Thirty- One

Blackwood's POV. I watched her shut her eyes softly and wondered how she got such tough skin. She never wanted anyone to penetrate those walls that she had built for herself and sometimes I felt like shaking her to get information from her. She was secretive except for trying to get into Donovan's lair. No one would want to pass up a good woman such as this except for my stupid son. I was yet to understand how he would let her go. She complained about me being aloof but it was just a way of me protecting myself from being ripped like usual from a lot of girls who just saw me as a way of getting money.My phone rang and I winced at the sound because it was a bit too loud and I thought it was going to wake her up from her slumber. She looked so beautiful and I could almost imagine her belly filled with my child. I shook my head to get rid of those images that had refused to leave on their own. Why the hell would I even be planning a future with someone whom I was sure didn't have su

Thirty- Two

Jasmine's POV. I didn't know what I was expecting but this was totally far from it. As soon as I entered the yacht, I was greeted with the sight of a lot of men in the first dock. I subconsciously leaned into Mr Blackwood's arm and looked at him in betrayal. "You didn't tell me that we were going to be meeting new people. Not only one or two, almost 10 people." I spoke.Was this how this whole stuff was supposed to go?" I wondered. Having never experienced something like this in my entire life I was a bit spooked. "They are the crew members, but since we are going to be doing some live content and a lot of stuff just to make our union believable, it's good that they are present." He explained but that didn't suffice or calm my nerves from the first shock I had received without warning. I nodded and a few of the men removed their hats before bowing towards me in greeting. This was weird. We weren't from the royal family so it didn't make sense. "Why are they doing that? Is it part

Thirty-Three

Jasmine's POV.I lounged on the open part of the yacht as I watched the skies take a cloudy turn. It was probably my paranoia getting me to think dangerously but I was still a bit scared that something could go wrong despite having experts on this sail."You look troubled, don't tell me you are thinking about my son and the case you are about to present to the court." Mr Blackwood spoke but I refused to look up. I had other thoughts running through my mind and adding his wasn't going to tell me any good. "a lot of people think that certain things are because of them but it's not. I understand that you think my life revolves around your son but it's not the truth. I just want to experience nature and see everything that it has to offer me." I told him politely. "Do you, now?" He pulled out a seat and plopped on it gently while watching me. I refused to give him the audience he wanted because it wasn't going to do me any good. "Is there a particular reason for staring at me so hard?"

Thirty-Four

Jasmine's POV. The loud clicks of cameras irritated me more than anything else but I maintained my composure and kept on staring as though I was enjoying the phase, I couldn't phantom why they were doing this. I knew that I was not interested in this conversation that I smiled anyway."Tell me more about your husband. It's been all over the news that you are always by him, never letting him go and I think it's very beautiful." The reporter lied as we descended from the yacht. Could they even allow me to get into the island before coming with their fake love? "Yeah, a lot of people may have heard it but I would not stop telling anyone who cares to know. My husband is the best thing that happened to me and we are so much in love, we hope that people also experience what we share so that they can be happy in life."Mr blackwood's hand shot towards my shoulder and I leaned instinctively into his hold. They were trying to get us to speak. These weren't the people who were supposed to do

Thirty-Five

Jasmine's POV. The walk to the other arena had me almost cackling at the way Mr blackwood was frowning. He looked murderous and I was a bit scared but decided not to let it show. "Is there a problem?" I inquired from him stylishly and watched him furrow his brows."No." He answered curtly which made me laugh so heartily that one would think that I had lost my mind. He was amusing me without even trying and it made things even funnier. "how do you even cope with your ego?" I asked him and he rolled his eyes at me, obviously angry. There was absolutely no way I could pacify this man."You might want to listen to me so that we don't have any problems." He said authoritatively. I didn't want to follow the rules so he was going to have to deal with me however he got. "Oh really?" I inquired, deliberately testing his patience. "Why are you so angry at an imaginary person? I don't even have anyone I am seeing at the moment but the way you are acting, I might just find myself getting someo

Thirty-Six

Jake's POV. "Have you managed to get everyone on deck? I hate the fact that I have to repeat myself when you can just do the right thing." I scolded my workers. They were going to make me lose this deal today. After what Jasmine had done, some of my silent partners began to call me and ask that she represent us. "Yes sir," Jessie spoke and I rolled my eyes. There was no way I could get angry at her when she was on her very best behavior. How do you get angry at such a person without seeming like a wicked person?I slammed my arm on the desk and looked up. "This is taking too long and you don't have any right to give me excuses because they don't fly anymore. You had one job to do, get those files ready, distribute them to our partners and let me work on the rest. But what did you do, you are just telling me right now that this is not complete?!" Jessie shook in shock but I wasn't going to listen to her anymore. She was only going to make me feel like a fool but I knew what I was do

Thirty-Seven

Chapter 36. Jasmine's POV.The weekend came faster than I expected and I was so grateful for that because it helped me to recharge my batteries. Talking to people on the island was draining me out and the only way that I could be free from such was to find a better way to relax and get things done without thinking of anyone. "The meeting will begin soon, and I hope that you are prepared for it so that we are able to get over and done with Jake's involvement," Rafael spoke; I was learning to call his name most of the time because of how he had wanted it to be. Working throughout the weekend was very hectic and I just felt like running away somewhere and forgetting that I ever existed. It would help me a lot more than I would want to admit. "So... Do you mind some pina coladas?" He asked me but I wasn't even in the mood for any of that right now. I just wanted to sleep. I rubbed my face with my hands hoping that he understood what I was trying to say. "I am very tired at the moment

Thirty-Eight

Jasmine's POV. "It's nice to see you again, Jazzy?" Jake spoke the moment he saw me but I wasn't finding it funny anyway. "Glad to know that you still recognized me, for a second I thought you might have forgotten who I was." I answered him. He was laughing all the way but there was nothing funny to me because he knew that I didn't care about whatever he was doing. He was only looking for a way of bringing me out but I wasn't going to allow that anymore. "Now that you are here, what do you want from us?" I asked him. He should know that I saw through his facade. Jake's smile wiped off his face instantly when he saw that I was not going to give him any audience. He had to earn my smile. "Can you even pretend to be at least happy for us? Surely, you can't be so cruel." He retorted, thinking that it was a perfect comeback but I was tired of discussing this with him. "You should know better than this. I don't really care about you. I don't care for your existence or your marriage.

Thirty-Nine

Blackwood's POV. I overheard my son's conversation with Jasmine and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed by her guts. She wasn't some pushover and it was refreshing to see someone her age determined to get revenge, her eyes were set on the goal but it brooked another question in my mind. How was it possible that Jake wouldn't know the kind of person he was getting married to? She had probably always had this resilient spirit but was only waiting for the appropriate time to express it. One just didn't change overnight. I headed into the kitchen and saw his wife Gwen cutting some onions and trying to cook. This lady had guts but not a lot of decency. How would someone in their right senses decide to cook in a house where they knew they weren't invited? It didn't make any sense to me. "What are you doing Gwen?" I inquired from her just to be sure that I wasn't jumping into conclusions. "I am trying to make something for you guys. It's going to turn out so nice, does my sister

Forty

Jasmine's POV.Dinner could not come quickly enough, and I was shocked when Mr Blackwood came close to me and whispered in my ears. "I am going to be making the announcement tonight. I hope you're ready for this ride." He smiled and I nodded. This was so surreal and I hope that for the life of me I was just thinking about it and this was totally untrue, how the hell was I supposed to comprehend being the new CEO of the company that wasn't remotely linked to me except by marriage. A fake one at that. "What is really your plan Mr Blackwood?" I inquired from him and watched his eyes twinkle with mischief. I guess that was where Jake got his mischief from. I didn't want to believe that he was going to stop his own son and....I shook my head and adjusted my dress. He had taken time to order a dress for me without my knowledge and I was grateful for it because the things I had packed didn't fit the so-called dinner. On my way downstairs, I heard chatters coming from the stairs and I loo
