Chapter Forty-Two 

As soon as Jessica stepped inside the building she practically ran up the stairs since the elevator had been out of order for a couple of days.  Since she only resided at the third floor opposite from Lilly’s apartment and three stores weren’t much for her to climb so she arrived in a matter of few minutes. As soon as she reached the door to her apartment; Jessica made a beeline to her bed and fell on it, her heart thudding inside her chest and her breath uneven.

She stared at the ceiling for a while before closing her eyes and inhaling sharply; Adrian’s fresh and minty scent lingered on his suite jacket that she was still wearing.  Jessica’s lips curled into a smile before she lightly bit on her lower lip and covered her head with her hands.

 Adrian kissed her and oh how she loved his kiss…
