“So sweetheart, Why did you have to refer to me as a street thug?” Liam asked as they hit the road.
Jasmine released a nervous laugh… “Did I? Of course not, Adam did”
“But you sure look like a street thug” Jasmine muttered.
“Really? Then what are you doing with a street thug?” Liam asked.
“If I had my way, I wouldn’t be here with you. weirdo cat!!” She said whispering the last part.
“My handsomeness did the trick!” Liam said and Jasmine rolled her eyes.
“Who’s Adam to you sweetheart?!” Liam asked.
“He’s a friend and a brother to me” She answered.
Liam nodded… “How long have you known him?”
“For as long as I can remember!” She simply said.
“Does he have a girlfriend?” He asked.
Hold on; Why is he asking so much questions about Adam? Wait, is he gay?;; Jasmine thought and gasped slightly.
“I asked a question sweetheart!” Liam asked.
“Are you gay??” Jasmine couldn’t help but ask. She somehow prayed within her he shouldn’t be gay. But if he is, then what happens to her?.
“What?”
Jasmine Cleared her throat and adjusted on her seat.
“Are you gay? Not that it’s a bad thing though. You can just tell me. I promise I won’t laugh or mock you,,, I can even hook you up with someone and.. …” The car screanched to an halt.
Jasmine noticed Liam’s tight grip on the staring and his glaring angrily at her.
Did she say something wrong!!
Liam held her cheek, raising it up, he slammed his lips on hers. Jasmine felt numb.
He bit her lower lip making her gasp. He used that opportunity to slide in, taking in every inch of her lips.
She felt a spark build up within her,, the feeling she hadn’t felt before. Not even Martin made her feel this way.
That jerk!!
She regained herself and pushed Liam away slightly, breaking the kiss.
“What,,, What did you just do?” She asked.
“Your lips where moving too fast and you where spilling nonsense, So I thought of shutting you up”
“I asked you a simple question,, all you needed to do was give me an answer and not the other way around”
“I just gave you an answer sweetheart!! It was the best answer ever” He said grinning.
“I demand an apology”
“For?”Liam asked, even though he clearly understands what she meant.
“For kissing me against my will. I demand an apology”
“I could kiss you again sweetheart, your lips move too fast and it’s tempting” He said moving his hands to her lips.
Jasmine glared at him. He’s not only a weirdo cat, he’s a total Flirt and a Jerk.

Nolan’s Empire;;
Flashes of light could be seen as they took various pictures.
“Sh*t!! it’s the paparazzi” Liam cursed. He should have known they are always on his tail.
“See, it’s all your fault, now we’re gonna be in the news” Jasmine lamented as she bent her head slightly.
“Stop putting the blame on me, if you hadn’t asked such silly question, then this wouldn’t have happened. On a second thought, why don’t we do it again, so it would be clear to the whole world that we are a couple. Looks good right?”
Jasmine rolled her eyes,, Even in this situation, he’s such a flirt.
Liam picked up his phone, “Send your men, the paparazzi are at it again” He said ending the call.
They remained in the car till the security came. They began to push them aside, creating space.
“Stay in the car, I’ll come get you” Liam said. He came down and jogged to the other side, opening the door.
Jasmine came down, her legs where feeling jelly. “C’mon” Liam said. He held her hand and they both walked into the company, ignoring the questions thrown at them.
The security did a good job keeping them away as all Jasmine did was cling onto him tightly.
She couldn’t help be admire the interior deco of the company. It’s superb.
“Good morning sir, ma’am” His workers greeted. Jasmine responded with a little smile and wave.
She noticed Liam didn’t respond to their greetings but only nodded his head.
“Arrogant jerk!” She muttered as they walked into the elevator.
Liam cleared his throat making Jasmine look at him. He used his eyes, signalling to his hands.
Jasmine noticed she was still holding him tightly and pressing her b**bs on his hands.
She quickly moved away from him flushing in embarrassment.
“You’re tempting me sweetheart,, this isn’t good” Liam said.
He could feel his member already at alert. it’s a good thing it wasn’t that visible. Oh! Jasmine, what are you doing to me;; He thought.
The elevator opened and they both stepped out and just opposite it was the CEOs office. Liam opened the door and ushered her in.
Jasmine stared amused at how classy the office looks. She must admit he sure has a good taste.
“Like what you see?” Liam asked whispering into her ears.
Jasmine scoffed loudly moving away from him.
“It’s manageable!” She simply said making Liam chuckle.
He held her hand walking over to his sit. He sat down and pulled her to his lap. Jasmine gasped,,, She tried standing up, but he restricted her. She glared at him and tried standing up but he wouldn’t let her. Rather, he tightened his grip round her waist.
“Let me go!” She demanded.
“Why?”
“I can sit in the other chair!”
“But I want you here,, It’s more comfortable this way. Except you have a problem with that,, I can…” He trailed off picking up his phone.
Jasmine knew exactly what he meant… He’s always threatening her with the cops.. Damnit!!
She snatched the phone away from him, placing it back on the table.
“There’s no need for that” She said and Liam smirked.
“Now, that’s a good girl” Liam said while smiling.
Seconds passed with Jasmine feeling uneasy with each passing second. She suddenly felt hot even with the AC on. He just kept staring intensely at her. His eyes never leaving her face. She just let her eyes roam around the office, not looking at his direction.
What’s going on with me? Why do I allow him to do whatever he pleases. On a norm, I won’t let such happen. But with this weirdo cat, everything just happens at it’s will. My body reacts to his every touch;; Jasmine thought.
“Do I have something on my face?” Jasmine asked after a long while.
“Why Sweetheart, Why did you become a stripper?” Liam asked.
She hates talking about that nights mistake. Isn’t it embarrassing that he already saw her stripping like a slut? Gosh!!
“I just had to do it!” She said.
“The tears, you were crying sweetheart!”
Jasmine folded her lips. She couldn’t have thought anyone would notice her tears. No one did, not even Ms Amy. But Liam did,, he noticed her tears”.
“I wasn’t, There was no tears!” She said.
“You sulk at lieing sweetheart!”.
“It’s the truth, I’m sure you just imagined I had tears” She said.
Liam did respond,, He’s sure she’s lieing and there’s more to everything.
There was a slight knock on the door, after which, someone walked in. Jasmine tilted her head and she felt her throat run dry.
She stared at him and he stared right back. She felt anger erupt from her.
Liam cleared his throat and Martin quickly composed himself.
“Sir, these are the files. Everything is sorted out. The Agro company already signed with us” Martin said.
Liam, who noticed the awkward moment, snatched it and waved him off, signalling him to leave.
Martin stared at Jasmine, then zeroed to the position at which she was seated.
Liam banged the table and Martin quickly rushed out.
“You two know each other?” He asked and Jasmine nodded.
“My Ex!” Jasmine said.
“Any feelings left for him?”
“Not even an atom!” Jasmine said and Liam smiled.
“Any present boyfriend?” He asked again.
Jasmine smirked… “What if there is?”
“Then I’ll kill whoever it is… Because you belong to me” He said and Jasmine rolled her eyes.
Liam’s watch beeped… He quickly made Jasmine stand up.
“I have a meeting to attend to. Just feel relaxed sweetheart” He said and she sighed.
“There’s some movies saved on my system,, make use of it so you won’t get bored” He said.
He leaned down, placing a kiss on her cheeks before hurrying off.
A light smile appeared on her face as she touched her cheeks.
She cleared her throat as she leaned forward to the system when the door burst open.
It was Martin!
“He isn’t here” Jasmine said Immediately she Saw him.
“I’m not here for him Jasmine, I’m here for you. What happened years ago was a mistake. I regret what I did. I …”
“I don’t need your explanations,,, Just leave” She said cutting him off.
“You know I love you Jasmine… I’ll do..”
“Leave Martin or I’m gonna call Liam” She threatened. He gritted his teeth before storming out.
Jasmine glared at the door angrily. The sound of her phone ringing brought her attention back.
She picked…”Adam!”
“Jasmine! You… You need to come to the hospital Jasmine. Jace, he… he collapsed and he’s in a critical condition” Adam said panicking, before ending the call.
Tbc…
