Chapter 263: ERROR Chapter

THIS CHAOTER IS AN ERROR.

“You can try to escape on your own! I won’t help you !” Her said sternly letting me know he had no interest in getting involved. “But don’t say I didn’t warn you when you get caught.”

“Quiet in the re whats going on!” The bodyguards shouted from outside. I quickly ran to my bed and got under my covers.

My lips pressed together and I felt sad that he wouldn’t help but I wasn’t surprised. I had a feeling he was going to say no. So I was going to have to do it all on my own.

From the unclear founding of company and then the Bitcoin transactions. These individuals were old, calculating and clever.

I relayed everything to Jasmine at dinner later when we returned to the estate.

After I was done eating then stood up from the dining table in reality but we weren’t there yet.

“Goodnight,” I said to her as usually

“Goodnight, Keith,” she said back to me. I still found it strange how agreeable she was being lately. It was small in the grand scheme of things. She still strictly talked to me about the investigation, it’s not like she was making small talk to me.

I left the finishing as I contemplated about how the day had gone and Jasmine.

Upon entering my room to wash up for the night I sat down on my bed as my thoughts settled in particular on Jasmine. What was I going to do about her? It made no sense.

My mind was still in a jumble thinking about whether I was overthinking things or not. Is this a trick Jasmine was playing on me or was she actually opening up to me? If the Carrington had in fact rejected her then it would make sense why she was suddenly more tolerant as well.

I sat on my bed and then opened the drawer by my bedside table. Inside was Jasmine’s phone which I kept switched off. My lips pressed together as I wondered if this would be a good idea. I debated for a minute.

I could test her. Find out what her motives are. I would monitor her activity. Based on what she did once she received her phone that would tell me a lot about her intentions. If she did something that I found threatening I could quickly pull it back. With the conservatorship in full swing until we caught the culprit there was nothing Jasmine could legally do or report

“Keith do you really have to go this far? You’re treating me worse than a child,” I recalled her words to me the other day after I caught her when she escaped.

Again it’s not like I wanted to keep things tense between us forever. This could also be a good opportunity to improve our relationship to improve and further

JASMINE’S POV

The following morning I was slumped on the couch in my seating area of my room working away. I had been working through out the night I couldn’t sleep at all. I was already having trouble sleeping but after seeing those images of Tony it was getting worse.

Nurse Anne soon came into my room to do her daily morning check up on me. As she came to the seating area in my room she placed something on the table before me.

“What’s this?” I asked as I curiously looked at the table and saw it was a phone…my phone and a laptop.

“Mr Acland said he would like to give these to you,” she told me.

My eyes widened in surprise.

Looks like Keith took the bait… My lips curved into a small smile. A lot sooner than I expected, though. I thought it would take at least a couple of more days before he gave it back to me. Perhaps it was due to my breakdown after the ransom note 2 days ago? I recalled how strongly he’d reacted to my breakdowns. Regardless, I was grateful for the opening.

Anne did her check up on me helped me get ready for the day and then I left my room I could go to the Acland HQ.

I thought of what to do. He was obviously going to be monitoring my phones activity that was a given.

I met him in the foyer after breakfast. My leg was feeling a lot better and I could move around with more ease. I met him waiting for me there.

“You returned my phone?” I asked him wondering what he would say about it.

“I thought it would make it easier for you as we go through this,” he told me.

“I see,” I accepted his words choosing not to make any further remarks. He wouldn’t like them anyway. “Thank you.

After seeing the folder with all those pictures of me in his office something had struck me. I thought something was strange. This whole time I thought he was keeping me against my will and got the conservatorship over me for his pride, reputation and just to control the situation surrounding our divorce. That he just wanted to hide his embarrassment over everything that had happened. Same with when he was fighting for joint custody over Tony.

However, seeing just how long he had been stalking me from the pictures surprised me. It put into perspective just how long and deep this obsession had been going on for. If it was just a control thing he wouldn’t have done all that. So there had to be more to it. And he confirmed my suspicions over the course of the last few days.

I had slowly been softening up to him since he seems to pay a lot of attention to me and see his reactions. I started doing small things like saying goodnight to him, reducing my hostility towards him, allowing him to comfort me when I was upset.

I wasn’t sure what the results would be but I thought softening up would be a good approach. He was always ready to help me walk, comfort me, he always hovered around me.

Screaming and yelling at him everyday isn’t getting me anywhere so why not change the strategy? If I wanted to escape I had to make him lower his guard and this was my best bet.
