Chapter 125

Jennifer

Romeo walked Bruce out, promising him to make the payment right away. I couldn’t believe Bruce will just leave without making sure he got paid for the ring first I mean yes sure Romeo was good for it but still I won’t trust people like that not when it comes to my business. I sat on the chair admiring my ring it was absolutely stunning and it was rear he told us you don’t often see a pink diamond like the one that was at the moment on my finger. I couldn’t take my eyes of it. Luckily, I did for a while because we needed to choose Romeo’s ring as well as well as my wedding band which was just as beautiful, a small band with a lot of small pink diamonds right around the ring. It cost Romeo and arm and a leg but he assured me he wanted it for me. Like I said he can afford it but it doesn’t mean because you can afford something you need to buy it. Well, that is how I felt. Romeo was taking a bit longer than I thought so I got up slowly and walked back to the living room I needed to lie down and although he had a couch in the office it wasn’t nearly as comfortable as the one in the living room. I just got myself comfortable when I heard him calling out to me “Jenn where are you?” there was a bit of fear in his voice, I had to answer him quickly. “In the living room Romeo.” When he walked into the living room, he wasn’t alone Dr. Jacobs was with him. “See doc I told you.” He said to Dr Jacobs. “Hi Doctor.” I said but not getting up at all. “Hi Jenn.” He said as he walked closer to me with his doctor’s bag. He put his hand to my forehead real old school. “No fever. Tell me what’s going on Jenn.” “I don’t know doctor I’m just very tired, my head is killing me and I don’t feel like eating. I know being tired is a sign of the concussion.” “Yes, it is.” “But not waking up? What is that about?” Romeo asked the doctor. “Let’s see shall we.” He took out his little torch and looked into my eyes and made me follow his finger, I did everything he said I should. He checked my blood pressure which was a bit low and then took my temperature which was normal. “It’s clear it’s all still the concussion although I am worried that you didn’t wake up Jenn.” I wanted to tell him I’m not going back to the hospital when he put his hand up, he knew what I wanted to say “But you don’t need to go back to the hospital just yet, if it happens again then you take her to the hospital Romeo even if she wakes up and screams at you you take her.” “Okay doc I will.” He said with a lot of force.

The doctor left me more or should I say stronger pain meds and told me I should try to eat at least or else I will end up in hospital, that part he whispered to me when he left clearly, he knew Romeo will go crazy if he heard him then he left. Romeo walked him out and I laid down again.

When I got back from walking the doctor to the door, Jenn was sleeping again. I was really worried about her but according to Dr. Jacobs I just need to let her heal. He wasn’t here when she didn’t want to wake up, I’m sure he would have been just as scared as I was if it was his wife. I walked to her kissed her on the forehead and covered her with the throw that was lying at her feet. I looked at her for a few minutes realizing I need to tell her I love her. I never thought I would ever love a woman again but here I am madly in love with her and I realized I would never forgive myself if something happens to her and I haven’t told her how I felt.

I got back to my office and quickly made the payment to Bruce for the rings. I was so happy with the choses we made, I’m sure if Jenn saw the price of that ring, she wouldn’t have chosen it but that is why I told him we will not speak prices in front of Jenn. I sat back in my chair thinking of something I can do for Jennifer I haven’t done anything romantic for her when I asked her to marry me, I mean in the beginning it was just an arrangement but know it’s so much more. I decided to make a lunch reservation at Top of the World STRAT Hotel, Casino and Towers Restaurant, the dinning room revolves 360 degrees every 80 minutes. I’m sure Jenn will love it and because she’s not well yet a lunch wouldn’t be that exhausting.

There was a knock on my door, Lucas open the door and walked in. “What’s wrong Lucas?” “We have a problem.” “Can’t you just walk in and give me good news?” “Sorry boss.” “Lay it on me.” “The Richie’s is refusing to pay back the money they borrowed from you.” “You know what to do Lucas why come to me with this?” “He wants to speak to you.” “Why? It’s not like I’m going to tell them they don’t have to pay me back.” “I know boss but I felt I needed to bring this to you before we take further steps.” “No need you and the guys take the steps you need to and tell him the interest just went up as well.” “I already boss.” “Well, it just went up again, who does he think he is summonsing me to come to him. Fuck him.” “We’ll go tonight boss.” “Anyone else?” “No boss just the Richie’s.” “Let me know when it’s taken care off.” When Lucas left my office, I went to check on Jenn, she was still sleeping, I checked to make sure she was still breathing then I went to the kitchen to ask Luna to make Jenn some soup. Then I walked back to Jenn to wake her up. I was getting nervous what if she doesn’t wake up at all this time?
