Meanwhile...Back at the office, Carly was still giving Raina death glares. "I only left for a few days and you started misbehaving. Are you saying you can't behave yourself if I'm not around?""I don't know what you're talking about Carly." Raina replied working on some papers. "Hmph! That aside. What just happened in here? Isn't that the other guy from before? How come he now works for you? Did you go behind my back to bully him?" Carly asked. Bully him? Raina scoffed inwardly, he doesn't even want to respect her and Carly thinks he can be bullied? "He works as my personal bodyguard and driver. I have no idea what you're talking about in terms of bullying. I'm not a bully." She replied. "Says the woman who almost slapped his worker if I hadn't intervened. How did you guys meet again?"Raina knowing Carly too well explained everything, she won't stop until she gets what she wants. "Wow. I can't believe you did all that and didn't tell me anything. Tell me the truth, you asked hi
Raina can't have enough of her troublesome friend. Asking her bodyguard to have dinner with them without her permission. And she's still proud of what she is doing. "I don't think it's appropriate for me to do that. I'll just wait outside for her."Jasper refused. "At least you're thinking like a sensible person now." Raina said. "No. You're not going anywhere. You should stay here and have dinner with us. Don't argue with me!" Carly yelled. Jasper gave up after trying to convince her to no avail. He didn't miss Raina's glares. He smiled innocently, it's not his fault that her friend wants him to stay with them for dinner. They placed an order which was brought to them in no time. "So tell me about yourself Jasper." Carly asked. "Can we eat in peace and maintain table manners?" Raina suggested bitterly. Carly hissed, "I did not ask you anything. I was talking to this handsome man here. Tell me about yourself darling.""What would you like to know about me Miss?" Jasper asked Car
Jasper stared at Sir Edwardo Williams, his personality was a bit intimidating because of the power he possesses but he remained calm. The rest of Raina's family was staring at him, waiting for a reply. "I am just her personal bodyguard and driver sir." Jasper replied politely. "Are you that close with my daughter?" Madam Diane added another question. All this interrogation just because he carried her into the house? He felt like he has made a mistake in helping her out. Now he has to answer weird and uncomfortable questions from the Williams family. "I don't know how close you mean. But we're close enough as we are supposed to be. I know my place madam." He replied again calmly. "You must be really special to be allowed and given such privileges. My sister never allows anyone to touch her especially carrying her the way you did." Freida said. The reason for the interrogation was to be sure Raina was getting some changes. She fell asleep to the extent of allowing her own personal
Jasper felt like he didn't hear her. He wanted her to repeat what she said. "I don't think I understand you Bella. Can you please elaborate?" He asked. Bella sighed, "Please accompany me to the beach today. I don't want to go alone."She just repeated the same thing. He remembered his boss told him to get ready for the beach. He has work today as it seems, the beach is also where he's taking them. He felt extremely bad that he's going to disappoint Bella again. "Bella... I'm so sorry. But that won't be possible today." He told her honestly. "Can't you ask her for a day off? You deserve a day off at least. You shouldn't always be staying with her, you have a life too." Bella snarled at him. "Bella that's not how it works. You have to understand that I don't work in an office. My job is complicated and sadly, these are the cons of this job." Bella got up angrily. Even if Jasper made her see reasons why he can't go with her, she still refused to accept it. She wanted to get Jasper
Jasper stared at Bella filled with guilt. He slowly let her go and shook his head. "I actually came with someone else." He told her sincerely. That hurt Bella a lot. She still managed to smile even though she wasn't happy. "Of course, what was I thinking? I guess I got too emotional and stupid right now. I'll leave right away." She tried leaving. Jasper stopped her, "Bella wait. Don't you want to know who I came with?"She smiled sadly, "Does it matter? I can't make you stay with me anyway. It doesn't matter who you came with Jasper.""I'm still working Bella. Don't get me wrong, I won't come with anyone else if I wasn't working." He explained. That's when Bella decided to look at his dressing. Her painful smile turned to a big frown. She got so furious again. That bitch is now taking him to the beach with her. She just couldn't go by herself and she needed the company of Jasper to do that. "Can't she go anywhere without you? She's been doing that for a long time, why suddenly a
Carly picked up Jasper's clothes and went after him. Her body was shaking seriously as she thought about what could have happened to Raina. Then she remembers Raina usually gets leg cramps in the water, but not all the time. Her fear increased when she thought about what could have happened. Perhaps the leg cramp stuff happened again. She waited in front of the water for Jasper. Jasper swam deep into the water looking around for Raina. He wasn't getting any luck because she's not around. He continued to swim around till he finally sees an unconscious body sinking below the water. He quickly moved towards the body and recognized the person as Raina. He held her by her waist and swam out of the water with her. Then he carried her to the surface laying her on the floor. Carly rushed towards them in panic. "Oh my God! Raina!" She cried looking at her friend's pale and unconscious body. Jasper tried to revive her by pressing her stomach but it didn't work. "Press her stomach, I'll hav
Raina got up feeling much better. She didn't see Carly in the house, she knows Carly might be outside. She sat up on the couch, she didn't really feel weak or dizzy like before. Carly suddenly came inside, she smiled on seeing Raina awake. "Thank God you've decided to come back to life. I was scared for a moment thinking something really bad has happened to you." Carly lamented sitting beside her and hugging her tight. "Carly you're going to really choke me to death if you don't stop now." Raina said. Carly released her with a slight frown, "You're still as grumpy as you are. Now I feel like I made a bad decision when I asked Jasper to save you."Raina's body went numb at the mention of Jasper. She felt her cheeks burn in embarrassment. The thought of having Jasper save her life made her unable to face him. She remembered what happened to her in the water. She got leg cramps and could not swim any longer. So she tried to move, but she kept sinking and drowning. That's all she remem
Raina had been so engrossed in thoughts that she never knew Jasper was following her. It was only when he ran past her to the scene where Carly was being abused that she knew he was following her. Jasper was already taking the lead in the fight, beating the other guy up seriously. Raina rushed to Carly and hugged her, she recognized the guy as one of her ex boyfriends. She only wonders why he is here to abuse Carly. "Jasper that's enough! You're going to kill him!" Carly yelled seeing the way Jasper was beating the other guy up. "No let him beat the life out of him for hurting you. I'm going to make his sorry ass die in jail." Raina gritted her teeth. A group of policemen suddenly came and separated them. The other guy's face was already disfigured by Jasper. "Hey let him go! This man started it!" Carly yelled at the officers. "I'm sorry Miss but both of them have to come with us. Someone called the police to inform us about this." One of the officers said. Raina looked around
Kylie refused to come out of her room the following day because Jasper did not come home. it's now that she's beginning to see his seriousness about not wanting the relationship anymore she wanted to use this fake dating as a medium to get close to him. she felt like crying now that he's thinking about going back to his ex girlfriend. "Kylie come out please, we need to talk to you." Selina called banging on her door. "Go away, I don't want to talk to anyone. Just respect my fucking decision and leave me alone!" She yelled at them. Selina gasped at the rate at which Kylie yelled at her. She's never really seem her daughter that angry before which makes her wonder what got her into such a state. Her mind drifted to Jasper who didn't return home last night, she thought he must have something to do with it. They always suspected Kylie feels something for him but they didn't say anything since they were living okay. "Darling please, whatever it is, we're going to sort it out. I promise
There's shock and excitement written all over their faces. They can't comprehend how she even thought of pranking them when she just woke up from a deep sleep. She was injured and everyone got worried, yet she woke up to make them feel more anxious. "You remember me? Do you really know me?" Kelvin asked to be sure. "Of course I remember you darling, it's evening already. I know we had sex this morning." She replied bluntly. Jasper coughed and looked away, Kelvin almost choked on his breath when she said that. She obviously wants to send them to their early graves. How could she talk about that sort of thing in front of other people knowing how embarrassing it is?"You little! You're supposed to be embarrassed you naughty girl! How can you talk about such a thing in front of people? Gosh!" Kelvin scolded her. "What? Ate you mad at me because I wanted you to confirm that I did remember you? What did I do wrong? You asked me a question and I gave you the best answer." She replied emo
Jasper cut Raina's statement off with a kiss. She froze as her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She never expected that at all, it's as if he wanted to give her a heart attack. She slowly closed her eyes to enjoy the moment while it lasted. The last time she kissed him, she didn't get any reaction. But now he's doing it himself, she has missed this a lot. Her hands went up to his chest, he pulled her closer to him and tightened his grip around her waist. Their tongues moved in sync, their bodies heated up and they both had the same reaction. They wanted more of each other though it's impossible because of what he said. That's when Raina pulled away, she had lost control of herself for a moment and cheated on Kylie. Jasper realized what he had done, he has been unable to keep his feelings to himself. He actually wanted to do this since he saw her again. Being too close to him made him unable to stop himself from doing something stupid. "I'm so sorry, I didn't.. I don't know what
Raina broke down crying. This is the first time in such a long while that she's going to see Carly in this state. The last time this happened, Carly almost got killed because she pushed Raina from getting run over by a car and the car ran her over instead. She cried not too much but her heart was rising and falling, she found it hard to breathe. She suddenly hit the wall in anger. "Raina? Are you okay?" Jasper asked worried about her. She turned to Jasper and pushed him. Jasper staggered back and stared at her. It's as if she has suddenly gone crazy. Then he understood what is going on with her. "RAINA!!" He yelled her name so she could snap out of it but she didn't hear. He was afraid, this is worse than any of her attacks he's seen. He pulled her close and hugged her tight, in a way that she could not pull away from him. "Raina, it's okay. She's going to be alright, I promise you. Just relax, calm down. Please..." He whispered to her ears. She calmed down a bit and looked up a
Kylie and Jasper stopped in front of the small restaurant where they're supposed to have lunch. Kylie noticed how his mood changed on seeing Raina. She had invited him to lunch and forced him to go also, she never thought they'd run into Raina. "If I knew we were going to run into her, I won't have invited you to lunch. Look at how your mood changed." She said pulling a seat for herself. Jasper would pull the seat for her if he wasn't upset, now he just sat down without pulling the chair for her. "I'm not upset Kylie, stop saying that." He replied bluntly. "Oh, I see. Are you wondering why she was begging for your attention just yesterday and today she's already flirting with another man? You shouldn't wonder, she's a slut, that's why she's out there with another man." Kylie said. He banged the table, "That's enough Kylie! What did I tell you about insulting people? She's everything than a slut and a thief. She's not someone who hooks up with more men than usual. She's free to do
Raina stayed at home like Jasper advised, Carly went out with Kelvin in her place. Raina supervised the work from home, she felt bored after a few hours. Carly and Kelvin are not going to be back until evening and that means she's going to stay at home all alone. She then planned to tour the village while she's at it, she quickly dressed up preparing to go out. On her way out of the house, she met with Elena who came with a group of girls to fight with her. "This is the bitch? She's not even pretty." One of Elena's friends said. "Yeah, this is the bitch who thinks she owns the whole world and she can chase us out of our homes." Elena replied eying Raina. Raina looked around and saw that there's no one around. Her bodyguards must have gone out and they're not around the area. They are four in number and she felt too weak to take them them on. "What do you want from me? I've not done anything wrong, why are you bothering me?" She asked though she knows why they're here. At least th
The next morning, Kelvin woke up and went to his room to use the bathroom. He saw that Carly was still asleep, he gently picked his towel and went into the bathroom. Carly opened her eyes and heard the shower running, she knows it was Kelvin. She remembers what happened last night and how he's still mad at her, she sighed in frustration. His phone started to ring, she didn't pick it up. After two rings, he came out of the bathroom with a towel tied around his waist and water dripping from his hair. His features were shining, the water made him look sexy. He wasn't paying attention to the drooling Carly as he rushed to pick up the phone. It was the site supervisor. "Yes... I'll be there in two hours to check it out. Keep me updated on whatever happens... Okay." He conversed with the caller then hung up. "Kelvin..." Carly called standing up. "Can I help?" He asked coldly. "Come on, you're not going to stay mad at me forever right? I already apologized to you. You're taking this too
Jasper cleared his throat. His game with Raina is coming to an end after all. Now he has to face her and tell her what he really wants to do, and to stop making her look like an idiot. "Excuse us Kylie." He told Kylie who's annoyed he asked her to leave."Why do I need to leave? I'm your girlfriend and I deserve to know what is going on here. Don't I?" Kylie protested."Well miss girlfriend... Your attention is not needed here. This is not where kids talk and you should really disappear, let the adults talk. Scram kiddo." Carly replied savagely. Kylie frowned, "Don't call me a kid! I'm fucking over nineteen already!" "I'm over twenty five! You're still a kid so get lost." "Kylie please, just wait for me over there. I'll be there in a few minutes. I need to talk to them, alone." Jasper pleaded with her. "Fine, but you have to be fast about it Paul, I can't wait for too long." Kylie stomped away glaring at them. Carly mocked her, "Yeah, leave kiddo. What an annoying element, it's
"Tell me we're not going through this again?" He sighed. "Do I sound stupid for asking you that? Can you blame me for caring about you more than my stupid self? You claim not to love that woman or want anything to do with her yet you keep running to her whenever you get the chance." She lamented sadly. Jasper shook his head, "I told you to give up on this. I am not rejecting you but telling you the truth. I still love her even if I don't want to be with her. Just stop hurting yourself by thinking about her. Get back to work Kylie." She scoffed, "I know you do. I am willing to help you forget her if you just give me the chance and open up your heart. Think about the proposal I gave you the other time?""Proposal? What proposal?" Jasper asked getting more clueless. She laughed, "What? You don't remember me asking you to fake date me so you can keep her away? Don't you think you need that right now?" "I don't want to hurt your feelings Kylie. Don't push it." He replied still not int
