Chapter 32

Shocked!

Author POV

He stared into her eyes, as he just couldn't help wondering what went wrong, they used to be this best of friends, she used to be his first priority, he loved her so much, that even when they were still kids, he had always planned to walk down the aisle with her, he had always been by her side, and waa once her superman, protecting her from anyone, who wants to bully her, but the thought of him hating her now, confuses him alot, and the more he try wrapping his head around the possible reason, the more complicated everything seem, and he just couldn't get the picture of the whole thing.

Staring into her teary eyes, a strong wave of mixed feelings spread through him, he didn't know whether to be touched, he didn't know whether to push her away, or comfort her. As much as he want to push her away, he couldn't do it, because of old time sake, even if he no longer love her, it doesn't justify the fact that he should push her away, right?

Slowly, he found himself, leaning in on her, and in the next seconds, their lips touched.

Her heart skipped like a million times, as her lips came in contact with hers, and in the next seconds, he felt butterflies, flying in her stomach, she couldn't believe that the only man she ever loved all her life, is standing right in front of her, kissing her, this is like a dream come through for her. She wished it never ended, she wished he could do it forever, she wish he stopped hating her, after the kiss, she couldn't stop wishing that things turn around in her favor, after the kiss.

Meanwhile, he kept kissing her, exploring her mouth, as much as he want to restrain himself, he just couldn't bring himself to doing it, and for some reason, he thought maybe giving them a chance together, will not be harmful, he thought maybe he may find himself, falling for her in the future, but he just couldn't help thinking about the negativity, what if he still doesn't have any feelings for her, even in future?

Slowly, her hands found their ways to his back, and wrapped her hands around his waist, while devouring his mouth, not ready to stop anytime soon.

He suddenly pulled away from the kiss, and took a step back, while staring at her blankly, he just couldn't just stopped wondering what came over him, he couldn't believe that he just kissed her. Closing his eyes briefly, he sighed frustratingly, as he threw his head back, with so much running through his mind. His mind is messing up, and he can't even seem to do anything about it.

"Jay..." She called, as she tried going close to him, but he raised his hand warningly, stopping her, and bringing her to an abrupt halt.

"I need to be in my room." He said coldly, before heading to the staircase, and in the next seconds, he started climbing it. Walking through the hallway, he just couldn't stop thinking about the whole incident, he couldn't believe that he kissed her, he's supposed to be mad at her, right? He's supposed to be angry at her for what happened, why is he being like this?

Pushing his door opened, he ambled in, and closed the door behind him, before turning around. He threw his phone and car keys on the bed, before removing his tie, after which he walked over to the bed, and sat on the edge of it, before burying his face in his palms, drowning in his own thoughts.

After almost an hour of thinking, he finally stood up, and dragged his feet to the bathroom. Stepping into the bathroom, he stripped out of his clothes, and got under the shower, before turning it on, as he let the water down his body. Staring into space, with his eyes opened, as the water kept pouring on his head to his toes, making his hair cling on to his face, he keep drowning in his own thoughts.

After almost an hour of standing under the shower, he was already feeling cold, and he turned it off. Grabbing the towel, he wrapped it around his waist, and ran his fingers through his hair, as water dripped from it, before finally stepping out of the bathroom.

Stepping out of the bathroom, he walked elegantly to the dresser, and sat down, before taking his time to work on his skin, which included applying his skin oil, lotion and other things. Standing up from the dresser, he walked over to his closet, and opened it, before running his eyes through the tons of new and neat clothes in it, and after what seemed like forever of eye scanning them, he finally reached out to black short jean trouser, and a blue shirt, and in the next few minutes, he was standing in front of the mirror, staring at his handsome reflection. He admired how his blue shirt and trousers fits him perfectly, as a smile crept its way to his face. He leaned in on the mirror, taking a close look at his reflection, and after what seemed like forever, he finally walked over to the bed, and took his fez cap, before wearing it, after which he picked his phone and car keys from the bed, and off he went out of his room.

Walking through the hallway, the sound of his buzzed phone brought him to an abrupt halt, and swiping the unlock button, he almost froze on his spot, at the sight he behold. Trending on the internet, is the picture of him and and Eve, kissing passionately, with the headline 'Popular and handsome business tycoon, Jayden Oscar's relationship with his new secretary'.

"What!" He exclaimed, as he scrolled down the news, but was shocked at the detailed news, and the comments from people.

He clicked on his contacts, and searched through it, before spotting Eve's number, and without wasting time, he clicked on the dial button, and waited impatiently for her to pick up, but after almost two minutes of ringing, he heard a different voice, a masculine voice.

"Hello, you have to come to Mabel's bar now." Came the masculine voice, and the call disconnected...
