Fated love: the unwanted bride - Chapter 527
Chapter 527: Chapter 527: Never in a Lifetime
The sun was pouring down.
From upstairs, she saw Joe Heath looking up, waving her off as she left for the office.
With his hands in his coat pockets, his tall frame and handsome face were quite the sight.
Jasmine Yale waved from the window, indicating for him to head back.
Joe Heath saw her gesture and waived back.
Joe felt quite happy inside. In the past, whenever he saw Jasmine off, she never once looked back at him.
But today was different.
She must have also felt his longing for her.
In Jasmine’s hand was a cute rabbit keychain, a gift Joe Heath had just given her at the dining table.
The white, cute rabbit was fluffy and adorable, just like a little ball.
The trinket wasn’t valuable, but she liked it very much.
Upon reaching her floor, Jasmine received a call from Joe Heath.
“I’ve left. You work hard. I will also work hard to earn money to support you,” Joe said this in an unusually gentle tone.
Jasmine laughed.
She put the rabbit in front of her desk.
She looked at the big eyes of the cute rabbit, and it “looked” back at her.
“Jasmine, shall we go shopping today? The New Year is coming, and I want to buy some new clothes.” Xara walked over, “Just in time for the bonus.”
“Sure, let’s go together,” Jasmine replied.
However, she did not anticipate who she would meet on her way home from shopping that evening.
Night fell and her residential area was strewn with festive lights.
Jasmine was following the street lamps home.
Kaine Zahir suddenly appeared in front of her.
“Jasmine,” he croaked.
His eyes were dull, and his face was worn.
Jasmine was startled and stepped back, “How do you know I live here?”
Kaine Zahir did not reply.
“Did you come to see me?” Jasmine asked with indifference.
No matter what, he was her father, and he would not harm her.
But his family was heartless, and she didn’t dare get too close to Kaine Zahir.
“Yes,” Kaine nodded, “I haven’t seen you for several months, Jasmine. You’ve become more beautiful.”
“If you have something to say, just say it.”
“It is about Aunt Gari and Kamila. They are still in jail. Can you beg Mr. Cheney to let them out? I promise you, I will take them away from Landon.”
Kaine was anxious.
“Sorry, I don’t care about them.”
“They’ve never had to suffer like this, Jasmine. Please beg Mr. Cheney, can’t you do that?”
“I have no ties with Mr. Cheney, how many times do I need to tell you?” Jasmine was furious.
She couldn’t possibly beg Sylvan Cheney.
Never ever in her life.
She and he, they had no relation anymore.
“Jasmine, you know Mr. Cheney, please help us. We don’t know anyone in Landon, only you. Can you do this for the sake of the eight years I spent raising you?”
“Where were you when Nancy Emmett dumped me at the roadside and I nearly starved to death?”
Jasmine looked at him, her eyes red.
She didn’t want to mention the past.
But each time she did, she was the one that got hurt.
“I… I really didn’t know about that…” Kaine was a bit incoherent and frantic, “Jasmine, in hindsight, isn’t it a good thing that you’ve met Mr. Cheney…”
“Kaine Zahir, don’t use your thinking to judge me!” Jasmine lost her temper.
These words were too shameless.
“Jasmine, Mr. Cheney can surely save Aunt Gari and Kamila, please beg him…”
“Stop pestering me! Seriously, I can’t do it. I’ve already rejected you. Why do you have to force me?” Jasmine’s face darkened.
