Mission XX: Seducing The Great Seducer

"How could Jeff seduce you under such circumstances? How dare he taint my innocent Cat? I will surely beat him to death when I set my eyes on him," Jasmine said as she arranged Catherine slightly messing hair.

"Jasmine, it wasn't his fault and he didn't force himself on me so why would you want to beat him to death...,"

"You are even defending him. Where did the Cat who treated him so coldly go to? Don't tell me you both are a couple now after what happened?" Jasmine asked curiously.

"Jasmine, what are you saying? Of course not? Do all the men and women who have sex become a couple? No, right so why should our case be different?" Catherine asked sternly.

"Are you saying that you don't like him and will not accept his proposal if he asks you to become his girlfriend again?" Jasmine asked anxiously.

"I won't...,"

"Ooh... so that means he didn't satisfy you enough yesterday. All men I know are quite attractive when they take their clothes off, I also thought Pretty boy will be no different but seeing the expression on your face I guess I was wrong. This makes me want to see how terrible he looks with clothes off for you not to have liked him, his body or the intimacy that took place between the two of you. I want to have a feel of his bare body....,"

"Jasmine!" Catherine shouted disrupting Jasmine's words.

"I thought since you don't like him that I can have him but why does it look like you want to bite me?" Jasmine asked playfully.

"Jasmine, no teasing and no joking ok?" Catherine said. Although Jasmine was trying her best to joke so that she won't make Catherine worried, Catherine saw through her eyes that Jasmine wasn't her real self.

"How was the meeting? Did it go well?" Catherine added in a serious tone.

"You don't only reek of sweat but I can smell love over you so go take a shower and fill your empty tummy up. I am sure you must be exhausted from those rigorous exercises you both did last night...,"

"Jasmine! I said no teasing," Catherine said in a firm tone.

"If you don't want me to tease you then go in there, freshen up and change into something sexy. You don't want him to come back later and see you reeking of his love," Jasmine teased as she smiled.

"If you don't want to tell me what happened back at home then say it and stop teasing me just to evade the question," Catherine said as she stood up from the couch.

"I will tell you what happened but first shower and come downstairs for your meal. I will have the chef prepare your favourite delicacies," Jasmine said when Catherine was almost at the stairs.

"I am so happy to see this cute side of hers. I never knew that their relationship will progress so fast. With the speed it is going then I am sure that I will attend my Cat's wedding soon if Jeff works a little harder," Jasmine mumbled after Catherine was out of sight.

Back in Jackson's mansion, Jackson wasn't his real self. Lilian and everyone could see that. The way he can't take his eyes off his cellphone showed that he was expecting an important call. When that call did not come until late in the afternoon, he became so restless. When it was almost time for dinner, he sat at the porch staring at the long pathway every car entering his mansion must pass through. It was at this time Lilian walked up to him.

"Boss, Miss Jane called to find out whether you are around. What response should I give her? She said she has a gift from the Madam for you so I believe she wants to come over to the mansion," Lilian said in a calm tone. She did not forget to keep a safe distance from her boss in case he wants to throw something. She did not want to be the unlucky one who gets blinded or seriously injured by her angry boss.

"To hell with the gift," the Angry Jackson said not taking his eyes off the road.

"Tell her that I travelled out of town or even worse that I am out of the country...,"

"But boss I think she knows that you are at the mansion," Lilian said in a calm tone.

"Then do everything within your power to make sure she doesn't set foot in my house. I am not in the mood to see anyone...,"

"Including Miss Jasmine?" Lilian blurted out without thinking. She felt like slapping her lips when she saw Jackson murderous glance directed at her.

"She is an exception. Apart from her, nobody must enter my mansion today. If I set my eyes on anyone apart from her then I will make sure you experience hell on earth today," Jackson said coldly. The manner in which he talked sent shivers down her spine. She did not wait for Jackson to say another word before she hurried away in fear.

Miss Jasmine, please where are you? If you don't want to come back and find us dead then please have mercy on us. Just a phone call from you will be able to perform the magic.

Lilian thought as she approached where the mansion's phone was fixed. Being a very experienced person, she talked to Jane in a polite tone. Even though she kept on ranting and even insulted her, she did not care. As long as she can accomplish the task her boss gave her, that was enough.

Jackson picked up his broken screen cellphone and press the dial button. The phone rang repeatedly but there was no response from the other end. Just when he wanted to give up hope on talking to her today, someone answered the call.

"Hey, Ice Prince why do you keep on calling me?" These were the words that greeted the worried Jackson.

"Are you coming over tonight?" Jackson asked nervously. While waiting for her, he bit his lower lips.
