Winning Her Heart Again novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Date?

Jasmine's POV

I chuckled and crossed my arms. I saw how he smiled and fixed himself to look presentable.

I smiled broadly, and he thought that I would agree easily.

“ Mr. Peterson, I'm sorry to reject you, but I have no interest in dating.” I politely said and excused myself, but he walked beside me.

“ I'm just kidding. I shouldn't leave a bad impression on someone who is as gorgeous as you, especially since this is our first meeting, Ms. Stewart.” He winked at me, and I secretly rolled my eyes.

Did he think that he could get me by doing that stuff? I stopped and looked at him.

“ Mr. Peterson, I'll just find another way to compensate you,” I said. I was about to walk away when I suddenly tripped. I closed my eyes and waited for my face to bump on the floor, but seconds had passed, and I found myself in Paul's hand.

He caught me, and his face was too close to me. He's staring at me like crazy.

We had just separated when I heard someone cough. Paul helped me stand up, his hand still on my waist.

“ Travis! Cousin!” he exclaimed. There, I realized that they are related to each other. I thought he would accept Paul's hand, but he didn't. Paul just chucked at him and looked at me.

“ You know each other?” Stacy asked him, pointing at me. Does she have to know everything?

“ Yes, and I'm courting her” My eyes widened because of what he said. What the?! Is he for real?!

I looked at him and glared, but he just laughed. I sighed and looked at Travis, who was now showing a dark expression, while Stacy was surprised—as always.

“Oh! I didn't know that you were too close with different guys!” She furrowed her eyebrows. Here she goes again.

I hate seeing her here, and I especially feel allergic to her presence.

“ Jasmine is just friendly. And that's what I like about her” he winked at me, and I just smiled at him.

I think I have to enjoy this night. Just this night. I smirk and look at Paul.

“ Paul, could you please take your hands off me for a while?” I politely said, and he laughed and did what I said. I'm not comfortable with his hands on my waist.

“ I'm sorry, babe,” he laughed and fixed himself. What a jerk. He already thought of something that he could call me.
