Chapter 66: Distancing Myself
Jasmine's POV
“ This is the venue that we chose. It's a little big, but maybe we could finish this earlier,” Ms. Clarkson said. We only have weeks to do this, and I think we can do it.
“ You can count on us, Mr. Clarkson, “ I told him, and he nodded. They had already decided on the venue and the theme. We're just buying the materials that we need while my team is starting to fix the place.
“ Ms. Stewart, if you need anything, you can talk to us, “ Ms. Bianca said. She was very kind. We haven't started working yet, but they already bought snacks for us.
“Of course, I will, “ I said, and they left because they still had important things to do. I looked at my staff, and they could talk in here and laugh about things they can't do when we are still working with Stacy.

Chapter 67: I Want You BackJasmine's POV“I want you back, Jaz” his words literally made me stop, but I didn't dare to look at him. I feel like all the memories that I've already forgotten have come back.I wanted to laugh at him. But I couldn't. I wanted to think that it was all a joke.“ You know what Travis? There's a time for a joke,” I told him. He's looking at me like he's telling me that I should believe him.“ Jaz, common. Don't look at me like that. I'm telling the truth, “ he said, trying to hold my hand. Is he joking again?“ When did you tell Travis the truth, Travis? Tell me. I couldn't remember anything that you told me because everything you did was lie to me,” I said while he was staring at me.He didn't become honest to me, not a single thing. The only thin
Chapter 68: Flowers Jasmine's POV I don't know how I would be able to face him that day. I just couldn't take any longer seeing his face. “ Ma'am Jaz, are you okay?” Rhian said while starting to unbox. I looked at her and smiled. I just can't forget what happened yesterday. “ I'm alright. I'll just stay right there,” I told her. She nodded, but she still looked at me with concern in her eyes. I sigh and sit on the chair, but she follows me. “ Ma'am, if you are not feeling well, you can go home. Ma'am, I can handle this,” she said, but I just smiled at her. “ Have you ever felt like you are so tired of everything?” I asked her. She sat on the chair and let out a heavy breath. “ Most of the time, I lose hope of everything. But I remember when I wasn't working here, I faced so many struggles. “ She starte
Chapter 69: AnnoyingJasmine's POVDamn, those flowers. It's been days since he sent me those flowers, and I kept on throwing them in the garbage bin. He's just wasting his time doing that.“ Are you okay?” Ms. Bianca asked me, which made me look at her and smile. We'd just had a discussion about the designs.“ Yes, it's just that someone kept on disturbing me these past few days,” I told her, but I managed to smile. She looked at the trashcan and saw a bunch of flowers in there.“ I see, I've always noticed that someone is sending you those flowers, “ she said and chuckled. I don't know what is wrong with that guy. Now that I already want a peaceful life, he would do this, and it's really irritating me.“ Yeah, I didn't actually expected but I have no intention of accepting those flowers either” I told he
Chapter 70: I'm Not A Toy Jasmine's POV Damn that guy! How many times should I tell him that I don't want him around me? He kept on asking nonsense things, and it really irritates me. I thought we would never see each other again, but now I think that will never happen. And we will be meeting every time. I never wished this to happen, and now I know that I will never have a peaceful day. Until I couldn't forget what he said that day. I want you back. What am I? A toy that, if he remembered me, he could immediately get me? Well, damn, I'm not a fucking toy. I don't know what is wrong with Travis. After their wedding was canceled he was always messing with my life. “ Jaz?” I turned around to see Paul. It's been days since I didn't saw him. He’s wearing a tuxedo and it seems like he's going somewhere else. “ Paul, what are you doing here?” I asked him. I was walking in the park to clear my mind and relax when he suddenly appeared. “ I came here to spend the rest of my time when I
Chapter 71: Fake Smiles Jasmine's POV I actually didn't know why Paul was acting like that. He seemed to know something that I didn't. I just couldn't figure it out. “ Here are the designs that we discussed when you were not still in my team. “ I showed him everything and he started to look at it. He checked it one by one, adding the flowers, the tables and chairs and all the materials that I'd presented to Bianca and Clarkson. “ They agreed to that but they said if we can add something then we can tell them” I said without looking at him. He didn't respond to me. That's why I decided to glance at him but then I saw him staring at me. I furrowed my eyebrow which made him smile. He's like a crazy dog! I'm so irritated with him. “ What are you laughing at?!” I couldn't really control my anger when it came to him. I knew he's been staring at me and he's freaking me out for real. “ I'm not laughing,” he said and faked a cough. I rolled my eyes and didn't talk to him. “ Can you se
Chapter 72: Efforts Jasmine's POV “ Are you okay Ma'am?” Rhian asked me while we were starting to place everything inside because we're starting to design the venue now. “ I'm alright, it's just that I'm freaking out with that man” I irritatedly said to her and looked at Travis staring at us. He also looked at him, and she nodded her hair and looked at me. “ I see. Don't get me wrong, ma’am Jaz, but I think he's after you,” she whispered to me while she looked at Travis. “ Stop looking at him. He might notice that we're talking about that jerk. And besides, I don't care if he’s after me. We're divorced. He's just my ex-husband now,” I told her. She just agreed to what I said because if not, I would fire her. No, just kidding. I can't do that. “ Sorry, but what if he's really telling the truth?” She asked me which made me look at her with my forehead knotted. She noticed that I've been always mad these past few days because of Travis, who’s always bugging me around. She couldn'
Chapter 73: Crazy For You Jasmine's POV Yesterday, Travis really finished placing all the heavy boxes in the storage room. Rhain even wanted to call someone to help him yesterday, but I stopped her. We let him do it and finished that work. The others wanted to help him, too, but I warned them not to. When he was done, he was totally wet, but I didn't care. I feel like in that way, at least I could see how he suffered. But that's not enough. “ Did I hear them right? Does Travis work all day? And not just light work. I'm surprised, “ Clarkson said while they both looked at me like I was the reason he did that. That's his choice not mine. He could actually just leave that work since it's not his responsibility at all but he voluntarily agreed. “ Yes ma'am, actually he just only rests when he's tired and he will continue to work again” Rhian said proudly. Bianca chuckled because of what she said. I looked at her, telling her through my eyes that she shouldn't have praised him becaus
Chapter 74: Aren't You Busy? Jasmine's POV “ What about if we made a few changes? “ He said while looking at the arrangements of the tables and chairs. “ What do you mean? That's what the couple wants us to do,” I told him, opposing his opinions. Damn it. “ Like this one, don't you think that when it comes to this kind of design it is better to make it as one like a hug table. “ He said, showing me some of the images. Well, he's right. But we have to rearrange the tables again, and we need the two's approval to agree or disagree. “ Why didn't you just say that before we didn't start fixing these things?” I told him in an irritated voice. He should have told me that before and not now that we're done fixing those chairs and tables. “ Well, I just found it a little bit appealing,” he said, which made me let out a heavy breath. I'm not complaining about his opinion, which is much better than this, but we need to repeat from the start again. “ Fine, then talk to them right away ca
Epilogue Travis POV It started when I was just a kid. Meeting her at a young age with her cute little voice, long hair, and gorgeous eyes. I was just a kid back then but I already knew that she would be the woman I wanted to marry. The woman I wanted to experience all my first in life. The woman that I want to stay by my side. I was just a kid back then but I still remember how I started to fall in love with her. Time went by I met random girls but still, I couldn't take my eyes off her.

FinaleJasmine's POV“ You're not mad at me?” I asked him. He smiled at me.“ Nope, I have this feeling that this is literally going to happen. But I still tried hoping that things would change but it didn't. I actually love you. I don't want to push myself, that's why I'm letting you decide. But it's obviously clear now. You don't actually stop loving him, you just rest about everything. I wasn't blaming you after all this is what I want. To love you even if you can't love me. “ He said while looking into my eyes.“ I'm sorry, I thought I wasn't ready to get into a relationship but I was wrong. I'm sorry Diego” I told him and held his hand.He stared at me in the meantime before letting out a heavy sigh. He then hugged me tight and it was heavy for me to see him like this.“ I will be okay. Don't worry about me. Thank you for letting me be a father to David. Take good care always Jas.” He said before separating our hugs.“ Thank you, Diego. My son will always consider you as his seco

Isn't it enough that we torture you?! What the fuck is wrong with you Travis! I love you! I love you so much, but you're just ignoring me! Treating me like I've ever existed in your life!” She said and I could see her tears fall from his cheeks.“ Enough! I've done enough to your family! I'd rather die than be with you! No matter what you do I will never ever love you!” He shouted which made me scared that Stacy might shoot me or him.But I still couldn't forget how he suffered just because of me. I thought he Really didn't love me and chose her rather than me. But I was wrong. He's actually
Chapter 194: Never Love Someone Like YouJasmine's POV“ Stay here,” he said and he was about to get out of the car when I held his hand which made him look at me. I gulped looking at all the men holding guns in their hands.“ I want to come,” I told him but he shook his head. He held my hand and stared directly into my eyes.,“ I'm sorry but I don't want you to be hurt. Our son is already involved and I can't bear it when the two of you get hurt. Please don't be hard-headed even just this time. “ He said while he cupped my face.“ No, I want to see my son. Please just let me follow you let me come '' I told him. He sighs and he is hesitant at first. I heard him let out a heavy sigh.“ Fine, but you're staying behind me,” he said, which made me nod. He started walking and talking to the man who followed us. After that they all separated by group then I saw Travis holding a gun now.“ Wait, why are you holding that one?” I asked him, pointing the gun in his hand. He just shrugged his

He looks frustrated and so am I.After that he ended the call and went to me.“ Will we find him okay? Don't worry.

Travis looks at him and messes up his hair.“ Really? Don't worry, I'll make sure that you experience a lot of good things,” he said to him which made my son nod.If Travis hadn't cheated on me, maybe we’d actually like this even before.There's a lot of what-ifs in my mind, but I know it won't happen.We actually dreamed of this day, planning about our future, but because of what happened, everything was ruined.I don't want to be strict with my son.

Is Daddy gay? “ He said while they were not stopping.“ No, you're not,” My son said, which made Travis stop and mess up his hair.“Your mom wouldn't fall in love with me if I’m gay,” he told David while he was looking at me. I rolled my eyes and took a sip of my juice.We are here on the beach right now, and there are actually a lot of people here.“ Mommy fell in love with you, Daddy?” David asked him. Then Travis carried him and let him sit on his lap.“ Of course. She did fall in love with me. Why would he not? I'm handsome,” he said proudly, which made David nod.“ We look like each other. Does it mean that I'm also handsome?” He asked, which made Travis chuckle.“ Of course, you are my son.

But David's energy is still the same.We used Travis chopper as our service.“ Mommy! This place is huge!” He exclaimed in excitement. He was right.

We're walking through the front desk to ask for our room key.He was talking with the lady while checking our room.“ Please accompany them to their room,” one of the ladies said while they were getting our luggage.“ Wait, don't we have separate rooms?” I asked him, but he just looked at me.
