Fated love: the unwanted bride

Chapter 928: Chapter 928: Not Giving In, Not Yielding Chapter 928: Chapter 928: Not Giving In, Not Yielding She thought that Harper wouldn’t go around gossiping about something like that.

She must still be waiting for Zaiden Santos to get divorced so she could marry him with dignity.

So, she had that much sense, she definitely wouldn’t talk carelessly.

Jasmine Yale had heard that Zaiden Santos recently wasn’t coming home much, Ann said he was very busy.

After all, Ann had told her that the financial project Zaiden was currently handling was extremely difficult, and no one dared to take it lightly.

Grandfather Santos had him take it on, surely because he thought he was too sharp and wanted to blunt his edge.

It wasn’t necessarily because he truly wanted him to succeed in the project.

And Zaiden’s personality, Ann knew it better than anyone.

Stubborn, unyielding.

Even if he knew there was a huge rock ahead, he would still find a way to move it.

Ann herself had been his stumbling block back in the day, which was why he had loathed her for so long.

Jasmine Yale didn’t think much of it and returned to the lounge after finishing up in the restroom.

“How come you were gone for so long? I thought you got lost, you little road-idiot.” Joe Heath squinted and laughed.

“Shall we go?” Jasmine picked up her bag, “While I’m still in my clothes, shall we go play basketball at Jingcheng University?”

“Sure, let’s go, I’ll risk my life to accompany a gentleman.”

Jasmine patted his shoulder and laughed, “That’s very considerate of you.”

She saw Joan Harry was still there, chatting and having tea with her friend, although she was dressed in sportswear, her innate elegance couldn’t be concealed.

Every move was charming and graceful.

She followed Joe downstairs to the parking lot.

As they descended, she caught sight of Zaiden Santos.

Zaiden Santos was playing golf with a few executives, looking entirely at ease, evidently over the frustration he had shown in the restroom.

Men all care about their pride, and Harper didn’t seem to know when to stop, even if Zaiden Santos didn’t rise, why did she have to repeatedly bring it up in front of Zaiden, hurting his self-esteem?

She didn’t see Harper, though.

“What are you looking at so intently?” Joe asked.

“Oh, a handsome guy, look, that handsome guy!” Jasmine pointed.

Joe looked ahead, but there were no handsome guys, only pot-bellied middle-aged men.

“With such a handsome man right in front of you, and you’re looking at others, you really aren’t giving me face.”

“Let’s go!” Jasmine laughed and pulled him along.

The weather today was neither cold nor hot, and the sunshine was splendid, truly suitable for outdoor activities.

The sky was a rare deep blue, with light, breezy clouds, and a crystal clear breeze washed over them.

…

With Ann Nolan and Joe Heath keeping her company, the days passed slowly, calm and comfortable.

It had been half a month since she returned from Willow Wave City.

Joe Heath still hadn’t found any clues about the whereabouts of Kaine Zahir’s family.

He said he would keep looking, but Jasmine Yale was filled with doubts.

How could they just disappear?

After all, Joe Heath was quite influential in Landon, finding three living people should be an easy task.

Yet, Joe had been searching for half a month without a single clue.

Jasmine Yale was even more convinced of the idea she had in her mind.

Friday night.

Jasmine Yale sat at the table, holding that one-inch black-and-white photo in the palm of her hand.

The man in the photo looked very young, but Jasmine Yale was certain she had never seen him before.

Her mother’s first love, or perhaps…

Jasmine Yale’s heart tightened.

Her mother’s notebook was beside her, she touched the photo, her palms sweating.

It was unclear how much time had passed when Jasmine Yale finally picked up her phone and found that long-uncontacted number.

His phone number hadn’t changed in many years, she knew it by heart.
