One Obsession --Two Redemption CHAPTER 44
CRYSTAL “Crystal,” Jaden said, standing up abruptly. The woman slid off his lap with a slow,mocking grin. His eyes widened in surprise,within seconds the shock faded, replaced by a calm, unreadable expression.How could he be calm in this situation? I had always suspected that my boss would have a girlfriend or probably a wife somewhere and now the display I saw just justified my suspicions.Tears stung my eyes as regret tore my heart. I should have stopped myself and not fallen in love with him. My eyes darted from the pretty lady to Jaden. I gripped the side of my skirt, trying to steady myself but my voice betrayed me.“Was this the reason you left me in Milan?” The words slipped from my mouth,searing as they left.His lips parted to speak but was interrupted by the lady. “Who’s she?” She demanded, narrowing her eyes.“She works for me,”Jaden said,his hands buried into his pocket as he stared at me coldly. “Excuse us Charlotte,”‘That’s what I am to him— a worker. I must have be

CRYSTAL “Hey…chill,” he said,his eyes softening. “You are getting worked up for no reason,”“Why are you here?” I asked again, impatiently.His hands left his pocket and rubbed his forehead, “Seriously? Do you have a problem with me? I have lost count of you asking me that same question since I got here,” he said, a mix of frustration and anger laced his voice.I arched an eyebrow. Does he even deserve to be angry? I should be the one angry. I was on the edge of yelling at him, saying all the speculation I had about him being the stalker but I held myself back. He would probably deny it if I do.“You haven't answered me,” I said, crossing my hands across my chest. Somehow I felt satisfied that I'm making him feel frustrated,it was nothing compared to how he drove fear in me when he stalked me.He let out a deep breath,staring at me for a moment then his face drew into a smirk again like he wasn't affected by attitude. “Your beauty when you are angry is intoxicating,”he said, lifting

CHAPTER 42CRYSTAL My eyes widened in shock as I stood up abruptly, creating a distance between Mr James and I. ‘What's he doing here? Or does he know that I came here?’Jaden's jaw twitched and his eyes grew cold. His hands were deep in his pocket as he stared at us,he didn't say a word and just walked away.My brow furrowed, “What just happened?” I said,my voice barely above whisper. James didn't say a word either,his lips tilted to the corner and I wondered what humored him. “Thank you for the offer once again,Mr James,” I said, turning to him. “Sorry I would have to decline,” James relaxed into his chair,hands resting on his table and he fixed his eyes on me, “It's such a pity that I couldn't have you work with me despite my appealing offer,” he said,with a raised brow.I just stared at him,not knowing what else to say. I mean he knows that I'm working with his business partner, right?. I was lost and didn't know what all this was about. “Thank you for having me around,” I said
One Obsession --Two Redemption CHAPTER 41
CRYSTAL My brows furrowed, ‘Why was he calling me at this time?’ my eyes darted at Jaden who now rested his head on the bed board, looking down at me with an expression I rarely see on him. Oh no! I don't want Jaden thinking I have something going on with his manager.I clicked the answer button, placing the phone to my ear, “Hello?”“Hey beautiful, I'm at your door,” he said from the other end of the phone.“What!” I exclaimed, feeling uncomfortable that Jaden heard him. I hesitated for a while and before I could reply, Jaden took the phone from my hand, tossing it on the marble floor,then turned my head to his as his lips landed on mine. Kissing me hungrily mixed with possessiveness.“Are you still there?” Drake's voice sounded from the speaker and then gradually faded as I began to melt under Jaden's control.Our lips parted slightly as the sound of our breath could be heard in the room. We locked eyes for a moment and I could see his eyes soften as his thumb brushed my cheeks.“
One Obsession --Two Redemption CHAPTER 40
CRYSTAL I fell backwards, surprised. His hands slipped around my waist, steading me before I could hit the ground. His eyes widened as my body collided with his. “Are you okay?”Jaden said,his voice low and calm.He was wearing a loose white shirt that clung tightly to his chest,paired with a black jogger pants that hung low on his hips. His hair was damp like he just got out of the shower, carrying with him the scent of soap and something musky that clung to him and was intoxicating , hard to ignore.My cheeks flushed because of the closeness and I was just in my towel. I blinked repeatedly, avoiding his piercing blue eyes. “I— I'm okay,” I said, disengaging from the hold.His eyes roamed my body like it hadn't seen it earlier in the day. While I just stood there, holding the hem of my towel so that it won't go loose,also clasping my thigh together because of the heat in my region.Why do my body have to react just by looking at him?We stood awkwardly as silence dragged on. His fin

CHAPTER 39CRYSTAL Jaden growled under his breath as he released his hold on me slowly. My breath etched. I hurriedly wore my trousers and adjusted my shirt properly. My hands hovered on the screen,not knowing if I should pick the call. An unknown number means it was the stalker calling.“Aren't you going to pick your call?”Jaden asked, fixing his gaze on me.“It's nothing important,” I said, pressing the snooze button despite the increase in my heart beat.“I'm heading out first,” he said,hands in his pocket as he exited the corner.My phone rang again. This has to stop,who the hell is this person exactly? Why me? I have to put an end to this. Furiously I picked the call, “Who are you exactly? Why are you bent on driving me scared? Why can't you just let me be? Or just reveal yourself and stop hiding like a coward,” I blew hot into the phone.“Hey…hey. Who's a coward? Wait,you didn't save my number?”Drake's voice boomed through the phone.I rolled my eyes. I shouldn't have bursted
