"Hey... been a while." Jessie said as she answered the phone.
"Yeah.... um... you don't hang out with George Lee anymore do you?" Lenora asked.
"No... he went crazy yesterday and he tried to hurt me so, no I'm not hanging with him anymore." Jessie sighed.
The line was quiet for a bit then she spoke again. "Is that all it's going to be? That's it?"
Jessie huffed. "Of course not. I just need to approach from another angle, I can't go anywhere close to George anymore." She said.
"And Patricia?"
"Why are you asking me all of this questions?" Jessie asked. "Did you find something? Is that what this is about?"
"Don't get too excited Jessie, I was only wondering, we are a team remember? You've been awfully silent."
"Well, I have been awfully occupied."
"You do understand that not only your life depends on this right? Don't make me regret choosing to side with you." Lenora stated.
"And you would have sided with who? Patricia?"
"It was always an option."
"Look I can't do this with you right now Lenora. What do you want to hear? I was almost raped for nothing? What?"
"I am not falling for that, just be reminded it is not all about you. My boyfriend is also paying for the fight between you and Patricia, keep that at the back of you mind." She said.
Jessie shut her eyes and struggled to control herself. What more could she have done?
"Whatever, I understand. Goodbye."
Frowning at her phone she looked up at the cars in Jason's garage, contemplating which one to take. "Miss Marin." A gruff familiar voice called out behind her.
Jessie turned around to see Sebastian. "Oh hello, I want to go out would you recommend a car?"

"You are planning on taking company right?" He asked.
Jessie smiled, "if you want to tag along just say so. I'll let you come with me." She laughed, enjoying the bodyguards obvious discomfort.
"Where are we headed?" He asked as he lead her to the jeep.
Helping her get in she showed him the address and he nodded. Getting into the drivers seat they set out.
**************************************************
Karen watched her sister pretend not to smile as they heard Jonathan's car pull up in the drive way. "What's he doing here again?" She groaned.
"I know right, he only comes here everyday of the week to check on you after the surgery he advised you to have, and mind you that he paid for. You know he just didn't advise you to have it in time saving your life and has been kind enough to bring food each time he comes. Just why is he here again?" Karen replied, looking straight into her sister eyes.
Krystal returned her pointed look. "You must think you are funny." She said.
Karen shrugged "and you must think you are not in love with your boss."
"Krystal yuck! Don't say that, he's like way too old for me!"
"Really? Was that the best you could come up with? Too old? Didn't you have a crush on Paul Song who is like 30?"
"He's 29!"
"And your boss is 26." Karen reminded her bluntly.
"Hey ladies." Jonathan smiled as he walked into the room, and unfailingly holding packages that Karen would bet her soul on were food.
"Hey Jonathan."
"Hey boss!" The two sisters chorused.
"I'll go get plates...." Karen said getting up and leaving the room but not before winking at her sister.
"You know you don't have to come here everyday right?"

"How else would you eat?" Jonathan laughed.
"Uh... there's something called a delivery system?"
"I believe what you should be saying is thank you so much Jonathan, how would I survive without you?"
"Oh... I didn't realise you were so cheeky." Krystal huffed.
Jonathan sat on the couch besides her and pinched her cheeks. "There a lot you do not know about me."
Krystal laughed, "really like what?"
"Well for one, I got you this. I know how badly you wanted to go with Karen" he said pulling out tickets, Krystal collected it from him and looked at what it was.
"This are tickets to Daniel's concert, but they are sold out." Krystal said in a daze, looking at the tickets in shock. Her chest began to do that thing it did when she was around something she liked.
"Hmmm... well, I'm a millionaire and the COO at a very influential company. People listen when I speak." He shrugged.
Krystal stared at him unblinking, tears pooling in her big bright eyes. "Oh my Jonathan, I don't know what to say."
"Say you'll recover by then, go to the concert and come back to the office. It's not the same without you."
Krystal shook her head, "you saved my life, fixed the relationship between Karen and I, now this? How are you so nice?"
"Genes?" He leaned towards her.
"That can't be right, you're Jason's brother. It's not genetics." She laughed, leaning forward as well.
"My mother is the nicest woman I know. It could be from her, and cut Jason some slack he was raised by a real douche bag." The both laughed, then it settled and they were left staring at each other, the distance between them closer than each other them realized.
Krystal's eyes lowered to lips for the tiniest moment before going back up, and just as he leaned forward to cover the space his phone rang.
"That was..."
"Jessie?"
"Yeah, I should go catch you later." He said walking out.
"What were you saying about not liking Jonathan?" Karen asked from behind Krystal.
"Shut up, Karen" Krystal replied.
"Are you okay? He was out of here pretty fast."
"I don't even what to ask why you were watching that private moment, but no, no I'm not okay I fell horrible."
"Oh Krystal, he likes you he doesn't just realise it yet."
"No, that's not the reason. I'm a horrible person, for a second I wished Jessie Marin was actually dead, or a real murderer or something bad. Even if he likes me he likes her so much and I can't even blame him, how do I compete with a goddess?" Krystal frowned.
"Honestly I don't know what to say actually. But do not wish I'll on my Jessie."
"On your Jessie? This brat, do you not have any solidarity for your sister? How can you side with Jessie right now? She doesn't even like him back!"
"Uh... you just said so, do not try to compete with actually fucking Jessie Marin. Besides you should be thankful it's not reciprocated, but I am happy for you. Finally you get to have a real boyfriend and not one you stalked and wasted money on." Karen stated getting up.
"You wasted money as well!"
"Well you are the adult in this relationship so, take responsibility. And just so you know I ship you and Jonathan so bad... if wishes were horses, I would have three nieces and nephews by now. Bye!"
"Hey!"
