Chapter 2289: Chapter 2289: He Cares About You
"This probably... is like when you were in school, lots of things you felt embarrassed to do yourself, like sending a love letter, you’d ask classmates for help. I think it’s the same principle," said Kade.
Jasmine Yale laughed, "You’re not someone who’s never been in a relationship, you have quite a bit of experience."
"Because I was the one who often helped people deliver love letters."
When he said that, Jasmine Yale laughed even harder.
"Since he’s being genuinely nice, you should just accept it. If you ask me, it doesn’t hurt to take it," Kade added, "I went shopping with him, he went to all the boutique stores, it wasn’t cheap."
"Children’s clothes don’t need to be too good, kids grow up so fast."
"I said the same thing, but someone said money’s not an issue. You know, those words really sting," Kade covered his face, feeling pained.
Jasmine Yale didn’t say much more.
Soon, the waiter came in with the dishes.
Kade ordered quite a few dishes; they looked appetizing and smelled fantastic, filling the entire private room with fragrance.
Kade wasn’t the silent type; he and Jasmine Yale got along pretty well.
Sitting opposite Jasmine Yale, Kade also shared quite a lot of fun stories from his school days, and of course, the current situation at the company.
"Jasmine, since you resigned, some people’s state isn’t very good, they get distracted in meetings," Kade asked calmly, "They even occasionally mess up numbers and English; it doesn’t fit his usual style. He’s always been meticulous."
"Isn’t it because work is too tiring? The entire company’s top levels are relying on him. Those directors and deputy CEOs Erin Janus hired before, how many are competent? He wants to promote his own people, but I’m afraid he’ll need Erin Janus’s agreement."
"You’re very perceptive, but there are also personal reasons; he’s not sleeping well."
Jasmine Yale stayed silent.
"Lately, I’ve been ordering food for him and bringing meals, and he doesn’t eat much. Sometimes when I come around, the meal is untouched, the bag isn’t even opened," Kade lamented, "He went to Old York for a business trip this afternoon; it might be a few days before he returns."
"Do you sympathize with him? I don’t," Jasmine Yale said lightly.
She’s reminded him countless times, but he acted like he didn’t hear.
What else can she do?
"Jasmine, don’t say that; when one’s mood is bad, the appetite isn’t good. If you have time, you should persuade him; his mood will improve greatly."
Jasmine Yale chuckled, "In what capacity?"
Kade paused for a second and then replied, "He cares about you, he just hasn’t said it publicly."
"But he’s public with Erin Janus," Jasmine Yale replied lightly, "I’m not jealous; I just purely dislike this tangled feeling, and I don’t like others seeing me as a third wheel."
"Jasmine, don’t worry too much about what others think. What is yours will be yours; at least our friends won’t misunderstand you."
"No one is indifferent."
Jasmine Yale lowered her head, picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork, and ate quietly.
Her heart didn’t have great fluctuations, seeming even calm.
In this city, she doesn’t even have a single friend left anymore; maybe there won’t be anyone considering her perspective ever again.
Kade also paused in silence, his eyes showing an indescribable glimmer.
"Jasmine, I spend every day with him; many things I see more clearly than you. He truly likes you," Kade said, "As for CEO Janus... his gaze towards CEO Janus lacks any love."
