A night with Mr Arrogant (episode 37)

Episode 37

” Let’s not rush into anything for now, buddy” I said.

“No problem, I can wait” he said.

I turn to him, he winks at me.

I shake my head.

“Anyway, I have lots of work to do, I’ll call you later” I said.

I can’t let him know I’m having dinner with Jackson, right?.

“Okay. I’ll wait to hear your voice later” he said..

I open the door and step out, I wave him good bye until his car is out of sight.

I hurried inside the compound and head towards the main door. I can quickly get ready before Jackson gets back from the office.

I step into the living room and head upstairs, but a voice stops me.

“Did you have fun?” Mirabel?.

I turn around slowly, like how it’s done in the movies. Lol.

I saw Jackson standing with his hands tucked in his pockets, he’s glaring daggers at me, well my bare shoulder to be precise.

Paul is standing next to him, shaking in fear.

Paul is holding a small box in his hands. Hmm. I wonder what’s inside the box.

I laugh nervously.

“Jackson, you’re home early” I said.

He narrows his eyes.

“Where are you coming from?” He asked.

Uh-oh. I’m not sure he’s gonna let this go.

” Where are you coming from?” he asked again.

I hesitate, and bites my lips. 

His eyes flick to my lips and lingers there for a minute, he should be the one biting those lips

He shake the thought from his head.

“I went out to have lunch” I said.

His eyes move to my bare shoulders, her tan skin glittering.

Then he realized that other guys must have been staring at her like he's doing right now.

“You went out dressed like this?” he asked through gritt teeth.

Right from my childhood everything that I had were taken from me, so I made a vow to myself that I will never let that happen ever again, Jackson said in a very low tune.

So he won’t give any guy chance to take Mirabel.

“I…. I…” I’m short of words.

I don’t know why I feel guilty every time I do something that Jackson doesn’t approve of. I always feel like I owe him an explanation.
