Chapter 81
“I’ll walk you up to your floor.” Jacob offered and I didn’t protest since I have a feeling he also want to see Jupiter before saying good bye.
We arrived back at the city nearly one in the morning. He’s been really nice to me during our trip and he indulged me in his little backstory about Jupiter and their crazy escapades back in college. I was so entertained listening to him. I had a good and fun time learning more things about Jupiter.
We strutted the building’s lobby and headed towards the elevator. It’s headed back to the ground floor so I didn’t bother pressing on the button. I just waited for the door to open up and unload its current passenger. Jacob was silent behind me. I could feel a few stares being thrown our way and I feel like people had a few reservations about me after Tatiana’s scandalous outburst.
Others believe I’m really seeing Jace in a different wa
Chapter 82(Remains on the female lead’s point of view)All of my stuffs fit in three luggage so I didn’t have to go back and forth in Jupiter’s condominium. One car ride to the mansion and everything else is settled.Jupiter helped me bring the bags to my room upstairs which is now fully furnished and decorated. Lydia and the other house helpers helped in beautifying my bedroom. I owe everything to them for keeping the whole place safe and homey so I decided to give them an early Christmas bonus.“Venus mentioned to me that you can paint,” Jupiter said as we glided down the stairs after I toured him on the second floor. The demons’ former rooms were in current renovation ‘cause I don’t want a single trace of them in this house.Pickle purred in my arms and I giggled before kissing her on the head. I missed her a lot! We’re almost a week apart.“Yep! But

The more I am learning about Juno's life, the more that I am liking and admiring her more because of her strength and talent.Venus told me about the beautiful paintings Juno had painted when she accompanied the latter to her house a few days ago. Indeed, they were beautiful. I can't stop looking at them as the urge in me grew bigger, wanting to own them... together with the artist that painted them, too.We'll get there sooner... I just have to fix a few things for the meantime so I can truly enjoy my dinner date with her tonight.When Juno fell asleep on my shoulder that Saturday night, I brought her to her room and even stole a shallow kiss on her lips. I'm already too tired, but I can't go to bed and rest just yet unless I finish the mission that got halted earlier.I gulped hard and shut my eyes tightly 'cause the soft mattress looked inviting and I just want to dive beside h
Last night was truly one of the most amazing and happiest nights of my life. Jupiter confessed and returned back my feelings… after so many years. We slept together and cuddled up under the thick comforter of my bed. We slept so late that we woke up the next morning with the sun already scorching hard outside.Jupiter decided we take a half day at the office today. I agreed since it’s already too late for us to rush in the company. There’s no heavy work left in the table too, so I guess it’s pretty safe to be tardy today.I smiled cutely at Jupiter after sipping on my orange juice. We were at the dining and eating our late breakfast which he personally cooked. I was seated on the host chair while he’s enjoying the food on my right side. He kept on refilling my drink and putting more food on my plate.I rolled my eyes and glared at him jokingly. “How am I gonna finish eating if you’re gonna keep doing that?
(Remains on the female lead’s point of view)The great Jupiter was nowhere inside his office when I arrived at the company. I grunted in irritation as I practically punch my fingers on the keyboard while answering to some clients’ inquiries. Where the hell is that guy?! Based on his schedule today, he doesn’t have any outdoor meeting. What could possibly be keeping him busy at this time of the day?I leaned back on my seat and sighed out. “This is so clingy of you, Juno Larissa. Get a grip, please.” I silently admonished myself while glaring at the computer screen.Minutes later, Venus barged inside my office, squealing loudly, while carrying a box of cake in her hand. I immediately knew it was her specialty… carrot cake.“Juno, darling! Tell me all the deets! What happened after your dinner? Oh my gosh!” She looked extremely excited while taking a seat in front of me. She then dropped the box
Twelve-ten.I slammed the door close after hopping inside my car to finally pick up Juno in their house. We had a blissful evening last night… which extended up until the morning. It’s a relief that no works are piling up so we’re free to take a half-day at the office right now.I was singing my lungs out and grinning from ear to ear while driving my way to her. I couldn’t believe this is possible! All along, I thought I’d only feel attraction to guys. I was never attracted to girls so I didn’t think I would ever find myself having a girlfriend!I hummed happily as my car entered the subdivision gate where Juno lives. But just when I was about to reach her house, my phone lit up because of my father’s call. I slightly slowed down as I plugged in my earphone.“Hey, Dad? What can I do for you?” I beamed, smiling widely as I sped up on the road. I’m so excited to see Juno, even though we were just
JUPITER’S point of viewI needed to breathe. I needed a quick escape to calm my head from all these mess. I glanced at the hospital hallway one last time before pushing to my feet and heading outside to my car. Before that, I made sure to leave a few of our men to guide the victims and look after them.I tried to call Juno but she isn’t picking up. She must be pissed because of my negligence to inform her that I couldn’t pick her up earlier. I’m sure she’d be saddened by this news…Few minutes later, I got in the company and found Juno and my sister inside her office. I scrunched my face in disgust when I saw the box of cake on top of her table. That damn carrot cake! I could puke right now!Juno rushed into me and slightly pulled my hair. I chuckled lightly. The stress I was feeling earlier is slowly soaring down.I was suppressing my smile as I watch her comb my hair and fix my suit. I would love to make this a daily routine with her. I feel pampered
JUPITER'S point of view"Dad."My father exhaled deeply as he marched towards his table. He massaged the sides of his forehead after sitting down on his chair and throwing me a stressed look.I waited for half an hour inside his office until the meeting was done. It must've been so serious since I don't remember we've had a meeting that long before.I texted Juno that it'll take me longer to get home so she must go ahead and eat first. I was disappointed 'cause I really want to eat meal with her tonight. But of course, we have a huge problem in our plate right now so that can wait. We can always find time to do that some other days."So far, we've had eighteen clients requesting to cancel services from us. Five of them are quite a big loss," he informed me and I leaned back on my seat in utter disappointment."Please tell me the Alonzo deal are not part of them, Dad."My father smiled weakly and relief rushed i
