Fated love: the unwanted bride

Chapter 937: Chapter 937: Mr. Cheney Cares About You Very Much Chapter 937: Chapter 937: Mr. Cheney Cares About You Very Much Ann Nolan shook her head, “I’m not considering his pride, it’s just that Grandpa is old, and his health hasn’t been good this year. He’s been recuperating at the holiday villa. If I bothered him with such trivial matters and upset him, I wouldn’t feel right about it.”

“Zaiden Santos is only picking on you because he knows you’d never go to Grandpa,” Jasmine said, indignant on Ann’s behalf.

That’s exactly what Zaiden was counting on, wasn’t it?

Otherwise, why would he treat Ann like this? It was bad enough that he kept a mistress, but he even forced Ann to resign from her job.

He did everything excessive to Ann without a second thought about her being all alone in Landon, having married into the city from afar.

“Jasmine, you don’t need to worry about me, I’ll handle my relationship with Zaiden Santos,” Ann reassured her as she placed another crab on her plate, “Eat up, this is really tasty.”

“Mhm!”

Jasmine Yale and Ann Nolan sat in the seafood restaurant, chatting and enjoying their seafood.

Jasmine knew that there wouldn’t be many more days like this to enjoy.

During the meal, Jasmine made a trip to the restroom.

In the dimly lit corridor, she faintly heard the soft sound of a woman’s crying.

Crying?

She held her breath and cautiously made her way to the restroom.

Not far from the restroom was a secluded staircase where a soft sobbing could be heard, “Miss Harry, could you please help me?”

Jasmine frowned—wasn’t that Lana Fern’s voice?

Talk about a small world.

After Yolanda’s incident, Lana was still in Landon?

“Miss Fern, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I haven’t known Mr. Cheney very long either. I probably don’t have much sway with him,” Joan Harry’s voice replied.

Jasmine was aware that the seafood restaurant was famous, but she didn’t expect it to be this well-known.

Even Joan Harry was here.

Lana… must be staking out the place.

“How can that be, Miss Harry? I’ve known Mr. Cheney for a long time, and I seldom see him treat any girl as well as he treats you. You are the only one. You’re Mr. Cheney’s girlfriend; surely, your words carry weight.”

“Miss Fern…” Joan seemed to be in a difficult position, “Since you’ve known Mr. Cheney for such a long time, then you should also know that once he’s made up his mind, nobody can change it.”

“Miss Harry, I’m not asking you to change Mr. Cheney’s decision, just to put in a good word for me, so I can see my brother. I miss him so much; I would be content just to see him from a distance. Miss Harry, it’s only human nature…”

“This…” Joan hesitated.

It really was only human nature—a sister wishing to see her brother, who had become a vegetable—what was so unreasonable about that?

“Miss Harry, I beg you, please plead for me, say a kind word on my behalf,” Lana beseeched.

“I’ll try,” Joan relented.

“Thank you, Miss Harry, thank you so much!” Lana couldn’t contain her gratitude, “Miss Harry, you truly are kind-hearted and compassionate.”

“You don’t need to thank me. I haven’t known Mr. Cheney for very long. I’m afraid to ask a favor of him in case he refuses,” Joan replied cautiously.

“No, he definitely won’t refuse. As long as you speak up, Mr. Cheney will surely agree to anything. I can tell that Mr. Cheney really cares about you,” Lana hurriedly assured her.

Jasmine knitted her brows.

Chris Fern still hadn’t woken up?

She suddenly remembered the words Yolanda had shared with her…

“Miss Fern, I should get going now,” Joan said.

“Sure, sure, thank you so much for your trouble, Miss Harry. Take care,” Lana’s voice brightened with hope, “Goodbye.”

Jasmine’s frown deepened; had she not been so familiar with Lana’s voice, she never would have believed that the person speaking so courteously could be Lana Fern.
