Chapter 22: Shocked
Chapter 22: Shocked
Jasmine's POV
I didn't tell Diego what happened yesterday. Stacy wants to cancel the contract and find another new wedding planner.
I place the food on the table and remove my apron.
"Time to eat!" I shouted. David and Diego were playing in the living room. I cooked for our lunch, but I still did not want David to go outside.
"We're coming." Diego carried my son and ran towards the kitchen. He was laughing and raising his hand like Superman.
"Okay enough with the game now." I place a glass of water In Front of them.
"I thought you had a meeting today?" Diego said while eating. My forehead was knotted because of what he said.
"Actually-" I sigh before I continue. And wiped David's mouth.
"Jaz, I'm not going to force you, okay? But if you don't want to do it, then I guess I will. Mrs. White emailed earlier that you'll have a meeting with her later," he said. What? I thought she cancelled it. Does that mean that she still wants me to be their wedding planner? Is she planning something?
"No, I mean she didn't email me and I have no idea that I have a meeting today" I reasoned. He just nodded and told me the time and place.
I hurriedly eat my lunch and take a shower because I have no time. I just wore a black dress and said goodbye to both of them.
I drove through the place until I arrived. Though I'm not familiar with this house I still click the doorbell. It seemed that no one was there. Is she trying to sabotage me?
I turned around when I couldn't wait anymore. But then the door opened. And when I turned around to look at her my expression changed.
"You're late," his voice was serious. I looked at him, and deep inside I wanted to slap him as hard as I could. He was acting like he had done nothing in the past. I smiled sweetly before answering him.
"Sorry, Mr. White. I wasn't informed earlier about the meeting, "I formally said. He looked at me, but I raised my eyebrows, asking if he would let me in or not. He opened the door and I entered, I even looked at him when I heard him lock the door. I sigh and look around but no one is around except him. "Where is Mrs. White?" I sat while placing the papers on the table.
"She had an important meeting; we're not yet married; she's still a Forster" " he casually said and sat without breaking his stares on me. I rolled my eyes. "I'm sorry Mr. White, but I can't continue this meeting without her. "I firmly said. I stood up and grabbed the papers. "Don't you think that I also have the right to know about the wedding?" He said and leaned his back on the seat.
I let out a deep breath, looked at him, and went back to my seat. I don't want him to think that I'm not professional here and that I'm still affected by what happened in the last few years. en FindNovel
"Well, maybe we could start now. I still have some appointments after this. " I said and started to hand him the papers. "What is that?" He looks at the papers that I am holding and has no plan of getting them.
"The designs Mr. White" I force myself not to curse him. My hand is getting numb and he still doesn't want to get the papers.
"Is that the way you treat your clients? You shouldn't be in that place, you should be by my side" he said pointing at his side.
I sigh while he's waiting for me to sit beside him. I think I need a longer patient from this project.
I stood up and went to sit beside him, but I was still maintaining the distance between us. I even saw him smile like he was trying to irritate me.
"As I'm saying, This theme is much
better than this one" I showed him the images. He leaned closer to take a look that made me irritated. Why doesn't he just get these damn papers!
I placed it in front of him, which made him glare at me.
"We also talk about your bride's wedding gown. And she's choosing between these two" I have her the image and also the blood where I write all the things that they need.
He didn't look at them; instead, when I turned to look at him, he was looking at me.
"Mr. White, if you are not in the mood just tell me. I'm not here to waste my time." I firmly said.
"Jasmine," he called me by my name just like the first time he saw me.
"Please be professional sir, and next time I will request that Mrs. White is here." I tried to smile and I saw how sad his face became.
"I thought you're dead, I'm happy to see you-" I cut him off and stood up.
I don't want to talk about the past. And why is he bringing those things? Isn't he happy when he heard the news that I was dead?
"I'm sorry but I don't know what
you're talking about. And if nothing further have to go. "I said while getting All the papers. He holds my hand, making me yell in shock.

"Travis!" I shouted and got my hand back.
"I'm sorry", he stood up, but I hurriedly got all the papers.
"Jasmine, let's talk-" I sarcastically laughed because of what he said.
Talk? I don't remember that there is something to talk about between us. Is he trying to play with me again? That's not going to happen anymore.
I'm done with him. I'm done with their cruelty. How he played me on his hand. How he made me believe in the things he only made up.
"There's nothing to talk about, Mr. White. We'll just continue our meeting with your bride's presence, " I said and left that house.
