Chapter 12 He found out!!

The next morning, Jasmine was in a good mood as she brushed her teeth while watching the news on her phone.

It was a broadcast showing her wedding but the most interesting part was when Jack's sex tape was leaked out.

That was the major headline.

Seeing how embarrassed Jack Raven's face looked in the video placed her in a good mood.

The news has gone viral as everybody was talking about it.

"Let's see how you leave the house, Jack-Ass." Jasmine giggled in excitement while smiling at herself in the mirror.

She quickly freshened up as she had work to do at her father's office. She works at the Trevor's groups as a designer.

After having her bath, she settled for a black knee-length skirt and purple sleeves. She wore her slippers instead as she wasn't ready to leave yet.

Jasmine skipped downstairs to go grab something to eat. She hummed along in a lively mood as she descended the stairs.

She could hear the sound of a knife hitting the chopping board coming from what seemed to be a kitchen. She walked towards the kitchen and surprisingly, she saw an older lady.

The woman spotted her and a smile soon spread across her face. "Good morning, Madam Elm. I'm the serving maid." the older woman greeted as she stopped cutting the veges.

Jasmine smiled back as she said tenderly. "Good morning to you too Mrs..." she trailed off intentionally.

"Mrs. Scot" The older lady quickly informed and Jasmine nodded. "Breakfast would be served soon. Mr Kingsley said you should meet him in his study when you wake up."

Jasmine raised a brow. "Where is this study located?"

"In the left wing upstairs. Walk down the long corridor, you'll find it on your left" Mrs Scot said to her and Jasmine thanked her before leaving.

Jasmine sighed as she climbed the stairs slowly, her eyes moving around the place. This was her first time in his house and honestly, the interiors were much more beautiful than the ones back at her father's house.

Everything screamed of super-rich materials, and the artworks were all magnificent just lying on the walls.

Though the Trevor family were rich, it was nothing compared to the Elm family.

Jasmine soon saw the door that was made of huge and fine timber. She sucked in a deep breath before raising her hand.

Knock! Knock!

She knocked twice on the door before his familiar voice came from the other side of the door. "Come in"

She twisted the doorknobs before pushing the door open. A cold breeze immediately rushed towards her face making goosebumps form on her skin.

'He was living under such a cold atmosphere in here.' Jasmine couldn't help but complain in her head.

Her eyes first caught the bookshelves in the corner of the almost-dark study room, it was stacked with books.

A particular scent filled her nostril and she realized it was coming from the big air freshener on top of the shelves.

"Are you going to keep assessing everywhere?" Kingsley's cool voice called out, making Jasmine remember someone was in the room.

She quickly shut the door after her before walking towards Kingsley who was sitting on his chair, close to the window.

His left elbow was placed on the broad table while one leg was on top of the other.

His long black hair was styled to the back and tied with a black ribbon. He calmly watched her come closer before gesturing for her to sit on the chair opposite his table.

His eyes were a little sour from last night but he managed.

Facing him, Jasmine swallowed hard because of how he was staring at her. He didn't say a word to her, making her nervous.

The silence stretched on for close to two minutes before Kingsley grabbed a file from the stack of books and placed it on the table.

He used his fingers to push the file on the table towards Jasmine. One word only came from his mouth. "Contract"

Hearing that it was a contract, Jasmine nodded a little absentmindedly as if lost in thoughts before she slowly brought the file nearer.

She opened the first page and she was surprised to see so many stuff written on it. She wondered what it looked like on the other pages too.

"This is much. Can I read this when I get back from work??, I might be late if I stay to read through." she whined and Kingsley countered her words.

"I need to send the copy to my lawyer this morning while going to the office. So you have to sign the papers today." He said Coolly before taking his pen and throwing it towards Jasmine.

"I can't sign it when I haven't read it." She complained and he just tapped his finger on that table while telling her.

"There's no major issues in the contract. The only most important ones are: firstly, You can't meddle in my affairs and honestly, I won't have that luxury of time to meddle in your affairs too." He said to Jasmine who was already reading through the contract.

Jasmine spotted something and she widened her eyes in shock. "I must not miss the 10 pm curfew else they would be a punishment??" She mused in annoyance "Curfew?? Why's there a curfew?"

Her question made him stiffen a little before he said coldly to her. "Those are my rules, just read through and save your questions"

Jasmine twisted her face too as she gritted out. "I can't accept unreasonable terms. This is about the two of us, not just you!" She snapped back at him, Kingsley could only glare at her without saying another word.

Jasmine huffed in frustration before she continued. The rest made sense until she came to the last line on the front page. "I would visit the doctor every two weeks?? Why?"

Her question only irked Kingsley who wasn't paying attention to her before. He dropped his leg that was on the other forcefully, creating a faint noise. His eyes squinted at the small woman before he growled at her. "Wondering how I found out that the sweet Trevor heiress has Meningioma, huh? "

Jasmine gasped in shock when she realized that he had found out. Seeing her expression, Kingsley snorted at her before relaxing his back on the chair with irritation on his face.

He looked outside the window while Jasmine lowered her head. He said coolly, hiding his expression from Jasmine while trying to sound firm. "You will be seeing my doctor every two weeks so you can get the proper care. And You can't refuse!" He didn't give her a leeway.

Jasmine silently dropped the file on the table while excusing herself. "I'll think about it when I get back from work." She stood up from her chair and made to leave.

Kingsley raised a brow at her before getting up from his chair too and rushed towards her. With a frown on his face, he grabbed Jasmine's arm a little roughly, earning a gasp from her.

Jasmine widened her eyes when he pushed her slightly and her back hit the wall behind her, his hands caged her in between as they locked gazes, his breathing fanning her face.

She could feel the heat rush up her skin when he touched her, wrapping his arm around her waist, a burst of electricity passed through her.

That particular faint voice screamed in her head 'Run!!'
