Chapter 194 - Please Don't Leave Me

"Well it's a given since you're just a common whore. And I'm sure he doesn't remember someone like exist. He'd be so regretful when he knows I he slept with a pig in human form. Well thank God he now knows better than to chase after thrash" Jade retorted. She wasn't going to let Stephanie's words get to her.

"What did you say?" Stephanie asked incredulously.

"I'm not going to repeat myself. Just stay away from me or whatever belongs to me, including my man" Jade warned menanacingly as she continued on her stride to the door.

"Then watch me take Jake from you too, and every other thing that has your name on it" Stephanie snapped.

"I'd like to see you try" Jade dared before slamming the door on her way out.

"You bitch! How dare you?!" Stephanie cussed as she brushed the things on her desk to the floor.

"I'm so going to take Jake, just wait and see. I'm going to prove that you're way beneath me! I'm going to pay you back for everything" She yelled crazily.

.....

Jade's office.

"Girl what happened?" Sara curiously asked when Jade walked back to the office with a scowl on her face. Jade noticed the odd and inquisitive look people were giving her, but she didn't mind. She had no time for that at the moment.

"Nothing" Jade replied dismissively. She was too angry to say anything at the moment. As a matter of fact she was so angry at Jake at the moment. As much as she didn't want to take Stephanie's word seriously, she still couldn't help but get angry by them.

He just had to sleep with Stephanie didn't he? Of all the women he could have shared a bed with it just had to be Stephanie, the only person she hated most in this world.

Jade knew she wasn't supposed to get angry at him, since that was his past life. Not that he has assured her that he'd never do anything like that, but she has subconsciously believed he was changed and she was sure he has, but she couldn't shake off the way she was feeling right now. Her stupid heart just had to fall in love with a notorious casanova.

She really want to pull his hair right now. She want to pull it so bad, he'd kneel and beg her.

She hated the fact that she had to hear Stephanie gloat about having sex with boyfriend. Couldn't he have made a better choice of the kind of women he slept with. All this happened in the past, even before they met, but her heart was not ready to understand.

"Jade!" Sara called her for the upteenth time. Jade snapped her head towards her, cocking her brows questioningly.

"Your phone, it's ringing" Sara informed her. She has been calling her for a while now, but she was too lost in thought that she didn't even hear her or the ringing phone.

"Are you okay?" Sara asked with concern.

"Sure I am" Jade assured as she picked up her phone. Her countenance became grave when she saw who was calling.

'Speak of the devil' she hissed inwardly.

Jade was feeling more angry as she stared at his number. Maybe she shouldn't answer his call, that way he would know she was mad at him. But how would he know that just by not picking his call? She asked herself.

Sincerely, she didn't want to be angry at him. She just wanted to enjoy their newly started relationship. She just wanted his love and care while she did the same for him. Though she was trying to be reasonable, the anger in her was blocking whatsoever logical reasoning she had.

Finally she decided to pick his call.

"Hello Jade"

"Hey"

'Hey? Why was she sounding like that?' Jake asked himself.

"How are you?" He asked.

"Fine" Jade replied.

"It's noon, have you had your lunch?" He asked.

"No"

"I've been calling you, and you've not been picking up. Are you busy?"

"Yes"

That was it. Jake didn't like the way her voice was sounding cold and her answers were monotonous. Was she angry at him? Did he do something wrong? Jake panicked at the thought of Jade being angry at him. Was it because he hasn't called her since morning? But they chatted this morning and everything was fine.

"Jade, is something wrong?" Jake asked, his heart was beginning to race.

"Nothing. I'm just tired" She lied. She didn't like the way she was acting towards him, but she really couldn't help it.

"Are you angry with me? Did I do something wrong?" Jake asked those questions with great difficulty. He didn't want to think he has offended her. How was he going to pacify her if she was?

Jade kept quiet for a while as she thought about her answer. She had better get it out of her chest, and he should at least assure her that he wasn't going to continue with his chivalrous ways. She can't go through another round of betrayal. It would kill her.

"Yes I am" She answered. Jake almost passed out when he heard her reply. What did he do? Was she going to break up with him now?

"Jade, Babe I'm sorry. I don't know what I've done wrong but please forgive me. Please don't leave me. Tell me what I did wrong, I promise I'm going to work on it and I'll never do it again. But you can't break up with me." Jake begged. He was almost at the point of tears. His heart was in a mess.

Jade felt her heart melt when she heard him. He was sounding like a baby, her baby. She suddenly felt bad for getting angry at him, but she still wanted that assurance. Though it might be mere words, but that'll take whatever feeling she was having right now away.

When Jade didn't reply, Jake felt like he was dying. She was going to leave him, wasn't she?
