Chapter 23

Today I was back from work.

Back to my daily routine and my friends who were trying their best to make me happy.

I woke up completely feeling out of sort and it was really messing with my head. I was walking around like everything was fine but inside I am so traumatized.

I had finished all my work by 4:55pm and went to check if John was ready to go home.

Knocking on his door,he called me in.

He gave one of his charming heart stopping smiles as I entered his office.

"Hey,are you ready to go home?"

"Actually I have told Mike,my driver to take you home. I've got alot of files to attend to". He answered.

"Okay. Thanks".

"Are you okay?" it was as if he was looking into my soul and it was making me scared.

"Yeah,I'll see you later". I said working out.

John's POV

I didn't believe it when she said nothing is wrong with her.

It played the whole time I was working with the files. Something is definitely off.

I got into the car and drove off hurriedly. When I got there, Ella was in the living room.

"Where is Jasmine?"

"She has been in her room since she got back". she answered while her eyes were on the TV.

I knocked on her door but after no reply, I walked in.

Nothing. But I noticed that the bathroom door was closed. I was about going out but something was definitely off.

I knocked on the bathroom door,I got no reply. I turned the knob but it was locked.

I started pounding at the door.

"Jasmine,open the door!"

Kicking the door down, I found her on the floor. There was blood everywhere and a blade close to her.

I ran and held her. I tried to put pressure on the cut while I quickly called for an ambulance.

"John, what's going on?" I heard Ella calling me.

"Don't come in here Ella,wait downstairs and let the paramedics in!" she won't be able to cope if she sees her sister like this.

I tried walking her up,but she wasn't responding.

The paramedics arrived immediately,and bandaged her wrist. They took her into the ambulance and Ella drove with me to the hospital.

We were asked to stay outside by the nurses while they attend to her. We walked into the hospital and saw her looking so pale.

The doctor said she lost a lot of blood and will need a blood transfusion to save her.

We sat on the bedside until I sent Ella home to rest. Mrs Trenton was waiting for her.

I stayed with Jasmine.

I don't know when I started feeling so overprotective over her or when I stopped fucking a random girl every night but it happened.

I cared for her and Ella. I really want to take care of her and make her happy. I held her hands while looking at her beautiful pale face and smiled.p
