Call Me Mummy, Dear Ex: The Betrayed Fiancee Strikes Back/Lyra's Pen

Jasmine's POV. "So tell me exactly what you want to achieve from this venture?" Mr Blackwood inquired as soon as I sat on this chair. I rolled my eyes at his pushy attitude. Of course he was going to ask such a question, that was the only way he could satisfy his curiosity which wasn't that bad anyway."I think I need to rest before answering this interrogation." I answered. We could play the same game. If he wasn't going to dance to my tune there was no need for me to give the information that he so needed. It was as simple as that. He focused on typing on his tablet but I didn't feel slighted at all. Instead I took that time to plan my next strategy. With what I had known about him, it was evident that he only wanted the piece of information without the conditions attached. "How do you even have connections with Donovan or anything going on in the underworld?" He inquired but I pretended not to hear. He tapped my arm and I smiled at him. "Oh sorry I didn't hear you. What is the

Jake's POV"Gwen, I hope you have gotten all the bags ready. It's getting late. I don't know why you didn't allow Amber to pack all your things. We don't want to miss our flight just because of a pair of shoes." I called in annoyance. She was getting on my last nerve and right, and she was spinning. "Baby..." She called the high-pitched pitch, and I shook my head. It was going to go down. "Why are you fretting?" She inquired as her feet slapped across the stairs. I rolled my eyes. My wife never hurried, even if her life depended on it. "Why am I fretting? Do you know how much it would cost to reschedule our flight? I didn't even have the patience to go through all that stress. If we miss the flight today, then we can kiss it goodbye," I told her sincerely.Many people didn't like hearing the truth because they felt it was too hard to accept. "So you don't love me anymore. What happened to doing everything I wanted? You promised, Jake, that you were going to do everything I wanted,

Jasmine's POV. "I presume that's your lovely son you're talking to?" I teased him, loving the way his eyes flared angrily that I was spot on. “Jake… Jake, isn't it weird that your son enjoys running into trouble all the time? I mean, one would think that with his level of exposure he wouldn't be dancing to a lady's tune." I mocked him. This was the perfect example of a person wanted you, they would go an extra mile just to have you but now I was wiser. "Don't you think that you are in too much pain because my son didn't think you were good enough for him?”“It's normal for people to feel whatever they want to feel. We don't need to act like they have done something so grave to us.”“It's one of those things that we would scale through. Now back to the matter at hand... I decided to have this conversation with you just because I want to understand the dynamics of what you said." He answered.His reply stung, affecting my esteem because I wasn't even expecting such a reply. Such a b

Jasmine's POVAt the Hotel.I felt a pair of arms holding me up and my eyes fluttered open in shock to see Mr Blackwood carrying me like a baby. "What are you doing? Are you trying to cause a scene?" I chided him, trying to stop the way he was acting in public. Sometimes I found it hard to understand this man. One minute he was saying something, the next he was doing quite the opposite. His lips lifted into a smirk while I shook my head at his way of life. "My darling, if we are going to show solidarity then we have to give the press something to talk about. They already captioned us as lovers, why then don't we just make it official?" He inquired and leaned down to kiss me. All traces of sleep vanished from my eyes instantly. This wasn't what I was expecting at all. Had they changed the initial Mr Blackwood and given me Romeo in return? "Are you sure that you are not high on something?" I inquired again to be sure that I wasn't dreaming. This was very weird. We hadn't even had th

Jasmine's POV. The Next Day. My eyes were fastened on the lady in front of me and I didn't know what I was thinking at that point. All I could notice was the fact that she was very beautiful and seemed like a genuinely nice person. It was hard to find people like this these days and the only way that I could understand this pattern was to just watch her attend to the customers at her desk. "Good morning ma!" She called cheerfully and I stood properly in the queue. "Can you step forward, Miss Jasmine?" She inquired which I obeyed. "It's nice to meet you Mr Blackwood has spoken highly of you. If I had known that you were going to be here this early I wouldn't have allowed you to stand for so long. Please follow my colleague upstairs and she will show you to the lounge. If you hear your name, kindly follow me." She called the next people and I confirmed her kindness wasn't based on what a person possessed. She was busy with attending to everyone equally. I have set my sights on her.

Jasmine's POV. I was stunned at his words. That sent a fast warning signal to my head. Something wasn't right with this meeting. If he wanted me not to have access to the world outside, then it only meant one thing. He was planning something sinister which I wasn't going to accept. "That isn't acceptable by all standards. I am not here to conduct an investigation." I answered him immediately. There were a lot of things that I wasn't going to accept from anyone. "You can tell your boss that I refused to come in. We have a meeting and this isn't part of the criteria." I went on further.The man in suit tapped his Bluetooth device and waited for a few seconds before nodding towards the door. "Better." I answered and strode into the office. For this reason I decided to switch on my location, inform Mr Blackwood of the latest development and try as much as possible to turn on my sound recorder. I needed to get as much evidence and information as possible. "Miss Jasmine... I'm sorry fo

Jasmine's POV.I heard it right at a restaurant that dealt with soothing one's stomach. As I placed my order, I swapped across my screen, enjoying various contents pushed out by creators. It was nice to see that people were thriving at their optimum and feeling the need to push it to the public eye.If I had my way I just wanted to live like a hermit. Do what needs to be done and let go of the rest. There was absolutely nothing that required me being in the news.I scrolled along my feed and saw a video of Gwen and Jake kissing on a yacht. I chuckled loudly and clicked on the page. Why shouldn't I enjoy my step sister and her husband's newly married life contents? They were probably on their honeymoon.Traitors, both of them, didn't know what was coming because then that was why they were spending money lavishly to rent a yacht. Sounds of heels clicking across the floor caught my attention and I raised my head to see who probably had those pairs. My eyes connected with my stepmother

Jasmine's POV. I was completely knackered when I returned to the hotel. The gravity of the incidents that happened had a way of reconfiguring my mind. I wasn't sure that I wanted to continue having a back and forth with my parents. All I needed was a commitment from Mr Blackwood.If it were up to me I would have ensured that we got married today so that I could move on with my plans. I didn't for the life of me understand why he was stalling. He had a waster for a son but wasn't going to admit it. I was the worst person to be betrayed because I was ready to deal with him as much as I wanted. My phone buzzed the second time and I rolled my eyes. Despite knowing who could be calling I didn't want to show that I was anticipating his call. He was a proud man and the best way to deal with such people was to walk in that same way.After dealing with Mr Archie who had returned my money at exactly 4.p.m, I knew that he was going to call. "Why are you ignoring my calls?" He inquired and I ro

Jasmine's POV “Do you take Mr Blackwood as your lovely wedded husband to love and to hold and to cherish to death do you part?” The priest spoke and I looked up at my groom. This wasn't part of the assignments but I just had to play along if I wanted to have the perfect revenge. “Yes, I do.” I answered. The priest had the decency to smile at me despite feeling quite the opposite. I was devoid of all forms of butterflies that women rumored to have when they walked the altar.This was purely a matter of convenience rather than love so it didn't hold any sentimental value to me. I only stared at my groom who was tucked in a nice tuxedo with his hair cut to perfection. At least I wasn't marrying an ogre. That was the only consolation prize. “With that, you may go ahead and kiss the bride.” The priest announced and Mr Blackwood wasted no minute in pulling my veil over my head and kissing me ardently. Okay, this was the only great part of this wedding. He was a good kisser and I guess

Jasmine's POV. "Fancy running into you here." I cooed the instant I saw my arch nemesis looking at me. His eyes splayed with shock but I wasn't happy just yet. I wanted something deeper. I needed something that would break him completely and stop the way he acted. If he thought that there was something that he could do to stop the wedding then he was already too late. "Where is your beloved wife?" I inquired.Jake's eyes roamed around the hall, taking in the designs that were absent during his time. It was surely going to hit him hard that his father had such a memorable wedding while he basically grasped for straws. "You are getting married to my father?" He uttered in disbelief.I shrugged softly. "Yeah, right... Exactly how it should be since we have suddenly gotten to a point where we exchange partners." I answered proudly. "You think that's right?" "No, I don't. I think that it's perfect. You started it, why are you suddenly crying as though something was taken away from yo
