Chapter 51: Lies of Love
Jasmine had just taken a couple of steps forward when she heard the screams of Dan from behind, he fell onto his knees as hot coffee fell all over his face and pieces of the glass penetrated into his face and shoulder.
" Ahhh Someone help me ughhhh It hurts Fuck, who did it? Damn it bring me to the hospital. "
Dan kept screaming as he rolled on the ground. A few of the pieces of the glasses had gone a little deep into his skin, and now his clothes were painted in red.
Some of his female bodyguards put him into the car and rushed towards the hospital, while the others tried to find the location of the attacker.
Jasmine\'s steps halted, she instantly glanced up at the window on the twelfth floor but Lucian had already stepped back he had not expected for the cup to actually hit the target, he was just angry at his luck.
With her senses, Jasmine knew for sure that Lucian was the one to throw that cup but she couldn\'t understand why he did that, so without moving away from there she took her mobile out and opened the \'Find My Love\' application.
It had been helping her quite a lot and now she was able to spend some time together with him, then she filled in the info about the recent incident and the application asked a few questions in return after which it gave out the result.
(DING!!! congratulations, you have gotten one step more closer to becoming close to your man. If he really acted in such a violent way after seeing you with another man then it was obvious that... he was jealous.
In simple terms it\'s a feeling where you don\'t want your loved one to see with anyone of the opposite gender. I\'m sure you have experienced that feeling at least once yourself.)
Jasmine read the results and again glanced at the window but he was nowhere to be seen. She also did not feel good if Lucian gets closer to other women and her inner voice tells her to just kill that person though she has been holding back till now.
" Damn, that was... awesome. Did you see how it hit him? Was it the result of my prayer or am I just that talented? " Lucian spoke looking at his hands in awe.
[ Why don\'t you check out by praying for something else? Also you know, this could bring trouble to you and Jasmine, right? ]
Shrugging his shoulder Lucian stepped closer to the window again and looked down, Jasmine was still standing there and seemed deep in thought, then he turned around and closed his eyes praying:
" Please, please surround me with happiness. "
Then he opened his eyes but nothing happened, so he mumbled: " I guess I am just that talented then. "
He looked down the window again but Jasmine was not there, then he decided to go to gym but just as he opened the door to his room, he found Jasmine standing there.
" What are yo- "
Before he could speak, she gave him a tight hug, embracing him with her soft body then taking in a deep breath she inhaled his scent, as if she had just smelled something very bad and was now trying to replace it with his scent.
After staying like that for a few seconds she let go of him and walked away without saying anything.
"..."
[ Wow, your prayers do work. Why don\'t you you ask something good for me then? ]
"..."

It was night, Lucian worked on his computer for some time and then got ready to sleep, hoping that Jasmine wouldn\'t come but soon he was standing face to face with her.
She was holding a fruit basket and then she put it away on the table after which she just sat down on the bed, while keeping her gaze fixed on him.
" Is this for me? " Lucian asked and picked up an apple from the basket, but just as he took a bite from it she spoke:
" No, those are rotten, I was planning to throw them away. "
" COUGH COUGH What?!! " Lucian threw it away and looked at her, feeling as if he was about to vomit.
" I... was joking. " Jasmine spoke, her face looked like a doll, beautiful and emotionless.
" That was a joke? Ha haha " Wiping his face he put the apple away and decided to just go to sleep, whenever Jasmine came into the room, it smelled as if the room was filled with countless flowers.
Her scent and beauty always made Lucian uncomfortable since it was hard for him to hold back but today it was not as bad since he did it with Scarlett during the day.
Lucian climbed onto the bed and just as he was about to lie down, Jasmine interrupted him:
" Let\'s watch a movie together. "
" But I am sleepy, let\'s do it some other time. " Lucian instantly refused, this must be some new kind of idea that she had gotten.
" It won\'t take long. " But it seemed Jasmine was not going to take no for an answer.
" Is it really necessary? We don\'t even have a TV. " Lucian spoke.
" Yes, it is. " She replied and then turned her gaze towards the computer screen placed some distance away from the bed.
" Fine " Lucian sighed and agreed.
Then for the next two and a half hours, Lucian sat on the bed like a zombie beside Jasmine who stared at the screen intently, they were watching a romantic movie named: \'Love of Lies.\'
Maybe because Lucian had seen things much better than these but he found the story completely shit, and he couldn\'t even sleep because of Jasmine sitting so close to him.
\' I have never seen a movie as shitty as that. \' he thought, the summary of the movie:
A boy let\'s say B and a girl let\'s say G, were in love and about to marry but B found out that he had terminal cancer and there was little chance of him surviving.
When he tells this news to G she is heartbroken and even stops eating, so B lies to her that he is fine and the doctor swapped the report accidentally.
And then comes the twist as the doctor had actually swapped the reports, and then he tells this news to B who is overjoyed but then comes another twist which tells that the doctor\'s assistant had swapped back the reports so B was indeed going to die.
But then B finds out that the assistant was a fraud and he used to make wrong reports, so he was going to survive. But in the end, B died from a bullet in his chest while protecting G during a robbery.
This was supposed to be a sad love story, but Lucian watched this all while questioning every scene in it and Jasmine showed zero emotion throughout the movie.
