No wonder his ascetic, aloof big brother looked at Jasmine Yale differently.
They were walking through the VIP corridor, just the two of them.
Just as Joe Heath was about to drop off Jasmine Yale at the waiting lounge, his phone rang.
“Melody is back in the country, you come home!”
Joe Heath’s face immediately darkened, gloomy and unpleasing.
“What’s it got to do with me if she’s back in the country?” Joe Heath evaded Jasmine Yale, his tone hostile.
“What’s it got to do with you? You can say such a thing?”
Joe Heath chuckled coldly: “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”
“Joe Heath, if you don’t come back home within half an hour, don’t blame me if I make a move.”
Joe Heath’s hand tightened on his phone, his face changed abruptly.
His dad, who never takes action easily, might destabilize his various large entertainment corporations once he takes any action.
He hadn’t taken over the family business for long, his understanding and network in Landon were far less than his dad’s.
Just seeing her, after all, was not the end of the world.
Besides, he had seen her before.
At this stage, confronting his dad would do him no good at all.
“Dad, look, why get so angry with your son over an outsider.” Joe Heath broke into a smile, “I’ll head home right now. Take care of yourself, don’t get angry, I really love you.”
Joe Heath had always been flexible.
Picking a fight with Kaisan Heath, there would certainly be no good coming from it.
After hanging up the phone, Joe Heath snorted coldly.
Walking back into the lounge, he saw Jasmine Yale staring blankly out the window.
He lowered his head, gently stroking her long hair.
“I have an urgency and need to go back for a bit. Don’t worry, someone will take you to board when it’s time.”
“I’ll call you if anything comes up. Once you get there, someone will meet you, so don’t worry.”
Jasmine Yale feels a little better.
“Oh yes, don’t forget to take your cold medicine, take care.”
Jasmine Yale laughed: “Why have you become so nagging?”
Joe Heath waved his hand: “Okay then, I’m leaving.”
“Uh-huh” Jasmine Yale bade him farewell.
Joe Heath kept turning his head to look at her as he walked away, finally disappearing from Jasmine Yale’s sight.
As soon as he left, Jasmine Yale felt the air was filled with quietness.
Only that this quietness was too oppressive.
Jasmine Yale looked at the ticket in her hand, her eyes clouded.
This was her first time going abroad and her first time going so far away.
Sylvan Cheney often went abroad when she was in the Cheney residence, especially to Lonton.
She was young and eager, always wanting to go overseas to have a look, so she often pleaded with him to take her along.
However, every time, his response was the same: I’m going abroad for business, it’s inconvenient to take you with me.
After being rejected so many times, she stopped asking.
So, the last time she asked… should have been when she was 16.
She was fully convinced by his words, since he was going for business, it would indeed be inconvenient to bring her along.
It wasn’t until later when she overheard the maids whispering that she understood — he was going to Lonton to see his girlfriend.
But at that time, she was only heartbroken for a while, she thought that the maids must have been making things up.
Yes, they must have been making things up.
So that’s how it was, she was deceiving herself all the way until she was 20.
Now thinking about it, she was so naive back then.
She could even imagine how foolish she looked, still waiting for him on the sofa every night..
