Chapter 1040 - Chapter 1040 Chapter 1040 I Will Not Be the Third Party

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: I Will Not Be the Third Party Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: I Will Not Be the Third Party Chale Cheney was most obedient to Jasmine Yale, gleefully hugging Jasmine Yale’s change purse.

“Okay!” he crisply agreed, revealing two rows of pearly baby teeth.

He trotted off with small steps.

Only Jasmine Yale and Cora Jorney were left standing there!

Cora Jorney hadn’t recovered from her shock and dismay, her eyes brimming with anger. That hint of reddened gaze seemed ready to set Jasmine Yale ablaze.

Jasmine Yale brushed aside the stray hairs by her ear, looking towards Cora Jorney.

As the evening breeze blew, she detected an unusual scent in the air.

“Jasmine Yale, don’t you think you owe me an explanation? What did you promise me? And what exactly does this mean, what you’re doing now?” Cora Jorney suppressed her emotions, fixing her gaze on Jasmine Yale.

The atmosphere suddenly became very tense and cold.

“Before leaving Landon, Chale and I were already close,” Jasmine Yale considered her words and spoke indifferently, “This time he came to Cakago, I just took him along to have some fun, that’s all.”

“Jasmine Yale, capturing a child’s heart to then capture his father’s heart, is that it?”

Cora Jorney’s eyes filled with scorn.

She had thought that once Jasmine Yale agreed to leave Sylvan Cheney, there would be no further entanglement.

But she hadn’t expected Jasmine Yale to get so close to Sylvan Cheney’s son.

This truly was beyond her expectations.

But she admitted, it indeed was a shortcut, a good strategy.

She had underestimated Jasmine Yale.

“Of course, it’s not what you think. I just genuinely like children,” Jasmine Yale stated calmly.

“There are so many children on the streets, and I haven’t seen you take to anyone. Why is it that you only like Mr. Cheney’s son? Jasmine Yale, your intentions are as clear as day,” Cora Jorney said. “Coming abroad, you still want to be connected to the Cheney family? Were your promises to me just empty words?”

“Think what you want, but my promise to you won’t change. I won’t interfere with your daughter and Mr. Cheney’s relationship, I won’t be the third party.”

“But what are you doing now? Don’t you realize children get attached easily, that he’ll become inseparable from you?” Cora Jorney noted that Chale Cheney was already very attached to Jasmine Yale.

And Jasmine Yale was even taking the little guy out in matching outfits.

This woman’s slyness was greater than she thought.

“I will try to see Chale less from now on,” Jasmine Yale said blandly.

“It’s not about trying to see Chale less, you shouldn’t see him at all!” Cora Jorney was livid, “Don’t you know that Mr. Cheney and Joan are in a good relationship? What if Chale doesn’t want Joan and wants you instead? Or is it that you’ve foreseen this possibility and now you’re deliberately getting close to Chale?”

“Chale is very understanding, he won’t reject Miss Harry,” Jasmine Yale spoke with a gentle voice, tinged with a hint of wistfulness that spread quietly like a blanket of mist. “Professor Jorney, you can rest assured.”

“How can I be assured? You’ve even worn matching outfits with Chale, how can I believe you aren’t coveting Mr. Cheney?”

Jasmine Yale chuckled lightly. Matching outfits, huh?

When they went out, the little guy wanted to wear the same clothes as her, and she happened to have a white T-shirt, so she wore it.

“Also, don’t you think you’ve dressed Chale too plainly?” Cora Jorney said.

Too plainly?

Jasmine Yale laughed silently; the clothes were not even bought by her.

If she remembered correctly, they were purchased by his father.

Besides, she didn’t think they were plain–on the contrary, they were simple and looked nice.
