chapter 22

Selina pant so heavily as she tried getting herself back. She couldn't believe it. She couldn't believe that she had almost lost her life in the cold hands of Derek who wanted to get rid of her at every course. It seems like she has to go strict on him. It's time for her to kill him just like she had killed Asher and after all, Derek was the murderer of Selina father, not only that but he killed the person who she currently switch body with and what made her think that he wouldn't do the Same thing to her? It that's what she thinks or sees him then she's currently lying because very soon he will kill her. What just happened should be able to tell her that he can kill her without feeling any remorse or feeling bad. That was his nature and she promise to kill him before he will do that to herself.
"This is just the beginning Selina! The next time you try to disobey me then I promise to kill you immediately".

Jasper was very worried about Selina's whereabouts. He was currently coming from her father's compound and was angry that he didn't see her. It was then he had remembered her Telling him that she will be staying at the hotel tonight and since then he hasn't been hearing from her so he decided to kill her.
She picked up immediately although he wasn't expecting it. He thought she might be Angry with him since she had been behaving differently for some time now. "Who's this and why are you calling me?" She was sounding so strange with her words as he decided to just overlook and introduce himself properly to her. Maybe she had forgotten all about him over the past few days.
"Don't you remember me anymore? I'm Jasper". Ohhhh! He could hear her groan over the phone as he smiled. "What are you doing Selina? I will love to see you today. Where are you?" He questioned awaiting her reply.
"Do you really have a dead wish? I did warn you to dress up and get ready because I will be taking you with me to the hospital". A voice roared over the phone as he remembered that voice. It was Derek own. What's she doing with him?
And for five seconds he didn't hear her reply Again as he sighed. "Please just tell me where you are Selina". He asked, wanting to know so he could find a way to meet her. And who's making that call with you? He heard the Same voice asking her again as he roared back at the person through the phone.
"Who are you to her?"" DEREK heard the familiar Voice over the phone as he dragged it from her hand then placed the phone on his ear. "What business do you have with Jasper?" Please try to stay away from her and never call her again. Understand?" And the reply he got was from Derek, his brother scolding him at the moment.
"But why are you........" Before he could speak up, he ended the call immediately. Jasper slumped the phone on the bed angrily as he ruffled his hair with his palm. He was just so angry with what just happened. What's Selina doing in a room with him? Why are they together? He couldn't help but think about it as he couldn't find a better explanation for that. Probably they could be dating or have an agreement together which he totally has no idea of. He couldn't help but keep thinking about why they must be together. Let it not be like it's what he's actually thinking. Anyway, it doesn't really concern him if she's staying with him to offer her body to him because he could remember everything she had uttered back then and find it hard to believe that, that could be the course of everything.

Noami was really worried about Asher. She haven't seen him for a while now as she thought that he's angry with her. Probably it could be that he learnt of her relationship with Derek which is the reason why he's trying to avoid her. But Naomi doubts it. That couldn't be the reason and in other to quench her doubt, she approached his mother and questions her about Asher whereabouts but the reply Ellie gave her made her speechless.
"I thought my son was with you!!" Ellie questions her after being asked and judging by her expression, she could tell that she absolutely has no idea of his whereabouts.
"No mother". I went to see my father yesterday while he came back home but he didn't call to let me know and till now I haven't heard from him which was the reason why I came here by myself to know if he was trying to avoid me". Noami explained as she sighed deeply.
"Gosh! I haven't seen him today". She said with a tired Voice as she closed her eyes trying to find her son through his scent but she couldn't feel his presence nor could she feel him. "Maybe he's somewhere far away! Probably looking for an answer to a question! You know his type of person right? That's what he's always like so I will assure you to be patient and wait for him to call you". And on thinking about it, she does have a point in her statement. It's better she should be patient and await his call just like her mother had said but she doesn't know why she's having this feeling that something must be wrong with him. That was really unlike the Asher she knew back then.
"Take care of yourself Mother! I will take my leave now".
****
Addison was scared. Although she tried resisting those fears in her heart, she couldn't. All she wish for was to go back to that fucking hotel again and see whether Asher was still alive. no wait, there's no way she could tell if he's alive because in either way he wouldn't be at the hotel anymore. Not after being threatened by her.
