Chapter 73 Toxic Ex-Boyfriend
"What are you doing hanging around
My phone??" Kingsley scowled as he walked into the room. He had gone out to make a quick phone call with Raymond earlier.
Raymond was back from the wedding but on getting home, he got the news that his sick mother died at the hospital. Raymond had called him to tell him about it....
His other phone was lying on the table ,in the room where he left Vanessa Thomas. After the call with Raymond, Kingsley remained outside, his mind reeling from the news.
Raymond’s mother wasn’t the best woman he had encountered in his life but he respected her because her husband worked alongside his father. And he also values Raymond who was his secretary. The loss of his mother would break Raymond, that was certain.
He gave Raymond a few days off. Afterwards, he tried to dial Jasmine’s number but it was being directed to voicemail. So instead, he called Mrs Jenkins who informed him that Jasmine was probably asleep since she hadn’t left her room since they came back from Chicago.
Kingsley knew he screwed up so he decided to call a bakery home to make chocolate cakes for Jasmine. And also, asked J-Tim to send one of his best designer dresses over to the house as compensation for canceling their vacation.
’By tomorrow, I’ll explain things to her.’ Kingsley thought to himself before making his way into the room where Vanessa was.
Oblivious that Jasmine had called his other line and Vanessa answered the call.
The first thing he observed was how his phone was in a different position from where he left it. Also, Vanessa suddenly rode her wheelchair towards the couch he sat on earlier.
Made him think she was hanging around his phone.
