Sold? Oh Please. Chapter 99

Jessie struggled with her conscience through out the meal. And to make matters worse, the most uncomfortable silence rested in the room, and she had no idea what to say to fix her mistake. And Jason wasn't helping the situation at all, he stared at his plate without once looking up, from time to time he would check his phone but other that he didn't say anything. After rectifying her mistake with Butler Choi, she wasn't sure he would believe she wasn't Jessie Marin but at least she tried. She informed him that the staff should refer to her as miss, and nothing else. She couldn't be Jessie Marin and definitely wouldn't be Yoo Aera.
"I have business to attend to, see you later." Jason said curtly getting up and leaving.
Jessie stared in disbelief, was he really that mad? What was she supposed to do now? After she was done eating she headed to her room to freshen up, thankfully it was on the same floor. She gasped as she walked in, they didn't go into any of the rooms during the tour only the major ones, but this room was just like hers, when she was... before... well.
The walls were still the same shade of grey and her sheets were a brilliant purple just like in her original room. The vanity, the couch and bean bag. She immediately took of her shoes eager to see if the carpet felt the same way, she released a soft groan immediately her feet touched it. It felt like heaven, just like hers, maybe even better.
Just like that she back, in her old room in her old life. Talking to her Tony about firing her current stylist, or discussing scenes over the phone with a co-star. Maybe even her favourite past time, reading a good book. As her feet carried her along, her fingers refreshed her memory. As she trailed them along everything, the bed, the dresser, the furniture and the arrangement. They found the handle to the walk in closet and as she stepped in the spell broke. Her golden stilettos weren't there, neither was her wardrobe of different clothes, her favourite outfit from different sets. And she was back to reality, a stray tear fell from her cheek and she ran out of the room. Bumping into a hard body as soon as she dashed out of her room.

"Woah there."
Jessie looked up at the person that stopped her, "I'm sorry, are you okay?" She asked.
He chuckled, "I should be asking you that, you're the one with tears in your eyes, are you okay miss?"
"I-I don't... who are you?"
"Oh mind my manners, I'm Kevin your personal bodyguard." He stated firmly.
Jessie stepped back out of his hold and he let her go. She eyed his outfit and his appearance. "What about you mic thing?" She pointed to her ear.
"Oh that? I don't have to wear that. Is there something you need? Are you okay? You ran out of there pretty quickly, no way! Did you see something or someone?" He asked already moving to the room.
"No, no" she stopped him. "I... it's a long story never mind. And I'm sorry to inform you but I don't need a bodyguard." She shook her head.
"Of course, I don't have to be your bodyguard anything you need." He smiled.
"What makes you think I need anything? Jason told you to follow me around didn't he? Does he think I'll run away? I don't even know where I am, besides I came willingly." She frowned.
"Nothing of the sort miss, he's just concerned about you. And I have a feeling you need company it is a big house and the boss isn't going to be back anytime soon." Kevin replied.
"Really? He's gone to work?" Kevin nodded. "Hmm, I guess that's understandable, he is the chairman now." She said rubbing her neck.
"Yes, and I'm here to keep you company. So why don't you freshen up and do something fun."
She scoffed "I'm not a child and I'm not going back into that room."
"Of course you're not, and is the room not to your liking? CEO Kang was so sure you'll be satisfied with it. Infact he kept saying he couldn't wait for you to see the room, don't tell him I told you."

"Jason did that?"
Kevin nodded "he was very insistent about the design of your room, it was the only room in the manor he was interested in."
If Jessie wasn't guilty before she definitely was right now. "Where is Jason now?" She asked.
"He went to work."
"Take me there, take me there right now." She said.
"But mi-"
"Didn't you say Jason ordered you to be anything I need?" She asked.
"Well not in those words."
"Well I don't care, take me to Jason right now."
"Uh... how about you freshen up first" he gestured to her room in attempt to distract her.
Jessie stared at the door in reluctance, "where is Jason's room?"
**************************************************
"What do you mean by this was a mistake? Wait a minute, is this because of gossip Gretha?" Lenora asked.
"Why do you call her that?" Jamie sighed.
"Gossip Gretha? Well because she's a two faced coward that prefers to talk behind people's back why?" She pouted.
"So? That's not very nice."
"So that's why? Because of her? You saying this was a mistake? Do you like her? How nice" she spat.
Jamie rolled his eyes, typical of Lenora to get overwhelmed with her own opinions and conclusions. How she managed this trait while being a reporter he wondered. "It's not because of her, all I'm saying is it wouldn't kill you two get along."
"Pfft, I don't want to. And if you think you can start something and not finish it your grossly mistaken sir." She warned.
"Me? Start? You were the one that kissed me." He huffed.
"And so, I wasn't the person sticking my hands in someone else's clothes, what did you think was going to happen?" She spat back.
Jamie chuckled, "oh I see it's my fault? Who asked you to moan like that?"
"Who asked you to make me moan like that?! Hmm, hmm?"
"Look here miss, take responsibility for your own body." He scolded her.
Lenora's jaw dropped, "I can't believe you just said that, who told you my body is mine? It belongs to you." She stated matter of factly.
Jamie stared at her and smiled. "Really?"
"Em." She nodded. "And you definitely cannot leave me all hot and bothered. Especially when your having a bad day, don't push me away Jamie. I need you just as much as you need me." She said, he would never say it himself, and she knew that. He had a bad habit of pushing everything away, as if he didn't have a right to be angry or sad. To feel happy, but she was here and she was going to make sure he felt everything he needed to. That was the reason he fell for her the first time, she had a talent to sense even the slightest emotion, and feel them for him.
"Don't you have work?" He asked.
"I don't care about work, I care about you." She said bluntly before she could realise. Infact she didn't realise what she said until she saw Jamie reaction.
"I-I ..." She stammered.
"It's okay," he laughed. "That, that's okay for now. Don't worry I'll wait. I won't go anywhere, call me when you get off work." He said. "See you later."
Lenora smiled and nodded. And he walked away. Did she just give up work for him? And the most surprising thing is that she really meant what she said. Wow.
