Chapter 140

Jon decided to get a cab, hoping it would keep the paparazzi at bay. They both had shades on to assure some privacy.

The assistant at the jewellers recognised Jon immediately and fell over each other to please the star.

Cheyenne wanted something simple, but Jon didn’t agree with her. She eventually let him choose a couple and chose from the collection he kept to one side.

The prices of the rings made her feel quite nauseous and when she opened her mouth to say something, his head whipped up and gave her a don’t fuck –with- me- stare.

They settled on a simple yet exquisite platinum setting. Cheyenne had a huge lump in her throat and gave a relieved sigh when she saw him slipping it in his pocket.

She wasn’t ready to wear it just yet.

He walked out into the sunlight, hailed a cab and took her to an intimate little shop for brunch. Her stomach was growling and she gave him a punch when he chuckled at her tummy’s sounds.

“Don’t laugh, you are starving me!”

He was obviously a regular cause the waitress seated him in the private dining room without him even asking.

As soon as they sat down he took her hand in his.

“I’ve been thinking about what you said, and I realised you were right. I think it’s only fair to introduce you to my family before I ask you the big question, officially. I know the kids would be happy for us. Romeo is definitely on your side, as for the rest I know they like you very much. If it depended on me I would have this ring on your finger right now and fuck the world. But it’s your first time and I want to do this right. This is my last time I’m giving it a go and I want it to count. So are you willing to stay with me until I’m old and grey?”

Cheyenne batted her eyelids at him.

“But you ARE old already.”

He growled at her, captured her chin in his hand and kissed her thoroughly.

“You are going to be the death of me.”

“But what a way to die..”

His laughter filled the room..

“Oh God you’re precious.”

‘I know”

She kissed him back until he withdrew from her, his breathing unsteady.

Jon looked at the beautiful woman sitting opposite him, she was enjoying her food so much she didn’t even notice the way he looked at her.


She was gorgeous and he loved her. He just didn’t understand the jealousy and possessiveness he felt towards Cheyenne. He’s not that kind of guy. But he just wanted to protect her and love her and keep her from harm. He felt real shitty about the way he treated her the night before. She didn’t deserve it and after a good night’s rest he realised that he was wrong and a HUGE fucking idiot.

She looked up at him.

“What are you looking at? Never seen a woman enjoy her meal?

“Baby…if you don’t stop soon I’m afraid you’ll eat the plate as well.”

“Well you starved me, remember? I think you have enough money to pay for the plate if I feel the need to eat it or smash it over your head.” She batted her eyelids at him.
