Rise of Jayden Fernando Chapter 177
Carina was scared. She looked around, wondering what to do—if to leave him, or still stay with him. His bloodshot eyes were peering into her skin, giving her the creep, as she had never seen him that way. His disheveled hair was added to the list, causing him to look like a mentally unstable person. She wanted to run away from him, afraid of the sight before her, but her heart ached for him.She could not bear to leave him that way. He looked like he needed someone, even though he tried to mask his emotions."I. I want to…to be with you," she stuttered, pushing herself up, to kneel beside him comfortably.The way he stared at her was unexplainable. With how untidy the room was, and the way both of them stayed in the position, she seemed like a nurse trying to tame her psycho patient.If anyone had told her that her boss could be this way, she would deny everything and even argue over it.He acted like he had everything in control, no matter what the situation was. She had always a

The scene that just occurred could pass for a beautiful picturesque romance. Her knee-length dress and hair that fell on her back made her want to present as the character in Titanic, Rose. And, his black pants and damped shirt that stuck to his body gave him another kind of vibe that no one had seen before.She stared at him; how vulnerable and more human he looked, than the usual personality he pulled up every time, at work.She could not say no to him, not when he was in this state. She nodded her head, slowly, returning to him. She could not tell where she got the courage to pull him again into another warm embrace.She somewhat liked this side of him. His emotions were written all over his face, and the way he looked weak and vulnerable showed how much pain he hid inside.Although she had no idea what caused him to be this way, she liked that she was there for him. Her heart ached to see him that way."Thank you," he mumbled.She lifted her head and stared at him. He was taller

The tray in her hand almost fell off, as she heard him speak. Judging from his look, one would wonder why Carina acted that way, when his face lacked any form of emotions, as though what he said was a normal thing.It was partially her fault. She could have just left when she had the chance to, now she was going to feed her boss!She did not dare to say no, of course. She swallowed hard, walking towards him in slow steps. Sitting on the bed, beside him, she picked up the bowl containing the carrot soup Nanny Perla had prepared.Taking a spoonful of it, she nervously raised the spoon to his mouth, and he opened it wide enough to take the whole content."Are you planning on burning my tongue?" He said, playfully, but she was too scared to take his words lightly."I'm really sorry, sir," she said, taking another spoonful.This time, she blew the content with her mouth to make it warm, before feeding it to him.She felt like she was feeding a big baby. It felt weird since it was her fir

CHAPTER 180The sound coming from the person next to him—close to him, made him wake up. His eyes flashed open, squinting them to clear his vision.His eyes met the perfect morning gift—the sleeping beauty. She looked even more beautiful when asleep, and he wished he could always see her every time she went to bed.She looked more calm asleep than when she acted tough and feisty at work. He stared at her for a long time, until his eyes gradually left her face to her lips.They looked juicy and perfect, he wished to have a taste of it. He began to imagine what happened to him.How did he end up here with her? Why did he let his vulnerable side show? He blamed himself for being too vulnerable in front of her last night.He had let his guard down, so he thought. He imagined what she could do to him, after knowing how vulnerable he could get.But, Carina was not like that. She could not hurt even an insect. Why would she think of hurting him? What was he really afraid of? He had no speci

Carina stared at the money in his hand. Her heart ached without any reason. If she were to be asked why she was feeling that way, she would not be able to explain it.She didn't think he would pay her—no, she didn't think he would consider what they shared last night as a service.She only did that because she cared about him, but he was not seeing it. Did he really think everything was for money?Alex knew how huge that amount of money was to any middle-class or lower-class person. Who would reject a thousand dollars?Well, no one except Carina. "I'm sorry, Sir Jayden, but I will not accept this money."Her words left the two men stunned. Is she refusing a thousand dollars? Was it too small? He wondered if she wanted more, after all, whenever money was involved, women tend to be so eager and enthusiastic that they sometimes don't reason with their brains.He had a different view of Carina, but seeing that she rejected such an offer, maybe she needed an increment, he believed that hi

There was no need to turn around, as she could recognize the voice. It was Mabelle.She wondered if she could ever have a day filled with happiness without her ruining it with her presence.She was definitely not ready to start a conversation with her, because it seemed like what she wanted from her. She was not going to give in to her wishes.Picking the file and her bag, she made to leave without saying a word to her, but she was held back.Mabelle had held her arm, causing her to stop. She glared at the hand that was wrapped around her arm, and then at Mabelle."Let me go, this instant!" She demanded, shooting her a deadly glare.Maybe she had been too soft, allowing them to think they could trample on her. Their free trial was over now, and she was ready to deal with anyone who tried to step on her."And what if I don't?" Mabelle questioned, admiring her newly found confidence. "I see you are now bold enough to defend yourself. Why is that? Is there a secret? Do you mind sharing

She paused and looked at him. She didn't want to talk to him, else she might not control her feelings, and then, say things she ought not to have said.She was not ready to regret anything. At least, not yet. She still had a lot to fix, and the scar Nathan had left in her was still fresh, making her scared to love again.Wait, was she falling for her boss? She was only being a caring employee, right? Or, was there more to it than anyone knew?"I do not want to talk to you," she blurted, causing him to retract his hand.He had not expected her to respond that way. Was she angry at him?He wondered what he did wrong. Was her attitude because of the conversation they had in the car? He tried to let her go, and focus on work, but his heart kept leading him on. It seemed to him like he had no control over himself, anymore.This was something he dreaded. It was his worst fear—to fall in love. He knew how he acted whenever he was in love with someone.It seemed like his fear was coming afte

Andrea was sure of what she heard. There was no mistake to that; she heard him clearly.He really did refer to her as Carina. Just what did Alex not tell her?"Jayden, it's me. Andrea, remember?" She said, waving at his face.He knew he was up for an interrogation session with his cousin, but it was his personal life, he would choose what to answer, and what not to answer."That was a mistake, okay? I mean, I've been working with her frequently, so I'm used to her presence," he shortly explained.She was even more surprised. When did Jayden start explaining anything to anyone? To think that she did not ask him for an explanation at all."Wait, Jayden," she said. "You seem to have changed a lot. What am I missing? The Jayden I know does not even explain anything to anyone, but here he is, giving me an explanation before I could even ask," she stated, placing a finger on her chin."I don't know what you are talking about," he responded. "Why are you even here? Shouldn't you be with your

Jayden could not wait to take his bride. Immediately after the wedding was over, they went on their honeymoon.The force of his words left her speechless for a second. "You want to punish me?" She whispered."Of course. For making me wait so long." He replied. And with one sweep of his arm, he lifted her in the air and placed her to sit on the table.She was staring openly at Jayden's mouth now, utterly mesmerized, and he was looking down at her, his gaze hooded, his eyes darkening. He was breathing harder than usual. They were both in the mood, and there was no going back.He picked her up, and placed her gently on the bed, settling in between her thighs.Suddenly he pushed forward, pressing himself against her, while he supported his weight with his elbow.Before she knew it, he had both of her hands in one of his in a strong grip above her head. She gasped at the sudden movement.He leaned forward and took her lips. She moaned into his mouth, giving his tongue an opening. He took

Jayden had only passed out, due to the amount of blood he lost. Alex had called the ambulance, and they took all of them to the hospital.Carina kept panicking, but Sonia and her sister tried to comfort her, but she was not having it.Andrea flew from South Africa, abandoning her projects. She could not make it to the wedding, but after she heard that Jayden had passed out, and was in a critical condition, she left everything and rushed down.They all thought it was Jayden who got shot, and though they tried to act fine, they were praying in their hearts that he should be fine.Nanny Perla and Mr. Thomas came to the hospital, as well, after receiving a call from Carina. They were asked to stand outside, while Jayden and Fernando were taken inside for treatment. Carina's face was covered in tears, some strands of her hair stuck to her face, and it looked disheveled.She didn't mind, all she wanted now was for Jayden to be alright. The doctors assured them that he would be fine, but sh

"You know, I'm supposed to be the heir to all your properties. After all, I am the eldest."He walked around in circles, making weird sounds. His hair was looking unkempt, giving him the exact look of a mentally unstable person."Jayden is my legal son, and by right, he owns my properties. I already gave you what you asked for, whatever Jayden has belongs to him," Fernando asserted, his voice falling flat, his aura, intimidating."I worked with you in that company, so that I can take over and manage the company once you retire. This brat did nothing other than go on an unsuccessful adventure of finding true love. After his failed attempt, you handed over the company to him. Just like that!" Nathan yelled, jealous of Jayden.He had only worked in the company to gain his father's favor, only for the company to be given to Jayden, who initially didn't want the company."You," he said to Jayden, "you took everything away from me. Everything I worked hard to get; the company, his favor," h

Rage burned down Jayden's heart, as he saw the ripped part of the dress, which revealed her thighs."You will do no such thing!" Jayden roared, instructing Alex to track the location.He looked at Fiona, this time, without anger. "I will save Carina. Don't worry, just stay here with your mother, and everything will be fine."He put on a pair of pants, and a shirt, folding the sleeves of the shirt. All that was on his mind now was to save Carina from his hands.There was only concern on his face, he could not imagine what she went through as a rape victim. If Charles was still alive, he would have surely made him pay for the crime he committed.Alex got the location and trailed behind Jayden, whose long legs strode towards the door.Nanny Perla and Mr. Thomas wished him luck. Sonia was there too, but she was not allowed to tag along."We will come back, okay?" Alex hugged her and followed Jayden. He turned on the engine and drove out at a high speed. It was past 7 pm, and there were n

There was a flash of surprise on his face. How could he be his brother? Someone who once worked for him? Someone who cheated the company?It was ridiculous, and if he were ever in any position to make a guess, he would never mention Nathan's name.How could a psycho be his brother? That was absurd! Jayden looked at his father, pain and hatred were visible in his eyes."That explains it, then. You should have thrown me out into the streets, and taken in Nathan, rather than treat me like I was the cause of your own problems! I can't even stand you, you don't deserve to be my father," Jayden thundered, his voice deepening in anger."Jayden, I—""You, Carina…all of you! There is nothing that differentiates you all. You are the same; liars! Here I thought you were really sorry for everything, never knew you were this selfish. The only true family I have is Uncle Lukas, Nanny Perla, and Mr. Thomas. You," he said, jabbing a finger at his father, "are not my father."He didn't wait for any r

The audience gasped in shock. Just a while ago, he was the happiest groom, who could not wait to see his bride, and now, he was calling off the wedding.He didn't pay attention to the murmurings coming from the people. He stepped down, slowly walking towards Carina.Each step he took closer to her made her feel like she was meeting her doom. She glanced at the envelope in his hand, it looked like the same envelope she saw yesterday when she met Nathan."Jay, please, I can explain," she muttered, trying hard to calm him down, but the rage in his eyes didn't seem to become tender.Rather, it seemed like her plea made him more furious. Just a couple of steps away from her, he stopped. His eyes never left her, as though she was going to disappear if he even blinked an eye."You suddenly want to explain now, hm?" He started, "Explain what, exactly? That you are not a virgin? That you lied to me? Or, that you had an ugly past which you hid from me in the guise of being a good woman!" He hu

Stephanie had planned to step out when she saw Alex and Sonia hiding behind the door. She let go of a mischievous smile and went back in. She phoned Nathan and reported her findings to him. He ordered her to send some men to get them. He grinned, knowing that he could even use them better. They were caught unawares, making it easy for the men to get hold of them. Also, they were unarmed, so they could not do anything other than struggle to break free.Just as Carina thought she had an advantage after finding out Nathan's plan, she was ready to come clean.However, her only hope of telling Jayden the truth shattered before her eyes, as she had to sacrifice the truth for her friends.The hefty men brought in Alex and Sonia, with their hands tied to the back. Carina gasped in surprise. She never expected them to follow her."Carina, don't mind them. Go and tell Jayden the truth, don't worry about us. We will be safe," Alex instructed, fighting to break free from the rope that bound hi

Sonia had gotten a call from Alex last night, inquiring about their discussion. She hated to lie to Alex, and she knew that she sucked a lot at lying.Since it was over a phone call, she was able to lie to him, because she didn't have to look at his face.He didn't believe her, so he said he would meet her at CR Restaurant, so they could talk. It didn't make sense to him that what he heard that night kept leading him on to what Jayden told him.Sonia took out her phone and called Alex. She was panicking, seeing that Carina was a few miles away from her, talking to a stranger."Hello, where are you?" She said, immediately he answered the phone."I'm at the parking—""Don't park the car, drive out now. I'll meet you in front of the restaurant," she replied sharply, rushing out of the restaurant to wait for Alex.She kept her eyes on Carina, and she was about to enter the vehicle, following the stranger.Alex stopped right in front of Sonia, who jumped in immediately, without a care to

Carina stared at Alex with widened eyes. This was what she was afraid of. Definitely, Alex would tell Jayden about it, and that meant everything was over.Alex walked closer to them, sitting down on the seat he sat on before he left."Oh! We..uh, we have something we wanted to do; more like content, so I was trying to tell her what to say," Sonia chipped in, covering up the whole thing.Alex knew when Sonia was lying and when she was not. He could tell it by looking into her eyes. There was just something about her statement that he could not believe. Even if he wanted to, it didn't just seem real.First, Carina was not a social media person, and creating content about a rape case was too sensitive. "Yes, yes. She is right, I was…I couldn't recall my part, so I was asking her to help me out," Carina supported, hoping that Alex would believe their lie.He didn't say anything. He shrugged his shoulders, taking Sonia's drink from her. "Hey, give me my drink!" Sonia yelled, punching hi
