“Jasmine, can’t you see how my elder brother feels about you?”
“What?” Jasmine Yale looked at him.
Her eyes were aflame.
Did they have to talk about Sylvan Cheney?
“I’ll just tell you this: that man grew up amidst schemes and tricks,
dark-minded, and trusting no one. Regarding you, he won’t genuinely like you, do you understand?”
“Of course, I do. You don’t need to teach me.” Jasmine glared at him.
Someone like Sylvan Cheney would never fully trust anyone.
That is their code for survival.
“The way he looks at you, it’s like… don’t be mad, but it’s as if he’s looking at a lover.” Joe Heath said with a quiet chuckle, “You’ve known him for fifteen years. Have you ever slept with him?”
With a clatter, Jasmine threw down the fork in her hand.
She glared furiously at Joe!
“Joe Heath, show some respect!”
They’d only met a few times, and already he was talking like this?
“Don’t misunderstand me,” Joe clarified, “So, you’ve never slept with him. What I mean is, all men are the same, the more they can’t get something, the more they want it, get it?”
“Is CEO Heath the same?”
“Of course.” Joe grinned, “See, you’ve always been rejecting me, but I’m still persisting, always hoping that I can win your heart.”
“Aren’t you disgusting yourself by saying such things?” Jasmine rolled her eyes.
He must have said this to countless women.
Sylvan had told her that Joe was no saint, with plenty of women around.
Clearly, in the entertainment industry, there was no room for anyone to remain uninvolved.
“That’s why my elder brother’s intentions towards you are clear as day. He wants to sleep with you.” Joe said, enjoying the chaos he’d caused, “Think about it, you’re so beautiful. You’ve known him for fifteen years and he hasn’t slept with you. What a loss for him!”
“Moreover, my elder brother is no saint. To have taken care of you for fifteen years for nothing? That’s too much of a loss. My big brother never engages in such unprofitable dealings.”
Jasmine had always understood this, conscious of the fact, but hearing Joe say it aloud, she couldn’t help but feel disheartened.
Sylvan now kept seeking her out, his intentions clear every time.
If he wasn’t undressing her, he was kissing her.
His intentions couldn’t be clearer.
For Jasmine, all that was left from Sylvan was a man’s basic instinctive reaction.
A pang of distress filled Jasmine’s heart.
Seeing that she didn’t respond, Joe continued: “The person my elder brother has in his heart isn’t you.”
“Have you said enough?!” Jasmine asked, glaring at him in annoyance.
The man before her eyes seemed harmless with his smile, yet incredibly… petty.
He continually stabbed at her heart. Was that amusing to him?
She knew that Sylvan Cheney looked at her as a plaything, did he need to remind her over and over again?
“Of course not, I haven’t finished yet. I know my big brother very well. It seems he’s deceived you quite a bit. For instance, these past few years in Lonton, he often went out to drink alone until he was drunk. Do you know why?”
Joe Heath smirked at Jasmine.
There isn’t a corner in this world that can’t be pried open.
He, Joe Heath, would not accept defeat.
“Can we not talk about him?” Jasmine was getting angry.
She was so angry that she lost her appetite for the steak.
“I must tell you the truth. “He drinks until he’s drunk because he misses someone intensely. There’s a woman in his heart, he loves that woman very much. I guess, the woman isn’t someone else, but the mother of Chale Cheney.” Joe persisted relentlessly.
Having said this, Jasmine’s face changed.
It was as dark as if the sky were clouded over by thick clouds..
