Fated love: the unwanted bride
Chapter 2604: Little Clementine Is Sylvan Cheney’s Illegitimate Daughter
"I’ll head over right away."
"Hey! CEO Caddel!" Jasmine Yale didn’t get a chance to say more!
She tidied herself up in front of the mirror; this look was still better, she still wasn’t quite used to wearing a cocktail dress.
Before she could walk out of the fitting room, Will Caddel knocked on the door, "Did you change? May I come in?"
"All set." Jasmine Yale opened the door.
Will Caddel gave Jasmine Yale a once-over, his gaze resting on her hand, "Did you injure your hand?"
"Just a scratch, nothing serious." She hid her hand behind her.
Will Caddel grabbed it and frowned deeply, "And you call this nothing? You’ve scraped off a whole layer of skin; don’t get it wet tonight, and don’t carry anything."
"I know, I’ll take good care of myself."
"How did you end up falling? I just went to the restroom and you fell down. Looks like I can’t let you out of my sight anymore."
"CEO Caddel, you know, I can be careless sometimes, absent-minded, and tonight I had a bit of alcohol, couldn’t balance in high heels, and just fell." She chuckled as if nothing had happened.
Will Caddel was rather helpless, "Getting hurt and still laughing, what’s so funny?"
"CEO Caddel cares about me, so I’m happy." Jasmine Yale laughed heartily.
"It’s getting late, we should head back to the hotel, tomorrow morning’s flight." Seeing her slightly tipsy, Will Caddel reached out to support her, "What about the dress? I’ll give it to the server, have it cleaned and sent back to Cakago."
"CEO Caddel, why do you think some people like to lie with a straight face? My gown... It’s clearly the new design we bought at the store a few days ago, isn’t it?" Jasmine Yale looked at him.
"What happened? This is a new Givenchy gown for this year, haute couture, did someone say your gown doesn’t look good?"
"No... they must be blind."
"Well, maybe they really are blind." Smart as Will Caddel was, he suddenly understood something, he supported Jasmine Yale with a smile, "I chose your gown, I’m very confident in my taste."
"I trust CEO Caddel too."
"Hmm, is there anything else you want to ask me?"
"Also... if there’s a man who has three children with three different women, what do you think of his character? And one is illegitimate." Jasmine Yale’s voice lowered. Little Clementine is Sylvan Cheney’s illegitimate daughter.
"This type of man is rather impressive too," Will Caddel said sarcastically, "Such individuals usually have three traits: good looks, wealth, and charm, but they share a common flaw - inconsistency."
Jasmine Yale listened to Will Caddel but didn’t speak.
Will Caddel led her out of the fitting room, "Don’t overthink. When people are drunk, they tend to think too much. I’ll take you back to the hotel, you can shower and get some sleep, tomorrow we head to the airport."
"Can we win this bid?"
"Whether we can depends on the person in charge here; we’ve done our best, haven’t we?"
"But I really want to win, CEO Caddel, since I joined ZR, I haven’t lost a single bid, right?"
"You’re competitive; usually, you seem easy-going, so why are you so driven at work? Do you like winning?" Will Caddel’s voice was very gentle, unusually patient with the drunken Jasmine.
It seemed that after he went to the restroom, she had drunk quite a bit more on her own.
"If I had no desires or ambitions for anything, it’s like... I wouldn’t see the meaning in life."
