Fated love: the unwanted bride

Chale Cheney’s little hand clung tightly around Jasmine Yale’s neck, not letting down his guard in the slightest.

He watched Joe Heath as if the man was his enemy.

Hesitant precautions filled his teary big eyes.

All Joe could do was to cajole him, “If you agree, Uncle will get you a pet fox tomorrow.

Huh? A pet fox?

Chale’s hand loosened a little.

“Is it cute?” The little guy blinked his eyes and asked.

“Of course, much cuter than one in the zoo,” Joe lied as he tried to soothe the child.

“Oh, then you can only talk to Jasy for a while.” Chale let go of his hand.

“Fine, I won’t try to steal your Jasy away,” Joe promised earnestly.

Jasmine Yale:”…”

This little guy, just like that, sold her out?

Chale Cheney hopped down from Jasmine’s arms and obediently went over to stand by Butler Santana.

Joe walked over to Jasmine and smiled.

“Kids are so easy to fool,” Joe said.

Jasmine was quite unhappy, “You shouldn’t cheat the children. They don’t understand anything.”

“Why would I cheat the child? I’ll indeed get him a little fox tomorrow. Hmm, at such a young age he already likes foxes, wouldn’t he grow to fancy beautiful, cunning women?”

Jasmine rolled her eyes hard—

“Joe Heath!!! Do you honestly think every man is like you?”

“Pretty much.” Joe laughed with amusement.

Jasmine said calmly, “So, what did you want to talk about?”

“Call me at six tonight, I’ll come to pick you up and take you to a show.”

Joe’s eyes sparkled with a hint of sly charm.

In Jasmine’s eyes, his personality was totally different from Sylvan Cheney’s.

One was calm as a mountain; the other was casually lazy.

At least, that was how it appeared on the surface.

“What if the show is bad?” Jasmine turned to look at him.

“If it’s bad, you don’t have to pay.”

“Okay, I’ll watch.”

“I thought you would hesitate. I prefer the straightforward you.” Joe bent down, lightly blowing air into her ear while his voice teased.

“But I don’t like you.”

Jasmine was also very direct.

“Then who do you like? My older brother? Didn’t I tell you, huh, look at you. You can’t possibly like my older brother. For a guy like him, benefits come first! As for women… they don’t get a ranking in his heart.”

“Who said I like your older brother? Are there only two men in the world? Damn.”

Jasmine was very unhappy, her tone irritated.

“Hmm… I’m just reminding you. Speaking of, do you know why my older brother dotes on this little fellow?”

Joe pointed at Chale who was feeding biscuits to a monkey not far away.

Chale squatted on the ground, extended his tiny hand, and chuckled.

The little guy was adorable and exquisite.

“No matter how cold-hearted your older brother is, wouldn’t he love his own son?” Jasmine responded indifferently.

“No, no, no, my older brother never wanted a child. He doesn’t like kids,” Joe lowered his voice, “This little thing is an accident, firstly, he’s born to his woman, secondly… this little guy is one of his pawns to seize assets.”

“What?” Jasmine blinked in astonishment.

She didn’t understand.

“Look at you, you know nothing about my older brother.”

“Yes, I don’t know about him.”

Jasmine was telling the truth.

She had been living in the Cheney Residence for twelve years, besides going to school and having fun, she knew nothing else.

During those twelve years, she hadn’t even seen Sylvan’s father..
