She would be overjoyed if Josh asked her daughter out instead, often laughing in her sleep at the thought.<\/div>\n<div>Josh responded earnestly, \u201cMrs. Sox, I\u2019m not pretending to be Jasmine\u2019s date. To clarify, I\u2019m pursuing Jasmine, and she hasn\u2019t agreed to be my girlfriend yet.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Sox held the phone away from her ear, double-checking that she had dialed the right number. After a moment, she placed the phone back against her ear and asked, \u201cAre you really Mr. Bucham?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cIt\u2019s me, Mrs. Sox.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cDid you say you\u2019re pursuing Jasmine and not Drake?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Josh replied, \u201cMrs. Sox\u2026 I\u2019m straight. I\u2019m only interested in women.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>In his mind, he lamented, \u2018Both my future mother-in-law and Jasmine seem to suspect I have feelings for Drake.\u2019<\/div>\n<div>Interestingly, Mrs. Sox didn\u2019t discourage him from asking Drake out despite her doubts.<\/div>\n<div>The old woman was quite open-minded.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cBut you\u2019re so kind to Drake that I thought you might be in love with my son. I often discuss with his father what we should do if our son has a husband and whether he would be able to accept it. You should see the look on his face.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Josh was momentarily speechless.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMrs. Sox.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Raising a hand to his face, Josh explained, \u201cI like your daughter, Jasmine. I was only nice to Drake because he\u2019s Jasmine\u2019s brother. I was trying to impress my future brother-in-law and earn his favor.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cHasn\u2019t Jasmine joined us every time I asked Drake out?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Sox burst out laughing. \u201cI understand now! I\u2019m relieved that you\u2019re not interested in Drake that way. At least I don\u2019t have to worry about accepting a man as my son\u2019s partner. Come here, honey. I have some good news for you.\u201d<\/div>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to worry about your son bringing home a man. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Bucham isn\u2019t infatuated with Drake; he\u2019s actually smitten with our daughter. I suppose you could say he has an ulterior motive. Hahaha. I can\u2019t believe someone is interested in our Jasmine!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Josh was speechless. <\/p>\n<p>So was Jasmine. <\/p>\n<p>Was she really that undesirable? <\/p>\n<p>Many guys had crushes on her, but she wasn\u2019t looking for a relationship. She preferred to enjoy her single, free life rather than risk getting hurt. <\/p>\n<p>Love had caused pain for Seren. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMrs. Sox, I\u2019m serious about Jasmine. Although I haven\u2019t won her heart yet, I\u2019m trying. I hope you\u2019ll give me a chance and not pit me against other love rivals.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Sox was overjoyed, mainly because someone wanted her daughter. Noticing that Jasmine didn\u2019t shy away from Josh, she realized her daughter was attracted to him. <\/p>\n<p>With a smile, she replied, \u201cI\u2019ll give you every chance you need. I really like you. I told my husband how wonderful it would be if you fell for Jasmine instead. I can\u2019t believe my dreams have come true. I\u2019ll let her aunt know to disinvite the date. Please come with Jasmine to her aunt\u2019s later.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you, Mrs. Sox.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Josh knew just the right words to say, making Mrs. Sox delighted. <\/p>\n<p>Jasmine watched as Josh engaged in a lively conversation with her mom. Keeping her family\u2019s knowledge of Josh\u2019s interest a secret was the right choice. Just look at her mom!<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 885 Nevertheless, Josh was an exceptionally intelligent man.
