Fated love: the unwanted bride

Chapter 626: Chapter 626 Seven Seven, don’t lie to me

That night, Sylvan Cheney and Jasmine Yale were inseparable.

When they went for a walk, Sylvan Cheney brought only Jasmine Yale along.

Chale Cheney cried in jealousy, but there was nothing he could do, Elder Cheney didn’t fall for it!

Chale Cheney looked pitiful.

Once Elder Cheney returned, he became irrelevant and Jasy was taken from him.

He could only stare blankly at Riceball.

“Mr. Cheney, don’t you plan on returning to the Cheney Residence?” Jasmine Yale asked.

The Cheney Residence was the ancestral home of the Cheney Family, a symbol of power, status, and prestige.

The place was scenic, boasting clear mountains and pristine waters.

What was most important, Sylvan Cheney had lived there for thirty years and his feelings for the place were naturally deep-rooted.

“That’s a matter for later.”

“Oh.”

Seeing that Jasmine Yale didn’t want to chat with him, she obediently kept quiet.

She pushed his wheelchair, strolling with him in the heated glass corridor.

The outside street lights were clear and bright, casting shallow, yellow halos on the ground below, creating a collage of mixed scenery.

The night was very peaceful, so much so that even a slight noise from a bird could create a big sound.

After a while, Sylvan Cheney frowned: “Why so quiet now?”

“What shall we talk about?” Jasmine Yale was confused, “I have a job at Respected Majesty tomorrow, I quit interviewing and will only be editing in the office.”

“You do not like the job?”

“I like it, but I still want to improve myself, that’s why I plan to go to graduate school.”

Or, study abroad.

But she swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Sylvan Cheney had just returned, and she planned to take care of him for a while before making decisions.

“Which university are you planning on taking the exam at?”

I haven’t decided yet,” Jasmine Yale evaded with her eyes.

Truth be told, she had already set her aim on C University in C City.

But C City was far away from Landon, very far. It would be no different than studying abroad if she actually got in.

“Really? Or you just don’t want to tell me?” Sylvan Cheney was indifferent, “Jasy, do you know that when you lie, you get nervous? Huh?”

Jasmine Yale instantly felt as though he could see through her, it felt terrible.

She couldn’t hide any secrets from him.

He had her figured out completely.

“Jasy, don’t lie to me, I told you, I won’t force you.”

“I didn’t mean it that way, I want to get into C University,” she finally admitted.

Hearing the words “C University”, Sylvan Cheney’s pupils contracted and his eyes cooled, as if something was freezing over within them.

“And then what?” he asked casually.

“And then?” Jasmine Yale was confused for a moment, her fingers gently rubbing the wheelchair, “I don’t know whether I will get in. If I do, I will study for three years, doing part-time work on the side, therefore supporting myself won’t be a problem.”

Although it wouldn’t be a luxurious life, at least it would be a life of her own choosing.

“After graduation, will you stay in C City? Huh?”

“I… I haven’t thought that far.”

“Jasy, you have planned really well,” he said, his voice ice cold.

“Can we stop talking about this? I haven’t even decided, and as you can see, my grades aren’t so great, it’s still debatable whether I can get in.”

Sylvan Cheney scoffed.

He shook off her hand and left.

Jasmine Yale stood on the spot, looking confused and helpless.

Did she say something wrong again?

He was the one who said he wouldn’t force her.

So, why was he angry now?Nôv(el)B\\jnn

She found his thoughts increasingly inscrutable.

She didn’t even want to say it initially, he was the one insisting on asking, and now it has become her fault.
