Entwined Hearts A Billionaire Romance

As the hush of morning fell, whispers of mischief danced across the soft light filtering through the windows.

"Jasmine, breakfast is ready". Jade's voice cut sharp through the quiet, resounding across the house.

 "Got it coming!" Jasmine responded chirpily while her voice still tinged with sleep. She stretched out lazily, feeling the cool air brush against her skin as she pulled herself up from bed.

"Let me shower now," she mumbled while removing her clothes and stepping into the bathroom, turning on the water before pouring soap into the bathtub.

 The warm water surrounded her, washing away a tidal wave of calmness over her.

Finally, some peace, she thought while brushing her teeth as the hot water soothed the throbbing headache that lingered on her, her body drying with each part of her towel. 

No sooner was she near the closet than the door swung open with a bang.

"Jasmine We have been waiting for so long. Come on so that we can finally have some breakfast!" 

Jayla hastened in, frustration laced in her voice. "Almost done, be right there" Jasmine sighed, watching as Jayla exited, still fuming. 

She headed downstairs already shifting to the day ahead where the rest of the family were seated in the dining room, waiting for her.

Her mom looked up, a trace of impatience in her eyes. 

"Spurt ahead, We've been waiting for you so we can get started." 

"Good morning, Mom and Dad. Sorry for the delay. I woke up with a slight headache," Jasmine explained as she took her seat ignoring the tension that hung in the air.

Her parents exchanged a glance before responding, "No worries. Hope you're feeling better now, much better, thanks," offering a small smile.

Jayla rolled her eyes; impatience was written across her face. 

"Can we eat now, please? I am famished!" she said, already reaching for the toast.

She then turned to her father. 

"Dad, can I have your credit card? I want to go shopping at the Louis Vuitton mall. They've got a new collection of bags that I would love to have."

 Looking up from his plate, he nodded with a smile, "Sure sweetie, anything for my girls." 

Jade, ever the thinker, suddenly spoke up, "You know, it just came to me; what if the Earth suddenly stopped rotating?"

Jasmine rolled her eyes. "Not this again, she said. Just stop. We know you're a nerd."

Jade shot back unfazed, "Being a nerd isn't a bad thing, you know." 

The tension in the room thickened and Jayla quickly intervened, "Please, no argument. Let's not start this again. Want to come shopping with me?"

Jayla asked, turning toward Jade with hopeful eyes.

"Yeah, sure. I need a new top for next weekend anyway," Jade replied, as the earlier tension dissipated.

The sisters exited the dining room, headed to the Car, and turned on the sound system, playing a step ahead of Kygo's "It Ain't Me." It was their favorite-one that set them to have a carefree day. 

They started singing, their voice harmonising to the upbeat melody as they prepped for a day of indulgence.

Later that morning, they pulled up to the Golden Oaks Mall, with its smooth, cream-colored marble floors reflecting the crystal chandeliers overhead, with lush greenery adding a touch of elegance to the opulent scene.

A security guard opened the door with a slight bow. 

"Good morning, ladies," he greeted as the workers in the store nodded in familiarity, no doubt remembering them and their wealth from many other visits like this one.

"I'll catch up with you in a bit," Jade said as they entered the mall.

Jayla nodded and headed toward the Louis Vuitton store. 

As she came nearer to where the sales receptionist was seated, the lady greeted her warmly. "Welcome, Ms. Jayla. How may I assist you today?"

Jayla smiled. "I'd love to see your limited edition handbags, please."

The receptionist nodded and went to the counter to retrieve the collection.

A tall, handsome man carrying an array of expensive dresses approached just then. 

Jayla turned, and her breath caught in her throat as their eyes met. *Who is he?* she wondered.

"Woah, your girlfriend must be so lucky," Jayla blurted out, her voice barely above whisper level, unable to hide her curiosity.

He turned out a charming smile. "Why do you say that?"
