Chapter 39 Who?
"Rose is such a nice name, do you own this place?" Jack asked with a friendly smile on his face.
"No, I don't own this place, I just work here." She said with a smile on her face.
Another panel flashed in front of Jack.
[1. Tip her a hundred dollars. (+ 20 Ero meter.)
2. Don't tip her. (+0 Ero points.)]
Selecting the first option, Jack waited for the bill.
Soon enough it was in front of him, on the screen. It was about 500 dollars.
Jack smiled and pulled out his debit card, and added a hundred dollars in tip for her.
Rose looked at the money and her eyes widened.
"This is a lot, I can't have it..." She said, however, there was a huge smile on her face contrary to her words.
"I think you deserve it," Jack replied with a smile.
"For real? Thank you so much. Can I hug you?" Rose came out of the counter and hugged Jack.
Jack could smell her sweet scent as she moved closer to him, she was elegant with her every move.
His eyes then landed on her Ero Meter which stayed at thirty points.
Soon another Panel flashed in front of him as she backed away after hugging him.
[1. "Can I have your number?" (+10 Ero points.)
2. Walk out of the shop, after taking the items. (-10 Ero Points.)]
After taking the handbag filled with goodies, Jack took his phone out.
"By the way, I was wondering if I can have your number." He said with a slight lean towards her.
His deep black eyes started in hers.
Rose smiled with a slight blush on her face, "Sure why not, you can tell me if you have any problems with our products."
[1. "I am not taking your number just for your products." (+10 Ero points.)
2. "Yes, I will give some feedback." (-20 Ero points.)]
Jack chuckled looking at the options and choosing the first one.
A sneaky smile formed on his face as looked at her.
"I am not taking your number just for your products." He said and winked at her.
She listened to him and moved her gaze away from him, an embarrassing look appeared on her face.
This was the first time someone has approached her this way.
She usually gets approached a lot because of her beauty, and most of the time many of the guys that try to hit on her hide their intentions behind their friendly facade.
And she hated those kinds of guys.
She could tell what was going through their mind and how they are trying to hide it, she would much prefer a guy that was honest in his intentions.
And now someone like that was in front of her.
His words just now cleared up why he wanted her number and that made her heart skip a beat.
'He is so blatant! Not like other guys that try to bend around the topic.'
She thought and looked at him again.
Jack smiled at her attitude and gave his phone to her.
"Here you can type it in."
After taking the number he left the shop.
Rose looked at his departing back and saw the tip he has given him.
'Is he interested in me? He must have a girlfriend, that's why he must be buying that stuff right?'
'Or is he buying them for himself?' her blush deepened at the second thought.
'I am so stupid! He is just a playboy!' She concluded and took her phone out.
She had given him her number and not taken him, so now she has to wait for his message to talk to him again.
'I should have taken his number too. He is such a bad boy.' She thought and placed the phone back in her pocket and started attending to other customers.
Jack on the other hand left the shop with a proud smile on his face, this was the first time he has gotten a number of a random girl.
Putting the bag full of sex toys in the back seat of his car, he called Nicole.
Soon she picked up.
"Where are you?" Jack asked.
"Where do you think I would be at this time of the day?" She said in a grumpy tone.
Jack smiled.
"Close the shop and come to the apartment."
"Hmph! No way, I can't close the shop every other day. I don't even have staff after you left."
"You are still gonna act so disobediently?" Jack said with an evil smile on his face.
"I will come after eight." She said with an angry snort.
"Ok." Jack also didn't wanna pester her too much.
He knew that she closed the shop at eight in the evening and he was free too, so it would not burden both of them if she came after eight.
He looked at his watch and it was still late morning, so he has lots of time before Nicole comes to his apartment.
"What should I do till then." He thought and scrolled through his phone.
He wanted to find a luxury restaurant to eat some food.
Soon enough he found one and started heading towards it.
After eating the food he got out of the restaurant, and after that, he looked through the city, to buy some gifts for Nicole.
While moving through the place his eyes landed on a jewelry shop.
'A necklace would be good for her.' Entering the shop he brought a diamond necklace that was not too flashy.
It was minimal with a single diamond and looked elegant with the shiny platinum chain.
After that, he went to a massage parlor to get a massage and then he tried out some climbing gyms in his area.
Soon enough sun started setting and a red hue covered the sky.
Nicole looked out of the shop and a blush formed on her face.
She remembered the promise she made to Jack.
'This guy! He knows how to lead me with his fingertips.'
She has never acted this way in the past, it's like he has a power that brings her inner true self out.
She felt truly like herself when she is with him like she could drop all her facades and mask and becomes one with her reality.
And this was truly addictive to her, she wanted to be with him more than anyone now.
And although she acted hard to get, it was all because of fear, a fear she have that he will abandon her if she become too clingy to him.
He might dislike her for being too clingy.
Putting her thoughts aside she looked forwards to meeting him.
Soon enough the sun settled down completely and night covered the sky.
Nicole move out of her shop and after closing it up she started moving towards his apartment.
Jack was already at his apartment, he was just out of the bathroom when he heard the doorbell sound.
"It must be her." he thought and quickly moved toward the door with a white towel wrapped against his waist.
However, to his surprise, it wasn't Nicole as he expected but, Cassie was standing outside the door.
And when she saw him just in a towel a smile formed on her face.
"Let me take a bath too." She said and tried to move inside the apartment.
However, Jack blocked her way.
"You came back?"
"Yes, turns out, our parents are already taking good care of Meadow and they didn't seem to need me." She said and tried to move in again.
However, blocked by him this time too.
She raised her brows in annoyance, he has never stopped her from entering the apartment.
"Let me go in, I want to stay at your apartment today."
"No, you can't," Jack said with a sigh.
He knew a situation like this would occur sooner or later.
"Why?" Cassie asked with an annoyed expression.
"Someone else is coming over," Jack said.
He didn't wanna keep her in the dark, that was one of the reasons he didn't commit to her.
He knew that committing to any single girl was not possible for him, now that he has a cheat.
If it was before then he might have considered it, however now that he has the power, he wanted to taste it a little before settling down with anyone.
And he also wants to keep things clear to his girls so he doesn't have to play hide and seek in the future.
"Who?" Cassie asked with a choked voice and her heart skipping a beat.
She has previously seen him kissing that busty lady and after that, she forgot about that incident.
Her gaze moved over to his face and a pang of pain moved through her heart when realization dawned on her.
In the last few days, they have been so intimate with each other that she forgot about the incident.
And how both of them were not girlfriend and boyfriend.
She wanted to stop him, however, can't bring herself to do it.
As she felt no right over him.
