Jasmine's POV“ I can't believe you're not pregnant yet!” He banged his clenched fist against the dining table as the array of chairs separated us. I for once was glad that I was sitting at the other end, it was technically my life saver right now. He threw the test results aside in anger.“ There's no need to be mad, it's just been a few months since we got married. It's not abnormal for concep...,” I mumbled in fear.“ Mrs Margaret, from now on make sure Jasmine doesn't eat any junk food. Feed her with mostly fruits and vegetables and don't forget to make her drink low-fat butternut squash bisque,” he instructed.“ You can't do that to...,” I sealed my lips at his intense glare. He knew I loved junk food and now he was going to take everything out. Warm tears built up in my ears with some escaping and flowing freely down my cheeks.“ Sir, don't you think you're being too... extreme?” Mrs. Margaret spoke up for me even though she filtered and weighed her words. Asphalt treated Mrs Ma

Jasmine's POVThere seemed to be a glimpse of hope, Asphalt has been treating me better lately. Not that his level of care changed but he was more responsive to my moods and attitudes and he's been careful around me. Even though, I knew that it was all because of my pregnancy, it still felt good whenever he caressed my now bulging belly. I was nearly due and everyday seemed to get tougher by the moment since I wasn't carrying one but two.I flipped through the baby guide book he had bought for me as I listened to slow, graceful music such that the babies would love but now I had started tovett hungry. My cravings had started again like I was still in my first trimester.Getting up, I stood in front of the full mirror in the room, analysing the bulge of my stomach. Sometimes I get amazed at how much my stomach has stretched due to pregnancy. As I walked down the stairs, I realized that I had forgotten something very important. I wasn't just nearly due but my due date was today. As it f

Janet POVThe next day, I called my friends over using Asphalt's private jet. We flew down to a private island he owned.I had decided to have my bridal shower party at the vacation house on the island. Now, we were in one of his yachts having a chilled coconut milk while we basked in the early morning sun.“Your husband must really love you to allow you to do this. After what happened yesterday," Vivian said, turning her back for the maid to oil her skin.“Have you forgotten that Our Jannie is an irresistible beauty. I'm sure he regretted what he had done," Carissa bragged like she was the one marrying my husband.“She is right. You guys needed to see how he came to my parents house and went down on his knees begging for my forgiveness. Well, as proud as I'm, I made him suffer for a while before I accepted his apology. He even took me to a renowned fashion designer to have my wedding dress customized," I bragged.I could see the tinge of jealousy in their eyes after I had mentioned w

Jasmine POVIt was finally Friday morning, the day that I was going to meet Asphalt face to face for the contract meeting.I walked into his company; L cosmetic. I had not been here before because he never let on but now that I was in it, it was not much of a big deal.As usual everyone whispered as I walked through the company's lobby with Arianna by my side and two of my secretaries and bodyguards.The main reason Asphalt was asking for my presence was for me to be the brand model of his company. I had done a lot of adverts for companies and most of them flourished once I appeared on the screen.I had a large fan base and my fans did whatever I acknowledged making me the biggest and fastest influencer in the industry.Plus, my beauty was extraordinary. I wasn't being proud but that was the truth. Money had changed me completely in a good way."Good morning Ms Jazz, follow me this way. The president is already inside waiting," his secretary Gilbert said, leading me to the meeting roo

Jasmine's POV"Wake up sleepy head," Arianna pulled my room curtains open letting the sun flash on my face."Ugh, not again," I groaned, slowly rolling out of my bed. Today was my first photo shoot for L cosmetics. They were launching a new kit of makeup and I was going to model for each of them."Can I just skip the day?. That man doesn't deserve my service anyway," I reluctantly laid on the floor."No, you can't. You started it already so you have to finish it up. I have got your outfit for the day out. So go and have a shower and come down for breakfast," Arianna turned to her devilishly manager. We had finally packed into our new apartment. It was located in surview estate. The location had a spectacular view of the lake with the estate. I felt so thankful that Arianna had bought this part of the estate. It was so calm in the morning and cool in the evening.I finally got the strength to get up. Went into the bathroom and took out my favorite toothpaste product; cleanse. I had on
