*.*.*.*

"Boss, you are on the news" The voice at the other end said immediately.

Tyler clenched his fist in anger.

It was all because of that beach, once her gets her , she'll regret ever meeting him.

"Boss??" The voice called when he didn't say anything.

"I want you to take down anything that has to do with me on the news, now"

" Yes Boss"

" And investigate on the waitress at that restaurant, I think her name is Jasmine or something close to that"

" Yes boss"

"I should expect something latest by tomorrow"

" Boss?"

" What? You can't do it? " He snapped.

" No Boss"

"Good, don't call unless you have something" He added and hung up.

He placed his phone on the table and turned to Gael , who was scrolling through his phone with an amused look on his face.

"What's that?" He asked curiously.

Gael turned to him almost immediately.

"Dude, you really pushed that girl"

"At a point she was actually contemplating whether to empty the glass on your head or not , it clearly showed on her face" Gael added between laughters.

He rolled his eyes.

" The whole nation is talking about it, some are supporting you while others are sucidal comments" Gael added.

" Don't these people have any work to do? " Tyler sneered.

Just how many hours and it was already trending , he just hoped it wouldn't affect his reputation. It was like his life was monitored by the internet.

"Look, this one said -From the look of things , Tyler should learn how to talk to people , especially WOMEN - "

" Another said - she's just an ordinary waitress and she disrespected Tyler Pierce?? She's so in for it - "

"Okay another - I see y'all love Tyler, no offense though, but he's a real JERK - oh and this one sa-"

"Stop! " he snapped , cutting Gael off.

"I don't want to hear anymore" he added.

" Fine" Geal muttered and put his phone away.

"So , what are you planning on doing with this *waitress* why'd you ask Daniel for all her information? " Gael asked , raising his brows suspiciously.

" Well , so many things "He muttered smugly.

"I'm going to do so much , she'll regret attending work that day, she'll hate me to the core" He smirked.

" If she had done that to someone and went scot-free, it's not going to happen with me"

" Just please, do not hurt her"

Tyler laughed shortly.

"I don't guarantee that " he muttered.

" But! It all depends on her definition of hurt" he added , a wide smirk forming on his face.

Gael narrowed his eyes.

"Seriously?"

"Nah! I'll just show her what happens to people who talk shit to Tyler Pierce" he replied.

Gael shook his head and took out his phone , he glanced at it shortly before getting on his feet.

"I have to leave now, I have some meetings to attend to"

" I had fun today" Gael added smiling and Tyler knew he was mocking him.

He glared hardly at Gael who only chuckled.

" Okay I'll leave now before you* make me regret* " Gael grinned and headed out.

Tyler sighed as he watched Gael shut the door .

He picked up the telephone and dialed Cherry.

"Sir?" Her voice came up immediately.

"Get someone to clean up the mess in my office and prepare for the board meeting" He ordered and returned the telephone back in place before she could reply.

He glanced quickly at his watch.

The time said forty minutes after four. He had just twenty minutes before the board meeting.

The day was really far gone and today he hadn't achieved a thing.

He had Gael to thank for the wonderful outing.

5:53 PM

JASMINE'S HOUSE

Jasmine walked out of the elevator and made her way towards her own apartment.

"Hey Jasmine" she heard a voice call and she turned immediately.

A small smile formed on her face , seeing it was her next door neighbor, Mrs Watterson and her 6 year daughter with their white furry puppy.

"Mrs Watterson, Carly " she smiled at the older woman and her blonde haired daughter.

She walked over to Carly and pulled her into a small hug before patting the girl's puppy.

"You guys going for a walk?" She asked , finally standing upright.

"Yes , Carly insisted on taking snow for a work" the older woman replied , turning to look at her daughter who was playing with the little dog.

"That reminds me , I haven't seen you in days , hope everything's alright?"

" Yes ma'am, I've just been busy with school and all" Jasmine added with a polite smile.

" Okay dear , my regards to Ana"

"Sure ma'am"

" Bye" Carly waved at the Jasmine with a cute smile .

"Have a nice time" she replied and watched as they walked away with Carly holding the dog to her chest.

She smiled before turning towards her house.

"Jas!" A familiar voice called out and she sighed before turning.

She smiled seeing Myles. He was putting on a white top and Jean trousers , his black hair falling over one side of his face. His lips spread into a thin smile as he walked towards her.

Myles also lived in the building but on the twelfth floor . June was the only one among the three of them who still lived with their parent.

"What's up?" He asked, drapping his hands around her neck.

They walked to her apartment.

"Nothing, you didn't join us for lunch" she pouted as she opened the door to her apartment.

"Sorry , I was sorting somethings with the Dean" he sighed.

He took his hands off her immediately they walked in.

"Sis, you back" Ana called out.

She was seating on the dining chair , doing her homework while eating out of the medium sized box pizza that was opened on the table.

"Did you just come back from school?" Jasmine asked , walking into the kitchen. She grabbed the jar of water and a glass cup.

"Kind of , we had basketball practice" Ana replied.

" You still on the team?" She heard Myles ask.

"What do you take me for? I'm good at it" Ana muttered.

Jasmine poured herself one glass and gulped it down at one go , refilled the jar ,she returned it back into the refrigerator.

She walked out of the kitchen.

A tired sigh escaped her lips as she plopped down tiredly on the couch.

Myles came to sit beside her with a plate of pizza in his hand. He handed her one slice and she collected it , passing him a grateful smile.

Today had been a very hectic day for her , at school and even work but she had fun teaching the Jerk , Tyler a lesson.

A small smirk formed on her face when she remembered his very angry look. She just hoped he wouldn't come after her, that was the least she wanted to happen .

"Sis!" Ana suddenly called out and she looked up at her sister.

"What?"

" Okay, have you checked your social media account this afternoon or evening? " She asked with raised brows.

She rolled her eyes .

" No, why? "

"Uhm, you are trending on the internet Sis!" She half yelled.

Fear seized her immediately.

She hoped it wasn't about the Tyler guy.

"Are you joking with your Jas right now?" Myles asked .

" Seriously Myles?! You of all people?! You've not gone online at all?" Ana shook her head .

" Wait ! Ana, are you serious??" Jasmine asked , shuffling her bag for her phone.

" Check your phone! "

She quickly grabbed her phone and unlocked it , the first notification that popped on the screen almost made her phone fall off her hand.
