Chapter 130 - This Can't Happen Between Us
"She should be grateful it is Steve she ended up spending the night with. I am certain I would have strangled her to death if it was she and Ice Prince I met like this," Jasmine muttered before she closed the door on them. She went downstairs afterwards.
"How are Steve and Carmella?" Jackson asked the instant Jasmine climbed down from the stairs.
"So her name is Carmella," Jasmine repeated like she did not hear his words clearly. She walked over to the couch he was sitting and sit beside him. She sat in such a way that her legs were folded into cushions.
"Yes. She said is the CEO of True Beauty Cosmetic Company...,"
"So that is what the CEO of the most famous Cosmetics brand in the country looks like?" Jasmine asked rhetorically. She looked slightly surprised to hear that the lady having an intimate session with Steve upstairs was the founder of the famous company.
"What were she and Steve doing upstairs?" Jackson repeated his earlier question.
"His bedroom was steamy hot when I got there. I am sure I would have been burned from the flames emitting out of their bodies if I had spent another minute there," Jasmine exaggerated as she stares at his handsome face.
"The room was steamy and you could have been burned by the flames emitting from their bodies? What do you mean? I don\'t understand your point," Jackson said putting on an innocent look.
Is he just ignorant or is he pretending to be ignorant so I will say it in a way everyone will understand?
Jasmine thought before she pulled Jackson closer.
"I mean I met them having sex in there. It wasn\'t just the regular sex couples have against the wall but was rough and exciting to those doing the deed," Jasmine whispered into his ears before she pulled away. The way she said those words so carefreely made Jackson stare at her. For a minute he could not take his eyes off her.
"Ice Prince, why do I find the way you stare at me strangely sometimes?" Jasmine asked when she realised that Jackson\'s gaze was still on her.
"Sometimes I feel unexplainable and overwhelming emotions in your eyes, tell me is this my imagination or is what I said true?" Jasmine asked as she stares into his eyeballs she has always avoided staring into.
"Stop staring at me and just say something," Jasmine ordered after three minutes of staring into each other\'s eyes.
"Why are your gazes always so strange and unpredictable?" Jasmine questioned as she raised her hand and touched his right eye. The two kept on inching towards each other without even realising it.
After so many minutes of staring their lips finally meet. Despite not expecting this to happen, Jackson managed to somehow gain access to her mouth. With his right hand supporting her neck he kissed her passionately. This passionate kiss was his way of confessing his feelings to her.
After about five minutes Jasmine abruptly pulled away.
"No, this can\'t happen between us," Jasmine said standing up to her feet.
"I might be shameless but I am not totally heartless. Even though I want to get intimate with a man it can\'t be with another woman\'s man. Being the third wheel is a big disgrace to me and my image," Jasmine said sternly.
"I admire your so-called love for the woman you love. The noblest thing a man can ever do for the woman he said he loved is changing himself for her. This is the hardest thing any man can ever do for anyone. Although if I was the lady you love, I would have told you not to change yourself. True love doesn\'t have anything to do with changing yourself. If she truly loves, she will love you for who and what you are," Jasmine said in a serious tone.
"Didn\'t you say you don\'t believe in love so how do you know all these things...,"
"That was my belief before my beliefs were crushed. At the moment I don\'t believe in such nonsense," Jasmine said firmly. Her expression showed that she meant what she said.
"The last thing I want to do is ruin a perfect relationship so don\'t you dare get attracted to me and also under no circumstances must this repeat itself...,"
"Isn\'t your habit breaking up relationships so why is mine different? Why aren\'t you eager to break my relationship?" Jackson asked as she stares at her face.
"Yes, I break up relationships but not all relationships?...,"
"What does that mean?" Jackson asked not understanding what her words meant.
"The worst relationship any woman can ever be in is being in a relationship with a cheating man. Because of his unfaithfulness, there will be no happiness in such relationships so what is the use of being in a relationship if there is no happiness, and trust which is the basis of every relationship? So what I do is save such women from being unhappy all their lives. If they nullified such a relationship there is still a huge possibility that they will find happiness with the next man so what I do is liberate them from a relationship which would have ended tragically," Jasmine said without feeling any remorse.
"Are you trying to say that it is only men that cheat? Aren\'t women unfaithful too so why do you only help the women when men too might be victims of infidelity?" Jackson asked curiously.
"And who says I only liberate women from their relationship? Why would I flirt with a faithful man after calling his cheating wife to the venue of our meeting if not to save the man from being with an unfaithful woman?" Jasmine asked beaming.
"If what you said is true then don\'t you feel unfair that people misunderstand you? I mean breaking up relationships is the reason people refer to you as the she-devil so don\'t you feel unfair...,"
