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
Jade quickly went downstairs when she heard some funny noise." What happening?” She asked with a frown. Maria was right behind her.There were balloons and flowers in different colors.Jade walked to Carrie who held a pad and a pen.“Oh hey Jade! Future co-wife.” Carrie happily teased her." What are you doing to my house?” Jade ignored her obvious pretense. " What's the meaning of all these?”" Oh, you were not informed? Well, my fiance had already set a date for our wedding. The invites will be brought in tomorrow.” Carrie said with a huge smile." Wedding?” Jade was shocked to the bones. She knew Xavier said he'd marry her but she didn't expect it to be so soon or he'd actually go through with it.“I know it's hard for you right now but remember the other day? When you said I should ask for your help when I need it? Well, you can help me pick out my wedding dress. I'm finding it difficult to pick one for the biggest day of my life..” Carrie stopped when Jade turned and headed for
Red rashes started growing on her parents rapidly.“I can't breathe!" Her father started gasping as she dialed someone and placed the phone on her ears. “Please hang in there!" She cried." Oh Lord! Look at your skin!” Her mother held out her hand, which boils were growing on.Carrie shouted in horror while Jade quickly climbed down the stairs.“Calm down, Carrie." Jade worriedly said.“Calm down!? This is all your fault! Look at my hands! I have boils over…” Carrie froze in terror when she touched her face and felt boils on them too.Jade snapped her fingers. " Help them!” She said to her staff. " Get something to ease the pain.”Xavier shortly walked down stairs, confused as to what happened.Jade and Maria were standing at the side while Carrie was crying next to her father who was finding it difficult to breath but was helped by one of the staff.Carrie ran to him. " Look at me!” She cried. " I'm hideous! Look at what Jade did to my parents!” " Excuse you?” Jade answered." You
A smile fell across her face when she read the card.‘On the balcony’She picked the red sexy dress he got for her for the dinner and placed it on her body, looking in the huge mirror in her room.“That's beautiful." Maria admired her.Jade nodded in agreement.She was so happy Xavier decided to do something special for her. And she won't deny it, she really missed her husband.So Jade took a quick shower even when she'd taken her bath few minutes ago.As usual, she didn't wear any panties nor bra, she likes to make the fuck very easy. She applied red lipstick and walked to the balcony they usually have dinner whenever he feels like doing something romantic for them.Rose petals gracefully carpeted the floor as she made her way to the table for two.There as a violinist already making melodies with his instrument while the cold breeze played with the lit candles.A suited man drew out her chair and poured her some of the champagne.All she wanted was Xavier. Why isn't he here alread
*Flashback*(Jade's POV)Justin pulled out a chair for me and I sat happily.I am always excited when I get to spend time with him and sometimes wish I could just have him all to myself.The dates and sneaking around wasn't just enough for me anymore although it is all my fault. I wanted more but couldn't, well not right now.Justin looked around the restaurant and back to me.It was obvious he has something to say but kept it in instead.“Are you okay?” I asked, trying to get him say whatever was on his mind.“It's nothing.” He picked up the menu.“What do you want to eat?”“Are you really not gonna tell me?” I frowned a little.The last thing I wanted was a bad date. As if limited dates weren't enough?“What's the point? It won't change a single thing.” He shrugged and angrily dropped the menu with a low sound.I studied him for a while. Justin hardly gets angry and when he eventually does, it was usually for a very good reason and I can't remember doing anything to upset him.“Are
