Chapter 63: Who exactly are you?
"Is this a joke?" Jazmine Harrison was lost. He looked completely serious; he didn't look like he was joking.
Sebastian Crowne didn't reply. His amused eyes looked at her. He pointed at her leg. "We need to get that fixed first." He leaned forward. With a swift, light movement, he picked her up.
Jazmine Harrison's face filled with utter disbelief. "What are you doing?" With the close proximity, her face was inches away from his. Moreover, his shirt was still not buttoned. She could feel his body heat through the thin cloth of his shirt. She could even feel his steady heartbeats. She felt like she was going to have a heart attack.
"Put me down!"
Sebastian Crowne looked at her in confusion; he had already started walking for the elevator. "Can you walk on your own?"
"Yes!"
Sebastian Crowne slowly put her back onto her feet. His arm stayed around her waist in case she stumbled. Once free, Jazmine quickly pushed him away and pressed herself against the corner of the elevator.
Sebastian Crowne's eyes filled with mirth. She was acting like a feisty, scared cat. He felt a sudden urge to pat her. But he had to restrain himself. This cat might claw at him or bare its teeth at him.
"Where are you taking me?" Jazmine asked when he pushed the button for the highest floor of the building.
"To my apartment." He stayed silent for a moment before explaining. "I've invited some friends. Your wound might get an infection if not tended properly."
"There is no need, really. Just get me my phone. I'll leave," Jazmine waved her hands in protest. She didn't want to be an inconvenience.
