Seventy-One

Jasmine's POV. "Talk about what?" I asked while halting my process. "About the revolutionizing of the board. After everything that happened that day, a lot of people had come to me to discuss the next plans, and we concluded that they were a bit overwhelmed because I stopped overseeing the business." He started. I rubbed a finger across my lips because this was one of the most stupid reasons I could hear a board give. I saw it as a way of deflection so that they didn't get penalized which I considered cowardly but didn't want to get involved in that scenario. One of the things that I would have done had I been the one in charge was to completely detach myself from them and get other people to run it."So are they seeking an apology or what?" I had to inquire so that I knew what I was doing and who was going to court. "That's the problem. No one is rendering any apology. It's more of an excuse. Sorry, that is not going to fly, but I still think that we should hold on with suing any

Seventy-Two

Jasmine's POV. Three weeks later, The driver pulled right in front of the large building. It was probably a consortium; that was how big Jake was willing to take this. He wanted to wow the world, and I think it was doing quite a fine, mighty job with it. "May I see your pass ma'am?" The bouncer inquired from me the minute I got to the top of the porch. I smiled at him and dipped my hand into my pocket to withdraw my invitation card. Because I wanted to make a fashion statement, I refused to come in the same vehicle that brought Mr Blackwood. Coming together was going to dim my light, and I was taking his advice personally. He advised me not to do my light and that was exactly what I was doing. "Here it is." I handed it over to him. "You are welcome, ma'am." He bowed slightly and I took that as a cue from him. "Right, thank you," I replied before walking inside. I found myself in front of a foyer; I had not yet accessed the party. There were another three sets of bouncers right

Seventy -Three

Jasmine's POV. A small smile appeared on my face immediately I saw her mouth drop open in shock. This was the most fulfilling experience of my life. Gwen was gobsmacked because she never expected that I was the CEO of arcade lives. A company where Jake had been trying to get into for a long time but I had sabotaged his efforts. "W-what? She possibly cannot be the CEO of arcade lives!" She exclaimed, her eyes growing wide. I smiled at her condescendingly. "Now you know that I am the CEO, what are you going to do about it? Allow me in or make me leave?" I inquired from her which made her mouth drop further. "You possibly cannot be the CEO. You are my father's daughter. How did you suddenly have such access to such a company? Or are you just parading yourself like the CEO? You better tell me the truth before I find out the main reason. Trust me when I say I will drag your name through the mud." She replied angrily.If she were a cartoon character, smoke would have begun to come out o

Seventy-Four

Jasmine's POV. Mr Blackwood drew nearer to me the minute he saw me walking into the hall. "You look beautiful. I was not expecting you to show up today. Do we need to employ some level of protection?" He muttered under his breath, making me laugh softly. He grabbed my arm gently like he was afraid that it was going to fall out. An exaggeration, probably but I wanted to make things easier for myself too."Oh, is there something wrong?" I asked him quietly. Jake's eyes were on me and I basked in his disbelief, his eyes were fixated on me and I could see the regret all over him. One of the major reasons that will not make me really complain is the fact that I got my desired act from him. He was not expecting me to be the CEO and the shock on his face was enough. "I heard what happened outside. My son is going to be pissed. He's coming your way." He informed me. I refused to turn so that I did not give him the impression that I was also waiting for his admiration or approach. We were

Seventy-Five

Jasmine's POV.I could feel a dagger at the back of my head, but I refused to pay attention. I was careful enough not to take any drinks or food shared because they could probably slip poison into one of those to extricate me. "Gwen is already hyperventilating. Why don't you go and comfort her so that she doesn't turn on you and get angry? We wouldn't want that from your lovely wife now, would we?" I mocked him. His eyes crinkled, and at that moment, if he was able to strangle me and get away with it, he would not have hesitated one bit. I wasn't scared because I knew what was happening. He is supposed to face the music fair square and no one is going to help him out of that. "You have become so pompous and I must tell you that you're distraction is already near. If you don't change before it is too late, I promise you that I will make your life miserable. There is absolutely nothing wrong with you owning a business, but trying to block the right partner simply because you are thre

Seventy-Six

Jasmine's POV. From his proposition, I already knew the kind of morals he possessed. If he could try to sway me to his angle just to have a piece of me, then even Jake wasn't even safe but he didn't know that he was already in problems. Jake's glare intensified yet he couldn't say a word. Another highlight of a coward. He was business partners with someone who he couldn't challenge to do the right thing. I would have challenged him instantly but decided not to help him do his duty. He went into the partnership with his eyes wide Open so he has to face the consequences and not cry wolf. "You should not do something that would get me angry. I thought that everyone already knows the kind of person you are and they would like for both of us to become partners." He continued. I refuse to fall into the trap of exchanging words with him. He was a mafia don who was very active to do evil. I on the other hand had no much backup except Mr blackwood and even that was not enough for me to brin

Seventy-Seven

Jasmine's POV. "What did Donovan want from you?" Mr Blackwood demanded from me the minute we stepped out, and I rolled my eyes. This man was practically jealous of the non-existent and I couldn't help but laugh at his ignorance. Why the hell would you even think that I was having anything to do with someone who was trying to ruin my life? "Are you jealous Mr blackwood? You could come out and say that instead of asking such back-handed questions." I teased him, but it didn't go down well with him because he kept on frowning. It didn't help that he didn't come with his driver today so he was marching to his car. I walked calmly toward him. He knew how much I disliked these people, yet still felt like there was a hidden agenda between both of us. "Why do you always make me get angry? You know that they left me for dead and everything that happened. Why do you think I'm going to be involved with someone like that? I do not like Jake, no Donovan, and my stance is not going to change a

Seventy-Eight

Jasmine's POV. "Y-you cannot be serious. You cannot tell me to divorce a woman I brought into my house of my volition. I know that you are angry that I got married to another person but my wife isn't in the least involved in any of this. She didn't plan to get rid of you, you are just angry at us for no reason. The main person you should be angry at is Jake. I'm trying to restore order." My father said all in a rush, yes my decision wasn't going to change anytime soon. It was either he did what I said or he never heard from me again. "The choice is yours. I'm not the one begging to talk to you. If you truly want me to forgive you then you will do what your lovely daughter asked. It's not that hard if you ask me but I know that with your controlling wife behind all of this, you wouldn't be able to stand your ground against her which is understandable." I said in a sing-song voice. He was going to regret ever not defending me when his new wife tried to make my life a living hell. I

Seventy-Nine

Jasmine's POV. I had never anticipated to get home in my life like today. Why did I feel like something was wrong and it was going to change the course of things? I was someone who wanted things to go according to plan in my head and didn't want any alteration of any kind. It would mess up the plans I had in mind and I would not be able to bounce back from it just quite immediately."Do you plan on getting a divorce? Or is there something you would like to tell me?" I demanded from him as he continued to drive. Mr Blackwood didn't reply to me, and that even heightened my curiosity. "I hate it when people do not tell me what I want to hear. Can we just talk about it and not drag things? We are going to talk about it anyway so why do we need a special place for this discussion? I don't do well with suspense." A small smile appeared on his face as he intentionally drew out his answer. "I remember that night, you were in such a hurry that one would think you had done it before." He sai

Eighty

Rain's POV. The only one who came to mind was Jake yet I wasn't going to hurt my son just because of something trivial. I wanted to have a word with him so that we could finalize things and also know what else to do. I placed a call to him. He had to apologize for treating her the way he did. Jasmine rolled on the bed as soon as she heard my shuffling. One of the things I loved about her was her ability to be able to be observant of her surroundings. "Where are you going?" She inquired from me as soon as she saw me getting up. "Do you have a meeting tonight?" She inquired, but I refused to respond because that was only going to compound her curiosity, and I knew how it was going to play out. With a slight shake of my head, I replied. "No, this is not something serious. I just need to sort out some things in my study. I could order some food for you because you are quite famished." I pointed out. She wasn't anorexic, but I had also studied her to see that whenever she was trouble
