Chapter 1458 To School
After he checked into the hotel, Julian took a keycard and went to the elevator. Jessie was getting dizzier in the elevator and rested her head on Julian’s shoulder. He looked down and saw her full, luscious lips. For some reason, it aroused him a little.
He turned away his gaze from her tempting lips to regain focus, and the elevator door swung open soon after. Though, he realized the girl beside him couldn’t even be bothered to walk anymore.
“My head is spinning,” she muttered. Julian had no choice but to pick her up; holding her up was a hassle but carrying her was not.
Jessie kept her weight under control, thanks to her job. And she was a dancer, too. Julian thought she felt light and soft as he carried her in his arms.
Once they reached their room, he opened the door and put her on the bed. Jessie still had her arms wrapped around his neck as he laid her down, so he ended up getting pulled toward her. Her face was only millimeters away from his. They were so close to each other that he could even hear her breathing. “Miss Silverstein, let go,” he whispered.
“Oh!” Jessie let go of him quickly upon realizing she was still hugging his neck.
While Julian felt his heart racing a mile, the drunken lady didn’t think much of the incident that transpired just now and fell asleep soon after.
Julian stayed with her in case anything was to happen.
Meanwhile, Nigel and Queenie were on the top floor enjoying the view, or rather, they were making out. Kissing their lover under the starry sky was the most memorable thing that ever happened to them.
As they were getting lovey-dovey with each other, Queenie received a call from her parents and felt rather embarrassed for a few moments. Then, she and Nigel headed for the elevator.
Nigel called Julian and asked him where Jessie was. After a short while, they showed up in the room.
After getting drunk, all Jessie wanted to do was sleep. Even with Julian beside her, she didn’t wake up at all. Though, she would have felt embarrassed if she did.
Queenie stayed back to keep an eye on her while the gentlemen left. The Silversteins stayed at the hotel for the night, with the parents sharing a room while Queenie and Jessie shared another.
Morning came, and Jessie woke up with a little hangover. Queenie, who was lying on the bed beside her, sat up and asked, “How do you feel, Jessie?”
“Queenie, how did I get here?” She had forgotten what had happened last night.
Queenie smirked teasingly. “Think long and hard. Someone took you back here.”
“Was it you?”
She shook her head. “No. Think harder.”
Jessie blinked and tilted her head. She then remembered hugging Julian’s neck, and it made her blush. That piece of memory made her remember everything that had happened, and she was overcome by mortification. I can’t believe I did that in front of Julian.
The Silversteins had lunch at the hotel and went back home after that.
Jessie’s room was refurbished. Julian called her that afternoon, telling her he had registered her for the performance class at Averna University’s School of Performance Arts. The class would last for a week. He wanted her to build up some basics for her debut.
Jessie was touched by what he did for her. She promised she would study hard and not let him down.
Brandon felt healthier than ever after finding his missing daughter. He returned to the company and told Queenie to spend some time handling her wedding.
The next morning, Queenie took Jessie to school. She had to stay there for a whole day, so Queenie went to see Nigel. They were deeply in love. Not seeing each other for an hour felt like an eternity.
Jessie reported for class. Thanks to Julian’s arrangement, she had made it to the classroom without a hitch.
