"I didn't know you sing so well, Bobby," Jacques said with a grimace and Scarlett started laughing out loud."Oh, you're here," Bobby's tone was mixed with a lot of emotions. But disappointment was more pronounced."I'm leaving," Jacques waved her hands. "I won't disturb your night of love." "Stay for dinner, madam Luna," Bobby said with a grin after he was pinched by Scarlett."No need to feel obliged, Bobby. I can see I am not welcome here," Jacques said in a serious tone making Bobby sad. "Pfft...hahaha... your face!" Jacques laughed, making Bobby surprised. "I'll visit another time for dinner. And one more thing, will you please stop addressing me as 'madam'? It makes me feel like... old... or like I am a...""Lady p*mp?" Scarlett added and Jacques nodded. "Yes.""Or, you know a kinky madame...whoosh," Scarlett made a whipping motion. "It would be funny to see you dressed in leather holding a whip and Jerry kneeling in front of you with a collar begging you-""Oh, that's enough
What is he doing?Jacques got angry at TJ in her heart. But seeing those piercingly blue eyes that were calm as the deep blue sea, she realized she needs to have this talk. She needs to tell him what she feels and maybe about her miscarriage. I need to pull the band-aid and tell him that he and I can never be together again."Yes, let's," she turned and looked at Gerard. "I know a place.""I'll be at the pub," Jacques looked at Jeremy and he nodded. He extended his hand as if he was about to say something. "Mmm?" Jacques asked, taking a step closer to Jeremy, but Gerard pulled her by the wrist."Gerry!" Jacques furrowed her brows. She didn't like getting pulled when she was in a conversation with another."Nothing," Jeremy waved his hand. "Call me after," he smiled."Okay, I won't take long," she nodded and turned at Gerard."It's pretty close from here. Let's take a walk," she showed the direction, carefully avoiding his hand that was about to hold hers.Her heart was beating in her
"F*cking coward!" Matt gritted his teeth. "After everything you did for her, you're letting her go? Should I pity you? Should I bless you and tell you to follow your heart and become a c*ck? You f*cking c*nt! F*ck off!!"Matt ended the call and Jeremy gritted his teeth. He didn't know what kind of reply he expected from Matt. But Matt doesn't get this angry at him ever.What do you know, Matt? If I follow my heart, I will steal her and take her to the end of the world and keep her with me. But will she be happy with me?-----"Since you waited for me, I hope you are planning to tell me why you married Emma. I don't buy the story I was told. I will just walk away after the first lie you speak. After all, I know when you are lying."Jacques spoke in a flat tone sipping a non-alcoholic cocktail. She just wished Gerard was honest with her after the relationship they shared for years. "You're not wearing the ring," Gerard said and only then Jacques realized she had forgotten to wear the r
Gerard looked at Jacques ordering another drink. She had no change in her emotions if not she seemed a little disgusted. But he is the one to blame for not explaining everything differently. Had he not let his emotions control him, she'd have believed whatever he tells her like in the past.Why Emma left his school is directly connected to him and Emma is blackmailing him with that truth. And so he didn't want to answer Jacques's question. He decided to tell his story in a way to invoke her sympathy. Till now he didn't speak to her about it because he didn't want her to pity him but now he needed his pity. He didn't want to lose her. He knew how kind-hearted she was and wanted to distract her and turn her disbelief into pity."Jer, growing up, my parents never left me alone with my uncle. I had wondered why I am not allowed to be with my uncle who's a lot of fun. My parents knew who he was and still used him..." He took a sip of water and looked around. Other than them there was on
"Jer, you..." Gerard tried to hold her hand but she pulled her hand back and he didn't mind that. He could not believe what he was hearing, but then slowly it got registered.She's pregnant? That means..."Jer..." his eyes teared up. "You... we are pregnant?" he fisted his hand over his mouth and took a deep breath and broke into laughter.Jacques held her breath and clenched her jaws to control herself. He could see he was obviously happy about it and her heart moved a bit and she wanted to hug him and cry. But the sound of the rattling tin cans played in her memory along with the image of Gerard meeting her eyes and the 'Just Married' sign she saw as he left her.Right, he was not there when she needed him. And she lost her baby. Her heart filled with bitterness."Jer... forget everything...Let's just leave here, this city... this country even. Let's start over with just us three. You, me and our-""For a lawyer, your comprehension skills are very low," Jacques's voice rang like a
No, it can't be him... I kind of remember his name... What was it..?Jacques bowed and rubbed her temples. She didn't tell him her name, but he told her his name. It was..."Come on, honey buns... you're wasted. I'll drop you home. Let's meet and talk when you're sober..."Jacques remembered that guy's gentle deep voice as he caressed her cheek. His forehead was pressed on hers and his warm breath fell on her face. "Are you shy?" She grazed her lips on his.Ugh! Was that even me who talked that way to a stranger? Alcohol really is the worst.She remembered feeling hot all over and she grazed her lips on his."Come on! The night is young and we are old enough to do what we want...Don't grow a conscience on me now after makin' me drippin', Joe-"JOE!!Right, it was Joe! It can't be TJ!Joe... His name should be Joseph... or Jonah... Jonathan...John...Or...JOEL!!!AHHHH!!!It can't be him! How could I have done all that with TJ? Impossible!She didn't want to believe that. But if TJ l
Mark led Jacques in.The town will be free of filth only if it is washed over by the blood of the vermin causing poor people distress. No number of reforms will help those who have violence in their blood. He made the mistake of letting go of the lower-level people from their gang and now they've grown up to be the thorns on his side destroying this place. Only when the weeds are pulled out and burnt, will the garden become lush. That boy...he loves him and wouldn't wish ill on him. But he is wrong to think just by expanding his gang and its turf, he can eliminate the other gangs. He needs to eradicate the head and the tails of the other gangs.Jeremy decided not to kill for this girl, but when the guys he spared the life of come for this girl, won't he start killing?For that, this girl needs to stay with Jeremy.Danger looms on her life because of her background, but he knows she will be safe. After all, she is a direct descendant of the most powerful man on earth and he won't let
In Jeremy's Office...All the employees stood there holding their breath. The blinds weren't on and they could see through the glass, but they couldn't hear anything that was said. Jeremy didn't let the guards stop that guy and the moment he got in, he started throwing punches. One of them ran to Scarlett to inform her that there was a fight. It was not a fight per se. Jeremy wasn't even trying to dodge and let that skimpy man hit him."Were you responsible for her miscarriage?" Gerard folded his sleeves. His fingers trembled with pain as he had never hit a person before. He didn't know punching another hurts."Yes, I am responsible..." Jeremy rubbed the blood dripping from his split lips with the back of his hand. "I rammed her car and when she was bleeding, I forced her to sign the marriage certificate-""You motherf***er!!" Gerard's entire body trembled and his eyes watered. She didn't go into details but is this how it happened? How much pain was she in?"You killed our baby?" Hi
