Chapter 39: 39. I Believe You.

Jonathan shut his eyes for a minute and sighed. "It's okay, I believe you." He said.

Walking to the door he opened it and stood in the way. "What do you want?" He asked the man at the door.​​

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience sir but we'll have to search this room." The man said.

Jessie bent beside the bed and struggled to keep her rapid heartbeat from exposing her.

"I beg your pardon?" Jonathan asked. "What right do you have to say such?"

"It's just... Sir there has been an intruder and the person ran past here so I have t-"

"You mean somebody infiltrated your business and put all the safety of your customers in jeopardy? Is that what your saying?" Jonathan asked.

"Uh... yes sir, that's what happened." The man said.

Jonathan laughed "and you have the guts to come here and ask to search my room? Instead of catching this person? You even had the guts to come here and tell me that my life is in danger due to the incompetence of your staff?!" Jonathan yelled.

"S-sir... p-please..." The man stuttered.

Jonathan grabbed the man's shirt and pulled him closer looking straight down at the man he easily towered. "Look, unless you want to be buried in lawsuits I suggest that you go and and solve this problem, and stop disturbing me." Jonathan spat.

"Y-yes s-sir I'm sorry sir." He said walking away.

Jonathan sighed and closed the door. Jessie stood up slowly and she looked at him. There was a moment of uncertainty and silence, then Jessie broke the ice.

"Thank you so much, you don't know how you've saved me." Jessie said bowing slightly.

Jonathan walked to her and stood a few feet from her. "This is absurd." He stated. "Care to explain?"

Jessie nodded, "I would but I have to get out of here first." She said.

"I could help with that. But quick question why are you being chased at a massage parlor? I should at least know what exactly what you did."

He said.

Jessie bit her lip and stared at her feet. "I'm not proud of it but you must understand, I am angry and hurting." She paused, Jonathan nodded encouraging her to continue talking.

"I... I just had to see the woman that ruined my life." She blurted.

Jonathan tilted his head and gazed intently as her. "By chance are you talking about Patricia Lee?"

Jessie looked up instantly. "How do you know?"

"Hmmm... I had an idea." He said.

**************************************************

Jonathan watched his secretary speak about an actress with so much passion. The passion of a real fan, he saw it first hand today.

"Why don't you believe Patricia Lee?" Jonathan asked.

"Are you Kidding me? She is always after Jessie, and the funny thing is that she couldn't even hold a candle to Jessie's talent." Krystal scoffed. "She always wanted to have Jessie's fame and love."

"I thought they were really good friends, I see many posters of them, aren't they co-star in that hit comedy show?" Jonathan said.

"Oh please, that's just acting. We all know the truth." Krystal shook her head.

***************************************************

"So, what did you do to her?" He asked.

Jessie stared at her feet and rubbed her neck with her hand. "Before I speak, know this I'm only human and it may seem that I might have gone overboard but I don't regret anything." She said.

"Is it that bad?" He asked, she nodded.

"I put the hot stones on her back straight from the coal and rubbed her with coconut oil because she's allergic. Then I cut her hair." Jessie said in one breath.

"Hmmm.... You don't regret anything you did?" He asked.

Jessie shook her head. " So why are you running?"

"Because I'm only just started. I'm going to destroy that woman and her family." She said firmly.

"Isn't that going to far? I mean she is your enemy not the entire family." He said.

"You won't understand, but thanks a lot for what you've done for me." She gave him a small smile.

Jonathan nodded in response, "How do you intend on leaving?" He asked.

"Ahh... I haven't thought of that yet." She sighed holding her back. "I'll figure something out."

"So you really came in here to hurt Patricia without a plan?" Jonathan asked in disbelief.

"I didn't plan on hurting her, honestly all I wanted was to follow her and wait for her to slip up, so I could tarnish her image the way she did mine. But when I saw her lying there the way she was, I couldn't help myself." She admitted.

Jonathan groaned and shook his head. "You're really reckless do you know that? If you didn't plan to that why would you do so at first? Do you realise that you could have gone to jail?" He scolded her. "Look, anyone could be in this room, if it was anybody else, you'd be in big trouble." He said.

Jessie stared at her feet.

"But I understand your anger, so I'll help you."

"Really!" She perked up, smiling widely " thank you! Thank you so much!" She clapped.

Jonathan smiled at her, she really was a beauty. Even now standing in men's clothing she looked exquisite and beautiful. Something about her just made him want to help her, she didn't even need to do much to convince her.

After a while she and Jonathan exited the room, Jonathan was wearing his suit and Jessie was wearing jeans and a polo shirt with the logo of the massage parlor on it. She pulled her hair back and tied it behind her neck holding on to piles of towel she kept her head low and walked behind Jonathan.

As they approached the lobby he handed his belongings to her when he got them. Patricia was screaming at everybody in the lobby, threatening to sue the establishment.

The ambulance that was to take her to the hospital arrived the same time they reached the lobby so that provided adequate distraction they used to slip away.

"So, what now?" He asked her as they reached his car.

Jessie bowed. "I cannot explain how grateful I am to you, really thank you." She said.

Jonathan nodded, "don't worry about it, just do whatever you have to, good luck."

"You're an angel, thank you."

Jonathan laughed at her comment. "Here's my card if you need anything let me know."

She smiled and took it, tucking it safe in her pocket she turned and walked away. Today was certainly crazy.

**********

Okay so my contract verification failed again. I'm so disappointed and I feel so listless I don't want to write. Plus my country is a mess right now, so everything just sucks today.

So for the meantime I won't be publishing much chapters. I promise to get back with more lively content but for now I have to focus on passing the contract verification and praying for my country.

Bear with me, and also put your dear author and her country in your prayers. It's really needed.

Thank you for understanding.
