Chapter 66
Korina saw Jace everywhere, at her place of work, at the mall, on the streets, at the movies.
She saw Jace when she went out with the girls, she saw him when she went to the convenience store.
Jace was everywhere, and everywhere had Jace.
She was running crazy, her stress ball was equally stressed. She swore that the next time she saw him, she would kill him and get rid of that handsome face of his.
Handsome? Her conscience had questioned, oh now, you find him handsome.
She knew that if she saw him one more time she would literally go crazy.
“I swear, I am going nuts if I see that man one more time.” She had told her friends, and they had laughed.
Anne and Daniella found the situation very funny and they saw no reason why Korina was refusing Jace.
She had threatened them both that if they rooted for Jace again it would be a question of their friendship and after that they both dropped the issue, none rooting for him anymore.
“Don’t you think she’s gonna get really irritated by you, if you keep on like this.” Ade asked Jace as they were inspecting one of his warehouses.
They had received new shipments of arms and wanted to check them out themselves to avoid any mess ups.
“Dude.” Jace laughed, “She is already irritated.” He lifted a cloth wrap and threw it open revealing a pack of bullets, “You should have seen her face the last time we met, She wanted to explode in anger.”
“And you think it’s a good thing for you to piss her off and irritate her always.”
“Yes.” Jace nodded, “She’s gonna get so angry and I would irk her so much that she would agree to go on a date with me just to get rid of me.”
“You think it’s gonna work that way?”
“You would see.” Jace patted his shoulder, “Just wait.” He smirked.
Korina was so excited that she finally got someone to wash her windows and glass walls. She didn’t know who it was yet and wasn’t interested in knowing, all she cared for was that her windows got washed.
“No.” She told Daniella over the phone, “I have no plans of going out today.”
“Why?” Daniella asked over the phone. “I know if I go out, I am gonna see that lunatic Jace and my day is gonna be ruined.”
“Suit yourself.”
“Yes I will, If I stay in today, I can totally avoid him. It’s not like he’s gonna be the one to wash my windows.” She laughed.
“Okay bye, see you tomorrow.”
“Yea you too.” They said their goodbyes and Korina got down to making sandwiches.
She was enjoying her sandwiches later that afternoon and flipping through a magazine admist the squishy sounds coming from the window area.
Her attention was only commanded when she heard a continuous tapping on her window. She ignored it at first and then turned to look when it grew repetitive.
Jace Lander was standing there dressed in an overall holding a wide brush, waving at her and smiling widely.
She thought she was hallucinating and shook her head before looking again.
Jace was actually there, washing her windows and she wanted to scream.
Korina was livid, through out the weeks since he promised to always bother her, she had been seeing him non stop and now he was here washing her windows and smiling brightly like he was totally innocent.
She wanted to haul something at his face and knock out his perfect teeth, destroying his beautiful smile. You find his smile beautiful, She smacked herself mentally.
“Jace is in my house and he’s washing my windows for goodness sake. What is going on?” Korina whispered harshly into the phone?
“Well… Uhmm… I don’t know why you’re taking it out on me?” Daniella said sipping her drink, She was getting her nails done, “I am here getting my manicure done, I don’t know how you expect me to know what’s going on there.”
“Don’t you dare piss me off Daniella.” Korina growled at her and her cousin wondered if she bore any resemblance with Jace that made Korina wanna take out all the anger on her.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Calm down sis.”
“This man is here and I am so livid.” She growled, “I am fucking going to kill someone.”
“Then you go to Jail.” Daniella said stating facts.
She was about to reply when she heard the door bell ring, so she put an end to the call and walked over to the door.
“Hi.” Jace smiled widely at Korina immediately she opened the door, he saw that she was seething with rage, “Why do you look so angry Korina?”
“You asking me?” She growled, “You can’t be serious!”
“I am done washing your windows.” He told her.
“Well good.” Korina gave him a sinister smile, “I hope I never have to see your annoying face ever again.”
Jace’s face fell, he was hurt by her words, really? Am I that bad? Is there something wrong with me?
“You would be seeing me a lot Korina, more than the times you have seen me previously.” Jace said giving her a determined look, “You would see me everywhere till you agree to go on a date with me.”
“You are sick.” She poked a finger at his chest.
“As a matter of fact I am.” He smirked, “I won’t stop.”
“Arrgh!” Korina let out a frustrated scream, “What the hell is your problem?”
“Go on a date with me.” He requested, “Please.”
“No!” She replied, “Hell no!”
“Get ready to see more of me.” He said, “And it’s a promise.”
“I would kill you.” She stared at him, “Get off my back.”
“Just one date Korina.”
She stared at him, at his long hair, his beautiful face and eyes, he can’t be that bad, She thought.
“Please?” Jace pleaded.
“One date and you are out of my life for good?” She asked and he nodded with a grin.
“Fine.” Korina sighed, “One date.”
