CHAPTER 14  

******

Jolene was already on the set. Immediately she saw Leon walk in with Gem, she adjusted her dress and walked up to them.

"Gem, Gem….. look you're almost late….. I want your help let's practice this scene together before the director arrives." She said and I made a face full of disgust.

"Get lost," I said and Leon looked at me in surprise.

"Miss Gem, you don't have to be so harsh," he said.

"And who gave you the right to talk in my affair? Remember you're just my bodyguard!" she yelled in anger and walk away. Jolene put on a sad and disappointing face.

"She hates me," she murmured and started crying. Leon hold her shoulders and said, "It's okay I'll talk to her."

"No, it's okay, Mr Leon. I deserve it. I was mean to her it's fine." She said and walked away.

Leon was angry and disappointed in me.

After the scene, Ruth and I entered Leon's car.

"Leon, can we stop at the French restaurant to eat?" I said.

"I'm not your personal driver. I'm just your bodyguard...." He said.

"Don't tell me you're angry because of Jolene?" I said.

"I didn't like your behaviour towards her!" he said.

"And I didn't like your behaviour towards her too….. you're being too nice to her!" I yelled.

"That's because she's your sister and she's nice," he said.

"Nice, really, well nice enough to be in your bed or as your mistress?" I said.

"Why are you so dumb?" he said still driving.

"Yes, I'm dumb I agree go meet you nice Jolene, and leave me alone!" I yelled and faced the window.

Ruth watched them from the back seat. It was like they were having a couple's fight.

We got home and I got out of the car and slammed the car door shut like crazy.

"Leon?"

"Yes?" he answered.

"Please don't let Jolene fool you, I can see you're a smart man….stay away from the green grass then the green snake won't hurt you." She said and Leon nodded.

I was so angry 'Is he already in love with Jolene….. I thought he said he was my husband….ha…. husband my foot....'

"Leon….. you're the dumb one…..you're so dumb….so dumb to say Jolene is nice….so dumb to say I'm dumb… so dumb, dumb… and dumb, Husband my ass…..wait till I get my hands on that certificate I'll rip it apart….tear it into pieces….burn it to ashes…wet it with water…. and aaaa…" I roared in anger. "Don't cry, Gem…. be strong….. Leon is an asshole…. he's not even compared to the CEO of j corp…..wait till I became a signed artist in j corp then I'll seduce the CEO and marry him…. I'll personally make you go to jail." Leon has been watching me from behind. Unknown to me. Leon could only smile sadly as he walked up to her and hugged her from behind.

"Let go of me…. I'm too dumb…go hug your nice Jolene….. useless husband."

"What? Gem, Don't cross the line!" he said and tightened the hug.

"Or….. or what? pervert." I said.

"Or this….." his lips landed on my neck. I shivered.

"Eww….. gross…. go kiss your nice Jolene." I broke free from his hug.

"Kitten, come on... fine I know you hate her but she's trying to be nice…. give her a chance," he said and hold my arms.

"She's a snake….. I think the only reason she's nice to me is because of you….. I think she likes you…. I've seen the way she looks at you." I said and lower my head.

"Wait, are you jealous already?" He asked and I nodded which surprised Leon. Gosh, this kitten was so cute.

"Why won't I be jealous….. are you not my husband huh?" I said.

"Oh…. your useless husband?" He asked and I smiled.

"Stop it….. you have to stay away from her," I said.

"Okay I'll try but I can't promise anything," he said and surprisingly peck my lips… I wasn't expecting that.

When the mood was about to turn romantic Leon's phone rang. It was Kelvin.

"Kelv? what's up?..... I'm on my way right now, I can't believe I forgot." he said and started packing his bag.

"W….where are you off to?" I asked.

"Sorry kitten….. something came up….. I'll be back in a few days…. Don't miss me too much..." he said and kissed me. The kiss was deep, very deep but didn't last long. "Kitten I have to go…. if you need anything tell the maids…. They'll help you." He said and left before I could say a word. I ran after him but he was long gone in his car.

Ruth walked up to me.

"You mean this is Leon's house?" Ruth asked but I didn't answer her.

"You know something is not right here." She said again but I didn't mind her…. I missed Leon already.

Kelvin and his cousin were seating together.

"What's your plan?" She asked.

"Time to tell her the truth and she'll be gone before Leon comes back…. then you can take over."
