JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER TWELVE
"I believe I asked you a question, one to which I require a reasonable answer. Chase has never mentioned having a girlfriend, not since Stella," The lady said with a disapproving look.She looked quite familiar to Jessie and had a model-like face. Jessie wondered if she was a face model whom she had seen in a magazine before. It finally clicked and she remembered that the woman was named the third most beautiful face the previous year.What was her name again, Jessie tried to recall. Was it Veronica or Vienna?"I asked you a question. Don't just stand there looking at me or I'll call the security guards to throw you out!" The woman yelled."Who is Stella?" Jessie queried."How could you not know her? If you are his so-called girlfriend, then you should know who Stella is." "Jessie! Jessie! Vanessa, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be on a business trip?" Chase asked as he walked into the room."I cancelled it. Chase, darling this imposter claims to be your girlfriend. Is that t
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Jessie woke up in an unfamiliar room decorated only in pink. Her head hurt a lot and she felt like she banged her head against something.What happened last night? The party, kissing Chase, meeting his mum, talking to Crystal and finally falling into the pool flashed back in her memory.As she sat up trying to remember what happened exactly, she realized that she was dressed in a big white shirt and pyjama bottoms. Looking around the room, she discovered that she was still in Chase's house and he was sleeping on the sofa across the bed where she lay.She picked up her phone which was on the dresser close to the bed and checked the time. It was 9 am. "Could she have been asleep since last night? What exactly happened?" She wondered. Her phone rang, rescuing her from the battle she was having with her memory.It was Lenore and immediately Jessie picked up the phone, she didn't even bother to greet, but asked, "What are you up to, Jessie? Have you not got the information from Chase? I ha
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Throughout the entire ride to Rowland Galleries, Muna ignored Grant who sat beside her, frowning for some reason unknown to her.It was a huge surprise to see him hop out of the car as soon as they arrived in front of the gallery.He quickly moved around to her side and pulled the car door open for her. She frowned, wondering why he had to do that, but soon realised his reason when she saw a curator from the gallery watching them.Placing his hand at her lower back, he took her purse in his hand before kissing her briefly on the lips.Muna stared at him, totally confused by the sudden kiss and big smile plastered on Grant's face. His dimples were on display, making him look even more handsome.He had gone for a charcoal grey suit which seemed as though it was sewn right on his body. He looked every bit like an intimidating billionaire which he was.Seeing how confused she looked, he explained, "It's time to put your acting skills to use. This is our first official public outing as a c
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER FIFTEEN
CHANEL'S POVI got into my car and drove to the address Jessie sent to me. It was her step-sister's birthday party today and she had to be there.I was quite surprised that she got invited, Jessie was from a wealthy family, but she didn't feel that way. I've known her for four years, ever since we both started working at Tasty.Jessie had told me of how much she's been struggling to make it up to her mother and stepfather. As a child she wasn't very intelligent and that was always an issue for her parents since their other children were very intelligent.Jessie had low self esteem as a teenager and struggled academically. Her mother kept pushing her towards modelling since Jessie wasn't good at studies and when she finally quit modelling as a teenager, her mother stopped being on her side. She wanted a flawless daughter who'd be slim and ready to do as her mother pleased. Jessie started developing curves and could no longer model for her step-father's clothing line and was therefore
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Having Grant attend to my zipper might come with some strange emotions, but that won't keep me from remembering that he's my nemesis-Muna"Oh my God! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to just barge in on you like that," Grant apologised while feasting his eyes on Muna's body."Sorry for yourself. I'm sure you walked in on purpose. How did you know I wasn't properly dressed?" She queried, tugging the jumpsuit into place and trying to draw up the zipper."Let me help with that," Grant suggested, unsure of why he even wanted to help in the first place.Muna did her best to ignore the tingling sensation she was feeling due to Grant's fingers on her back."Can you just zip up the damn thing and leave me alone?" She frowned, trying to sound annoyed, but the words came out sounding breathless instead.It took a whole lot of self control from Grant to pull his eyes away from the designer bra that she had on as he zipped up the jumpsuit.Finally decent, Muna sat on her chair behind her desk and said
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
"Julian, what are you doing here? This isn't the bathroom," Camille said, walking up to where Julian stood beside Janet."I'm sorry about how this looks. It's just that while looking for the bathroom, a maid ran into me, spilling a drink on my shirt. Janet was descending the stairs when it happened, is he offered to help me clean up and that's why I'm here," Julian explained with a charming smile that even Camille couldn't help but notice."Mum, don't make too much out of this. He's such a funny guy. While trying to get out the stain, he kept making silly jokes," Janet laughed."Is that so? I'm glad that he makes you laugh, my dear. You deserve it all, you've been working so hard my dear," Camille said caressing Jessie's face.'Is your shirt alright now?" Jessie asked Julian."Yes, it is," Julian smiled.A maid came into the room and said, timidly, "Your guests have started arriving Madame Janet.""Really? Let's go downstairs now. The party has officially started," Janet said, eyeing
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Being in a fake relationship with Muna might come with luxuries such as access to her amazing lips- Grant.GRANT"This is for you, Muna," I said, handing her the flowers as we approached the front door of my parent's mansion.She looked a bit surprised as she accepted the flowers from me. Her beautiful face contorted into a frown and she asked, "how did you know I liked pink tulips the most? You've been sending roses to my office all these time. Why tulips all of a sudden?""I know a lot about you that you wouldn't believe. Let's go in, Mum must be dying to see you," I replied with the smirk I know she hated seeing on my face."I don't know why I'm nervous all of a sudden. I have a bad feeling about deceiving your family and best friend like this," she said, licking her lower lip. It was something she always did whenever she got nervous. I watched her with fascination, I mean it wasn't fair for someone who hurt me like that to look so good.Muna was drop dead gorgeous and it's not li
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER NINETEEN
Jessie came out of the closet, fresh from the shower in a loose black dress that Chanel brought from her apartment for her."So Chanel, tell me how your day with the hot Nathan and his cute kids went. Did you find out anything?" Jessie asked in French with a teasing smile before joining Chanel on the bed."Nathan is such an amazing person. Mark and Claire have no filter you know? They made it so easy for me to know that Nathan isn't dating anyone at the moment. They are very cheerful, it's hard to believe that they don't have a mum," Chanel answered back in French, twirling her hair."I guess Nathan is a good father. He'll definitely require a mother for his kids and you my dear are as single as the word single, itself. So did you shoot your shot?""Not yet, I like Nathan, but asides from him being a famous actor and a father to those beautiful children, I don't know much else about him. He was mostly quiet and all my attempts to ask him about Chase's past was to no avail. I noticed s
