CHAPTER 42
'Well what exactly are you saying Evan?" I calmed myself and opened my ears to his voice.
'I'm saying that I want something solid with you. I want you to be my present and my future. I'm not looking to fuck you and then ignore you. I want us to become official but you need to know what you're getting into. I need you to trust me Jasmine, and don't make any rash decisions or judgement before you talk to me first. You need to know exactly what you're getting yourself into."
'I get that."
'I don't think you do. Why don't you sleep on it and let me know tomorrow when we get back from the business meeting."
He got off the bed and left the room, leaving me in a circle of thoughts floating around in my head.
Jasmine's POV
I changed into a pair of black jeans, a white T-shirt and a pair of flat sandals I brought along with me. I gathered my notepads, pens, and pencils and stuck them into my large folder.
I took my purse and room key. I shut the door behind me and made my way downstairs to the lobby where Evan was waiting so we can get to the meeting.
His rental car was parked outside the entrance. The ride to the meeting was silent. He didn't say a word and neither did I.
We arrived at a three storied building complex. A large black gate automatically opened as our car approached. He drove up to the parking lot area and parked. He held a large brown envelope in his hand as he got out. I followed suit, without a word.
Two could definitely play this game.
'Ah, you've made it!" a voice belonging to a very beautiful woman said with enthusiasm as she came up and shook hands with him.
'And good morning to you. You must be Miss. Blackman, yes? I'm Mrs. Rebecca Alton." she added, extending her hand to me. I shook it.
'Good morning," I answered short.
I didn't want to give off a rude impression although I had no idea who she was. I had never seen her at Hollen Tower before but she looked as if she was well acquainted with Mr. Hollen.
'Take notes," was all he said to me as we walked into the building.
I spent my morning listening to him sealing deals and landing proposals to Mrs. Rebecca Alton and three of her associates in the boardroom she had ushered us into. It was somewhat difficult to capture every detail between them but I did capture the most important points which should meet his standards.
The last thing I wanted was for him to think I was becoming too comfortable and I was slipping and becoming sloppy.
The drive back to the hotel was the same as going from it.
Silence.
I got out the car quickly and made my feet carried me as fast as possible through the lobby and towards the elevator. I was relief when the doors closed in and I was carried upstairs by myself.
I opened my room door and locked it behind me.
I proofread the notes and made the correction before tossing it aside.
Then a knock came on the door.
'Who is it?" I asked.
'Jasmine, stop playing games and open the door."
'Please go away."
'Jasmine, open the door please!" his voice was firm.
I opened the door and he walked in.
'Where are the notes?"
'On my bed."
'Go get it."
'Go get it yourself."
I sat down on the sofa and turned on the television, leaving him standing there like if he had heard me spoke a foreign language. I had a satisfying smirk on my lips, concealed by my hand as I looked at Tom and Jerry.
'Jasmine, come here," he said again.
His words fell on deaf ears because I remained seated and continued looking at the cartoon.
'Jasmine!"
'Would you stop wearing out my name like that? Your notes are on the bed in the bedroom. Go get it and get out of my room."
Evan's POV
She had definitely crossed her line with me.
I walked towards the bedroom, taking the note pad and made my way back to the sitting room where she was looking at the silly cartoon. I never knew she a childish edge. I liked that.
'Jas, can we talk?"
'Evs, what's up?" she asked.
‘OKAY! THAT WAS IT!'
I summoned up my strength to raise her off the sofa and carried her into the bedroom over my shoulder. She was squealing and laughing like a little girl.
I threw her onto the bed.
'What are you doing?" she asked, gathering herself up in a ball.
'You're going to get punished for your attitude," I answered with a smirk.
I pulled her towards me by her ankles, bringing her up to my lips immediately on reaching me. She gave in to my kiss almost instantly, running her fingers through my hair as I removed her T-shirt and unzipped her pants. She wore a pair of black lace underwear, which raised my passion level to an all time high.
My nerves sparked with electricity. I made my way down south with my lips. I parted her underwear slowly, taking her in while brushing my hands against her silky soft chocolate skin.
My mouth went to her afterwards, spreading her legs apart as my tongue worked. She let out a loud moan, twisting her hip and holding onto my head as I devoured her.
