I Love You, My Bodyguard
Chapter 53

After at least two weeks since Jasmine spoke to Marshel about the woman's future plans, it was the first time the young lady had met Xavier who had just returned from the United Kingdom. "G ...." Jasmine took a sip of her own tea as she let out a long sigh, smelling the scent of the top grade tea that Xavier had bought as a gift for her. "Well, you can say, the conversation between the two of us was very, very awkward and stiff" Jasmine said, putting the tea glass back on the table, staring at Xavier who was taking a loaf of bread, then cut it small and then ate it little by little after being smeared with salted butter.

"Ah .. have you also talked about our wedding plans to Marshel? So what kind of response did Marshel show at the time?" Xavier asked after swallowing the bread in his mouth, looking at his own interlocutor with a gentle gaze. "On that, I'm sorry, Jasmine, I didn't expect that there would be a bit of trouble in my business world that made me wantonly leave you and go to Great Britain to take care of it as quickly as I could."

The beautiful woman who had eyes that had the color blue sea immediately put on a thin smile, then shook her head gently. "Ooh-no, no, I don't think it's really that big of a deal, Xavier, considering that during the time you went to England, at least I was finally able to have a little chat with Marshel, anyway, after a long time we both did not speak to each other intimately." Jasmine gave a small chuckle, as if she was laughing at her own silliness. "Well, so I don't think that's a big deal."

The man who has a tall and stocky body and reddish brown hair and eyes that have a blue sea color immediately put on a thin smile and then nodded his head potluck, as it were, just agree with the rather silly remarks that have been given by the interlocutor. "What about your plan going forward? I mean, what are you gonna do about it?" Xavier asked again as he sipped his own tea.

"Mhm .. I think like I said before, we'll both tell Marshel together that we're both getting married, and after that I'll keep watching and start putting pressure on the guy. I know maybe in the worst case scenario, Marshel wouldn't say anything at all, but at the same time wouldn't Marshel just show a slightly different emotion?" Jasmine let out a long breath. "It's so ridiculous that I'm. What am I thinking, anyway?"

Instead of laughing at the silliness that was in Jasmine's mind, Xavier put on a thin smile and gently rubbed the head of the woman who was at his side, it was as if it was calming Jasmine's heart to avoid being too messed up. "Well .. you know, this time what you said sounded like a good idea. I mean, whatever it is, it feels like your idea this time sounds pretty reasonable. Well, I just need to help you get to the stage where we tell Marshel our wedding plans, and then it's in your hands. Good idea, let's do it!"

Hearing the invitation that Xavier had issued to him, a thin smile suddenly appeared on Jasmine's face, as if feeling happy because the idea this time was not a bad idea to do. "Well, then maybe we can .. I don't know, forget it, I forgot what I was going to say." Jasmine turned her gaze in another direction, as if embarrassed to look at Xavier who was now watching the woman constantly and continuously.

Instead of answering the questions and temptations given by Xavier directly, the beautiful woman who has hair that has almost white yellow color that looks to have eyes that have a blue sea color instead turned her eyes in the other direction, preventing himself from just looking back at Xavier who was putting a teasing smile on his handsome face. It's a bitch, really. "Of course not, why do I feel ashamed when I have to say something to you? You want to joke with me, right?" jasmine said in a slightly raised tone, as if feeling really annoyed by Xavier's words to her.

The Chief Executive Officer put on a small smile. "Why don't you say it? You chose not to look at me at all. So if you don't feel ashamed when you say it, why did you do it?" Xavier asked while raising his eyebrows as high as possible while nodding his head slowly as if he was teasing his interlocutor who Xavier thought looked absolutely adorable.

"N-no, who said I was embarrassed?" Jasmine covered her own mouth, staring at the vase that somehow looked very, very attractive all of a sudden. "For what reason am I ashamed to ask something of you?" Jasmine asked back as she turned her head, looking straight at Xavier with her blue eyes glistening so beautifully and brightly

"Oh? Really?" Xavier immediately pulled Jasmine's chin, made the woman look back at him, then put on a slanted smile as if locking the gaze of the woman in front of him. "Why do I see your cheeks blushing like tomatoes ready to be harvested. Why could that be?" Xavier asked as he put on a seductive series, looking straight at Jasmine's adorable face as if the woman before him was his own prey.

"It's so exciting, like a teenager who's just first tasted the feeling of falling in love," teased Xavier again, chuckling little at Jasmine.

Instead of fighting back quickly, Jasmine instead chose to turn her gaze the other way, instead, feeling reluctant to keep staring at Xavier who constantly and continuously looked back at him with a gaze that looked completely intense half-dead. "What the fuck are you? Unhand me!" Jasmine brushed aside Xavier's hand, then let out a long sigh. "If I were to say that I was ashamed, it might be, but still! Stop teasing me in such a silly way!"
