DIANAS POV
"Diana you’re too kind for your own good," he said as his eyes softened as he looked at me.
"I just want to do what’s right," I lied. No you’re the people pleaser and overly kind one Keith, I thought to myself as I looked at him. Can’t say I didn’t like that about him though.
"Alright then I’ll make sure you are protected on the day and have extra bodyguards," he assured me.
I smiled as I nodded at him.
Count your days Jasmine you’re going to regret messing with me. The next time Keith goes to see you, trust me, it won’t be an opportunity for you to manipulate your way to his heart.
"In Tuesday evening I have to go one of my friends baby showers maybe afterwards I can pass by
"At night?" Keith asked me.
I nodded in response. It’s the only time I’ll be able to see her. She goes to work right?" I asked him.
Keith then checked the time on his watch."Is there anything in particular you would like to do there’s still time this afternoon," He asked me.
"As long as I’m with you, its okay we can do whatever," I said to him trying to sound humble.
He smiled at me. "How about you and Marco get ready and meet down here when you’re ready?"he told me.
"Of course," I replied smiling at him. Wished we could ditch Marco and I could be with him alone but I didn’t feel safe leaving Marco alone at home with the maids. I could bribe the maids to lie on my behalf but if they found out what I was hiding the power dynamic would shift significantly.
I hated my mother so much for making my father leave and barely raising me, however, there was one thing she taught me how to do. it was how to get a man to do what you want. The man my father and I had caught her sleeping with was her boss whom she worked as a maid for. Hypnotised him so good he made her his mistress and spent money on her.
JASMINES POV
After a moment I then heard the doorbell ring. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Who was it? If it was Keith again I was going to respectfully tell him to F off. I let out a sigh as I checked the the peephole of the door.
My heart sank in my chest upon seeing who it was. "Diana," I whispered in surprise.
What was she doing here in person? And at this time? It was literally 9pm.
One of the bodyguards rang the doorbell again.
I didn’t open the door and instead turned away from it. Planning to ignore her.
I made the mistake of opening for Keith and talking to him the last time. I for sure wasn’t going to open for Diana!
"Jasmine I know you’re in there, let me in!" she demanded from outside. "I know you’re awake your lights are on."
