Fated love: the unwanted bride
Chapter 1070 - Chapter 1070 Chapter 1070 Not the Same as Before

Chapter 1070: Chapter 1070: Not the Same as Before Chapter 1070: Chapter 1070: Not the Same as Before Arriving at the bakery, Jasmine Yale put Sweet Kitty down on the ground and went to help the proprietor settle accounts.

The work wasn’t long or intense in the evening, mainly involving tallying the accounts and checking the inventory.

Just as she set her backpack down, her phone rang.

An unfamiliar number.

“Hello.”

“It’s me,” Sylvan Cheney’s voice came through, “Have you arrived at the bakery?”

“Yes, I’m here.”

“I forgot to tell you that there’s a fireworks show on Lake Machigan tomorrow night. I’ll pick you up after work.”

“I don’t plan to watch the fireworks,” Jasmine knew about the show.

“Then you can let your cat accompany me. Can’t watch the fireworks alone.”

“Are you in Cakago by yourself?”

“I am,” Sylvan replied indifferently, “I’ve accompanied you once before, so is it not okay for you to accompany me once as well?”

Jasmine remembered the year he had watched the fireworks with her.

That time it was in their homeland.

“I promise you,” Jasmine’s voice was soft and light.

After hanging up, Aunt Camden, the proprietor, asked with concern, “Jasmine, are you in a relationship?”

“Eh? No, it’s just a friend.”

“Going to watch the fireworks? You should go, it’s beautiful, and you won’t regret it. You’re new here, and this is the first show of the year, and it’s also the best one.”

“Then Aunt Camden, I won’t come to the shop tomorrow night.”

“That’s fine, it’s okay. You can’t always be studying and working part-time. It’s not easy to come abroad; you should also take in the sights.”

“Thank you, Aunt Camden.”

Sweet Kitty on the sofa meowed.

Glancing at it, Jasmine laughed, “I’m not taking you.”

Tomorrow would definitely be crowded, and if she took Sweet Kitty, she might lose her.

If that happened, she’d be heartbroken.

Sweet Kitty seemed to understand Jasmine’s words, drooping its head and meowing sadly.

Annoying.

…

The next day, Sylvan Cheney arrived as promised.

By the time she got off work, it was already dark, and his Mercedes was parked motionless on the opposite side of the street.

After getting into the car, Jasmine opened the passenger door.

Sylvan personally drove, taking her to Lake Machigan.

The night was falling outside the window, and the lights had just come on, radiating brilliantly on the ground like long dragons.

The bustling city night was extravagantly lit up with neon lights.

“Let’s go have dinner first, and after that I’ll drive there,” Sylvan said.

“Okay.”

Jasmine noticed he was dressed casually today, in a khaki coat–fashionable and simple, not at all like the stern Mr. Cheney of old.

“Did you come to Cakago for a meeting, or are you on vacation?” Jasmine couldn’t resist asking.

“A date.”

“Date?”

“Yes.”

Jasmine moved her lips but asked no more.

Sylvan took her to a delicate Michelin-starred restaurant, and after dinner, they walked to the lakefront together.

There was no wind that evening, and the weather was crisp, perfect for watching fireworks.

Walking beside him, Jasmine looked up at him and realized that the boy of those years was no longer the same.

He was more mature than before, and even more charismatic.

A thirty-year-old man is always quite different from a twenty-two-year-old.

Sylvan was no exception.

He stood beside her, as steady as a mountain.

He had never been much of a talker, and that hadn’t changed.

Eight years ago, she might not have thought that the same person would be by her side, watching fireworks with her, eight years on.

A myriad of emotions suddenly welled up in Jasmine’s heart.

These feelings brewed slowly, spreading like weeds entangling her heart.
