Let's Get Married

Chapter 786: Jasmine Is Diligent

Jasmine returns to this place without telling him and helps him clean his house secretly. What a diligent girl!

Pehry turns around and sweeps his gaze across every corner of the room. With the bright lights above his head, he discovers that every single part of the first floor is spotless.

Pehry looks at the sofa and Jasmine rises before him. She rests on the sofa with simple clothes, panting slightly. Her hair is a little messy, but she doesn't mind it. After resting for a while, she continues to do cleaning for him.

In an instant, Pehry feels the empty room in front of Pehry becomes lively. On such a lonely night, Pehry draws comfort from it.

He suddenly longs to see Jasmine, the one who can give him infinite warmth.

Pehry ignores his dizziness and staggers to the coffee table. He picks up the phone and presses the shortcut key, directly dialing the number that he has memorized.

In less than two seconds, the phone is picked up and Jasmine's soft voice comes through the microphone. "Hello? You're at home?"

Recently, Pehry seldom calls Jasmine, especially in the middle of the night. Jasmine guesses that he has seen the note she left behind after returning home.

Jasmine's roommates have fallen asleep. Jasmine quietly gets out of bed and walks out. She does not dare to speak too loudly because she is afraid that she will wake others up.

"Yes. You have come to my place today." Pehry does not ask her, speaking in a declarative tone.

"That's right. I went to the villa in the afternoon. The house was a little messy, so I cleaned it up. I squeezed some juice for you. Did you see?" Jasmine stands in front of the window at the end of the dormitory corridor. Looking at the dark sky outside, she is thinking about Pehry.

"Yes." As Pehry speaks, he flicks a glance at the fridge, as if he can see her.

No, it can't calm Pehry down. He is eager to see her and hug her.

On the other end of the phone, Jasmine is still muttering, "After I went home this afternoon, I found that there was nothing fresh in the refrigerator. Moreover, the living room was in a mess, covered with dust. Pehry, don't do it again. I know you're busy, but you have to call the property over to clean it up...."

Pehry does not feel that she is nagging. Instead, he is touched. Jasmine cares about him all the time. He has never had such a feeling before.

Pehry's family only asks Pehry if he has any questions about his work today, and some insignificant things.

Pehry interrupts Jasmine, "Where are you now?"

Jasmine is shocked, but she still honestly replies, "I'm in the dormitory."

"I'll meet you at the school."

"Yes, don't change the subject. I just.... What? You said you would meet me at the school?" Jasmine doesn't figure out what he means until she is halfway in her words. She is confused. "It's too late. Don't come, or I won't be able to get in later."

"Then don't go back." As Pehry speaks, he is putting on his clothes. "I'll ask the driver to drive over. It will take at most half an hour. Get dressed and wait for me."

Jasmine glances at her watch. Bridget is definitely asleep now, so there is no risk of being discovered. However....

"It's really too late. I don't have class tomorrow afternoon. We can...."

"I want to see you now." Pehry lets out a deep breath and asks her, "Is that okay?"

Jasmine bites her lips and struggles for a moment. Finally, she nods and agrees, for she doesn't have the heart to refuse Pehry. "Alright, I'll get dressed right now. Call me when you arrive."

Unexpectedly, Pehry says, "Don't hang up."

"What?" Jasmine blinks her eyes in panic, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerates. "Is it convenient for you?"

"It's fine."

Since Pehry gets on the car, they have been talking on the phone. Most of the time, Jasmine is talking, while Pehry just listens quietly.

Jasmine suddenly feels that they have changed the way to get along. He used to pester her and make conversations.

At that time, Jasmine only felt that Pehry was cheeky. But now she realizes that it is very difficult to find a topic, especially when the other party does not want to talk.

Half an hour later, the car stops under the dormitory building.

"I'm here." Pehry's deep voice comes through the microphone. Jasmine has been sitting at the staircase on the first floor. Upon hearing this, she immediately rises up and walks outside.

The entrance to the dormitory has been closed. As long as one swipes his card and leaves, he won't be able to enter tonight.

Jasmine grits her teeth and walks out.

Under the dark sky, the headlights of the black Maybach, which stops not far from the road, are on. Jasmine trots towards the bright light. After opening the back door and getting on the car, she breathes a sigh of relief.

Before she says anything, she suddenly falls into a warm embrace.

Jasmine is stunned, and then she smells alcohol on Pehry's breath. "Did you drink?"

"Yes, I attended a dinner party tonight."

Pehry breathes beside Jasmine's ear, while Jasmine can feel he is somewhat depressed. She hugs him. "You must be very tired," she says.

"I'm fine."

Pehry seems to be flippant. But he is quite responsible for the one he loves. No matter how tired or annoyed he is, he is reluctant to show negative emotions to Jasmine.

He doesn't want Jasmine to share his pain. He can get it through alone.

"Why do you come?"

"When I know that you went back home, I can't help but want to see you." Pehry tightens his grip, as if he wants to embed her into his arms.

Pehry has an impulse to see her right now. Even if Jasmine is not at school but in broad, Pehry will probably go there by private plane.

He cannot resist the impulse.

Hearing this, Jasmine has mixed feelings. In short, she is very happy that he misses her, but his current situation wrings her heart.

Even though Pehry refuses to say anything, she knows that something must have happened to his family recently. Therefore, he keeps himself so busy that he doesn't even have time to see her.

The night is quiet. The driver is standing under a tree in the distant. Jasmine does not know how to comfort Pehry. Thus, in silence, she rests in his embrace and strokes his back, hoping she can give him some warmth and strength.

Pehry is not a pretentious person. After hugging her quietly for a while, he soon comes to himself, and then he lets go of her. Looking at Jasmine's soft and beautiful face, Pehry feels that he is no longer empty. "Tell me when you come, and don't leave secretly again."

Jasmine doesn't understand what he implies. "I just happened to be free, so I helped you clean up."

"I know." Pehry helps adjust Jasmine's fluffy hair behind her ear. His bright eyes sparkle with affection. "But I will feel heartache."Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
