His Addiction

Chapter 11 ✔

Gina's POV

I groan loudly as my alarm blared waking me up from my peaceful sleep, I pry my eyes open and put off the alarm looking at the time 6am, being the usual time I wake up at my apartment to get ready and come to work, I had forgotten to reset the time yesterday before going to bed. Since I'm already in Jaxon's house I decide to go back to sleep for an extra hour before I wake up to get ready.

I toss and turn on the bed trying to go back to sleep but I couldn't, I become really frustrated and then i give up, I stand up going to the bathroom to pee and brush my teeth and then I decide to go downstairs to the kitchen to make myself an early breakfast but  then memories of my encounter with Jaxon last night flood my head and I blush giggling like a school girl. I regain my composure after a few seconds and pick out a kimono to cover up my scanty nightwear to avoid any sort of embarrassing encounter with anyone again and tying it tightly to the front.

As I make my way downstairs I hear footsteps of someone descending the stairs above me so I pause thinking it's Jaxon but then I see a tall model like blonde coming down the stairs towards me. Her makeup is smudged and her hair and clothes are disheveled but besides that she's really beautiful, I put two and two together and realize that she's one of Jaxon's conquests and my heart shatters at the thought.

When her eyes finally lands on me, she gives me a contempt filled stare. "And who do we have here? Who are you?" She asks, quirking one of her eyebrows up and scoffs. I frown at her as I hear Jaxon descending the stairs, he gets to where we are and pauses to look at me as his eyebrows furrows and his forehead creases,before sighing inaudibly and then looks at Blondie who suddenly starts laughing hysterically.

"Ooouu, Jaxon Jaxon Jaxon, don't tell me you had her too last night after you were done with me. Just how much of a freak are you?" She sings after her laughter died down. My eyes widen in horror and my heart breaks even more at what Blondie just said. Jaxon sees the look on my face and his cold facade falters for a bit as a look of guilt crosses his face.

"Wow..... And now you're kicking me out of your house like a cheap whore while this elephant is walking around like she owns the place!!" She screeches, while I cringe at her high pitched voice. She called me an elephant. I take a look at Jaxon who looks bored still staring at Blondie who has now broken into a fit of sobs murmuring incoherent words of how Jaxon used her and all.

I couldn't believe I let myself fall for his tricks last night, I feel dirty and stupid and used and I don't realize when the tears that had welled up in my eyes start to fall freely. I look at Jaxon through blurry eyes seeing that he's already looking at me and his features were a lot more hardened than before.

I turn around going down the rest of the stairs to the kitchen, I pack every snacks and drinks I could possibly find into a plastic bag and exit the kitchen to my room. As I get to the spot where I left Jaxon and Blondie I didn't see them there to which I heave a huge sigh of relief because it would've been awkward to walk past them like this.

I get to my room and open all the snacks and begin stuffing my face as I cry. The more I cry, the more I eat then I fall asleep and lost track of time, when I wake up I immediately check the time and it's almost noon. OMG!!!! What do I do??  I panic standing up in a rush to clean my room and take a shower.

After I'm done, I put on my uniform and go downstairs to the kitchen and there I meet Carla, Lauren, Marco and Mr Humphreys and I greet them all and tell them I wasn't feeling too good this morning and that's why I didn't resume to work on time they listened giving me looks of concern seeing how puffy my face looks due to all the crying and eating I did.

They all leave Marco and I in kitchen as I eat my lunch while Marco is preparing dinner. Mr Humphreys comes in to inform me that Jaxon has sent for me, so I hurriedly finish my food and head upstairs. How come he's still at home by this time, did he not go to work today? I wonder as I move towards the direction of his study. I tap lightly on his door and I hear his voice telling me to come in. I walk into his study where he's seated behind his desk typing away on his apple computer.

I greet him while moving closer to his desk, he looks up at me directing me with his eyes to pick up an envelop on his desk and I do so tearing open the envelop and revealing the letter inside. I open and begin to read through, my eyes grow wide in shock at the content of the letter.

"What the hell?" I let out and he looks up at me raising one of his eyebrows in warning of my language but as usual I couldn't care less. "What do you take me for huh? Do you think I'm one of your whores that you can trash as you please?" I scoff angrily. "After all you said to me yesterday, after what I encountered this morning, you are firing me, I freaking trusted you and this is what I get?" I laugh humorlessly throwing my head back and clapping then I stop abruptly and harden my features.

"Who the fuck are you huh!? Because you are my boss, you think you own me huh?? Well if this is all I get then fine..... I don't even give a fuck anymore, I'll leave your stupid fucking house." I tear up the letter and throwing it on the floor and storm out of his office as tears well up in my eyes and I begin to sob loudly.

I get to my room and start packing my belongings hurriedly, I take off the uniform and get into my regular clothes. I drag my luggage downstairs and enter to the kitchen where everyone is gathered once again with solemn looks on their faces and I know they are all aware of what just happened.

Mr humphreys hands me an envelop, I look inside and there is cash in it and I look back up at him. "Its your salary and a little extra from all of us to help you get somewhere to stay, I'm very sorry Gina" Mr Humphreys explain giving me a hug, then they all take turns hugging me and patting my back or giving me words of comfort.

"Puedo ver su teléfono calabaza?" Marco says to me and I look at him as furrowing my brows in confusion. "I said can I see your phone pumpkin?" he translates with a sad smile and I let out an oh taking my phone from my bag pack handing it to him, he begins operating my phone as I stand there silently looking at him.

He gives me back my phone which indicated that he saved his number on it and also took mine, I give him a small smile then turn towards Carla who is talking to Lauren and tell them that I'm now leaving and they both nod sadly. I grab my luggage making my way out of Jaxon's mansion.

Once I'm outside the gate, the cab I had called earlier in my room was already waiting on me and I enter giving him directions to take me to a cheap hotel where I'm going to stay temporarily until I find another apartment, I open my bag pack and take out the envelop Mr Humphreys had given me to count the money in it, and the total amount is ten thousand dollars.

I could get a place a to stay and still have plenty of reserve and besides I still have some money left from my previous savings. Then my phone beeps and I pick it up seeing an email alert of money being deposited in my account, the sum of $20,000 from Jaxon Moore and I gasp.

What in the actual fuck!? Does he think I'm a whore or something, Is this some kind of pay off? I scoff in anger. I know the whole money I have is too much but it's too late to return it now and I also need as much money as I can get since I'm currently jobless and homeless.

I couldn't control the tears that now falls from my eyes as I think about everything that happened since last night. I decide to calm down after a while, seeing as the driver has been giving me worried glances from the rearview mirror.

We finally get to the hotel, it isn't anything big or fancy and I don't expect it to be. I pay off the driver and  drag my suitcases inside to the reception meeting an elderly woman who I suppose runs the hotel, I pay for my room and take my keys and politely thank the woman before proceeding to my given room.

I get into the room heaving a sigh of frustration, relief, sadness I don't even know which. The room looks decent and clean so that on it's own is a relief. I change out of my jeans and hoodie and put on a tank top and a pair of shorts after settling in and locking the door properly. I take out my snack stash from one of my suitcases getting on the bed turning on the TV.

After hours of watching TV series and crying every time an emotional scene comes up and stuffing my face with snacks I fall asleep with a lot of thoughts on my mind, no matter how much I try to distract myself from thinking about all that happened since last night I still find myself dazed with the turn of events.
I wish...I really wish I never met Jaxon Moore.
