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

A single touch of hands with Grant can easily make me lose focus. Get your head together - MUNA.MUNAI sat at my dressing table, staring at my reflection in front of me. I still couldn't believe it was my engagement party today.I was dressed in a scarlet red designer dress with a sweetheart neckline. It wasn't too tight, but hugged my curvy figure, perfectly. My long hair was packed in a beautiful high bun. I had insisted on doing my make-up myself, and I had to say I did a great job.The day Grant got me this dress was the first time he spoke to me since the night we argued after dinner with his parents. In his exact words, "the dress was made for me. It was something he could hardly wait to see on me."Asides from today being our engagement day, it was also Grant's birthday.

"You don't have to sound that way, darling Jessie. All I want is for us to meet face to face, you see I heard something about what happened between us and I think it would be best if we talked about it," The voice said."Alright, where should I meet you?" Jessie asked, masking her shock."At the café next to Tasty Magazine.

JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
Jessie took out her phone when she got to her room to pack her things. She phoned Chanel who answered after two rings."What is it?" Chanel whispered in a low tone, which was very unusual of her."Are you alright?" Jessie had to ask. "Yes, I am. I need you to say whatever you want quickly, I'm in the middle of something," she whispered over the phone.Chanel was always bubbly and her low tone was just proof of the fact that something was wrong."I just wanted to tell you that Chase, the twins and I would be traveling to Rio De Janeiro tomorrow. He has business to do there and wants to use the opportunity to take the kids out for a change," Jessie said."That's awesome. Have you told Lenore about this, though?" "Not yet. Are you sure you're alright? Have you gone home? I hope it's not Lenore who's keeping you at the office till now," Jessie frowned."I'm in my flat. It's just... You know what? Forget it, I'll let you know what's up later. Enjoy your trip, okay?" Chanel said, trying t
JESSIE'S CHASE CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
CHASE'S POVI was on the phone with Bianca, my personal secretary when I felt a pair of hands cover my eyes from behind me.I instantly knew who they belonged to. The rose-scented perfume was something I was very sure belonged to Jessie.I cut the call and said, smiling, "I know it's you, Jessica.""How did you know it was me?" Jessie asked, marvelled at my correct prediction."Which other female could have soft hands like mine? Any of the maids or Octavia?""What do you mean?" I asked leading her to sit on my lap."I wouldn't know, maybe Mary or some woman from your past," Jessie said suggestively while caressing my cheek.I laughed at her obvious method of asking if I was being faithful. So she was worried that I could still be with some other woman besides her?"As much as I have a bad reputation of dating several women in the past, I've never been into two-timing. Mary is just the housekeeper and there's no other woman in my life. I'd admit that I was in a casual fling with a runw
