All Chapters of The Adored CEO: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"I am not aware Miss Williams said that. She's right though, my privacy is important." Jasper replied. Jessa nodded in understanding, "I understand, now please put it here."She stretched her phone towards him, he collected it and dialled his number. He gave the phone back to her, she has a satisfactory smile on her face. Jasper sighed in frustration, he knows he just added to his list of headaches. "I'll be going now. I'm going to call you later." Jessa said. "Yes, later Jessa." He said happy she is leaving. Jessa unexpectedly kissed his cheek before walking away. Jasper is shocked that this woman can be so straightforward and fearless. He looked around hoping no one saw that. Raina came down thirty minutes later, she doesn't have a smile on her face like always. Jasper is getting used to seeing this grumpy side of her, if she smiled on day then he would probably disappear fast. "Where are we going to now?" He asked her before starting the car. "Take me to the company, where el

Raina tried to separate from him to no avail. She tried to say something so he moved his hand from her mouth, she gasped in some air. Then she glared at him. "Jasper Smith! Do you have a death wish? Let go of me right now or I'm going to send you to the world beyond!" She threatened him. "On one condition, you're going to let me sleep in my room tonight. I am too tired and can't guard you. You do that or people are going to spread rumors about us. I don't think we have much time, you should make a decision fast." He replied with a smirk. "All these because you don't want to guard me? What a useless idiot. Let me go, you can go have your beauty sleep." Jasper let go of her, she wanted to get up when she saw a maid coming. She laid back on him to hide her face, her eyes met with his. Their heart raced faster, both unable to take their eyes off each other. Jasper stared at her lips, having the urge to kiss them. He restrained himself and looked away, bringing Raina back to her senses

Jasper received a call from his mother at work that his sister has been arrested for harassing someone, he didn't ask who it is yet. He hung up and barged into Raina's office. Raina was startled at the force with which he used to open the door. "Quit barging into my office like that!" She yelled at him. "I'm sorry." He apologized. "You're sorry? You're not going to say something arrogant? What's this about?" She asked noticing his bad mood. "I need to take a few hours off. I'll be back soon I promise." He replied, hoping she won't force him to stay back. He doesn't want to show himself at the police station, now his sister got into trouble. "Where are you going? At least give me a good reason why I should let you go." Raina inquired. "I need to... I need to see my sister. She got arrested." Jasper told her the truth. "Do you need help? I can call whoever is in charge and your sister will be released." She offered. "Thank you Miss Williams, but I'll rather sort this out myself.

"What did you say?" She asked him in shock. He gave a nervous laugh. "Okay you don't have to take me seriously. I was just saying things out of my head. Must be the influence of alcohol."She did not believe him but decide to let it slide. She asked him another question again. "What do you think about having a girlfriend?""I don't know. I haven't found the one that can be in that position. Also I don't think the person I love would accept me. She doesn't like me." He replied sincerely. "Well that must be because you are a jerk. I can relate with whoever that is." He laughed, "I'm not that bad, I just haven't found the right person like I said before. Why not believe me?"She shrugged, "Why don't you convince me. There's nothing to lose." He moved his eyes to her lips, "You really want me to convince you? Are you sure of that?""Yes, convince me you're someone who can be a great boyfriend." She dared him. He moved his hands to her hair stroking it gently, she also stopped movin

The next day was great for Jasper as he didn't have to worry about arguing with Raina every time. She has really changed and become nice, most especially to him. They talked a lot, Raina got fond of him that she always asked him to stay in his office.Raina had asked him to go talk on another of her Spanish clients since he was so good with the language. She never expected to see Richard at the office, it seems Richard took the opportunity that Jasper went out to come there. At least no one would stop him from talking to her now."What do you think you're doing here Richard? Didn't I make myself clear that I didn't want to see you unless it's for business? And how dare you barge into my office just like that?" Raina yelled, though she's afraid she didn't show it. She tried to act strong and not let the fear get the best of her. She wished she had not sent Jasper away earlier.Richard sat down on the chair with his legs crossed. "I actually came to give you a good information, I also w
