Chapter 364: Holding Yolanda Fern’s Arm
They were all desserts that Jasmine Yale loved to eat. It looked like it had been specifically arranged by Joe Heath.
Jasmine Yale changed her clothes and sat by the window to have her afternoon tea.
The sky here was very blue, clouds light and delicate.
Jasmine Yale’s heart had suddenly found peace.
After a while, Joe Heath called.
“Jasmine…” His voice was very gentle, but was tinged with infinite tiredness, “I miss you…”
“…” Jasmine Yale blinked, “Didn’t we just see each other this morning?”
“I’ve been confined to the house by my father, I probably won’t be able to come to Singapore for some time. Take good care of yourself, I’ll break away from my father as soon as I can.”
Jasmine Yale laughed, “Are you scared of your father?”
“Who’s scared of that old man!” Joe Heath sounded annoyed, “I’m just temporarily compromising!”
“Oh, then you must be reflecting on your mistakes behind closed doors. If I had a son like you, I’d probably go crazy too.”
“What’s wrong with me? What’s not to like about me?”
“No no no, you’re perfect.” Jasmine Yale laughed and took a bite of her pastry.
“Let me tell you something…”
“No!” Jasmine instinctively declined!
She didn’t know why, but Joe Heath never seemed to have anything good to say.
She did not want to hear any news from him.
But the thing about Joe Heath was that the more you told him not to say something, the more he wanted to say it.
“Today, I happened to pass by a kindergarten. It was holding a mini sports day. Your family’s… Oh, my older brother’s little kid, he was laughing so happily!”
Joe Heath seemed to be in high spirits as he spoke, crowing with triumph.
“Joe Heath!!!” Jasmine Yale roared in fury.
“Don’t interrupt me, I’m not done yet!” Joe Heath grinned, “The kid has completely forgotten about you. He was happily clinging onto Yolanda Fern’s arm. It’s going to break your heart, he seems to like Yolanda Fern way more than he likes you.”
“I’m already in Singapore, don’t tell me about what’s happening domestically anymore, I’m not interested.”
“Okay okay, whatever you say.”
“I start work tomorrow.”
“Take a couple more days off, it doesn’t matter if you work or not!”
“No.” Jasmine Yale was very firm.
Whenever she had downtime, she couldn’t help but let her mind wander. It was better to work.
“Alright alright, I’ll listen to you, after all, I like you!” Joe Heath squinted his eyes in a smile, “Tomorrow, someone will show you around the company, choose any position you like.”
“Why are you being formal with me.”
Jasmine Yale chatted with Joe Heath for a bit longer, but she was somewhat distracted.
She kept thinking about Chale Cheney.
She had changed cities and her heart was finally at peace.
But now, it felt like a stone had been thrown into the lake, causing ripples.
Actually, it had been many days since the little boy had seen her.
Just as she had imagined, children forget easily. Whoever was good to him today, he would like them tomorrow.
And for her, did she really give her heart to whoever was nice to her like Hans Colin had once said?
Kids, what do they know?
In the future…she would also forget about the little boy, right?
The bad boy was like a passerby who had rushed through her life…
She glanced down at the screensaver on her phone…
The photo had already been changed. The pictures she took at the amusement park had been saved onto her computer, and unless there were unexpected circumstances, she would probably never open them again.
For some reason, Joe Heath on the other end was in high spirits..
