Chapter 149

She slumped to the ground as she read the letter again

' I will never look at you, stop trying to come close to me stay clear ' that was what the letter said

She had gone to the hospital that day and secretly placed the letter in his briefcase hoping he would find it and he did but things didn't turn out the way she had expected

She was expecting him to also confess his undying love to her but she never got it

Hot tears fell from her eyes down to her cheek, she had not been able to get over this rejection even after three years, as if this hurtful letter was not enough, he brought Patricia home to introduce her to her parents one month after

That was why she left three years ago to go study abroad and also pursue acting, she needed something to take her time and acting came right in time, now that she thinks about it, she never really wanted to be a doctor she was just a naive young girl in love

She cried her eyes out, it was the only way to relieve herself of the pain she was going through at the moment, she lay on the floor and cried to satisfaction

Patricia got into her room and went directly to her wardrobe, she took out her jewelry box and brought out a letter

Three years ago when she started to set her plans in motion, she had called Angel because she knew she didn't have the resources to pull it off all by herself

She invited Mike out for dinner at her former place, they all went to the same high school and college so they were all familiar with each other, Angel had tried to get them together back then

But she declined, she was still very vexed about what happened, but she thought it true and knew she needed Mike in her plan especially after he became the family doctor to the Smith family after his father's demise

He agreed to come to her place and she drugged him and made sure they had sex, which she used as a basis for her fake pregnancy which led to her marrying him

She was helping get inside and settled, she carried his things including his briefcase when this particular letter fell out of it, she was curious as to what was inside so she picked it up and read

It turned out to be a love letter from Grace Smith, everyone knows Grace likes Mike, it was obvious but the fool didn't even notice the poor girl

She didn't want Grace to ruin her plan that's why she sent back another letter telling her Mike didn't want her and that she needed to stay clear

She knew that was bad but she didn't care, all she wanted was to get her revenge, she would make Angel beg for mercy and she would marry Christopher in the end

Seeing how good her plans were working out she went to bed with smiles

Jane could not find sleep and neither could Chris they both kept tossing and turning

Chris woke up a bit late as he could not get much sleep until the early hours of the morning, he looked pretty rough he checked for the time and it was past eight already

"Oh shit" he jerked up from the bed and rushed towards the bathroom and quickly took his bath

He came into his closet and found that his clothes were not yet arranged for him, and his coffee was not even here

His mind drifted to Jane immediately ' She was avoiding, but he already apologized ' he thought

This girl was driving him crazy, he picked out a suit jacket, shirt, and pants for himself

He finished dressing up and he was looking gorgeous as usual, he was already done dressing and Jane was still nowhere to be found

His patience was running out and his mood was getting sour, this is so not a way to get started with one's day

She was still not here to get him breakfast and he was sure it was time for breakfast, he stepped out of his room and went directly to her room but she was not there, she must be downstairs then

He headed for the dining room and his eyes spotted Jane she was just standing there like a goddess from another planet entirely

She was wearing a new dress today, he had seen this one on her, it must be one of those clothes she just shopped alongside Grace

The gown was a knee-length straight one, it was a red gown, it brought out all her curves and it highlighted her beauty even more, the beast in him wanted to tear that cloth off her right now

Jane felt someone gaze all over her, she looked up and it was Christopher, she thought as much he was the only one that looked at her like that, Jane quickly averted his gaze to avoid him

She wasn't in a good mood either, she was not able to get a single sleep all through the night, she was too immersed in her thoughts, and she couldn't stop thinking about him not even for a second

She almost betrayed her dignity and self-respect by wanting to sneak into his room but thank God she controlled herself

Seeing that she was still upset with him Chris angrily sat down without saying a word to anyone

The temperature in the room was so cold and it was all due to Chris's mood, his face looked like he was going to murder someone, Jane stole a few glances at him as she served him his food

She was about to put some salad on his plate when he touched her with his fingers, no one could see what he was doing because there were bowls on the table blocking the view
