All she needed to do was stick to the instruction her gave her; hide and don't come out no matter what. But she just had to do what her heart pleased.Typical Jade.Why didn't he see this coming?Why didn't he just take her with him?He knows her to well so he should have predicted she'd still disobey him.He quietly killed some of the gun men that invaded the boathouse and was trying to kill another one when he heard his name lingering with desperation in the salty air.It was the sweet voice of his wife, screaming his name with her delicious mouth.And then he got distracted and the gunman he was sneaking up on heard it too and ran to the deck.When he ran to the window, he saw her standing on the deck.It was so quick he couldn't do anything about it as he watched the bullet travel to his wife's body on the deck.All he could do was shout her name and ask her to move but instead, she turned to him with a smile and took the bullet which sent her into the water.Her body fell slowly
Jade stared at the woman right in front of her. The pain in her arm forgotten, her husband who stood beside her invisible.Her hand swang in the air to hit the other woman across the face.How dare her make such claim?She saw how Carrie held her cheek and looked at her in greater shock.Words tried to escape her mouth but in vain.Fists dropped to her sides as she remembered that night in the suite.Jade moved back in fear.She caught them both in bed and now, Carrie is claiming to be carrying Xavier's child.So what if her claim was true?Jade subconsciously placed a hand on her belly as she turned to look at Xavier who was saying something to her but all she saw was his moving lips and a horror silence.No, no this can't happen to her.“It's not my child." She heard Xavier say to Carrie.“It can't be my child." “And what do you mean by that? We hade sex.." “I can't remember a thing so how do you expect me to believe that?" He angrily replied.“You know I'll never do anything to h
The smile looked sour as tears welled up in her eyes.At that moment, she didn't care if she looked weak or miserable in the presence of Carrie.Bitterness gathered in a lump behind her throat and she turned pale.The pained look on her face turned her smile into a sad one.No matter how hard she tried to say something, words failed her. Her mouth opened only to close.Carrie took the paper from her and read it too.She happily looked over to Xavier, handing over the paper to him.He didn't take it. The pained look on his wife's face told him everything he needed to know.“See? I told you I wasn't lying." Carrie sat back down. “I mean no harm." She enjoyed the look on Jade's face so much.The two women waited for him to speak but he just sat in the silence.“The only reason why I came here in the first place was because I knew I was carrying your child." Carrie said to him. “And there's no way I'm gonna let my child grow up without a father." Jade closed her hot eyes.“My child deser
“Khalil…” Jade breathed a whisper and a wide smile spread on her face. “He kept his promise.”“Khalil is on his way.” She looked at Jade's dress.“Oh my gosh! I'm completely deranged!” Jade exclaimed. “We have to get new clothes and dry my hair.”Raquel only chuckled.“Take me to the nearest boutique!" Jade jumped into the car.Few minutes later, Jade had already tried a dozen of clothes but none suited her preference.“Just pick anyone already!" Raquel said frustratingly. She had no other option than to stay.Jade shortly came out with another dress.It tightly fitted her slender body, seductively exposed her left thigh and also showcased most of her round breasts.“I don't think I should wear anything sexy. Where he comes from, woman dress decently. But Xavier would love this…” Jade paused with a smile. “Xavier will love this!” She repeated with an evil smirk.“You want to get back at Xavier by seducing another man who happens to be his enemy?" Raquel smiled. “I'm impressed." “If
Jade and Khalil walked out of the restaurant only to meet Xavier right outside.The two looked at each other.“Xavier." Khalil smiled as he walked to him. He offered a handshake that Xavier hardly accepted. “I see you're good." “I decided to pick my wife personally." He looked over to Jade.His eyes studied her dress.Khalil walked back to Jade. “I have to go." He looked at Xavier. “Thank you." He placed a light kiss on her cheek.Jade waved at him and walked away but shortly walked back to hug him. “Thank you for your time." Khalil sniffed in her scent as his eyes slowly raised to meet Xavier's angry eyes although he tried to hide it. " Let me know if you need me.” He whispered into her ear.Jade walked to Xavier's car and got in without letting him open the door for her.His fingers tightened around the steering wheel as they drove in silence.He slightly looked at her dress and the hug she shared with Khalil kept flashing in his head.He felt hot anger filling him up gently.Why
Maria watched Jade pace around the room. Jade couldn't decide if to go out and confront Carrie or not, although Maria begged her not to make a scene.“And my husband?” She turned to the servant girl.“He is still not back, that's why she is still waiting in the living room.” Maria answered.How dare Xavier bring another woman into their home?How can he stab her like that?Jade walked to the door but Maria followed her hot on the tail. “Don't worry, I just want to take a look. I won't go downstairs.”Jade and Maria watched Carrie from behind on of the huge pillars on the third floor. “How long do you know Carrie?” Jade asked.“After I started working for Mr. Stone. She was usually not around most of the time” Maria replied.Then, Xavier walked in.“Sh,” Jade whispered as they watched.Carrie greeted Xavier but he only nodded.“ I've been waiting for hours and I wasn't even attended to by your staff.” She sounded offended. “All of them totally ignored me!”Jade silently chuckled. She
Jade looked up at Maria, trying to process what she just said as she waited for the servant girl to repeat herself. “Ma'am, please…” “Repeat what you just said.” Jade shut the book she was reading and jumped off the bed but the door flung open. The two ladies looked towards the door as Xavier walked in. “Didn't you get my message?” He huskily asked. Maria walked out to give them privacy. Jade frowned a little. “And when did we start eating together at the dining table?” “There's always a first time for everything.” He replied, briefly looking at her pajamas. “You have five minutes to get downstairs. “I don't want to be anywhere close to Carrie, you know that so what the hell are you playing at?” Jade angrily asked. “There's absolutely no reason why I'd eat with her. I'm trying to keepy sanity intact but it's almost as if you want me to lose my mind.” “The child in Carrie's belly is as good as yours. Don't keep me waiting.” He replied. Jade breathed and called Maria back when
Jade handed her yoga bag to Maria as Denzel opened her bedroom door. “How was today's session?” Maria asked. Jade has been disturbingly silent since Carrie moved into the house days ago. She even started yoga and meditation to improve her mental health and keep her mind off Xavier's betrayal. Jade knew deep down it's either she breaks or she destroys everything around her. And if it ever comes down to a decision, she will fucking annihilate everything! Because she can't afford to break. “It was nice. Join me sometimes.” She smiled at her. “Run me a bath, will you?” “Yes, ma'am.” Maria bowed and did as ordered. Jade walked to the bed when she spotted a gift box in the middle of the bed. “Maria? Do you know who left this?” She picked it. “Left what?” Maria walked out of the closet and watched her unwrap the present. “No, I have no idea.” Jade rolled her eyes when she pulled out a phone. “It's an iPhone.” Maria happily said. “It's from Xavier.” She threw away the card th
“Um.” Khalil hesitated. “Maria called.” He sat on the bed and caressed her chin.For some reason, he was scared at what her reaction might be. He didn't want her to make an irrational decision that could destroy him.“What? Is she okay?” Jade worriedly asked. “I totally forgot about her. Is she fine? Why did she call?”“She said Xavier permitted her to leave.” He said.“Did he kick her out or was that her decision?” Jade wrapped herself with the sheets. “I need to talk to her.”“Jade.” Khalil held her back when she attempted to get down the bed. “It was her decision. She asked for it.”“Oh.” She sat back down. “But then, why? She has no one. I hope she didn't do it because I left.”Khalil slightly licked his lips, deciding if he should tell her why Maria called or just pretend she never said what she did and move in with his life with Jade.But that would be cruel, and he will never be able to forgive himself if ever he did that to someone.“You told her about my proposal.” He looked
“Khalil.” His voice whispered into her ears. “Khalil.” “Khalil!” She moaned. “Kha…lil..” Her eyes rolled to the back of her head.Her legs began to shake but he didn't stop as she let it all go and soon, she was moaning at the top of her voice and enjoying the ecstasy as she felt his hot cum spread in her belly, deep in her system.Khalil went down on her again to lick up her juices.Jade finally opened her eyes with a smile and Khalil laid beside her in the bed.The room was quiet but their breaths harmonically sounded in the air.Jade cuddled closer to him but Khalil suddenly moved away. “What is it?”The prince climbed down the bed and walked to the closet and Jade couldn't keep her eyes off his proudly standing shaft.He got a towel and wrapped it around his waist.“Why are you covering up?” Jade sat up naked in the bed with a frown.“Because we need to talk and I don't want any distraction.” He stopped a distance from her.“What? You're regretting having sex with me?” Tears fill
Jade slowly opened her eyes with a stretch and looked around. How did she get on the bed?Memories of yesterday came rushing in.She felt a light headache when she sat up on the bed with a yawn.There was a white pill in a plate and a jar of water on the bedside table.Jade swallowed the pill and climbed down the bed.There is definitely someone in the house and it's probably Khalil.Jade looked around the house but there wasn't any sign of him. “Khalil?” She called but no response.She walked back to her room but then realized there was a room down the hall.“Khalil?” She pushed the door open and walked in. The shower was running.A briefcase was on the bed along with some clothes too. Everything was neatly arranged and in order, even his bed.She was so distracted she didn't hear the shower turn off and the door open.“Jade?” Khalil called, making her jump a little. She turned to look at him but her head quickly snapped away.“Oh my God! I'm so sorry.” She apologized.He was naked
“Xavier!” She banged the door. “Xavier!” Jade didn't stop screaming and hitting the door.“Open the fucking door! You can't do this to men! Xavier! Fuck you!!!“ She fell to the ground in tear.She felt a sharp pain in her chest.No, this can't happen. It's not fair. He can't just throw her out when he wants.“Xavier!” Jade weakly called.What will she do now?Jade stood to her feet and thoroughly wiped her face, looking at the huge doors.Xavier.Jade walked to the car Carrie gave her earlier and ignited it.Where will she go to now?Jade angrily climbed down the car and walked back to the doors but stopped when she almost knocked again.What is she doing to herself? What is all these?Why can't she just let go and save herself the pain?She went back to the car and drove off.‘I don't want to ever see you again.’ His voice kept resonating in her mind.Those were his left words to her.“Fuck you!” She hit the steering wheel as tears blinded her.Jade stopped the car to weep for a mome
“I'm simply rewriting the stars. I'm putting them back in place. So thank me for setting you free, isn't that what you always wanted? You wanted to run, now I'm making a way for you. Xavier will kick you out of the house himself and you will forever be free. He will let go of you.” Carrie continued. “HE will let YOU go.” “W-what?” “Here.” She dropped the key on the table. “There's a car parked outside. The faster you made it back home, the faster you'd be able to tell Xavier the truth. But if I beat you to it, goodbye, Jade.” Carrie walked away. “Carrie!” She started to untie her legs. “Carrie!” Jade stood to her feet and picked the keys, running in Carrie's direction. “Carrie!” Jade couldn't find Carrie so she jumped into the car that was parked outside the building. ‘He will let you go.’ Carrie's voice kept ringing in her head. Does she really want Xavier to let her go? Jade's heart kept beating fast as she tried to locate her way back. She can't let Carrie succeed with her
Jade slowly around to look at him. “Do I know you?” He had brown hair and brown eyes. “No, but I know you and that's enough.” He said with a smirk that naturally curled up his lips. “So who are you?” Jade didn't know why she wasn't scared or felt like the man standing right in front of her won't hurt her and might just be what she'd been looking for. “Zane.” He introduced himself and offered her a handshake which she took. Jade paused, she knows that name. She'd heard it before. “I wish we met sooner.” He continued. “I've been dying to meet you.” “Why?” Zane admired her beauty. “Let's just say I like taking what doesn't belong to me.” He smiled and let go of her hand. “What do you want?” Jade asked. “Xavier's head.” He stated. Jade looked at him, lifting her chin with a smirk. Zane was a physically built man and also had tattoos just like Xavier although he was bigger than her husband. “You want my husband's head?” She chuckled. “You're really a smart woman, Jade. Forgi
Jade and Maria walked into the mall with Denzel right behind them.“Do you want one, Denzel?” Jade asked, selecting ice cream flavors.“I'm good, ma'am.” He simply replied.“What is your favorite flavor?” Jade asked again.“Um.” Denzel adjusted a little. “Vanilla.”“That's bullshit!” Jade looked at the flavors. “Who likes vanilla?”“I like vanilla too.” Maria said.Jade looked at her in disbelief. “You too? Shame.” She shook her head. “That's like the most plain flavor ever.”Maria chuckled as she watched Jade study the ice cream.“I think I know the perfect flavors for you two.” Jade looked at them and back at the man patiently waiting. “Mint and pineapple in a cone for the gentleman.” Jade waited for it to be scooped up and gave it to Denzel. “Try it you will love it.”“I really shouldn't.” Denzel insisted.“I won't repeat myself.” She held it out. “You won't come to the mall and not have ice cream at least.”Denzel hesitantly took the cone from her. “Thanks.” “And for the ladies,
“Jade, please don't do this.” Maria tried to take back the bags Jade was angrily packing up.“Stay out my way, I'm warning you.” Jade picked one of the already packed bags.“What about Mr. Stone?” Maria planted herself in front of her, trying to stop her from walking out.“He doesn't want me here, I'm leaving.” Jade plainly said. “I'm tired of being rejected and taken for granted when all I give him is love.”“He is just mad, I'm very sure he is working on finding out the truth. Please be patient.”Maria begged.“For how long? Honestly, this time, I'm really done.” Jade pushed her aside and angrily opened the door.“Ma’am!” Maria went after her.“Where do you think you're going to?” Xavier asked from behind.Jade stopped in her tracks and quickly turned to look at him. “I'm leaving.”Xavier looked at her with no expression. “I'm sure you know how this goes, I've threatened you a quite good number of times. Don't make me actualize them today.”“What's the point of me being here?”Xavier
Jade watched the video in shock. It was the day she visited Xavier's empire. When she found out that Carrie wasn't carrying Xavier's child and went into her office. ‘ “What are you doing here? You've never been here before.” Carrie asked. “Is it wrong to visit my husband's empire?” Jade smiled. “He brought me in today. It's good to get acquainted to my properties. Just one day, I will have all of these. I already have, it belongs to my husband after all.” “You can dream on.” Carrie rolled her eyes. “Xavier put in a lot of work into building everything he has today. Why do you think he will just give it to you?” “And who said I'll wait until he gives it to me? If he doesn't, I will have to take it.” Jade smirked. “What are you saying, Jade? Do you even know who you are talking about? The Mafia Lord, do you think you can fool him?” Carrie asked. “Oh you stupid thing, I have him wrapped around my little finger. He won't know what will hit him. So I advise you to leave this boat bef
