JASMIN£ I envisioned the plot would cause a disaster, I just didn't know it would turn out this disastrous. The news I’d been seeing since morning were giving me goosebumps, yet Chloe seemed ecstatic by all of it. Her hands were on my shoulder, tugging excitedly, “Girl, you completely finished him! I cant believe it, the scores are finally even…” I forced a smile, my insides the absolute opposite. She snapped her fingers, with a huge smile, “this calls for a big celebration…” She disappeared into the kitchen to grab “the celebration” and suddenly I couldn't help the gut feeling in my stomach as I refocused on the news. “As of two hours ago, the economical analysts have informed us that Ace Jewellers have dropped from ten to eleven, A disappointing drop considering they used to be firm at the first position.” “Reporters say with the way their sales are depreciating and the amount of losses they are accumulating, it's very possible it could lead to a massive downgrade for them…”

JASMIN£ When I thought of how my day would end, I definitely didn't imagine myself being on an impromptu ride with my ex and his father, to wherever they were taking me, especially with my phone buzzing with constant calls from Chloe. God, we had a lot of things to talk about, and definitely not over the phone. I don't know when I'll get back, but I made a mental note to call her as soon as I get a chance alone. I remained silent as they conversed in business language, except anxiety set in as their conversations trailed towards the police investigation and my palms felt quite clammy. I couldn't help but wonder how they'd react if they were to find out, I was the one behind everything. Ace would probably hate me more, for sure… Soon only the streetlight occasionally illuminated the dark car, as we were finally riding in silence. Their conversation had ended, probably. I glanced back, to see Chief had his head leaned back, probably taking a quick nap. It had been a tiresome day,

JASMIN£ “Atleast put on a shirt.” I quipped, quite annoyed at how confident he was. He was laying on his back, and shifted his stare from his phone, with a cocky smile, at my remark, “Why? Is the sight disturbing baby? I promise it's nothing you haven't seen before, except now, it's actually bigger…” he teased, making me roll my eyes. I sighed as my eyes involuntarily roamed this room we were in once again. A modern bedroom setup with white furnishings, and cool ambience. There was a balcony that added the upscale touch to the room. Suddenly, I frowned, realizing there was only one very comfortable looking bed, and a double couch, that didn't look comfortable. But Ace was already on the bed…. I stalked to the foot of the bed, my hands rested on my waist, as I spoke determinedly. “I'm taking the bed. You'll sleep on the couch” I declared. He tsked, “Too bad, I called dibs first” “Theres no such thing as dibs. I'm the guest I should take the bed…” He heaved a tired sigh, bef

JASMIN£I didn't say a word, I had nothing to say and I didn't want to hear his explanation either…“There’s someone at the door…” I just spoke in an icy tone, avoiding his eyes.He just released a sigh, before going to open the door.I held my breath, even as he walked past me to the door. Palms feeling clammy, heart still pounding….God, I just kissed Ace!He pulled open the door and his angry voice rang out in the entire room.“What are you doing here?” he addressed the person at the other end of the door.Making me turn to the door as well.I was stunned as I took in our night guest…There, standing outside the open door was someone I least expected to see, in this place, in this hour…“Armani.. “ I gasped.He exchanged a heated glare with Ace, who seemed quite shocked and irritated, before his eyes cut to me for a mini second.“Someone told me you have something of mine…” he hissed at Ace.“What are you doing here?” I walked closer to them.“And what might that be?” Ace piqued i

ACEWhen I imagined how my ex would reenter my life, I expected she’d walk up to me, and give me a hot slap across the cheek, hurl insults at me, and hate me for everything I did to her.But Jasmine …She didn't do that…Yet a part of me expected her to do so.I don't know why I'm so sure she’s Layde, even when she has constantly denied it…Maybe it's the little hints I've been getting, the way her body reacts to my touch or the way the kiss we shared tonight felt so right….The kiss was still messing with my mind, I didn't even get to have enough of her….I really wanted to kiss her again, until Armani the loser showed up on my doorstep…I sighed…She had been in the bathroom for over an hour now.Was it the call? Did it scare her away?It was a little stunt I'd planned with Tyler, hoping to get a much needed reaction from her….She had a weird reaction, nothing too intense…Not what I was expecting….But it seemed she was bent on not hinting me, her true identity…..I breathed out a

JASMIN£I squinted my eyes open, frowning at the unfamiliar ceiling, and in seconds, last night’s events rushed back to my brain, leaving me stunned.I don't know how I found myself on the bed….Was it Ace?Did he carry me here? It must have been him.Gosh, my reaction during the call last night must have said something to him…I don't know how long I can play this game of fake identity anymore, especially with Ace.He's getting closer to discovering the truth and my lies won't keep saving me for long..A groan slipped through me at the thought,as a knock resounded on the door, making me drag myself out of the bed, and move to it.A servant stood there holding fresh clothes.which she handed to me, saying it was from Ace.“Boss got you a new dress, he hopes you’ll like it, and Nana asked me to tell you food will be ready in an hour…”I nodded, as I shut the door.I was relieved by the dress honestly, cause I had nothing to wear.It was a short blue gown, his favourite colour, I rolled

JASMIN£I didn't know what else to do but stare.Stare into his honey eyes, frowning into mine….And I gulped again…Gosh why did I have such a big mouth?After how blissful yesterday was for us, he must think I'm double faced….I stared on, even as he finally took steps, his demeanor had shifted to uncomfortable as his lips were pressed into a thin line, and he avoided my eyes, I noticed.“I…ah I hope I didn't come at the wrong time…”He began awkwardly, and Mum quickly went to him.“Oh my, please pardon my daughter. She tends to say things without thought.”He gave a brief nod, “it's fine…”In the next second, Veronica was all over him, pulling him into a hug, pressing a kiss to his lips..I shifted my gaze at that….Something uneasy panged in my chest at the sight“Baby, I missed you so much. Gosh you don't know… “ she pressed kisses to his cheek.And for some reason, his hand resting around her waist, welcoming her touch also annoyed me….I stood awkwardly, with arms folded to mys

JASMIN£“You're in my path…” Ace simply stated, his voice dripping with irritation as he regarded Armani. But Armani stood his daring stance, head slightly cocked, “I remember asking you a question. Why are you here to see Jasmine, by this time and with fucking roses?” “I could ask you the same, you know, but then I figured, maybe , since you always hover around her, perhaps you signed up to be her guard…” he raised a mocking brow.“For the last time, why are you here Ace?” Armani asked, ignoring his spiteful words.For seconds, Ace watched him with a contemptuous stare, before eventually sighing and reaching into his breast pocket for his phone, I frowned, watching them, the frown deepened into confusion even as I saw Ace dial a number.“Father?” Ace’s spoke, referring to the receiver.From where I stood, I heard Chief Chanel's voice come from the other end, in an acknowledging reply.Ace passed a twisted smirk to Armani, before he spoke, “I'm here with Jasmine…”“Oh, have you ha
