Mission XX: Seducing The Great Seducer

"I wonder when they are gonna stop this goddamn photo shoot. She has been doing this all day, don\'t they know that she must be exhausted?" Jackson asked furiously when he saw Jasmine yawned.

"JK, why are you getting furious with us, we are not among those crew members making your woman work to the bones or have you forgotten that?" Jeff asked when Jackson\'s action of hitting the water startled him.

"Guys, quickly look away. She is staring at us," Steve informed as he immediately turned his back on her so she won\'t know they have been watching her. Without thinking the two guys did as Steve ordered.

Other people have been staring at me all day so why haven\'t the three friends looked my way even once? Jasmine thought her gaze focused on the three guys now swimming. She forgot that she was in the middle of a goddamn shoot.

"Young Miss, look this way," the photographer tried to draw back her attention to him but Jasmine who was lost in her thought could not hear a single word he said.

"Jasmine, what is wrong? You look distracted," Catherine who just walked up to her said placing her left hand on Jasmine\'s right shoulder.

"Cat, I am done here," Jasmine declared firmly before she left the place. The photographer was so lucky to have taken several pictures of her in that swimsuit before she decided to leave. He would have been in serious trouble if he hasn\'t done that.

"Miss Jasmine, where are you going to? We are not done here," Nathan said as tried to run after her but Catherine quickly obstructed his path.

"Instead of whining you should be grateful, she let you guys do whatever you like until this moment. What would you have done if she had decided not to shoot for the front cover of your magazine?" Catherine asked fiercely.

Understanding the threats in Catherine\'s words, Nathan turn back and went to his crew.

"JK, she is coming towards us," Jeff announced stuttering a little out of fear. Before Jackson could understand what he meant, his two friends had already stepped out of the pool.

"Damn those betrayers," Jackson cursed aloud when he realises how close Jasmine was. Even though he knew that she might get to him, he still resumes getting out of the pool before Jasmine reaches him.

Seeing that she would never catch up to him, Jasmine quickly devised a plan to make Jackson get back into the water. She jumped into the pool without thinking.

"Help...," Jackson heard a voice behind him. Turning back to check what was wrong, he was shocked to see Jasmine struggling inside the water.

"Didn\'t the information my men give says she is a very good swimmer so what is wrong with her now?" Jackson thought in fear.

"Goddamn it! She is gonna drown if I don\'t save her," Jackson thought as he jumped back into the water.

"Why do I have this feeling that this is one of her tricks to get JK closer to her?" Jeff standing outside the pool with Steve said staring at Jasmine who was beating the water violently with both hands.

"Yeah, how could someone who doesn\'t know how to swim deliberately jumps into the swimming pool when she knows that she is at the risk of drowning?" Steve asked staring at Jasmine who was now in Jackson\'s arms.

"It is either this is her plan or she is sure that Jackson wouldn\'t be able to ignore h," Jeff concluded.

"Are you ok?" Jackson asked in a worried tone when he saw her breathe heavily. Jasmine quickly wrapped her hand around his neck. Her terrified look made Jackson wondered whether his men got the wrong information about her.

"I am so scared Ice Prince. I thought you would ignore me to die since you don\'t like me," Jasmine said her grip around his neck tightens even more.

"How could I ever ignore a dying person? Although I am cold that doesn\'t mean that I am heartless," Jackson said as he pats her back so he could calm her down.

Catherine\'s eyes widened in shock when she saw Jasmine hugging Jackson so tightly.

"I now understand why she was in such a hurry to leave. Her name would not be Jasmine Avans again if she doesn\'t seize the slightest opportunity she gets," Catherine thought smiling before she quickly parked Jasmine stuff.

"Does this means you saved me because you like me or because you would have done that for any drowning person, "Jasmine asked not letting go of Jackson.

"Of course because...," Jackson paused when he realised that he almost spills the beans.

"Jasmine, do you really not know how to swim?" Jackson quickly changed the discussion. He carried her gently out of the swimming pool.

"Why do you want to know that?" Jasmine asked not answering his question.

"Just answer me ok and be honest about it because your answer is very important," Jackson said in a serious tone. His friends quickly handed him a towel. Jeff rolled his eyes when he saw how Jasmine refused to come down from Jackson\'s body.

"I know how to swim, I only pretended earlier because I didn\'t want you to ignore me," Jasmine said. She sounded like a pampered little girl who has been spoiled all her life.

I just knew that she was pretending. Jack just loves her too much to realise that she was putting up an act earlier.

Steve thought staring at Jackson\'s face. He was surprised to see his expression turns to an angry one.

"Get off from my body," Jackson ordered coldly. Even Jasmine was surprised to see his worried expression turn to an angry one.

"You...,"

"I said get off right now. You will get hurt if I do it myself so get down or else I won\'t be polite," Jackson said staring at her.

Jasmine reluctantly came down from his body. Jackson turned to leave but she held his hand before he could walk away.

"You could pull a prank on me with every other thing except your life, got it?" Jackson asked sternly before he shoved her hand away.
