She thought he could flirt

Chapter twenty two

He took the address and on his way there, he tried to think of why he was going to her, but there was no reason.

He just wanted to see her.

Jasmine laughed at France who was squealing for the millionth time as she stared at the diamond ring on her finger. They were sitting with Hayley and Ella in Ella’s bedroom since Ella invited them for lunch.

“He then knelt down on one knee and proposed, right after we made love. And he looked so sexy kneeling there with his jeans on and I couldn’t help but scream YES!” France told them again and Jasmine was still grinning cheekily.

“I can’t believe you guys got married there. you didn’t even tell me” she faked being hurt but her best friend saw right through her,” you know we meant nothing bad”

Jasmine rolled her eyes and smiled. Hayley was grinning,” so you’re happy being pregnant?”

“It’s kind of weird knowing I won’t have a way out if I want to. But I don’t want a way out, I love him”

Jasmine watched her best friend acting happy and even though she was genuinely happy, jealousy was still lurking behind its dark soul. She wished Martin was the one who proposed to her and she was the one showing them her ring but things never happen when you want them.

“how did Zack react with Noah back?” Jasmine asked, trying to change the subject. As selfish as it sounds,

Ella hummed for a second as she rested her hands on her thighs

“He was okay, surprisingly he truly was. I was happy he trusted me like that”

“Like that? He didn’t make a mistake, did he?” Hayley asked frowning, Ella laughed and said,” of course not! It just reminded me of how he was when we were still in high school. When Noah was acting like an ass, Zack always trusted me. I love him for that”

“You love him for everything” Franca muttered and Ella couldn’t help but laugh,” don’t forget you’re married”

France stuck her tongue out making the three women laugh.

Martin however, wasn’t laughing as he knocked on the front door of the house that was supposedly holding Jasmine.

A tall black haired guy opened the door and his eyes widened when he recognized Martin, he said,” Hello there Martino”

Martin frowned,” I’m sorry, I do-don’t remember you”

Zachariah remembered suddenly what Jasmine told them and smiled apologetically,

” I’m Zack, Jasmine’s brother in law.”

Martin nodded and then his eyes moved to the two men standing behind Zack.

“I’m Gerard,” one of them said, Martin shook his hand

“I’m Noah” the other said and shook Martin’s hand

“Come in” Zachariah said opening the door wide. Martin entered and then heard Zack saying,” Me and Martino will be in my office”

Martino silently followed him there and they stared at each other while sitting on opposite seats.

“Nice house” Martin stated diverting his eyes away from the intent gaze of the guy.

“Thank you. Look Martino, I know I am a little creepy but just hear the things I want to say and then I’ll call Jasmine for you”

Martin smiled slightly and nodded, Zack chuckled

“She’s pregnant, I hope you know that. With your child. I love her, she’s practically my sister and I protect her always. But if you can’t be there for her just leave and don’t return. She deserves to settle down and live her life, raise the kid and be happy”
