What should I prepare? What\u2019s my status?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Jasmine glanced at him while continuing to eat and replied, \u201cEven if you\u2019re a scumbag, my aunt and the others will still think you\u2019re the best.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>He was Josh Bucham, the Mr. Bucham from York Corporation and a member of the enigmatic Bucham family. His status and identity were precisely what her aunt wanted for her niece.<\/div>\n<div>When they learned that Serenity\u2019s husband was the heir to the York family, Jasmine\u2019s mother and aunt envied Serenity\u2019s good fortune, remarking in front of Jasmine about how she had landed one of the most remarkable men in Wiltspoon.<\/div>\n<div>They often looked at Jasmine while praising Serenity, and Jasmine understood their expressions all too well.<\/div>\n<div>Josh asserted confidently, \u201cI\u2019m not a scumbag. Not to brag, but there aren\u2019t many men in Wiltspoon who are more exceptional than I am.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI must have been a remarkable person in my past life for you to like me in this one.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe both must have been great in our past lives, which is why we met in this life. We need to continue being great in this life so we can meet again in the next.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Jasmine wanted to say, \u2018I don\u2019t want to meet you again in my next life. Your smile seems warm and friendly, but it\u2019s unnerving enough to keep people awake at night.\u2019<\/div>\n<div>However, she held her tongue.<\/div>\n<div>No one knew if an afterlife existed; she needed to focus on living her current life first.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe\u2019re not an item yet. My mom\u2014\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cIf I don\u2019t show them my determination, your mom and aunt will keep setting up blind dates for you. What should I do?\u201d<\/div>\n<p>\u201cAre you going to meet someone else again? I\u2019m glad I took a stand; otherwise, your mom would keep thinking I\u2019m gay and pursuing your brother.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cCough, cough\u2014\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Jasmine choked on the dessert she was eating. <\/p>\n<p>Josh quickly stood up, poured her a cup of warm water, and handed it to her while patting her back. \u201cIs it really that funny? You doubted me just like everyone else did.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>He had no idea that people today had such liberal views. <\/p>\n<p>He was merely being nice to his future brother-in-law for his own reasons, but Mrs. Sox misinterpreted it as a sign of affection for Drake. Even Jasmine shared that assumption. <\/p>\n<p>After taking a sip of water, Jasmine managed to catch her breath and laughed. \u201cYou treat my brother so well that it\u2019s practically spoiling him. Your eyes light up with indulgence whenever you look at him. It\u2019s your own actions that have led to these misunderstandings, so don\u2019t blame my mom and me for our wild imaginations.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Jasmine wouldn\u2019t have believed he was pursuing her if he hadn\u2019t said anything. <\/p>\n<p>Josh was at a loss for words. \u201cYour brother is my brother. What\u2019s wrong with spoiling my own brother?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe issue is that my brother isn\u2019t your brother. I can understand why my mom sighs every time she sees Drake and me nowadays. She keeps saying we should switch places, thinking you have feelings for Drake.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Josh replied, \u201cIf someone likes another person, they should express it openly. It\u2019s pointless to beat around the bush.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>It was easy for someone like Mrs. Sox, with her vivid imagination, to misunderstand things. <\/p>\n<p>Jasmine responded, \u201cThat\u2019s because people in high positions like you often have hidden motives and prefer to be indirect. Simple folks like me only worry about what we\u2019re going to eat each day; we don\u2019t think about the complexities of your world.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Josh chuckled. \u201cDon\u2019t make yourself sound so unfortunate. I think\u2026<\/p>\n<p>What concerns you all day is the need to travel to various locations to collect rent. Let me know the next time you\u2019re tired of this responsibility, and I\u2019ll gladly take on the role of your errand boy. I want to experience what it feels like to have house keys hanging all over me.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 886 Sadly, these good times were coming to an end.
