Fated love: the unwanted bride

As much as she didn’t want to, Jasmine Yale had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Upon seeing Jasmine leave, Chale Cheney sat alone on the steps, silently watching Jasmine’s receding figure.

He felt so upset…

Reluctant to part.

Reluctant to part.

“Jasy…”

A layer of mist formed in his big eyes, causing them to turn red.

Yet, his Jasy had gone without looking back.

Not far from the entrance of the nursery, a dark blue BMW was parked.

Lana Fern, sitting in the driver’s seat, sporting dark sunglasses, didn’t pickup her cell phone until Jasmine had reached the subway station.

“Sis.”

“Lana, why are you calling me so early? Cough, cough.”

Yolanda hadn’t yet fallen asleep, but she had just taken her medicine and was getting ready for bed.

“Sister, do you have a cold? Are you feeling better?”

“It’s okay, just a slight cold, perhaps because of the chill. My condition is just the same as always, you know.”

“Sister, take some time off to come back home,” said Lana, sounding worried.

“What happened? What’s wrong?”

Yolanda could tell from Lana’s tone that something was off, unusually serious.

“I don’t know how Jasmine Yale has come to know Chale, she’s not intentionally getting close to him, is she?”

“Hm? Didn’t Chale just return home?”

“Yes, I find it strange too about how she got to know Chale, she just dropped him off at nursery.”

“How could she drop Chale off at nursery? Is she living at Cheney Residence?”

“Not exactly, Mr. Cheney has got someone to prepare Jasmine’s room for Chale.”

Yolanda fell silent.

Lana continued, “Sis, you should take a break and come home. Jasmine Yale is very cunning, and she might want to win Chale over to get close to Mr. Cheney. The kind of woman she is, a poor girl from a humble background, there’s nothing she wouldn’t dare to use, even children.”

“Isn’t that a bit of an overstatement?”

“Sis, have you forgotten? She went to bed with Mr. Cheney. She even abandoned her own reputation, what else wouldn’t she do? Now that Mr. Cheney is back, she definitely wants to return to his side.”

Lana’s voice was eager in urgency!

She wished Yolanda’s health could allow her to leave Lonton.

Seeing Yolanda remaining silent, Lana anxiously said, “Sis, make a decision, you have to come back and check on Chale. Even though Chale was adopted by Mr. Cheney, he sees you as his biological mother! I told him in our last meeting that his mother is Aunt Yolanda.”

“Lana, rest assured, Sylvan will not fall for Jasmine.”

“Sis, how can you be so confident? People’s hearts can be the most unpredictable.”

“Lana, it’s fine. Once I’m a little better, I’ll make time to go to Landon.”

“That’s right, sis, you’ve been worrying me.” Lana let out a sigh of relief, “Sis, I know Mr. Cheney spoils you the most and treats you well. But, there’s an old saying, ‘The geographic nearness enjoys the beauty of the moon first’, some women, they have so many tricks!”

“Lana, go to work, it’s alright.”

“Okay then, I’ll hang up.”

Lana hung up the phone, still feeling uneasy.

That was just like her sister – gentle, quiet, never impatient.

It had made her so anxious!

Right now, with Yolanda in Lonton and Mr. Cheney in Landon, what should she do?

Watching that sneaky Jasmine getting closer and closer to Chale Cheney!

How cheap! So cheap!

Whenever she thought about Jasmine throwing coffee and hot cocoa at her, she clenched her teeth in anger.

Why hadn’t this woman died three years ago along with her wild, illegitimate child!

At that thought, a wave of irritability welled up in Lana’s heart..
