Chapter 2433: Chapter 2433: Come, Let Uncle Give You a Hug
Jasmine Yale was taken aback for a moment.
What?
What do you mean, wait three minutes?
Before she could ask, the call had already ended.
Unexpectedly, in less than three minutes, there was a knock at the door.
Jasmine Yale slipped on her slippers and went to open the door, pleasantly surprised to see Yukon Carbon.
She was too shocked and utterly surprised: "Yukon, why are you here?!"
Yukon Carbon looked much thinner than before, but his features were still handsome, his face retaining a warm and gentle refinement. He was wearing a light gray long coat, and his scarf wasn’t yet unwrapped.
"Didn’t you tell me to come today? I’m here, you should welcome me," Yukon Carbon said with a smile.
"Come in quickly, it’s cold outside." Jasmine Yale was overjoyed, and so was Butler Santana.
Yukon Carbon handed the things in his hand to Butler Santana and opened a delicate little box: "As an uncle, I can’t be stingy. This is a set of pearl brooches, one large and one small. The large one is for you, and the small one is for Little Clementine. Although she can’t wear it yet, she’ll surely use it in the future. Girls should dress beautifully."
Jasmine Yale brought Little Clementine out: "Little Clementine, say ’thank you’ to Uncle."
The little one was shy, turning her head away with an embarrassed look towards Yukon Carbon.
Jasmine Yale laughed: "Seeing a handsome uncle makes her shy."
But Little Clementine behaved quite well this time, not crying upon seeing a stranger, unlike before when she cried every time.
"Come, let Uncle give you a hug." Yukon Carbon opened his arms with gentle eyes.
Jasmine Yale handed the little one over to him.
The little one squirmed a bit at first, looking a bit reluctant, but perhaps because Yukon’s embrace was warm, she soon quieted down and became familiar with Yukon.
"Yukon, how has your health been?" Jasmine Yale looked at him, appearing to have recovered.
"After treatment for so long, I’ve mostly recovered. I was bedridden for over a month, but now I’m back at work."
"That’s good, visiting here, it’s not easy!"
"Your Little Clementine is really clever, born right on New Year’s, a new year."
"A little devil." Jasmine Yale doted on her daughter, "How many days are you staying in Cakago this time?"
"This time, I’m back to handle some property deed matters, and my mom’s bakery. She insists on selling it, so I’m checking if anyone is interested in buying."
Jasmine Yale’s heart trembled a bit.
There was a hint of melancholy.
In her heart, she was somewhat reluctant...
"Does she have to sell it?"
"My mom won’t return to Cakago."
"I’m sorry..."
"Why are you apologizing to me? My mom always intended to settle in Old York. She said she wanted to take care of my dad, who hasn’t been in the best health lately."
"Does Aunt Camden know you’re here?"
"She knows. The last time I showed her a photo of Little Clementine, she was quite happy, kept saying she resembles Jasmine, especially the eyes."
As Jasmine Yale listened to Yukon Carbon talk, her heart felt quite uneasy.
She knew Aunt Camden must have a grudge, uncertain when it might dissipate.
"Mr. Carbon, you should come here for meals these days," Butler Santana suggested.
"It’s too much trouble."
"Not at all," Jasmine Yale agreed, "Little Clementine really likes you!"
The little one was already clinging to Yukon Carbon, busily grabbing his scarf, her big eyes enjoying looking at him.
Jasmine Yale knew this was Little Clementine’s way of showing affection.
