Jaxon's car pulled up to the club, which was still shut down. A horde of reporters swarmed the entrance, trying to get information about the accident. Loo was trying her best to dismiss them, but they refused to leave."Mr. Hearst is here!" one of the reporters shouted, spotting Jaxon's car.The reporters flocked to Jaxon's vehicle, surrounding it. The bodyguards rushed over, trying to clear a path."Space out, clear the area!" they instructed the reporters. "Give Mr. Hearst some room."Jaxon stepped out of the car, and the reporters bombarded him with questions."Who was the dancer who fell off the pole?" one asked."How is she doing?" another asked."Is she still alive?" a third reporter asked."Was it a freak accident or is there more to it?" a fourth reporter asked.Jaxon held up his hands, trying to calm the crowd. "We're fixing the stage and upgrading our equipment to prevent this from happening again. I urge you all to await the grand reopening of our club."A reporter asked, "
Jaxon's expression was grim. "I need to see Roxanne. I had a bad dream and I can't shake it off."Cynthia's expression softened. "Roxanne's fine, Jax. She's sleeping. But come in, you look like you've seen a ghost."Jaxon followed Cynthia inside, his eyes scanning the room frantically. "Where is she? I need to see her for myself."Cynthia led him to the guest room, where Roxanne was indeed fast asleep. Jaxon's eyes locked onto her, his chest heaving with relief."Thank God," he whispered. Cynthia put a hand on his arm. "What's going on, Jax? You're really scaring me."Jaxon's eyes never left Roxanne's face. "I had a dream, Cynthia. A dream that felt so real. She died, Cynthia. She f*cking died!"" Well, as you can see, she's alive and well. You need to stop worrying about her. She's a strong woman. She'll be fine. I can't believe you came by this time." " I'm sorry about that, Cyn." He said, his voice firm." It's alright. I'll ask one of the maids to prepare a room for you." Cynthi
Roxanne slowly opened her eyes, groggily taking in her surroundings. She was in a hospital room, and Jaxon was asleep in a chair next to her bed. She tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through her head and she winced."Hey, hey, easy does it," Jaxon said, waking up and rushing to her side. "You've got a concussion, remember?"Roxy nodded, trying to clear the fog from her mind. "What happened?"Jaxon filled her in on the accident at the club, and Roxy's eyes widened as she remembered. "Oh no, I was so stupid, I shouldn't have gotten on the pole when I wasn't feeling up to it." she muttered.Jaxon smiled and took her hand. "You're just lucky to be alive. And I'm lucky to have you here. I thought I'd go crazy."The doctor came in with a nurse carrying a tray of medication. "Okay, Roxanne, time for your meds. And don't worry, I'm sure you'll be back to your frequent performances in no time," he said with a wink.Roxanne rolled her eyes, but couldn't help laughing. "You're a funny one,
The clubgoers were in a state of panic as they began to leave the club one after the other. The other workers were distressed, especially Freddy, who kept blaming himself for letting Roxanne get on the pole after she had said she wasn't feeling up to it."I can't believe this happened," Freddy said, his voice shaking. "She told me she wasn't feeling well, but I pushed her to do it anyway. Now look what's happened!"Patty tried to comfort him. "Freddy, it's not your fault. Accidents happen. We just have to hope she's okay."" This is obviously some freak accident, Freddy." Charlotte, another worker said.But Freddy was inconsolable. "I should have listened to her. I should have listened to her. Oh God, what have I done?"Jaxon's shirt was stained with blood from Roxanne. He looked like he was in shock, his eyes fixed on the ambulance as it drove away. Cynthia came running up to him, concern obvious on her face."Jaxon, what happened? I came as soon as I heard," she said, but Jaxon wasn
Roxanne spent the weekend with Vivienne and her roommates, having the time of her life. They laughed, joked, and shared stories, making her feel like part of the gang.Over lunch, Roxanne asked about their school life. "So, how's school going? Any challenging courses?"Vivienne replied, "We have a few tough ones, but overall, it's great. We're learning so much."One of the roommates, Sue, blushed. "I have a confession to make. I've been crushing on my lecturer, and I'm worried about it."The others burst out laughing. "Sue, you're so silly!" Vivienne teased.Roxanne grinned. "Don't worry, Sue. We've all been there. Well, maybe not with a lecturer, but you get the idea!"After lunch, they went bowling, and Roxanne showed off her impressive skills. Then, they took her to their lab, where they worked on projects, and Roxanne was fascinated by their passion for science.In the evening, they went to their favorite restaurant, where they devoured pepper wings and laughed some more.As they
Roxanne went shopping, in preparation for her visit to VSU. She got lots of things for Vivienne and her roommates. She knew they were four all together, but she hadn't met them before, so she felt the urge to make a good first impression. After packing a weekend bag and all the good stuff she bought, she headed for the airport in a taxi. Roxanne arrived at her sister's school in Virginia, excitement building up inside her. She had surprised Vivienne by not telling her she was coming, and she couldn't wait to see her sister's reaction. As she stepped out of the car, Vivienne's eyes widened in shock, and a huge smile spread across her face."Roxy! Hermana! Oh my gosh, I can't believe it's you!" Vivienne exclaimed, rushing to give her sister a big hug. Roxanne laughed, hugging her back."I wanted to surprise you, sis!" Roxanne said, grinning. "I couldn't wait to see you and meet your friends."Vivienne pulled back, looking at her with disbelief. "You never told me you were coming! I'm s
Loo stormed into Sentinel's house, her face red with anger. She approached Sentinel, who was seated at his large reading desk, looking calm and collected."You won't believe what happened at the club today!" Loo exclaimed. "Jaxon was all over Roxanne, just staring at her with this intensity. And then he had the nerve to shut me up so she could speak!"Sentinel looked up from his book, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Calm down, Loo. What's going on?"But Loo was beyond reason. "I can't calm down! That girl is stealing Jaxon away from me, right before my eyes. And he's just letting it happen!"Sentinel rolled his eyes. " Here we go again!" Sentinel leaned back in his chair and said, "Loo, you're not even sure this man loves you in anyway." But Loo was convinced otherwise. "No, no, you don't understand. She's ruining everything about our relationship, he loves me And guess what? he asked me to go on his business trip to Connecticut with him!"Sentinel chuckled and shook his head. "Somet
Roxanne slowly opened her eyes, groggily taking in her surroundings. Her room was bright, the sunlight streaming through the windows. She rubbed her eyes, trying to shake off the sleep. Her body felt heavy, her eyes burning from lack of sleep. She looked at the other side of the bed, finding it empty. She thought Jaxon had left, and she felt a pang of disappointment.She got out of bed, her legs feeling heavy like lead. She stumbled to the bathroom, washing her face and brushing her teeth. As she got out of her room, the smell of fried eggs and bacon hit her nose. She followed the scent to her tiny kitchen, where Jaxon was standing, a spatula in his hand."You're cooking?" she asked, surprised. "I thought you didn't know how to.""Good morning to you too, Princess," Jaxon said, smiling."How can you be awake after staying awake for most of the night?" Roxanne asked, yawning."I don't sleep much in the mornings," Jaxon replied."My eyes hurt from lack of sleep," Roxanne complained."A
Sentinel entered the club, his eyes scanning the room for Loo. He spotted her across the room, her eyes locked onto his. She hurried towards him, her long legs striding purposefully in her high heels."Sentinel," she said, her voice low and urgent. "What's going on?""Hey, Loo," Sentinel replied, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Let's get a drink first, and then I'll tell you all about it."Loo's eyes narrowed, but she led him to a booth anyway. "What is it, Sentinel? You're being very mysterious."" Come on, Loo, how about a drink?" Sentinel's eyes twinkled. Loo, getting impatient, called one of the girls wearing bikini and carrying drink trays to the VIP section. The girl gave Sentinel a glass of drink. "Now, that's more like it." Sentinel said as he took the drink for the girl and watched her leave. "What's the news, Sentinel? I really am busy tonight." Loo was beginning to get snappy.Sentinel laughed, taking a sip of his drink. "Oh, it's juicy, Loo. You'll want to hear this
