When You Are Mine
Chapter 198 - Like My Queen
Jake's eyes almost popped out of its sockets when he saw Jade walk out. He couldn't move himself or blink, as he was too enthralled by her. He wasn't supposed to be this surprised by how pretty she looked, because she always looked beautiful every time. He had no clue how she constantly dazzles him with her beauty everytime he sees her.
His eyes trailed from her hair which fell freely below her shoulders, to her perfectly made up face. Her make up was light and natural, but it highlighted every of her facial features, making them more prominent. Her pointed nose looked more pointy, her brows were neat, and her dark long eyelashes made her eyes look beautiful, and her lips, one of the part of her body which he liked so much was currently glossy and was calling for his attention.
The red sequin embellished long sheath gown with strap hands and a side slit accentuated her every curve. The low neck line reaveled a portion of her perfect silk skin, and her neck was bare of any jewelry and it was perfect for his plans for later. He already knew she was going to look pretty in the dress, as a matter of fact she looked beautiful in whatever she wears, but he wasn't expecting her to look this enchanting.
Her gold sandal heels which she paired with a small gold clutch made her outfit look perfect. When he picked this gown for her, he was sure she'll look beautiful in it but now, his angel has rendered him speechless.
"Jake....say some.. thing" Jade said in a soft and nervous tone. She didn't want to dissapoint him, especially since he picked out the gown for her.
"Sist I think you smashed his brain" Kevin whispered much to everyone's hearing.
Jake slowly stood up and walked closer to her, his gaze fixed on her and her alone. Every other person in the room faded into the back ground.
"You..look" He didn't even know the word to use at the moment. Because all the thesaurus words of 'pretty' didn't cover how she looked right now.
"Like my queen" He said, making Jade blush. She didn't expect him to say that, especially in the presence of her mother.
"You look...kingly" She said as she blushed more. Jake was indeed looking handsome in his white Armani suit which he wore over his a black shirt and a black pant. The gold which lined the side of his jacket matched with her gold shoes and clutch.
"Okay that's too cheesy" Kevin cried out as he walked back to the sofa. While Amy wrapped her arm around Grace's shoulder as they stood by the side, appreciating the lovely couple.
"They look like a real couple, and like they're madly in love" Amy said softly into Grace's ear, while she nodded in response. She could see the happiness in her daughter's eyes and it made her happy too.
Amy couldn't take it any longer when Jade and Jake continued to stare at each other like love struck fools.
"Hey, enough with all the PDAs. Get out of here and stop harrassing single people like me" She snapped, making them stare at her in embarrassment.
"Sorry boss" Amy quickly apologized when she met Jake's gaze, making him chuckle.
He turned back to Jade and asked, " Are you ready to go?" While Jade nodded.
He turned to look at Grace "Thanks for the hospitality. I promise to take good care of her and return her in one piece" He said making Grace nod her head.
"Okay, you guys just have fun" Grace replied.
"And send me alot of pictures" Amy added.
"If you want pictures you should have agreed to come too" Jade said as she eyed her.
She had asked Amy to come along, when she found out it was a charity ball hosted by their company yearly. She wanted Amy to come along so she wouldn't be bored when Jake busied himself with several rounds of greeting. And it would be nice to have someone she was familiar with, but Amy had turned her down and said she was already had plans of attending a party with Ethan.
She was choosing Ethan over her. She was going to get back at Amy for this.
"Don't be such a baby. You have the president beside you, you don't need small flies like me" Amy said, making Jade glare at her, while Jake chuckled about her babyish she was acting.
"Comeon let's go" Jake said before leading her out of the apartment.
He held her hand as she walked down the porche. He stopped walking when Jade walked ahead. Jade paused and turned around when she noticed he has stopped walking.
Cocking a brow at him, she asked, "Is something wrong?"
"Baby can we not go" He said gently, his eyes trailing down her body again.
"What? Why?" Jade asked in confusion. Why has he suddenly changed his mind.
Jake walked closer till they were only a foot away. How could he tell her he didn't want them to go because he didn't want other men to look at her. She was an irresistible sight, and right now she was more than irresistible.
He sighed. "Just stay by side all night. You can't look at anyone else, but me okay" He said. Jade smiled when she caught a hint of what his hesitation was all about.
"Jealousy doesn't suit you Mr Jake. But if it will make you happy, I'll focus all my attention on you alone" She assured him.
"Just so you know I'm not Jealous, I'm just being protective of my woman"
"More like possessive" Jade teased him.
"Whatever. At least it's you I'm being possessive off"
"Mmm. So can we go now?" Jade finally asked, and he nodded affirmatively.
He walked to the passengers side and held the door for her. He walked to his side and turned on the ignition before driving off.
Soon they arrived the venue of the charity ball. Jade parked the car before he turned to the pretty lady who was sitted by his side.
"Ready to meet your idol?" He asked, making Jade turn to look at him. For a moment there she had forgotten about the deal they had, to introduce her to the person behind the ProGuard project.
When Jade nodded her head, Jake couldn't help but smile.
"You can't drool over him when you see him"
Jade narrowed her brows at him. Why was she going to drool over another man?
"Why do you say that?" Jade asked back.
"Because he's a very handsome man, I can assure you that. And I also know my girlfriend has a spot for handsome guys. So no drooling" He teased, while Jade frowned at him.
"FYI I don't drool over every handsome guy I see, I'm not a pervert" She refuted, rolling her eyes at him. Was he trying to spoil her mood?
"Well the Jade Peterson I know who also happens to be my girlfriend, always drool over me"
"Yeah, thank God you're not the guy who made ProGuard or are you?" She asked with a sarcastic tone.
His eyes trailed from her hair which fell freely below her shoulders, to her perfectly made up face. Her make up was light and natural, but it highlighted every of her facial features, making them more prominent. Her pointed nose looked more pointy, her brows were neat, and her dark long eyelashes made her eyes look beautiful, and her lips, one of the part of her body which he liked so much was currently glossy and was calling for his attention.
