JAYDEN’S PENTHOUSE_09:01PM.
A tired yawn left my mouth as my eyelids twitched sleepily and my phone fell off my hand onto my lap.
It kinda snapped some sleepiness off my eyes, I adjusted myself and rested my back against the headboard.
I picked up my phone, blinked a few times to get rid of every trace of sleep and continued watching the movie I was watching on my phone _ I’m gonna watch enough movies, as much as I can because my Netflix’s subscription is gonna expire soon.
Haha.
“Baby, you’ve got to keep that phone and get some sleep, you’re tired” Jayden said.
I lifted my head and saw him coming out from the bathroom, he’s just taken his bath and he’s got no clothes on, only his towel hanging dangerously low around his wa-ist.
His hair was damped and some strands fell on his face, making him look hot like those models on Kelvin Klein underwear commercials.
My lower lip slide in my mouth and I couldn’t fight back the urge to bite it, as I imagined it to be Jayden’s lip.
“You’re drooling, baby” he said with a teasing smirk playing on his l-ips.
“Am I?”
I quickly wiped off my mouth, but frown when I didn’t touch anything w-t. I frowned at him and he laughed.
“I was kidding” he replied.
I glared at him and scoffed.
“You’re so full of yourself, I won’t drool over someone like you” I barked at him.
“Yeah, right” he said in an aloof tone.
I narrowed my eyes at him and set my l-ips on a thin line.
“You’re being arrogant, bastard!”
He laughed, he placed a finger on his l-ips and shushed me.
“He might hear you” he said.
“He?” I frowned in confusion.
Jayden dive into bed, reached forward and pulled me closer to him in a cuddling position. He snuggled his nose in my neck and inhaled deeply, then placed a soft k-ss on my bare shoulder.
“Who’s he?” I asked.
“Our son” he replied simply.
“Our son?”
“Hm” he hummed.
What son is he talking about? Or has he gone mad after having s-x? Is that the side effects of his mechanical heart?
“Our son” he said rubbing my bellybutton, that’s when it dawned on me.
He’s actually referring to the child he wanna have with me, but that’s not possible because we’ve only had s-x once and besides Vero gave me some after pills earlier – any possibility of me getting pregnant is out the window for now.
“Right, baby, I wanna inform you of something” he said.
“What?”
“I gave Matilda a call few minutes ago, we’ll be getting Isabella’s custody next month and we don’t need to take it to court”
“You don’t need to take it to court? What if she later denies it?” I asked.
From what I have heard about Matilda she’s quite a cunning fox, extra care needs to be taken while dealing with her.
“She can’t deny it because a judge would be there, besides she’s going to jail soon and I don’t think she’ll be coming out soon -she won’t be able to deny anything” he said.
“Why would she go to jail? She didn’t do anything wrong, right?” I asked.
Not wanting to give up your child is what any mother would do, right?
“Matilda isn’t a good mother, she has no right to fight over Isabella’s custody with me and besides, she’s done enough evil to put her behind bars” he said.
“O..ok”
I don’t know what he meant by that but I didn’t push the matter further, I’ll just have to wait and see.
“I’ve told you a lot about me, is there something I should know about you too?” Jayden asked.
“Hm, nope, I’m an open book” I answered.
He laughed. “Then what about the cheque I saw in your purse today?”
I tensed.
“You went through my purse?”
“Nope, I saw it by accident”
“Oh”
“Yeah, so, tell me who gave you that cheque?”
“Your uncle” I answered.
I took a peek at his expression, he’s wearing a confused frown and twisted his mouth.
“Why would uncle give you so much money?”
“To break up with you and leave”
“What?!” he exclaimed, his grip on me tightened. “A-and you accepted it? Are you trying to leave me? Don’t you love me?”
I laughed, I turned in his arms and k-ssed his l-ips softly.
“I love you and I’m not leaving, I only accepted it to teach your uncle a lesson”
“Er..I don’t understand”
“I want to teach him that it’s not every girl that can be manipulated with money, that’s a very outdated way”
He nodded in satisfaction, leaned down and gave me a hot k-ss on my l-ips.
“I love you” he said.
“I..I…”
I pulled away from him and jumped off the bed, then scre-med loudly.
“I hate you!”
“Oh, no you don’t” he jumped off the bed too. “Wait until I catch, I’ll make you eat your words” he said and started chasing me around the room.

FEW MINUTES LATER
“Jayden, stop, it’s night and we’re supposed to be sleeping” I pleaded with him when I couldn’t run anymore.
“Never!” he growled. “You shouldn’t say you hate me since it’s night”
I raised my hand in surrender, standing a few inches away from him with a sofa separating us.
“Fine, I love you, I love you, I love you, ok?”
“Nope, it’s too late” he said and started chasing me again.
Hmm, maybe I should teach him a lesson. I waited until he’s close enough, then grabbed the hem of his towel and ripped it off him -leaving his d×¢k dangling out.
“Oh my God, I didn’t know you weren’t wearing boxer” I gasped, feigning innocence.
“It’s only few hours and you’re missing this monster already?” he asked with sadistic smirk.
I took few steps away from him and ran off towards the bathroom, I dashed in and locked the door.
“Baby, you can’t hide in there forever!” he said, banging on the door.
“Well, you can’t stay awake all night, baby” I replied.
“Oh?” he scoffed. “Well, let’s see who’s gonna get tired first” he said.
Busted, I just land myself in trouble.

THE NEXT MORNING_VERONICA’S TEAHOUSE
I gro-ned as I opened my eyes, I tried to adjust myself but couldn’t because there was a weight pulling me down.
I rubbed off the sleep from my eyes and looked down, I saw an arm wrapped around my wa-ist -my eyes traced the arm until they landed on a handsome face.
A smile spread on my face as last night’s event replay in my head, I couldn’t help but reach out and car-ssed his cheek.
★FLASHBACK★
“Thank you for dropping me off” I told him.
He tilted his head and looked at my cafe behind me with a displeased frown, then back at me.
He reached for my hands and held them tenderly.
“I know I’m not your boyfriend and I’m insignificant in your life, but I’m worried about you, you can’t stay here alone tonight..I don’t think it’s safe” he said.
“Do you wanna spend the night with me?” I asked.
I don’t even know why I asked him that but I felt the sudden urge to have him around. He grinned at my question and his eyes lit up.
“Really? I can stay here with you?”
Cassie’s advice rang in my head and I think she’s right, Stephen might be the one for me, he might be different from my dad and I won’t know that if I don’t give him a chance.
“Are you changing your mind? Can I stay here?” he asked again, sounding impatient this time.
I smiled, I stepped closer to him, reached for his neck and bend him over, I went on tiptoes and crashed my l-ips on his -I could feel his eyes growing wide in surprise but I don’t care.
He held my shoulders and pulled me back slightly.
“Is..is this..what I’m thinking?”
I nodded.
“Yes, you’re my boyfriend now” I crashed my l-ips on his again.
He quickly wrapped his arms around my wa-ist, pulled me impossibly closer to him and deepened the k-ss.
★END OF FLASHBACK★
And that’s how we ended up here this morning, I don’t know if I made the right choice, but at least I’m happy for now.
“Am I dreaming again?” he asked.
I laughed at his question, I leaned down and k-ssed his temple.
“No, you’re not dreaming” I answered him.
“You’re really my girlfriend?”
I nodded.
“In real life?”
I nodded.
He sprang up and hugged me, he inhaled deeply in contentment.
“I can’t believe I’m not dreaming, I’m so happy -thank you, thank you very much for giving me a chance -I swear I won’t screw this up”
“You’d better not” I replied.

JAYDEN’S PENTHOUSE_AT THE DINNING TABLE.
“Dad, what’s this?” Isabella asked.
I lifted my head and saw Isabella holding up a medicine packet, my spoon fell off my hand at once as it started shaking nervously, my mouth fell open as fear gripped me and I shivered -how on earth did she find it?
“Isabella, it’s er…”
I was cut off my explanation, when Jayden snatched it from her before I could reach for it, he stared at it with a frown.
“It’s a drug, princess” he answered Isabella’s earlier question.
“Jayden, that’s a…”
He cut me off by raising his hand, a very deep frown appeared on his face as he read something on the packet and I saw the veins on his neck showing.
Even the veins on his arm holding the packet were also showing, don’t tell me he understands what that drug is used for.
“Baby, what is this?” he asked in a calm tone, I guess he doesn’t know what is it yet.
“It’s a.. it’s a drug” I answered.
“I know it’s a drug, but what is it for?”
Judging from his tone of voice I can’t come to any conclusion, I can’t tell if he knows what this drug is used for exactly and I can’t tell if he’s angry or not -he just look so calm, in fact, too calm.
“Baby, what is it for?” he asked again.
“Er… It’s a… ”
“Don’t lie to me, I hate lies the most” he said.
Should I tell him the truth? What if he gets angry? Can I withstand his anger?
But he’s my husband and I can tell him everything, I can just tell him I’m not ready to have kids now.
“Baby?”
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath before snapping them open again.
“It’s an after pills” I said.
“After pills?”
I nodded, but quickly used words when I realized he’s not looking at me but the packet in his hand.
“What’s an after pills?” he asked.
“It’s a preventative drug”
He raised his head and looked at me in the eyes, that’s when I saw it -disappointment -he’s disappointed in me.
“Preventative drug? What are you preventing? Getting pregnant with my child? Why?”
“Jayden, don’t get the wrong idea,…”
He chuckled dryly.
“Wrong idea? What’s the right idea?”
“I’m not ready to be a mother yet, I…”
“You’re not ready to be a mother yet” he nodded and laughed. “But you’re a married woman, you’re my wife and it’s natural for us to have babies together, it’s not as if I’m gonna leave you and our baby behind”
From my side view I could see Isabella trying not to listen to our discussion, or should I say argument.
“Let’s not fight over this, Isabella is listening”
“Let her listen, let her know her mom is trying to kill her younger brother, let her know her mom doesn’t want her to have siblings to play with, there’s nothing to hide”
I turned to Isabella and saw her shoving Jayden’s earpiece in her ear, I smiled mentally -what a smart girl.
“I want her to have siblings to play with, but can we not make it now?”
“Why not? Do you know how long I have waited to have another kid? Do you know if I can’t even father another kid? Do you know if I won’t be able to make love again? What if this is my only chance to give Isabella a sibling and you just threw it out the window? Have you thought of all these?”
He paused and shook his head.
“No, you haven’t thought of them because you’re not me”.
“Jayden, calm down”
“I can’t calm down and don’t tell me to calm down, that might be my only chance which you just threw away, Cassandra!”
My eyes grew wide when I heard his wristwatch beeping, my gaze quickly shifted to it and I saw he’s having only 5% left.
Wasn’t he having 87% just now? I guess anger drains his battery faster than when he’s happy.
“Jayden, hurry up and go to the charging room before you shut down”
“Stop pretending like you care about me when you clearly don’t, I’m seriously mad at you right now”
I nodded, I got up and rushed to him to help him up, but he shrugged my hands off him.
“Don’t touch me, I’m mad at you right now Cassandra!” He snapped at me and stormed off, towards the charging room.
Hmm, I guess I really stepped on his tail this time, I haven’t seen him so angry before -what should I do to gain his forgiveness now?
To be continued.
