บท 20: Chapter 20

Jasmine's POV

I felt like my brain was doing somersaults off the walls in my head and I couldn't comprehend as to why Bradley disappeared right after I asked him for the money to help save my mom whose condition was being critical.

He said he would have given me the money. He looked sincere enough when I told him about my mother's health.

But he was gone. No phone calls, no texts, no emails. He just upped and left.

It was the beginning of yet another week. I was at my desk, arranging the files Mr. Hollen had asked for since three hours ago. Putting my emotions aside, I focused on the task at hand.

"Here are the files you asked for." I said as I entered my boss' office and walked up to his desk.

His eyes were locked onto the computer screen in front of him, avoiding eye contact with me.

"Mr. Hollen..."

"Then leave it on the desk and get out!" He plastered, cutting me off and catching me by surprise.

I made two steps back. His eyes never left the screen.
