Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Character Problem (6)
At least it wouldn’t be like now, facing the inevitable separation after encountering an unforeseen situation.
The two lovers spent the whole night together, and Carolline’s phone was already off when Jasmine called.
Jasmine didn’t get through and didn’t try again, as it was already late. Maybe they’d gone to bed, but since Carolline called, it should be good news.
Jasmine was already tired, and Christopher was still on the phone. She didn’t plan to go out and check, so she lay in bed waiting. She didn’t know how long she waited, but when she was feeling drowsy, Christopher finally came in.
"What phone call took so long?" Seeing Christopher enter, Jasmine sat up, supporting her waist.
"Well, it’s nothing. A friend asked me to come out for his birthday tonight. You can go to sleep first, and I’ll try to come back as soon as possible." Christopher said, opening the wardrobe and choosing an outfit.
"But it’s so late, and your friend still wants you to go out?" Jasmine was somewhat dissatisfied. It was too late, and she was pregnant and uncomfortable. She needed someone to accompany her, what if something happened?
"I have no choice. I have some hope now, and I want to discuss cooperation with others. Fine, I’ll drink less wine and come back as soon as possible. You can sleep and don’t wait for me." Christopher finished speaking, took the car key and wallet, and left.
Jasmine didn’t think much and went to sleep. Pregnant women are naturally sleepy, especially in the later stages of pregnancy, when she would wake up more often during the night. Anyway, being pregnant is not an easy thing.
What Jasmine never expected was that Christopher would lie. Tonight, he didn’t attend a friend’s birthday party but went to meet a woman.
The woman was Scarlett Cervantes, a rich daughter of the local Powell Family. The family had money but no power. They accidentally learned that Christopher was a descendant of the Kyoto Lopez Family and set their sights on him.
Scarlett tried several times to seduce Christopher but failed. Now that she finally had his weakness, the Powell Family’s plan was to fund Christopher’s business, but he must divorce Jasmine and marry Scarlett first.
It was Scarlett who called him just now. They had more transactions than feelings between them. Christopher understood that the woman he loved was Jasmine, and she was about to give birth to their child. If he proposed a divorce to Jasmine now, he would feel like a terrible person, let alone others.
However, he wanted to prove himself to his grandfather at the moment, so tonight he had to meet Scarlett. If Bryan Cooper couldn’t help, he had to find another way out for himself.
——Dividing Line——
The next day, when Carolline woke up, Bryan Hawkins was already gone and had left her a note.
The content of the note was nothing more than telling her to take good care of herself, drive carefully, and so on.
Carolline smiled, thinking of Bryan Hawkins leaving the note and feeling happy.
Aunt Lu got up early and prepared breakfast for her and Axel. While eating breakfast, Carolline remembered that she hadn’t told Jasmine about yesterday, so she quickly called her.
"Hello? Carolline, do you have good news?" Jasmine answered the phone right away. At this time, Christopher was already back. He had only been out for two hours last night and returned home, evidently not having reached an agreement with the other party.
Christopher was thinking that Bryan Hawkins, after all, was the richest man in town. No matter how rich the Powell Family was, they couldn’t compete with him. As long as Bryan Hawkins agreed to help him this time, he could overcome his difficulties.
