Jasmine’s POV

I didn’t want to do this. I really didn’t.

Standing in front of the mirror, I stared at my reflection. My hair was done. My face was painted with soft makeup. I wore the dress Blake had picked out for me a week ago. It was black. I was happy when he handed me the bag but I didn't show it. It was a backless, tight gown and it clung to every part of my body. I looked beautiful, yes. But inside, I felt cold. I didn’t want to go to this stupid party. I didn’t want to pretend to be in love with a devil. Not after everything Blake did. Not after the rain.

I still remembered that night. The sound of the rain pouring. The way my body had shaken in fright, the way my heart had raced, and Blake...letting me out of the car like he didn't care. Like he hadn't seen what it was doing to me. He used it against me. He did it on purpose. And now, I had to smile and hold his hand in front of rich strangers?

I had called Julia in the morning after I got to work, and told her about what Bla

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 91

    Blake’s POVMy phone rang in the evening while I was staring at the ceiling of my hotel room. I had been waiting all day for a sign, for something to tell me that Jasmine was safe. When I saw the number on the screen, my heart almost stopped. It was the number of the phone I gave to the maid.I jumped to my feet so fast that the chair behind me fell. My chest was tight as I answered.“Hello?” I said, my voice sharp.“Sir,” the woman’s voice whispered. She sounded scared. “I have the phone. I will meet you now.”“Where?” I asked quickly.“The same place you told me about before,” she said.“I’m on my way,” I replied, grabbing my keys and running out of the room.I drove like a mad man through the evening traffic. My hands gripped the wheel so hard they hurt. All I could think about was Jasmine. Did she manage to do it? Did she take the risk for me? For herself? For her child? My chest burned with hope and fear at the same time.When I reached the spot, I parked and jumped out. The woma

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 90

    Jasmine pov I sat on the edge of the bed, my heart pounding. My hands refused to stay still; they shook so much I had to hide them in my lap. The room was quiet, too quiet. I could hear the sound of my breath, and even that felt loud.The door creaked open. My maid stepped inside with her head bent low. She looked nervous, her eyes darting to the corners of the room before they landed on me. She closed the door quickly and walked toward me.“Madam,” she whispered, glancing over her shoulder. “He is in the study. I don’t have much time.”Her hand slid from under her apron, and I froze when I saw what she held. A phone.I looked at her, then at the phone, and back at her again. My lips parted, but no words came out.“Take it,” she whispered again. Her fingers trembled as if the phone burned her skin.“No,” I shook my head. “I… I can’t.” My voice cracked. “If he finds out—”“He won’t,” she cut me off quickly. “You have to trust me. This is from someone who cares about you.”“Who?” I whi

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 89

    Blake’s POVI stood at the usual spot, the one where Jasmine and I always met. It was late at night. The sky was dark, but the moon gave enough light to see the empty street. I had been waiting for almost an hour. Every time I heard footsteps or a shadow moved, I thought it was her.But no one came.I checked the time again and again but it kept on ticking without her appearance. Maybe she was not coming. Maybe something had happened. I pushed my hands inside my pockets and looked down the street again. Still nothing.“She’s not coming,” I whispered to myself. My voice sounded broken in the quiet night.I stayed a few more minutes. Hope kept me rooted there. But as time went on, the hope faded. My legs felt heavy and tired from standing in hours waiting for her. My heart hurt. I finally sighed and turned to leave.I had only taken a few steps when a sharp whistle cut through the silence.I froze. Slowly, I turned around.A woman stood a few feet away, her hands on her hips. Her eyes l

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 88

    Jasmine’s POVI walked back slowly, my steps light as if the ground could betray me. My heart was still racing. Blake’s face lingered in my mind, his eyes, his smile. For a moment, I wanted to turn back, run into his arms, and press my lips to his. But I stopped myself. No. Not now. Not here. I had to control it. If I went back, I might never return. His eyes had lit up when he saw the baby, when he held and cradled him in his arms, when his lips met with his cheeks. He didn't want to let go of the baby and I thought I'd have to plead with him to let go. I reached the back door and slipped inside like a thief. The house was quiet, too quiet, the kind that makes your skin prickle. I held my breath, listening. No sound. Good.I hurried to the bedroom to the crib and placed the baby in it. He was curled and sleeping peacefully, her tiny fist curled to her face. I didn't know what Blake did to him to make him keep quiet. He looked peaceful, and for a second, I smiled. I bent down and ki

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 87

    Blake’s POVI looked at her. My heart wanted to pull her close and never let her go, but her eyes told me something else. She looked scared. Tired. I swallowed hard and said softly, “So… you need more time?”She nodded. “Yes, Blake. Please… just give me time.”Time.Time. The word hit me like a punch. That word hurt like any other thing. I wanted her now. I wanted to hold her, to come with me, leave the blasted man behind, and never look back and take her far from him, make her mine again. But I also knew I couldn’t force her. I saw the fear in her voice and I knew forcing her would only push her away. And it was the last thing I wanted. I swallowed hard. “More time?” I asked slowly, just to make sure I heard right.“Yes,” she whispered again. Her fingers twisted together like she was nervous.I let out a slow breath. “Alright,” I said, even though it felt like cutting my own skin. “If that’s what you want… I’ll give you time.”She looked at me then, and for a moment, I saw it—the sam

  • A Deal With Mr.Remington   Chapter 86

    Jasmine pov I stood frozen, his words still ringing in my ears. Did he just say he had proof of us being together? I don't know if I should believe his words or just overlook it. But the look in his eyes says he was damn serious about what he just said. “I have evidence.” he repeated again loud and clear as if I didn't hear him the first time. My lips trembled. My heart thudded so hard I felt it in my throat. I shivered from the cold and from the weight of his words. “Evidence?” I whispered. My voice barely came out. “What… What do you mean by evidence ?”Blake didn’t blink. His jaw was tight, and his eyes burned like fire. I could see he wanted to prove to me he meant every one of his words. “You said we weren’t meant to be. You said maybe we weren’t happy. You said maybe the universe didn't want us together which is why we're standing here like strangers. But I’m telling you, that’s a lie. I can prove it that we're meant to be. And we've been together in the past.”“Blake…” My v
