Mr. Tycoon's Beloved Wife: The Madam No One Dares to Offend
Chapter 487: Misty Flower
...
Henry was pulled out of the supermarket reluctantly.
He wanted to rush back but was stopped by Annabelle.
"She might dislike you even more if you go in like this."
It was a blow. Henry immediately stopped.
He stared at the door of the supermarket with red eyes.
Annabelle tugged at him and sighed, "Henry, don’t look anymore. She won’t come out for you."
These words made Henry feel even worse.
He turned to look at Annabelle and said through gritted teeth, "Am I that bad? Why can’t she like me?"
"Is that man better than me? Why she likes him!"
Annabelle was stunned for a moment before she realized that the "man" Henry was referring to was the one Jasmine said she "has a crush on".
She frowned and said, "Henry, as the saying goes, those closely involved cannot see it clearly. The one she likes is you."
"Me...?"
It took a while for Henry to recover from his shock. But he still disbelieved.
He didn’t even dare to be happy.
Annabelle nodded, "If she doesn’t like you, she wouldn’t have been looking at you from the moment you entered."
Annabelle knew about girls.
If a girl liked someone, she could not hide it.
She won’t keep looking at Henry if she only thought of him as an "ordinary classmate". It would be impolite.
Although she had put on a very cold expression, her telltale eyes spoke the truth. Henry said uncertainly, "Did you see wrongly? Wasn’t she looking at you?"
Although he was overjoyed, Henry restrained himself. Now was not the time to be happy.
He had to know if Jasmine really liked him.
"She clearly saw through our relationship, so she said that to you. If you don’t believe me, we’ll wait and see if she will secretly care about you."
"Care about me?"
Annabelle walked across the road and Henry had to follow.
"Will she really care about me?"
He was uncertain.
But Annabelle was very confident, "Of course, but we need to use some tricks."
When they reached the car, she pulled the door open and got in without answering Henry’s further questions.
Fiona, who was hiding in the car, hurried over and asked, "How is it? Did she take the bait?"
"We are only halfway through."
Annabelle said calmly.
Henry was confused when he heard this.
But Fiona understood. She nodded and said with a smile, "Alright, then we can only replay a classic scene."
"What scene?"
Henry asked.
The next second, both of the sisters turned to him and ordered, "Drive the car!"
Henry thought, "I’m only their driver."
In Sun City University.
The classroom was quiet.
Jasmine subconsciously turned around and looked at the empty seat. She frowned slightly.
Henry had not come to the school for three days. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Many girls would be affected now the Prince Charming had been absent for days.
Finally, the class was over. Mike, who was usually inseparable from Henry, packed up his things and left.
Jasmine pursed, took her things, and slowly walked out of the classroom.
The apartment she rented was not far from the campus, so it was very convenient for her to take care of her mother. Although the price was slightly expensive for her.
But Jasmine was satisfied as long as she could be with her mother.
Down the stairs.
A deep voice sounded.
"Henry won’t die, will he?"
"Even if he was saved, he would be crippled. Fortunately, Jasmine didn’t take a fancy to him. Otherwise, Henry would be heartbroken."
"Yeah, I heard that Jasmine is very poor. She gets along with Henry for his money. Now, Henry will become a cripple. What should he do in the future?"
"It’s better if he became a cripple. I’m afraid that his life is in danger. I heard that the car was badly damaged."
"Keep quiet, no one is allowed to talk about it. The school has covered up the news. Don’t you know?"
Just as Mike finished speaking, the door suddenly opened.
Jasmine stood by the door and looked at them. She asked, "Where, where is he?"
Mike was stunned, "Who are you talking about?"
"Henry."
"Oh, I heard that he is dying. He has already been taken away by his family..."
With that, Jasmine hurriedly left.
The few of them regained their senses and said in surprise, "She really believed it."
Mike rubbed his chin and said proudly, "I can make her believe whatever I say. It seems that I have the talent to be an actor."
Mike started to dream about his life after becoming a superstar.
...
"If I stay here, will she really come to find me?"
In the apartment.
Henry walked back and forth uneasily. He hadn’t gone to school for a few days. He didn’t know how Jasmine was doing.
Would she be happy on hearing that Henry could no longer pester her? "Henry, calm down."
Annabelle was watching the TV and drinking the juice.
"How can I calm down? Look at me, am I calm?"
His heart was in a mess right now.
Fiona looked up at him and said, "You make me dizzy."
And then she turned to Annabelle, "Anna, if our sister-in-law comes here, should we leave them alone?"
At this moment, Henry received a message from Mike.
Jasmine believed them!
Annabelle got up from the sofa and glanced at her sister, "Let’s go. We have nothing to do here."
Henry was not in the mood to listen to his two sisters. He walked to the balcony and kept looking out.
Fiona pursed and muttered, "Anna, Henry looks so silly."
Annabelle nodded, "He is."
"We are twins, so is he and Andrew. Why is there such a big gap between Henry and Andrew?"
Fiona spoke and sighed.
When their mother was pregnant, she must have been too biased.
"He is not self-motivated and does not lay a solid foundation."
Fiona looked at the serious Annabelle and asked, "What does that mean?" "To put it simply, identical twins and fraternal twins are not the same things." Annabelle explained seriously. Fiona took a deep breath.
She covered her little face and said, "Anna, I feel embarrassed listening to you."
She added in a low voice, "This is not what we the underage should know."
Annabelle gave her a sidelong glance and said, "It’s biology!"
The two sisters left together with red faces, leaving Henry alone in the room.
After a long time, there was finally a light knock on the door.
Henry’s eyes lit up. He forgot to play a patient now and quickly ran to the door.
Jasmine stood nervously at the door. The door was opened and Henry stood inside.
She was stunned.
"You’re here!"
Henry smiled.
Jasmine finally came to her senses, "Didn’t you get hit by a car?"
Henry was reminded by her words and anxiously looked down at his leg wrapped in bandages. He smiled and said, "Yes, but it wasn’t serious."
Jasmine looked at his right leg, which was wrapped in a thick layer of bandage, and frowned.
Was this not serious?
It was clearly a fracture!
However, if it was a fracture, how could he have run so fast to open the door for her? Jasmine suddenly realized something.
With a hint of anger, she threw a bag of fruits into his arms.
"If you are fine, I will leave first."
She no longer looked at Henry and was about to leave.
Henry was anxious. He threw away the things in his hand and held Jasmine into his arms.
"You are angry!"
Jasmine struggled, "I didn’t."
"You have, you have. My sister said that you like me. She said that you will care about me."
That was why they had asked him to play this trick, but before he could not resist telling her the truth.
Jasmine pursed her lips and sighed.
She didn’t make a big fuss like an ordinary girl. She just turned to him and said, "I do like you."
Henry was surprised and thought, "She really likes me!
My sister is right, my sister is daydreaming!
Before the smile on Henry’s face bloomed, Jasmine opened her mouth again.
"I like your money more. I thought that if you really hit badly, I can come here to put on a show of affection and friendship. Your family will probably give me compensation after that. But now it seems that... it is useless for me to act."
Jasmine’s voice sounded very cold and clear in the room.
Henry opened his mouth in shock, "What are you talking about?"
Jasmine sneered, "I say, a person like you is not worthy of my love at all. It’s just that your family is rich. You also know that I have to work to support myself, but it was tiring. I want to take a shortcut."
Jasmine said as she shook off Henry’s hands. She turned around and said, "Since we are frank with each other now, stay away from me in the future. I am not worth it!"
...
Jasmine turned around. She forced back the tears in her eyes.
She clenched her hands tightly into fists and felt the pain of her fingertips cutting in the flesh.
Although she was not good at lying, a fool like Henry would believe her.
They came from different worlds, and there would be no good result if they come together.
Subconsciously, Jasmine told herself that she had to hurry and escape from here.
However, before she could take a step, a figure suddenly pounced on her from behind and pulled her into a strong embrace.
Henry’s voice was filled with joy.
"Great, you are finally willing to like me. I was afraid that you would think me tacky if I give you the money. Now you like money, and I happen to have money. We can be together."
"Don’t worry, although I can’t inherit the Anderson Group, we won’t be short of money in the future. How much do you want, I will give you all my savings, okay?"
The subtext was that Jasmine must like him.
Jasmine was stunned.
Even she didn’t expect this.
She broke away from Henry, turned around, and frowned. "What did you say?"
She thought that a boy born with a silver spoon like him is usually rich, naughty, and arbitrary. He would not allow her to trample on his pride like this.
However, he had no pride at all.
He could still smile so happy when she asked for money.
Jasmine doubted whether he is a fool.
Jasmine stared at Henry. Unexpectedly, she did not see any disdain or disguise in his eyes. He smiled in his eyes.
"How much do you want? I don’t have much on me right now. I have bought a lot of snacks for my sister this month. I will give you all my pocket money next month, okay?"
As he spoke, he took out a bank card from his pocket.
He looked at Jasmine in embarrassment and said, "Here is all that left. There should be about a few thousand. You can take it. My pocket money will be transferred to my account on the 30th. If you can’t wait, I’ll call Andrew now and borrow his money. Is that okay for you?"
Jasmine thought, "It’s not okay at all!"
She was at a loss about what was going on.
Jasmine looked at the bank card in her hand and did not come back to her senses for a long time.
She should be the one who set the trap. Why did it feel like that she had fallen into a trap now?
Jasmine frowned and stuffed the bank card back into Henry’s hand.
She said blankly, "Do you think I will be satisfied with such a small amount of money? If you want to be my boyfriend, give me fifty million. You know, a woman like me, who comes from a poor background, can’t be without money. And if you really want to be with me, you can’t be so poor in your studies."
"You are also the son of the Anderson family. Why can’t you inherit the Anderson Group? If you want to be with me, you should be the heir. I will only be with you when you have fame and status."
A profligate like Henry was most likely spoiled by his family and had an intelligent elder brother.
Unless the elders lost their minds, Henry couldn’t be the heir.
Sure enough, Henry was challenged.
Jasmine heaved a sigh of relief and sneered, "You can’t do it, right? So please stay away..."
"You study so well. Can’t you just help me run the Anderson Group?" "What did you say?" Jasmine asked.
Henry frowned, "Since you are so good at studying, you will do a good job in running the Anderson Group. In fact, I have already thought about what you said. I and Andrew are twins, why can’t I be the heir? You are right, I also want to inherit the Anderson Group. At least, I have to take half of the family property. Do you think one billion is enough for you?"
Jasmine thought, "You should ask yourself if you are smart enough."
While Jasmine was in a daze, Henry held her hand and said, "If I knew that your request is so simple, I wouldn’t have had to pretend to be in a car accident."
Jasmine was shocked, "What is he talking about? Does he still have a sober mind?"
