What Jack Wants Chapter Sixteen
"Hey."Jack stood speechless for a few moments. He was just heading to hers and here she was, looking as beautiful as ever. She wore a white sundress, her beautiful hair in a bun on top of her head. She wore a clear pinkish lipgloss and a little eyeliner. Simple but gorgeous, just the way Jack liked her. She was like a drop of fresh cool water in the hottest desert. An absolute breath of fresh air and Jack just lost himself staring at the beauty that she was."If this isn't a good time, I can always come back." Lisa was clearly misunderstanding his silence."No, come on in." Jack stepped aside for Lisa to come through and her scent nearly knocked him out. She smelled of lavender and peaches, an unlikely combination that worked so well."How are you?" Lisa asked when Jack joined her on the sofa.Jacked sighed deeply. That was the million-dollar question. To anyone else, he would've said he was fine, gone with the easiest answer. Th

"Jess, I have bad news." Theresa found her sister lying down, perusing social media without a care in the world. She wished she wasn't the bearer of the news that would remove the slight smirk she had on her face, probably from texting someone, but something was seriously wrong and someone had to tell her."Yeah? What's up?" Jess put her phone aside and sat upright."Well, it's just been announced that Jack lost his mother yesterday.""Oh my goodness, are you for real?""I am.""That is literally the end of my life, all of our lives." Jess was distraught for Jack but she couldn't ignore what it meant for her."You don't have to carry that kind of burden around sis, I understand that your heart was in the right place but it is not your duty to save us. Everyone will be alright, we'll figure it out.""I really hope so, mom will die.""Mom will be alright. She is overly dramatic about everything so you can expect a horrid re

The day was promising and she couldn't wait to get it started.All her excitement left her in a whoosh when she got to her brand new office and found Jack sitting behind her desk, wearing his usual brooding expression. How in the world had he found her? And most importantly, what did he want? And why was he allowed to go anywhere and do as he pleased?"What are you doing here?" Lisa couldn't bother with pleasantries. It was annoying enough that he was rich enough to do whatever he wanted, Lisa didn't need him showing up at her workplace and disrupting a perfect day. His presence irritated her and immediately ruined her good mood."A very good morning to you too, Lisa.""Just sto

"Lisa, someone's at the door," Jordan called from the kitchen and Lisa came out from her room to answer the door, after promptly looking through the peephole of course. After what happened with Randy, she knew better.Femi's figure, distorted by the glass greeted her when she looked and she flung the door open. He had a big smile on his face and pulled her in for a big hug."How's my favourite girl doing?" Femi asked as Lisa led him into the apartment."Oh you know, I'm okay.""I'm glad to hear it." He settled into the couch with Lisa beside him. "I'm here to talk about my offer the last time I was here. Well, that and also the fact that I wanted to see you too. Have you given it any thought?""If you tell me why you're being nice to me, I'll accept the offer.""Lisa...""You said there was a reason so out with it already.""Okay but promise me you'll be rational when I tell you.""You're making it sound fishy, wha

The engagement party was in a few hours. Jack couldn't bring himself to even pretend that he cared about it. Jess had been handling everything by herself since he literally barked at her to leave him alone. He wired her the funds and asked her to do whatever she wanted with the party. His mother was going to show up and be happy, that was all that mattered to him. It didn't matter if Jack himself was miserable, he was doing what needed to be done. He was doing right by her, fulfilling her desires.Jack looked at the time, he had barely two hours to sober up and play the doting fiance. The thought of it left a bitter taste in his mouth but it had to be done and that was what he was going to do. He walked to his kitchen and fixed a cup of coffee for himself, the amount of alcohol in his system was enough to knock a weaker man out.

She grabbed her phone and pulled up her messages, it was Femi.Hello beautifulFor some reason, she couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face. Her mood of late had been dampened by her little episode with Jack and there was rarely anything that gave her joy. It had been five days and she hadn't seen or heard from Jack ever since she told him to move forward. It was the right thing for both of them yet she felt like a part of her had gone with him.

Jack drowned his fifth glass of Whiskey that morning. He'd gone back to work the previous day after the fight with Lisa and worked himself to stupor. In his mind, everything was alright. But was he wrong? The next day, he woke up feeling like crap. He couldn't wrap his head around it, the feeling couldn't be explained.He'd dressed up and gone to work as usual but for three hours, he was completely useless. He couldn't think, couldn't function, couldn't even be angry and snap at the staff. He couldn't remember ever feeling like that and he was at a total loss.He reached for the bottle again at the same time Ben walked into his office."Woah... What has you indulging so early? " Ben asked as he dropped into one of the seats on the other side of Jack's desk."I don't know how I feel, man." Jack poured the drink and took a generous gulp, the alcohol couldn't kick in fast enough."What happened

Chapter One
Lisa got to work as early as she could and went about organizing the office. She stored away files in alphabetical order and colour coordinated the books on the shelf. Everything had to be perfect, the CEO of their chain of companies was going to visit their branch for the first time since she had started work as a sales representative at the company. Word was that he went to every single office and gave his remarks when he was done. He also wasn't one to tolerate tardiness. From what she heard, he was the perfect example of the rich asshole stereotype. His name was whispered among workers, no one wanted to be caught on his bad side. Lisa was bent over, arranging the books on the bottom shelf when she heard someone clear their throat behind her. She was startled and almost fell over but the stranger's strong arms steadied her. He smelled of exotic cologne and man. Lisa looked up to meet his gaze and literally jumped away from her position in his embrace."I...
