Chapter 34: Satisfying
Jasmine's POV
After that day, I didn't give Travis a chance to talk to me. When I know he has plans to talk, I avoid him unless it's important. Why would I even talk to him?
That day, when Stacy found out that we were both stuck in the storage room, she went mad at me, saying that I was trying to steal Travis from her.
Why would I do that if, in the first place, I wish never to see him again or even talk to him? I had already cleared my intention and told her that I had nothing to do with him, but she didn't want to believe my words.
We were both stuck in that room for hours, and I never talked to him after what he did. I know that he's only playing games, and I won't let him fool me again. That is not going to happen.
I also know that Stacy won't stop until she can't hurt me. Every time we met, she got mad
Chapter 35: FunnierJasmine's POVSomeone sent me an invitation. My brow furrowed as I read the details. A smirk slowly formed on my lips. The party is exclusively for wealthy people only. I was one of the guests to whom they sent the gold envelope.I told Diego that I wouldn't come since I had to take care of my son. But he insisted that I should be the one to attend. He could take good care of David, but he was tired from work. That man. I shook my head while remembering what he had said."It's okay, Jaz. I'll take care of the company while playing with David. You need to socialize, too. I can see that you've been stressed lately. And it's my fault, because I let you work for your ex's wedding," he said.He's worried and cared about me and David. It's just a pity that I can't love him the way he loves me. I let out a sigh.
Chapter 36: DizzyJasmine's POVI wasn't feeling okay, but I managed to go do my work. I have an important meeting today with my team abroad. I decided to do it through Facetime. Because I won't be able to go there, I'm busy here.“ Mom, can we play?” My son went inside my room holding his car toy. I looked at him. I'd been so busy these past few days, and we seldom played together.I stood up and went near him. I caressed his hair and hugged him.“ Baby, I'm sorry, Mom is busy working. “ I saw he frowned but soon smiled at me. It's hard seeing him want to play and have a bonding with me but I couldn't even give him time right now.“ I understand. Mom, Daddy Uncle said that you are busy. I just figured if you are not busy today. But it's okay, Mom. Maybe next time?” He said and kissed me on my chicks.
Chapter 37: I Never WishedJasmine's POVWhen I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed. I didn't recall what happened, but when I saw him sitting beside me, holding my hands, everything went back to normal.I get my hand back and force myself to sit. Damn, why him? Of all the people inside the venue, why he's the one who helped me? This might cause trouble again.“ Hey, don't move too much. The doctor said you need a rest. You are stressed. That's why you fainted.” He explained, and I just nodded.“ Why are you still here? “ I asked him, but he just looked away.I looked at the door, waiting for someone to come in, and started ranting, but no one came.“ Because you have no one, that's why I decided to stay?” He said in a not-sure voice. Really? Did he decide to stay?
Chapter 38: I Don't CareJasmine's POVNo one expected that they would see us be together as rumours spread that Travis was my ex-husband. I couldn't stop it from spreading because it was true. I don't know who did that. I've been very careful about that issue, but it's already happening. It's also affecting my work, though it's not that big a deal, but I couldn't stop people talking about me and Travis, especially now that I am working with their wedding.Also, I couldn't figure out who the hell spread those rumours on social media. Luckily, we talked for days, and after that, I often heard about it.“ Ms. Jaz Mr. Peterson is here” Rhian said while I'm busy with the new design that Stacy sent her last night.I couldn't imagine how angry she was when she found out about the news. I was surprised, but she went to the bankers after she found out about it, while Travi
Chapter 39: Double DateJasmine's POV“ Tell Mr. and Mrs. Lee that I will be accompanying them personally when I go back there,” I told my secretary abroad. We were done revising and completing the proposal, though it has a great impact on our company, and we have to adjust.Some of our investors and even our clients suddenly called for a meeting. I was in charge of presenting them with every detail. In the end, they agreed because we're not the only ones we could benefit from, but also them.“ Don't worry, ma'am. Mr. Jenkins already talked to them and cleared everything up,” she said, and I nodded.“ Okay, about the papers I will be needing tomorrow, okay?” I said, and she nodded and smiled. After the meeting, I closed my laptop and decided to go to the nearest restaurant because I was so hungry.Whe
Chapter 40: Embarrassing Jasmine's POV I've been considering whether to attend that party, but Paul kept on sending messages that he would wait for me there. He's really something else. Well I was surprised when he said that he owned that restaurant since I haven't checked any information about him for being busy this week. After thinking for hours, I decided to come because he'd been calling me. At first, I didn't know where he got my number. Then I found out that he always kept on asking my assistant for my number. I just wore a black dress and put on a little makeup. I actually like this new me right now. I could wear whatever I wanted with confidence. I was just staring outside of this mansion, and I was surprised because this house was owned only by him. Well, Paul is not the kind of person who would show how wealthy he is. He's just simple, yet you can see that he's really a wealthy person. I entered the house, and I think all of the people in there were Paul’s friends. T
Chapter 41: Save Jasmine’s POV That jerk, how did he end up in that place, too? Is he following me? Damn him! I touched my face, and I still felt embarrassed about what had happened. I tried to calm down, but as soon as I looked at my side, I saw those two again whispering to each other while the girl was sitting on the boy’s lap. I get a glass of drink and walk away from them. I just found myself in the middle of the people dancing like there’s no tomorrow. “Hi! Are you new here?” the guy said. I thought he was not referring to me, so I didn’t mind him. “Hard to get, huh?” I even heard him say that. I was about to walk through the table when someone grabbed me by my hand. When I turned around to look who it was, it was the guy who had been talking earlier. “Excuse me,” I said emotionlessly and got my hand b
Chapter 42: SabotageJasmine's POV“ Ma'am Jaz, I don't know what happened that day, I just found out that our designs were gone,” Rhian said. I called her here to discuss the designs that we are going to present to our investor.Aside from being wedding planners, we still have other business to do, especially now that the company is becoming more popular.“ What do you mean it was gone?” My forehead knotted when I heard her say that. We just finished that yesterday evening here in our office and now it is gone?I couldn't think of any reason that someone in here would steal it or else she would forget where she put it.“Ma'am, I'm really sorry. It's my fault. But the last time I remember, when you left the office, I placed it in your drawer,” she said, and I knew that she was getting nervous. That was a bi
