Carly woke up by evening, she found herself in her room. She looked around and saw no one, her head hurt a bit. She tried to recollect what happened and nothing came to her. She sluggishly got out of bed and walked into the living room. A strong aroma hit her nostrils when she got there, she sniffed around to trace where it is coming from. Then she wonders who could be cooking in her house. Kelvin must've left already. She stepped into the kitchen and surprisingly found him there, cooking with her apron on. Her eyes widened, not just because he's cooking, but how sexy he looks doing it. "You're awake." He said without looking at her. She is amazed that he noticed her presence without looking at her. She cleared her throat, "Yes, how did I sleep off anyway?" "You don't remember?" He asked surprisingly. "No, I don't. Did I do something crazy? Tell me I did not embarrass myself." She palmed her face. Kelvin laughed, "Yes, you kinda did." "Oh no..." Then everything started to come
"Here are the documents, I am done signing them." Raina said after a while. Jasper was left standing till she finished. Jasper did not want to sit down for he felt unwelcomed. He took the documents from her without looking at her again. Raina saw the expression he has, it showed he was really hurt. When she wanted to apologise, she stopped herself. What about the victim he killed? That person must feel very hurt too, the person must have begged for her life but he didn't care. He killed the person in sold blood so he doesn't deserve to be treated well. That's how she consoled herself and stopped herself from apologizing to him. "Excuse me." He said and walked out. Just like that, without taking a second look at Raina. She watched him leave the office, then she sighed in frustration. She loves him, her heart kept threatening to give her away while he stood there. She only said those words so she would feel at ease. She wants to believe what she feels is a joke and it will go away soon
Raina sniffled, seeing the blood that still flowed from Jasper's body. She tried to get her phone from him, but he's still strong in his state. "Give the phone to me! Do you want to die? Why are you doing this?" She cried pushing him slightly. "A few hours ago, you asked me to get lost from the face of the earth. That's what I want to do, you want me to...""I only said that out of anger and I regret it. I am sorry please, I love you and I can't watch you die." She continued to cry. Jasper froze when he heard the last sentence. "What did you say?""I love you, please don't die, you're getting weak. Let me help you please." She pleaded with him. He chuckled, "Silly girl." He pulled her in for a hug. She cried while hugging him, afraid of what will happen to him. She still tried to get a hold of the phone but he wouldn't let go. Just then, a car stopped in front of them. Raina was relieved, the driver came. "Quick! He's bleeding, let's take him to the hospital!" She ordered him.
Raina opened her eyes when her phone rang. She checked the caller ID and saw it's her sister Freida. She also has several missed calls from a strange number, she ignores those ones and decided to call her sister first. She looked at Jasper who is still fast asleep, his face looks so cute and he looks like a sleeping baby. She gently left the bed with her phone, she doesn't want to disturb his sleep. She walked out of the room and called Freida back. "Raina! Where the hell have you been? I've been calling, you are not picking up. I asked the driver and he told me you stayed out. I wanted to ask you..." Freida started immediately she picked up, Raina has to cover her ears at the extent to which she is loud. "What is it?" Raina asked rolling her eyes, she can just imagine Freida's face. "He told me you took Jasper to the hospital! What happened to him? Why didn't you call to tell anyone?" "He is fine now. There's no need to get so worked up like he's your boyfriend." "What? Are you
Mrs Turner glared at her daughter, she felt like Bella is becoming too desperate and stupid. She is craving the attention of a man who doesn't even care about her existence. Or maybe Jasper cares about her and it doesn't surpass friendship. "He is not leading you on, I won't warn huh anymore. I will not be there when you get hurt. Excuse me daughter." Mrs Turner said and left her room. Bella fell on her bed in frustration. She ignored her mother and tried calling Jasper's number again. "What's going on? Is something wrong with him? He said he's going to check on me earlier today. I wonder what happened to him." She said to no one. Shr became a bit worried that he might be out with Jessa or Raina. She called someone to help her spy on him and waited for the news. While waiting she heard a knock on her door. "Come in, whoever that is." She said with a frown. One of the cleaners came into the room. "Young mistress, there's someone here to see you?"Bella's eyes lit up, "Jasper?""
"Raina? Hey, wake up!" Someone tugged her, she stirred awake. Her eyes opened and met with her sister's evil smirk. She jerked up, wasn't she just in Jasper's room? She has been dreaming all along?"What are you doing here Freida?" She asked. Freida sat on the bed, "You have to gist me about what happened between you and Jasper. You only came home yesterday and you slept off." Then she remembers it wasn't a dream. She was indeed with Jasper last night. They had a romantic evening and shared kisses countless times. They both officially confessed their feelings to each other and decided to keep their relationship a secret for now. Raina left after spending a few hours with him, she was elated. She came home and slept immediately, the first time she slept peacefully in a long while. "I have nothing to say to you. I have work to go to, you should try working too. Then you'll have less time for all this trouble." Raina said getting up. Freida is stubborn and won't listen. "You have be
Raina rushed out of the building and into her car. All her employees stared at her murmuring amongst themselves. She rushed like something was wrong, only Kelvin knows where she is rushing to. She drove to the restaurant where she is supposed to have lunch with Jasper. It is more like a noodle shop, but a very big one. This is found in the lowest parts of the city. Jasper asked her to come there. She has never eaten in such a place before but she wanted to try new things. And she is very eager to see Jasper. She entered the place searching for Jasper with her eyes, she found him at a corner waving at her. A smile escaped her lips as she rushed towards him, he stood up and caught her in a tight up. He kissed her, then pulled a chair for her to seat. There are hardly much people at the shop yet, so they are not worried about getting caught by nosy people. "How is your day going?" He asked her. She sighed, "I am so stressed out. I wish my hands were up to ten, I'll be able to do so ma
Towards closing hours, Raina hastily rounded up so she can see Jasper. At least she concentrated, but still had her mind on him. She stepped out of her office only to bump into someone she did not want to see. Her ex boyfriend Richard Dixon. "What the hell are you doing here?" She yelled at him. He smiled, "I'm here to see you darling, you don't look happy to see me." "Why would I be happy to see you? You sound like an idiot right now. You know I hate you with passion." She snapped at him. "Are you sure you want to say that to me? Are you sure you really hate me? You've always talked about how you loved me and how you couldn't do without me. Now you're saying you hate me, what am I supposed to believe." She scoffed angrily, "I don't have time for this nonsense. I have to go, my boyfriend is waiting for me. That's the only person I love." "You mean that low loser? That's the man you love? Of all people, you love a criminal like him? I can't believe you're willing to get back with
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
