Chapter 2298: Chapter 2298: The Bracelet Is Too Valuable; I Shouldn’t Accept It
"What are you waiting for?" Jasmine Yale tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear and gazed at him with bright eyes. "I already have a child, I’m okay with it. But you? You’re not getting any younger, can’t keep waiting forever."
"..." Sylvan Cheney’s smile froze for a moment. "You’re right, I have nothing at all."
Jasmine Yale paused in surprise. "Do you really have to pursue me? You’re amazing, no matter where you go in the future, you’ll have endless opportunities. And me, I’ve got nothing. If..."
"Yes, I do have to pursue you, any objections?" Sylvan Cheney interrupted her, dissatisfied.
"No objections."
"I haven’t had time to pack my suitcase yet, can you help me with that?" Sylvan Cheney asked. "I saw you bought some groceries, perfect timing, I can cook for you."
"I didn’t agree to be your girlfriend."
"I can be really good to you, trust me."
"Really?" Jasmine Yale looked at him, and for some reason, her eyes felt a bit moist, maybe it was the wind.
She rarely saw Sylvan Cheney like this, a bit at a loss, a bit nervous, and a bit unsure of himself.
Her heart instantly softened.
As he had said before, she was pathetic.
"Really." He didn’t say much more, just nodded solemnly, his gaze sharp and determined.
"Let’s talk about it later." Jasmine Yale replied lightly, "after my baby is born."
"Wouldn’t it be better for me to take care of you? Being pregnant is tough, you’ve been through it alone for so long, and now that it’s almost time, just let me take care of you."
Jasmine Yale pressed her lips together tightly, saying nothing.
Sylvan Cheney took off his trench coat and draped it over her shoulders. "It’s windy outside, don’t catch a cold."
The coat carried his body heat and faint scent.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, he added, "I just happen to have some proposal issues to discuss with you. Didn’t you say last time you had some ideas?"
Jasmine Yale laughed in exasperation. "Why do we need to go to your place to discuss work?"
As soon as Sylvan Cheney saw her smile, he picked her up and placed her in the passenger seat.
After closing the door, he went around to the driver’s seat and fastened her seatbelt for her.
He moved quickly, not giving Jasmine Yale time to resist.
"My place is clean, comfortable, it has everything, and it saves money," Sylvan Cheney said seriously.
"Cheapskate."
"This is a gift I got for you, open it and see." Sylvan Cheney, trying to win Jasmine Yale over, placed a delicate handbag in her hands.
A champagne-colored bag, with a bow ribbon tied on it.
Jasmine Yale gently shook it. "Is it expensive?"
"Not expensive."
"Oh." She reached out and untied the bow, only to find a jewelry box inside. Opening the royal blue jewelry box, a wide gold engraved bracelet quietly lay on the satin.
Jasmine Yale gently picked it up. "It’s beautiful."
"Try it on and see if it fits."
Jasmine Yale placed the bracelet on her left wrist, perfectly covering the faint scar.
The sunlight shone on the bracelet, shimmering golden and exceptionally delicate.
Jasmine Yale lowered her head, putting the bracelet on and taking it off, taking it off and putting it on again, clearly fond of it.
"If you like it, don’t take it off, you won’t need to do any housework anyway." Sylvan Cheney started the car, his voice soft and gentle.
"The bracelet’s too valuable, I shouldn’t accept it." After much thought, Jasmine Yale still took it off.
Sylvan Cheney frowned. "Once a gift is given, you can’t take it back. Keep it for yourself."
"If such an expensive item gets damaged by me someday, I’m afraid I won’t be able to pay for it."
