All Chapters of Chasing my substitute bride: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Jazz POVI strode into Asphalt's company for the meeting that was about the new cosmetic product that would be launched soon.Arianna didn't accompany me this time due to some business she had to attend. I had made up my mind to ignore Asphalt at all costs. Soon, our contract would be terminated and I would end everything that concerned him.I was ready to move on and let go of everything that Asphalt had done to me. I was learning to kill the feelings I had for him. He made it clear to me that he would always choose Janet over me and I would be nothing but an unfortunate substitute.Immediately I walked into the meeting room, they started talking about the product and how it would be launched. They approximate sales it would make if it was centered on the right target. As the project manager was talking, I didn't fail to notice the way Asphalt gaze lingered on me. But I ignored it completely. If I turned to him, he would think that I had changed or thought of continuing whatever he

Jazz POVTwo days after Jacob declared me as his girlfriend on camera, we decided to make it official for the public to calm the buzz down.There were a lot of apologies from fans who had turned against me, praises from fans who believed in me and shipping fans who kept on promoting our relationship using the behind the scene videos we had done while acting on our last film.However, there were some doubts on whether we were truly dating or not and that was what we were here for right now."I know a lot of things would seem a bit tight for the two of you. But since you have started it, then we have to finish to end the netizens' fight over them. Some wished us well while some believed that we won't last.In general, I and Jacob were just friends saving each other's asses. Today, we were going to do a live broadcast to engage fans on how we started dating.It was a made up story by Arianna and some of my teammates. A perfect cover to hide a lie. After my light make up was done, I and J

Janet POV I rolled my eyes as Asphalt walked into my hospital ward. The doctor finished attending to me and I had lost the baby. A part of me wanted to laugh out loud and mock Asphalt but I had to keep it all in. When he sat down beside my bed, I started to act like I was lost in thoughts."Our baby is gone," I quietly said, holding my deflated belly."I'm sorry about this," Asphalt bent his head, feeling guilty as I had wanted him to be. This was trash, I wanted to get done with this plan and leave him empty without nothing.He reached for my hand and squeezed it tight before bringing it to his lips. "This is all my fault. If I had not invited her, if I had not considered her children then this wouldn't have happened. I'm so sorry Janet," he held my hand tight in a manner that showed his regret.This was what I wanted, for him to forget about Jazz and her children and dwell in nothing but sorrow and regret."It's not your fault, I wanted them to come too. None of us ever expected

A month after...Jazz's POVI couldn't contain my laugh after listening to Jacob's joke. He came to spend his weekend at our place and the kids liked it."Least I forget, um...so there is something I have been planning to tell. I hope it settles well with you. I was wondering if you would like to find your mom?," he asked and I looked at him, pausing my laughter.I never thought about my mom until now. There was a time I was eager to find her and know the reason why she had left me.But with time, I forgot about her and moved on. "I don't know, it has been a long time since I thought about her. Besides, it would be impossible to find her. I tried it once but the search failed. In general, I lost interest," I clearly stated having mixed feelings about what I had said."C'mon, Jasmine I want to meet your mom too. It would be nice if she explained herself. Who knows, she might be regretting why she abandoned you and doesn't have a means of reaching you," Arianna urged me as she fed Jere

Janet POV"I will be off to work, if you need anything just call me and I will answer immediately," Asphalt patted my head before he left my room.He had barely escaped death and he still had the courage to go to work. My fear must have been ineffective on him. I watched from my window as He drove out of the compound and smiled pleasantly. Today, I and Joe planned to meet up. I went into my closet and changed into something sexy enough to get his attention.On getting to the front door, Margaret decided to be a thorn on my skin. "You are supposed to be resting. Your husband will not be glad to find out that you left the house in your condition. He strictly warned me to have a good rest before he gets back," she said with a straight face that got on my nerves."I just want to meet up with my friends. It would be nice if I got some fresh air. I am tired of being cooped up in my room everyday. I am sure Asphalt will not mind me stepping out for a moment," I I flashed her a fake smile.
