All Chapters of A Deal With Mr.Remington: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Jasmine Sitting at the edge of the table, my hands folded underneath the table on my thighs, I kept touching the glass of wine in front of me even though I didn't want to drink from it yet. The waiter insisted and filled it with water which I had requested but I hadn't touched it yet. I was waiting for someone. After the press conference, the book he painstakingly went through to get for me and the scrapbook – I decided he got my heart already. I remembered picking my phone and calling Blake and told him I'd fix a time when we'd talk. And it was today. I picked the place carefully. A quiet hotel restaurant, elegant and private. There won't be any reporters hanging around, there won't be any noise from the people, no one would question me or take photos. I wore the blue dress he bought for me a week after the marriage. I never wore it then. I kept it hidden. But now I am wearing it. It still smelled faintly of him since I'd dropped it in his closet but took it when he told me to leav

Jasmine’s POVI sat by the window, holding a cup of cold juice with both hands. The sun was warm on my skin. The smell of fresh paint from the wall made me smile. It was the scent of home. My home. Our home.I was back in the penthouse.After everything that happened, I finally said yes. I moved back two days ago. Blake had arrived earlier than me, and he helped me with my stuff like a man on a mission. He carried boxes, arranged things, and even wiped my favorite shelf twice like it was some glass statue. He then went as far as arranging the new books he got for me and promised he'd find time to read them with me. I thought he was kidding me until he joined me on the sofa, straddled me and we read a hundred pages together while sitting. I'd kiss him so wild that we're close to making love but he told me we weren't ready for it.On our way home that day, he stopped at a small store and bought me ice cream, vanilla and strawberry – my favorite flavor. I hadn't requested it, he just par

Chapter 45New Heights, New ThreatsJasmine’s POV Blake and I rushed into my company that night. It was already dark outside, and the security guard opened the main door when he saw us. I didn’t even wait for him to greet us. I just walked straight in with my heels tapping hard on the tiles.My heart was beating fast. Blake walked beside me, and I could feel how tense he was too. We headed straight to my office. When we opened the door, I saw Julia and George sitting by my computer.Julia was clicking fast on the keyboard. Her eyes didn’t move from the screen.“Julia,” I said quickly. “What’s going on?”She turned her head a little but didn’t stop typing.“I got a notification,” she explained, her voice was tight. “Someone tried to access our company’s personal cloud.”My eyes widened again as I realized she wasn't joking with it. “What? When? How?”“Just an hour ago,” she replied. “The person tried to guess the passcode. They failed but kept trying.”I moved closer. “How many times

Blake’s POVI sat at my desk, staring at the schedule in front of me. Meetings, reports, calls... everything could wait. First, I needed to deal with my secretary. I pressed the intercom."Tell Miss Clara to come in now."She entered a few seconds later, looking nervous. Her hands were tight around her notepad and she avoided my eyes which increased my suspicion."Sit down," I said quietly.She sat slowly."Did you tell any Mr Daniel about my marriage with Jasmine?" I asked her straight.Her eyes widened as she shook her head fast."No, sir. I would never…""Don’t lie to me," I hissed out, anger coursing through me at her pathetic attempt to lie it off. "I’m not in the mood to play games, Clara.""I swear, I didn’t…""I can have you arrested right now," I said, leaning forward. "I have evidence. So you better speak now before it gets worse."Her lips trembled and she shook her head slowly for a while. And then suddenly, she dropped to the floor and began to cry."I’m sorry, sir! I did

Jasmine’s POVI sat at my desk, checking emails, when I saw a fancy invitation card with my name written in gold. It was from Daniel. I opened and read the words. He was hosting a big gala. Some business celebration and he said it was in my honor. I blinked at the screen for a few seconds. Why would he host a gala for me?Just then, Julia walked into my office holding a folder."Hey," I said slowly, still looking at the screen.She noticed my face. "What is it?"I turned the screen to her. "Daniel sent this. An invitation. Apparently it's a big event and he says it’s for me."Julia raised her brows. "For you? Did you tell Blake?"I shook my head. "Not yet. I don’t know how he’ll take it.""You need to tell him," Julia said right away. "It’s better he hears it from you and not from someone else.""I know," I agreed. "But you know how he gets when it comes to Daniel.""Still, hiding it will only make it worse," she shakes her head slowly.I nodded slowly. "Okay. I’ll tell him tonight."
