After Jasmine finished talking with her mother, she proceeded to her room to take a shower. As she walked towards the room, she realized that she had no clothes to change into.However, on getting to her room she saw that her luggage and her stuff had already been moved to the mansion.She smiled to herself as she realized that it was her mother's doing. What would she do without her? 'Thank you mom,' she muttered to herself as she sorted out her luggage.She quickly proceeded into the shower to have a bath as she k didn't think that justin would cut her some slack especially after all that happened.She finished getting ready twenty minutes later and quickly left the house. Just as she was thinking of how to get to the office from the mansion, she saw a guard waiting for her outside.Good morning ma'am, the guard greeted "Good morning Jasmine replied with a smile on her face, trying to be as polite as possible."My name is Cole and I will be your personal guard from now on," he inf
Jasmine glanced at the table clock and saw that it was already twelve o'clock. Her father's driver would arrive to pick her up in fifteen minutes and she still hadn't told Justin that she would be going out.The truth was that she was too embarrassed to face him as she didn't want what happened earlier to repeat itself.She would have to face him sooner or later if she wanted to leave for lunch.Taking a deep breath, she stood up from her seat and knocked on his door."Come in," she heard him say. She slowly opened the door and walked into his office.Justin was sitting on the sofa in his office. His legs were crossed and he was reading some files.'God, he looks like a model!' Jasmine thought to herself. And as she did, she mentally scolded herself for having such thoughts about Justin."Do you have something to say to me or are you going to keep standing in my office?" Justin said sharply."Well sir, can I go out for lunch?" Jasmine asked.Justin put the files that were on his lap o
Jasmine, even though she knew that her father had an ulterior motive for calling her, was still astonished by his words. How could a man like Lucious Baxter suddenly wake up and change? And what made his supposed change even funnier was the fact that the change came right after the news of her and Justin's ‘relationship’ came out.“Well in that case, Mr Baxter, you’re the biggest fool I have ever met,” Jasmine couldn’t help but say.“Jasmine!” Lucious yelled, his face read with anger. He was this close to grabbing her by the neck and strangling her.Jasmine relaxed back on her chair and stared at Lucious in the face. There was a time seeing him angry terrified her but not anymore. Apart from the fact that she had grown up, he was not as terrifying as Justin Gerano and his entire family.Lucious on realizing that he had let his emotions take control of him, quickly calmed down. “Jasmine, you shouldn’t speak like that to your father,” he scolded.“And fathers aren’t supposed to abando
"Okay sis I'll tell her, "Justin said to Isabella and hung up. He looked at Jasmine who was sitting in the floor lost in her thoughts without any emotions on his face."My sister said she will be here to see you in thirty minutes so get ready," he told Jasmine before getting up from his seat and leaving the conference room.After he left the conference room he busted out into laughter one he had been holding in ever since he saw Jasmine terrified face.It felt nice to have the Mafia Queen as his sister as she unknowingly helped him to terrify Jasmine. He would have never thought that troubling someone would give him such immense satisfaction. Knowing his sister she had probably left whatever photoshoot she was having at that time to go and get a pair of new heels for Jasmine but the latter didn't know that as she thought Isabella would come there and capture her back to the underworld.There was no harm in letting Jasmine ponder upon her thoughts and revel in her fear.Inside the con
"I'll do it, I'll take the shoes ma'am," Jasmine said. She had just got out of a sticky situation. The last thing she needed was getting right back into it because of her stubbornness.If Isabella wasn't bothered about spending so much money on her then she shouldn't be bothered about keeping Isabella's money. Isabella smiled in satisfaction upon hearing Jasmine agree to her demands. for "that's good I like you, you are a smart person," she praised.She dipped her hand in a bag and brought out a card. "Here if you ever need anything then don't hesitate to call me," she said.Jasmine knew better than to argue and so she silently collected the card from Isabella. "I will, thank you ma'am.""Please don't call me ma'am, it makes me feel like an old woman instead of a twenty eight year old. Just call me by my name, Isabella."Before Jasmine could say anything to Isabella's request, the door to Justin's private room opened and Justin and his mother walked out. She thanked them inwardly f
“Miss Baxter, we are here,” Justin informed her, snapping her out of her thoughts.Jasmine looked outside the window and indeed saw that they had arrived. She opened the door and turned to Justin. “Thank you sir for saving me today.” and she meant it. She didn’t want to imagine what would have happened to her if Justin hadn’t been there to save her.Irregardless of their differences, he still saved her and for that, she would always remain in his debt. “You’re welcome Miss Baxter,” Justin replied. His phone suddenly beeped at that moment. He brought it out from his pocket and checked who had messaged him. The message was from Cole and upon reading the contents, a slight frown appeared on his face. “You should go and get some rest. We have a busy day ahead of us tomorrow,” he said. Jasmine smiled and got out of the car. She made sure she watched him drive away before heading up to her mother’s apartment.As she walked up, she could feel the judgemental stares of the residents. Didn
It wasn't until an hour later before Isabella finished with the woman. By the time she was done with her, the woman had lost all her fingers as well as been told on her leg and she had slowly bled to death.Clark handed her a towel and she cleaned her blood stained hands it with it. "God, it's been ages since I last tortured someone. It feels so good to do this again," she commented."Your husband is the head of the underworld and you're telling me that it's been ages since you tortured someone?" Justin raised an eyebrow.Just because he is the king of the underworld doesn't mean he has allows me to do such things Isabella answered as she eyed her husband."Okay, now that it's done, can we go home?" Clark asked quickly, changing the subject. "I just got back from a trip outside the country and I am tired."Justin nodded in agreement. it's late Isabella, you should head home. ""You should also head home and get some rest," Isabella said and kissed Justin's cheek. "Goodnight," she bid h
Justin looked at his watch and saw that it was time for he and Jasmine to leave for the inspections on their sites.He stood up with the intention of leaving. However, his office door opened before he could open it. "What are you doing here?!" Justin snapped when he saw who it was. Of course there were a limited number of people that would enter his office without knocking."What happened at the base last night?" Austin asked in a serious tone. His voice and facial expression showed that he wasn't in the mood for jokes.What do you mean? Justin asked, feigning innocence. However Austin was really in a serious mood as he did not have time for his brother's dumb game."Who did you kill last night?" Austin asked. "How do you know I killed somebody?" Justin asked, refusing to give in to Austin."You weren't at home last night when I came. You didn't return home till twelve in the midnight. I went to the base this morning and I saw two bodies being transported to Clark's base." Austin p
