Asphalt POVI Drummed my fingers on my desk as I pondered on what happened last night at the hotel. The way Jazz had carried those kids away and how they resembled me in a way disturbed me.Last night I had tried to trace possible dots that Jazz was jasmine but no matter how many times I thought of it, there was no way for me to prove that she was the one.And if truly she was the one, I had no idea of bringing her back not after I married her sister.I remembered that night vividly, after Jasmine had delivered. It felt surreal that I had finally become a father but after she went missing, my joy became a nightmare.There was no night I didn't think of her and the child. And the more I pondered on them, I felt disgusted with myself. I was no different from my mother at all. And it hurt me that I had behaved like her. Throwing away a blessing that was right in front of me because of my obsession and selfishness.A knock sounded on my door and I unlocked it Knowing that it was Gilbert.

Jasmine POV"No, don't do that. Please come down Emil. Yes, Mommy loves you," I scrambled around trying to get Emil to wear his uniform. The kid was just too energetic for me this morning.Arianna had left early to prepare for my next appointment. It was a CD signing for my fans today. She wanted to make sure that everything was under control and ready before the time.And that was why I was having this baby problem. Usually, Arianna helped me dress them up for school while I got ready for work. Not that I don't dress the kids but it was easy when Arianna was around."Emil come wear your shoes please. Mommy is running late. Emilia please get your brother's backpack," I took Emil's shoe from the rack chasing him as he giggled like a free born."I don't think Emil wants to go to school neither do I. That school is full of dumb kids. My brain and personality is too high for those bunch of hooligans. Do you know how annoyed I was to hear the teacher repeat the English alphabet over and ov

Janet POVI got up from my bed and rushed to find Asphalt after I saw the message on my phone. It was my birthday and he didn't cancel it after what I had done last time. He was really mad and I thought that he would call off my birthday party."Thank you honey," I ran into his study room pecking him on his cheeks. He was currently busy with his work, something I had come to hate.He prioritized work over everything else including me."Thank you so much for not canceling my birthday party. I thought I wouldn't have any this year after making you angry the other day. Thank you so much," I peppered his face with kisses but he gently pushed me away, wiping his face off.I felt insulted by his action but there was no way I was going to complain about it. I was under his mercy, one wrong word and all my credit cards would be canceled."You should thank the Adams daughter. Assuming she canceled our business proposal, I won't have considered celebrating your birthday. You should learn to be

Jasmine POVI came down from my black van on arriving at the set I was to have a photo shoot. Arianna had not accompanied me this time since she had an important matter to handle.I strode into the company, receiving greetings as I walked past Asphalt's employees. Today, Julie was to accompany me since she was my junior agent. Arianna had handed this over to her for today's shoot. On entering the photo room, Asphalt welcomes me with a hug. His hands gently ran down my back in a friendly gesture. I patted him back to return his embrace.It was funny how I acted immune to his touch. If it were before, I would have melted in his arms. "How was your night?," He asked as we broke our embrace."It was nice and yours?," I cheerfully asked."I had a great night thank you," he replied, sounding so tender unlike the Asphalt I knew in the past who was always hostile to anyone who came close to him. I guess Janet really changed him.My mood wasn't really elated today since Arianna was not accom

Janet POVAsphalt and I sat in the garden watching my kids chase after butterflies. As described, the garden was quiet and fascinating and peaceful. The flowers were arranged in a cubic form that gave a uniform look to it.I was enjoying the gentle breeze that caressed my face until Asphalt called my name," Jasmine," I paused looking forward to see if he was referring to the bluish flower in front of us."I know that you are Jasmine, Jazz, why did you lie to me all this while," he said looking at me."What do you mean?I'm not Jasmine. I don't know who you are referring to," I denied wanting to keep my identity secret.Right now, I was feeling a bit tense and uncomfortable. Asphalt knew who I was along but if I played a fool he might reconsider, right?."There is no use lying to me Jasmine," his tone changed to stern as he showed me an envelope. I took it from his hand and read its contents.It was a DNA test he had run on my kids. "You ran a DNA test on my kids?. You have no right to
