Let's Get Married

Chapter 744: Someone Else Is Here

Not long after, Pehry and Jasmine arrive at the hospital by car. Along the way, Pehry and Jasmine keep chatting and laughing in the car. They have never stopped for a moment. Pehry only reads the document for a while at the beginning, and he soon puts it aside.

With Jasmine by his side, Pehry finds it hard to concentrate on working. As long as he hears her voice and sees her profile, he is unable to continue to work.

After the car stops in front of the hospital, Jasmine carries her bag and is about to get off.

Pehry is reluctant to let her go. Even though he will see her a few hours later at night, he couldn't bear to be apart with her now. What a clingy man!

"You're leaving now?"

Jasmine glances at the hospital gate behind her and says, "That's right. I'm here."

Pehry keeps holding Jasmine's hand and continues, "I know. But aren't you going to say something to me before you go?"

Jasmine looks at Pehry, who doesn't want to release her, feeling confused. She asks, "What do you mean?"

Pehry finds it unbelievable and stops talking as well.

What does he mean?

How could she ask such a question? Except for wanting her to say something nice or give him a kiss, what else could he do?

Unfortunately, Jasmine fails to understand him. And she looks extremely confused.

Pehry has no choice but to take the initiative and pull her over, whispering in her ear, "Kiss me."

"..."

Jasmine's face flushes immediately. She hurriedly casts a glance at the driver. Although the driver has lowered his head consciously, Jasmine is embarrassed and shy.

"What are you doing? There's someone else here!" Jasmine tries her best to shake off Pehry's hand, as she speaks.

Since Pehry is surprised at her sudden action, Jasmine succeeds. He leans back because of his inertia. When he comes back to his senses, he feels sad and begins to complain.

"Did you push me away just now?"

Jasmine ignores him. She quickly opens the car door and gets out of the car. She says, "You deserve it."

Before Pehry speaks, Jasmine turns around and walks towards the hospital gate.

By contrast, the driver, who has been present, is frightened into cold sweat. He wonders if Mr. Pehry will vent his anger on him as Miss Jasmine has left. He doesn't want to be fined....

However, he thinks too much. Pehry doesn't look away until Jasmine enters the door. He puts on a faint smile and says, "How ruthless!"

The driver looks up at Pehry and carefully asks, "Mr. Pehry, are you going back to the company now?"

Pehry waves his hand casually and answers yes. From his gentle voice, one is easy to tell how he dotes on Jasmine. He says, "Since Jasmine has gone, it's time to get down to business."

...

Jasmine strides to the ward. Given her uncle has been taking care of her father here all the night, he must have been tired. She wanted to arrive before nine o'clock. So, she is able to change shift with him earlier. However, due to Pehry, she is late. It is nine thirty when she arrives.

She hurriedly enters the ward, "Uncle, I'm sorry to be late. You must have been tired after taking care of the patient the whole night, you should go home and take a rest."

"Don't worry. Your mother came to help me in the morning. Have you eaten yet?"

"Yes. Uncle, you can go to the cafeteria to have some food and go home to take a rest," Jasmine puts the things down and walks to the bedside.

Lying on the bed, Cyrus is asleep with heavy breathing.

"My father hasn't woken up yet?"

As he packs up, he says, "He woke up once in the morning. After having a check-up and eating something, he falls asleep again. Don't awaken him. He can feel better when sleeping. I'm gonna go. You stay here and take care of him. If you need help, contact me at any time. Your aunt and I can come over."

"Alright. Take care!"

Then, her uncle leaves. Just as Jasmine moves a chair by the bed and sits down, she sees Bridget, who is busy with the formalities, is back.

She looks at her and calls her, "Mom."

Bridget puts all papers in the bag and says, "You're here. Your father was uncomfortable last night. He hardly slept. Fortunately, he is put in a single ward. Otherwise, it will be worse if it is noisy."

Jasmine feels distressed at her mother's words. Cyrus is so old that he couldn't bear any pain anymore.

According to Jasmine's expression, Bridget knows that Jasmine fails to get what she implied. Bridget walks to her and whispers in her ear, "Jasmine, it's not easy to live in the public hospital of J City, let alone to be in a single ward. Is it the friend of yours who came yesterday helps us?"

Jasmine’s family has no relatives or friends in J City. After Cyrus’ accident, the only person who came to visit him is Pehry.

Jasmine is a little panicked when hearing Bridget's sudden question. She decides to hide the truth from her mom and says, "Yes. Mom, he happens to have a friend working here."

"He doesn't look like a student. Instead, he seems to have high social status. What's his job?" Bridget asks further as she is worried about Jasmine.

However, it is indeed what worries Jasmine. She thought that her family would ask about Pehry, but she doesn't expect it to be so sudden. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

She can't help but begin to stammer, "He is just a normal businessman. I used to work for him, so we know each other. Perhaps he found I was in need, so he helped me. He is kind-hearted."

As she speaks, Jasmine involuntarily feels guilty and can't help but lower her voice. After all, she knows clearly that Pehry is not a warm-hearted person at all.

He is in fact utterly hardhearted.

Bridget finds it even stranger, "Is he your boss?"

Jasmine feels astonished and replies, "Not now."

"I have never seen a boss who is so generous to his employees. It's several hundred thousand yuan rather than a few thousand. Jasmine, are you ... "Bridget is struck halfway of her words, as she doesn't want to doubt her daughter and say those comments easily.

Jasmine quickly denies, "Mother, he is just my boss. Don't think too much. I will return him the money. I also will write him an IOU."

Since Jasmine plans to repay the money, Bridget finally feels relaxed. She asks, "Then, what did he say? What is the time limit?"

"Our boss is rich. He won't hurry me to repay him. And he said I can do it at my pace."

Looking at Jasmine's smooth face, Bridget thinks of how clever she has been since her childhood. As her parents, Jasmine and Cyrus don't have to worry about her life and study at all. Besides, Jasmine has never asked them for money ever since she went to university.

As Jasmine is always obedient and loveable, Bridget seldom worries about her. She believes that Jasmine will never do anything unacceptable, from the past to the present.

Although Bridget is still suspicious, she decides to trust her daughter. She knows well about Jasmine.

"No matter what your boss said, we have to return him the money as soon as possible. After your father recovers, I will go back and try to pool money. Let's see if we can return some of the money first."
