Married at First Sight Chapter 884

Chapter 884

Mrs. Sox would disapprove if Shawn continued to obsess over Serenity.

What was the point of pursuing a married woman?

“Oh, that reminds me. Your aunt has found another nice man for you. You can meet him at dinner tonight. She mentioned that he doesn’t come from a wealthy family, having given up on that criterion since you dislike it so much.”

To be honest, Mrs. Lowe realized her niece had dismissed the idea of marrying a rich husband the moment Jasmine lay down on the floor at Mrs. Dawson’s birthday party. That was when Mrs. Lowe decided to stop playing matchmaker.

After taking a break from meddling in her niece’s life, Mrs. Lowe was back at it, searching for a suitable man for Jasmine.

At twenty-six, Jasmine was single and had no boyfriend in sight. Aunt Rachel felt anxious for her niece, who was not getting any younger.

This anxiety was also affecting Mrs. Sox. Whenever the two ladies got together, they constantly thought about setting Jasmine up on dates.

“Your aunt said you’re meeting an executive from their company. He has been with the company for many years, so your uncle is well-acquainted with him. He recently ended a relationship with a girlfriend of eight years.”

“Your uncle wants to set you two up.”

Jasmine replied, somewhat puzzled, “He broke up with his girlfriend after eight years. What was the reason for the breakup?”

“Apparently, the girl wanted to end things. I think she’s marrying someone else now. Anyway, they are no longer together.”

Jasmine believed the woman must have felt that the relationship was going nowhere after eight years, which likely pushed her to marry someone else.

“Mom, I don’t want to go on a blind date.”

Jasmine was adamant about not wanting to meet her date.

It seemed heartless for the man to leave a woman hanging for…

Eight years passed before she sadly married someone else. Jasmine already held a low opinion of the man before they even met.

“He was too busy with work to spend time with his girlfriend, which is why she asked to break up,” Mrs. Sox added. “Your uncle won’t pair you with an awful match. He will only introduce you to eligible men.”

“How are you supposed to get married if you don’t meet anyone? You’re twenty-six, for heaven’s sake. Look at Serenity. You need to try harder, or you’ll still be single by the time Serenity becomes a mother.”

“I can become a mom when Serenity does. I plan to be the godmother to her kids.”

Furious, Mrs. Sox scolded Jasmine, “Being a godmother doesn’t mean anything. I dare you to be a mother yourself.”

“Mom, I’m too much of a wimp to accept your challenge, so I suppose I’ll settle for being a godmother. Drake said he’ll take care of me if I can’t find a husband.”

“Get lost!”

Jasmine chuckled. “You don’t need to worry about me, Mom. I can find a better man than the ones you’re trying to set me up with when I’m ready to settle down.”

“Go ahead and brag. Why don’t you prove us wrong and bring a man home? In fact, take him to your aunt’s dinner tonight if you want us to back off.”

Rising to his feet, Josh leaned forward and asked Mrs. Sox over the phone, “Mrs. Sox, do I need to bring anything to the dinner? What do Mr. and Mrs. Lowe like? I should bring a gift.”

Jasmine wanted to cover Josh’s mouth, but it was too late.

Mrs. Sox heard everything on the other end.

“You sound familiar, boy. Jasmine, give the phone to him. I want to talk to him.”

Jasmine shot Josh an annoyed look before reluctantly handing the phone to him.

Josh took

He picked up the phone and smiled as he introduced himself to Mrs. Sox. “Mrs. Sox, I’m Josh. We’ve met before.”

“Oh, Josh! That’s why your voice sounds so familiar. Are you pretending to be Jasmine’s date?”

Mrs. Sox was aware that Josh got along well with her son. Josh had made a lasting impression on her, as her son constantly spoke of how wonderful he was.
