I just wanted peace of mind, but I didn't want that to happen.I kept on sobbing in the bathtub while hugging my knees. It's already Two in the morning but I couldn't sleep.After I was done, I put on my sleepwear and went to the balcony to breathe some fresh air. I tried not to cry.I hugged myself and closed my eyes. When I opened them, I saw someone standing outside. He was busy drinking. Why was he still up? And why was he outside?I decided to go out of my room. I wore my jacket.“ Why are you still up here?” I asked him, which surprised him. I saw his fist bruised and the side of his lips. I felt guilty.

Chapter 123: Misunderstanding Jasmine's POVI only slept an hour. When I left my room, the rest had already prepared their things.“ Why do you look like you didn't sleep last night?” Ryan intrigued me.

I glared at them, which caused them to shut their mouths.“ Where is sir Travis?” Kurt asked us. I also had no idea where he was. I looked around, but he was nowhere to be found. Maybe he had already called his driver to fetch him here.“ Don't worry about him. He's grown up I'm sure he knows the way home,” I told them. I placed my things in the backseat.“ Am I late?” His voice was husky. I turned around to look at him, but his hair was still messy.He also looked like he h
Chapter 124: Who Am I To Refuse? Jasmine's POVAfter the vacation, I spent three days doing all the paperwork I had left. I couldn't let Diego work since he still needed to recover fully.

Why would he call her? The truth is, I blocked Travis' number so he couldn't call me, but he knows Rhian's number.I remember when we were on our way home. I didn't know that I slept in the car. He is the one driving and I know that he's also sleepy, but he just doesn't want to show me that he is.I woke up in the
