Jess’s POV “Let’s go, Rob, we can’t wait for an ambulance when we have a car!” John yelled as they struggled to lift Jordan up. In one go, they lifted him and rushed out of the door. I had been standing on the same spot, unable to speak, react, or do anything. I couldn’t understand what was happening. “Girl, are you okay?” Maya patted my shoulder. We were the only ones left in the room, but I couldn’t find my speech. “I think we should follow them, just to make sure he’s fine,” Maya suggested, and I nodded. We rushed out of the office and got to the back entrance, where the guards were helping put Jordan in the backseat of his car. “Frank, get the car ready. We’re following them,” Maya yelled as he nodded and left. I watched John get into the driver’s seat and speed off as Frank brought my car. “Here, Miss Hart,” he said as he opened the doors for Maya and me. He quickly got in as well and followed directly behind Jordan’s car. My nails dug deep into my thighs as I fel

Jess’s POV“The wedding was horrible!” Dione said, and we burst out into laughter.Do you ever just bump into someone and have conversations like you’ve known each other for years? Well, that was Dione and I right now. We had been sitting and chatting so much that I completely lost track of time.“You said it was your sister’s wedding, right? So how come it was horrible?” I asked, staring him straight in the eye. Those dark brown eyes and lashes longer than Fiona’s real and fake lashes.He was breathtaking. This type of guy could lock me up in jail, and I wouldn’t dare ask why. His chiseled jawlines clenched tight even when he smiled; his dimples dug deeper than any I’ve seen. Talk more of perfect dentition and fresh mint breath. His choice of words carried aura and respect.“She got married to a dumb guy I had warned her not to marry. It’s a long story, but trust me, this guy’s not worth it.” He turned to me and smiled, showing me his perfect teeth.If he says the guy wasn’t worth hi

Jess’s POV“Do you like it?” Dione asked as I sipped from a glass of champagne that was brought to us by the waiter as a compliment. “I’ve had better, but not bad,” I answered, savoring the drink, allowing my taste buds to do the trick. “What do you think?” I asked. He brought the glass that had been sitting in front of him gently to his lips and tasted it. “I agree with you,” he said, without taking his eyes off me. In fact he hadn’t taken his eyes off me the entire evening. “What are you thinking of having?” Dione asked as he looked up at me with that charming smile. I scanned the menu again. “Uh, maybe the… filet mignon?” “Excellent taste, I see,” he chuckled. “I think I’ll go for the duck confit.” The waiter appeared, taking our order with a practiced grace, and I couldn’t help but notice how effortlessly Dione handled it all. Once he was done, the waiter turned on his heel and left. Earlier, I had said, “you look great too,” as a compliment to Dione. But oh my, I was just

Jordan’s POV“Take me home now!” Jess yelled, skipping the question I had asked her after contemplating for minutes. One could think she wasn’t sure whether she loved me or not, so I was going to ignore her banters till I got my answer.“Your hesitation makes me believe you do.” I smirked.She rolled her eyes. “In your wildest dreams. First, you interrupt my date and now you’re here forcing me against my will to answer silly questions? I knew you were an arrogant, stuck-up guy, but this is the height of it. Take me home now, or I’ll press charges against you for kidnap.”I laughed out so loud I almost couldn’t breathe. “How cute.” She stared at me, confused by my sudden outburst. The truth was, I knew I had hurt Jess, but it wasn’t my fault I had lost my memory and even if it wasn’t back, I could feel the strong connection we had.“You think this is funny, really?” She folded her arms and turned away from my gaze.“Yes, Jess, what you said amused me. I didn’t kidnap you, you followed

Jess’s POVI had prayed for the night to end so I could go home and rethink my actions. Was I really ready to date someone again? Was I doing this for myself, or was I doing it because I wanted to spike Jordan and I wanted him to care? The thoughts I had been trying to hide made me shudder as Dione’s car came to a halt.“I’m so happy you decided to give me a chance, Jess, and I promise I would never rush you into anything. I want to give you the best because that’s what you deserve and not the bare minimum,” his speech kept echoing in my ears as I got lost in my thoughts as always.“Sure, Dione, I’ll head inside now. Have a great night.” I flashed him a comforting smile as he held my hands and brought them to his lips, placing light kisses on them. He was so sweet, but I couldn’t understand what I was feeling anymore. How could one person be so confused in her life?As I made my way out of the car, I waved him goodbye and began walking towards the front doors, but I noticed a strange
