned backward in his chair, swinging it sideways."You heard right, my dear. Tomorrow," he said with a cool, low tone. Justin was greeted with silence from the other end of the call as Jessica pondered in confusion why he wanted her to start so soon. She wondered if he was really trying to get rid of her.Justin, sensing that something was wrong, sat up in his chair and asked, "Is everything alright? Don't you want to start tomorrow? You just said now that Dr. Richard mentioned it would be best to start as soon as possible. I actually thought you would be happy to start tomorrow. What is wrong, Jess?" he sighed.Jessica looked around the hallway where she made the call from, she went close to a wall and leaned against it, while thinking of t
