Let's Get Married

Chapter 784: Benefits of Leaving Him

Jasmine can tell from Bridget's words that Bridget has reached the end of her patience. Even though Jasmine still has many thoughts, she is very clear that it is not the right time to talk about them.

She cannot ask Bridget to completely accept Pehry at once. Take her time. The most important thing now is to have a talk with the ringleader.

Jasmine agrees with Bridget's words and calms her down. She hangs up while Bridget's tone softens a little.

Mary, who is standing in the distance, immediately walks towards Jasmine less than five seconds after Jasmine hangs up, "Jasmine, who called you? Is it from your family?"

Jasmine is so upset that she doesn't have time to deal with Mary. She nods perfunctorily and says, "My mother. There's something she needs me to do later. You can find someone else to accompany you first. I'm sorry."

"What?" hearing this, Mary does not leave. Instead, she continues to ask, "Isn't your family from another place? What does your mother want with you now?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Even if Jasmine does not mind what Mary has done before, what Mary says now is adding fuel to the fire.

Since when does Mary know so much about her family?

Mary even directly says that they are from another place. Does she know this very well? If Jasmine remembers correctly, Mary and she are not on good terms. Mary can only be considered a classmate that she knows.

Jasmine feels that she should remind Mary, "You don't have to worry about my family."

Mary can hear the displeasure in Jasmine's words. She does not say anything anymore and is embarrassed, "I don't mean anything else. Please don't misunderstand me...."

"I didn't misunderstand you." Jasmine says as she walks in another direction, "I'm leaving first."

Mary looks at her receding figure and angrily kicks the stone beside her. "Damn it! You are just a wealthy man's mistress. How dare you be so arrogant?"

...

After leaving the school, Jasmine doesn't even have time to take a bus. She directly stops a taxi and gives the driver an unfamiliar address. She originally doesn't know where Mr. Alfred lives. But the man, who came to the villa to meet her last time, had deliberately given her an address.

Jasmine has thought that she will never use the address. But it turns out that it is prepared for today.

Go straight to her house?

Jasmine becomes serious that she has never been before. These people are too arrogant.

"Sir, please drive faster. I'm in a hurry." Jasmine keeps urging the driver in front of her. She wishes that she can have a pair of wings so that she will immediately fly to the gate of Mr. Alfred's mansion.

It takes Jasmine nearly forty minutes to get there. She pays the fare and gets off the car. Then, she walks along the path for another ten minutes before arriving at the main entrance of the mansion.

Unlike Pehry's villa which is built in continental style, this mansion is built in Chinese style. The bamboo forest planted in front of the courtyard, the red and white roses on both sides of the road, and the carved gate all reveal an antique flavor.

It is hard to imagine that in such a building, which looks like a work of art, there is a powerful old man.

Jasmine looks at it. She is not intimidated, but laughs mockingly. It is a waste for such a sinister person to live in such a house!

She walks in valiantly and arrives at the front door of the first floor of the house. She is about to raise her hand and knock on the door. But before she does it, the door is suddenly opened.

Jasmine pauses and sees a butler with white hair appear in front of her. "You are Miss Jasmine, aren't you?"

She nods, "It's me."

"Mr. Alfred is waiting for you in the study on the second floor. Please follow me." The butler personally leads her to the study on the second floor and pushes the door open. Mr. Alfred is standing behind his desk, writing on the paper.

After Jasmine enters, the butler closes the door. There are only two people in the large room. It is very quiet, as if everything is still.

Jasmine swallows. Is she nervous? Of course she is. Facing such a powerful person, everyone will be nervous. But she will not retreat.

"You know I will come, don't you?" Jasmine steps forward and asks bluntly.

Mr. Alfred does not look up and continues to bend over to write, as if he does not hear her.

Jasmine can't help but raise her voice and cuts to the chase, "You have sent someone to my house, right?"

She is almost certain that it is Mr. Alfred who did this. Other than him, no one else dares to offend her. After all, Pehry is not a man to be trifled with.

However, whatever Jasmine says, Mr. Alfred not far away seems not to hear her. He just keeps writing and does not have any intentions to respond.

Jasmine can't help but be a little angry. Although Mr. Alfred is an elder, it is still hard to accept that he deliberately ignores others.

Jasmine is silent for a minute and finally summons up her courage to step forward. She stops two steps from the desk, "Mr. Alfred, I know you have a problem with me. Now, I'm standing here. You can say whatever you want to in person."

The girl's firm voice sounds from above his head. Mr. Alfred can feel that she is still young and brave and haven't been tempered.

Mr. Alfred finally puts down the brush in his hand. He straightens up and looks at the petite figure. The girl is young but courageous. The last man who dares to speak to him like this has already been thrown somewhere.

Mr. Alfred suddenly laughs, "You really dare to come here."

"I haven't intended to come. However, my family is disturbed. I have no choice but to ask you for an explanation."

"Explanation? What kind of explanation do you want?"

"I want an explanation of what right you have to disturb my family without permission." Jasmine says word for word.

Mr. Alfred's expression instantly changes. His eyes become frightening. "I've told you the reason. Since you can't break up with Pehry, I will find another way."

"Even if you come to my house, I won't break up with Pehry." Jasmine makes her position clear to him without hesitation. Her tone is especially firm. "From the moment I was with him, I never intended to break up with him. Come and get me if you are dissatisfied. I do not care. But my family is innocent. I don't think you need to use my parents to deal with a young girl like me, right?"

Jasmine says, in a very roundabout way, that Mr. Alfred is at such an age, not only bullying people, but also looking for helpers. Mr. Alfred naturally knows what she means.

However, he is not anxious or angry at all. No matter what her attitude or tone, Mr. Alfred is very calm, as if everything Jasmine does is insignificant. "Leave Pehry, and I can give you the benefits you want. If you insist on doing so, then all of this is just the beginning."
