Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Famous J Tim
Jasmine carefully applied her eye shadows as she prepared for work or rather, to receive her punishment.
She will be working in the Elm group for today and honestly, she was looking forward to walking into the multinational company owned by the infamous Kingsley Elm.
She was In a great mood, probably because she was also aware of the next agenda with the shareholder in Jack’s company.
She was looking forward to that too.
Jasmine winked at herself in the mirror, satisfied with her generous makeup that made her look extra pretty.
She was wearing a blue tank top and a black high-waist skirt that accentuated her curvy nature. Her hair was tied to a ponytail and she added silver pins on the tail of the hair.
Her makeup was modest and her shoes were black, matching her outfit. Showing how ruthless her agenda for today was going to be.
With that done, she grabbed her handbag from the dressing table and moved out of her room.
She slowly walked towards the living room area to go grab something to eat before leaving with kingsley.
But unexpectedly, Kingsley was already at the table, waiting for her. His broad back was turned to her as he kept drinking tea from his mug while reading a file.
Jasmine slowed her steps as she came towards the dining area. Kingsley didn’t raise his head to look at her as she dragged out a chair to sit.
"Good morning." Jasmine greeted to announce her presence but kingsley only hummed at her without saying any more word to her. He didn’t bother to look at her.
Jasmine didn’t linger on that as she focused on the meal before her, she started to help herself with some food.
As she started ditching out her food, she figured that there were no apples on the table. Her eyes moved around as she tried to look for Mrs Jenkins but couldn’t find her.
Kingsley observed her movements without even looking at her, he knew what she was looking for.
Still reading, Kingsley uttered."Looking for Mrs Jenkins? Well, she’ll be away for the next few days."
Hearing that, Jasmine’s eyes widened a little in surprise before asking. "Is she alright?" Concern was evident in her voice as she questioned him.
Taking another sip from his mug, Kingsley responded as he dropped the cup on the table. "She is alright. Her husband fell ill so she had to go assist him in the hospital."
"When did she leave?" Jasmine asked again.
"Last night before I went to get you from the claws of another man." He responded, sarcasm dripping from his words. He said those words with a straight face without looking at her.
Jasmine pursed her lips a little before asking again. "Then who made the meal?" She asked skeptically and then,kingsley dropped the file on the table and said coolly.
"I did." He said as a matter of fact, making Jasmine almost choke on her saliva.
"You cooked?" She gushed out in surprise and Kingsley only snorted at her.
"A simple thank you would have done the trick." He emphasized before getting out of there, leaving Jasmine to herself.
Jasmine hummed In admiration as she stared at the mouth-watery dishes in awe. She was amazed because she was a bad cook who couldn’t handle even a knife.
She silently used her cutlery to pick the meat and ate it slowly. She tried to savor the taste if the food was edible.
"Mhm" her eyes popped out in excitement as she was impressed by the taste of the food. It tasted so good that she started to dig into the food.
Kingsley who was standing in the living room kept looking at her as she ate, humming along in appreciation.
A satisfied smile formed on his face as he stared at her. Just looking at how she appreciated his cooking skills by devouring almost everything left, he couldn’t help but think Mrs Jenkins should stay away for a long time.
He made a mental note to prepare another meal for her later when they came back from work.
"You are such a great cook, Mr Elm. I envy you." Jasmine shouted from the dining room, making kingsley frown.
His frown deepened even more as he growled. "Mr Elm?"
Jasmine quickly realized what she had said and she corrected herself. "I mean, husband." Before kingsley could respond, some noise followed, catching their attention as they looked towards the door.
"He asked for the latest piece, this is my work, don’t tell me what to do." A man snapped as he walked into the living room, Kingsley’s and Jasmine’s eyes fell on him.
Raymond also entered while countering the earlier man’s words. "But you have another piece you could have brought too."
They both argued as they entered the living room, unaware of their intrusion.
Kingsley frowned when he saw them. "What’s the fuss about?" His words made the two men immediately shut their mouths as they stopped bickering.
Raymond and the other man were carrying three big boxes as they stood close to the doorway. They didn’t realize Someone else was in the room.
"Good morning, Boss Elm." Raymond and the other man greeted. They respected Kingsley who was looking at them with sharp gazes, obviously displeased by them banging in on his conversation with Jasmine.
Meanwhile, Jasmine was just gawking at the particular man standing close to Raymond and Kingsley.
She blinked several times to check if she was having an illusion but he was still there.
The man was dressed in a few pieces of clothes, he was wearing a black tailored trouser and a net shirt that looked a little torn in different spots. He was wearing a black leather shoe too and his hair was curly. His fashion sense was top-notch.
Kingsley eyed them before turning to face Jasmine. "Wifey." He called out to her, making Jasmine snap out of her thoughts and stop looking at the man.
At that moment did the other men realize that Jasmine was actually in the room. Raymond and this fashionista greeted Jasmine who smiled broadly at them.
Kingsley glared at the two of them before turning to face Jasmine who was seemingly mesmerized by the sight of Jones.
"Jones here came with a few dresses,choose anyone of your choice so you can wear to have dinner with my grandpa tonight. You can’t miss this dinner like yesterday." He said to her as he gestured for her to come near.
Jasmine stood close to kingsley as she watched "J Tim" who kingsley was referring to as ’Jones’ start to unpack his boxes.
She couldn’t believe she would be getting dresses from J Tim, the country’s most popular and wealthy brand owner. He has won so many awards in different fashion shows.
Jasmine was elated when J Tim smiled widely at her and told her. "Mrs Elm, trust me when I say I tailored all these dresses for you and you would love every piece."
Jasmine nodded. "I trust that’s the case, I mean,you are very great at what you do. I’m so honored to have a tailored dress from you."
J Tim quickly waved his hands in the air as if dismissing her words. "No, I am honoured to make a dress for Mrs. Elm."
As their conversation continued, Jasmine didn’t realize how the man standing close to her was fuming, almost breathing fire through his nostrils. His eyes boring a hole on them as his heart was clouded with...jealous!!
