Chapter 345: Don’t You Trust Me?
It had been two weeks since Alex last spoke with her about anything other than passing. And during this time, Jasmine had repeatedly dreamed about the man being taken away from her through various means. In some nightmares, Ali murdered Alex and tried to take her for himself, which she prevented by her committing suicide.
In others it was her father, and the Iranian Government that tried to execute Alex, or Imprison him for various offences. Either way, with each passing night, Jasmine’s affection for Alex grew. To the point where Alex had not even tried to make a move to finish maxing out the girl’s affection.
And yet on the 14th night from their last encounter, that is exactly what happened. Overnight, Jasmine had maxed out her affection because of another nightmare which she saw Alex taken away from her with her very eyes.
When she finally awoke with tears flowing from her eyes, the Persian beauty, whose father was a general in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, realized what she needed to do. She was so obsessed with the idea of asking Alex to elope with her that she did not even realize that she had grown even more beautiful.
Something that one would normally notice when looking in the mirror. But she did not, instead Jasmine waited all day for Alex to get done with his meetings. Before covertly following him to gardens of the hotel where he normally had a smoke break.
When Alex was sitting alone smoking, he called out in a voice that surprised Jasmine, alerting her that he had known she was following him the entire time.
“You can come out now. Nobody has followed us here...”
When Jasmine revealed himself, Alex smiled. She may have not noticed that her beauty had increased, but he sure did. And Thus he was quick to announce this with a particularly snarky smile on his face.
“Anything for you, my love...”
Upon hearing this, Alex smiled and brushed his hand against the woman’s cheek, where he then leaned in and whispered something to her.
“Then go back to your home... I will be leaving Iran tonight to avoid suspicion. But two weeks from now, there will be some men who come to kidnap you. Go with them, and you will find yourself reunited with me in Mexico shortly thereafter...”
This plan sounded incredibly dangerous, one that could very easily make Alex an enemy of Iran, or even cause an international incident. Because of this, Jasmine was quick to express her worries.
“This... It sounds awfully dangerous. Isn’t there another way?”
Alex, however, shook his head with a confident expression on his face, where he then posed a single question to Jasmine before walking away without hearing an answer. Because he already knew it.
“Don’t you trust me?”
After saying this, Alex did exactly as he planned. Parting from Iran on good terms with the Iranian Military and its government as a whole. Meanwhile, he began to arrange a false flag incident, one that would incriminate Oman in the assassination of an Iranian General’s daughter, while simultaneously faking Jasmine’s death and ensuring she reunited with Alex in Mexico.
As for the Sultanate of Oman, they had no idea that soon enough, they would be looking at a major international incident, one that could very well provoke a total war between them and Iran. All while they were still trying their best to locate the missing Saudi Princess and the shameful scoundrel who had absconded with her.
