Chapter 883

Josh was not impressed, to say the least. He had asked Jasmine out many times, but her parents still

had no clue that he was pursuing their daughter.

Here Mrs. Sox thought Mr. Bucham was asking Drake out.

Josh was lost for words.

Jasmine took her mother’s call.

“Mom.”

Jasmine chirped, “What can I do for you, mother dearest?”

“Don’t act smart with me. Come home early tonight. We’re going to your aunt’s for dinner.”

Jasmine asked warily, “What’s the occasion since we’re having dinner at Aunt Rachel’s place?”

Mrs. Sox fell silent for a while before asking in a hushed tone, “Is Serenity with you?”

“No.”

“Good. Shawn’s back but only for a couple of days. Your aunt has been missing him since he went to

Havenmill. Mothers are all the same. We can’t stop worrying when

our children are miles away. Now that Shawn’s back for a few days, your aunt wants

to organize a get-together.”

Scowling, Jasmine glanced at Josh and relayed the question that had been bugging her. “Mom, is

Shawn going to try anything?”

Zachary and Serenity were not in a good place right now. Jasmine hoped her

lovestruck cousin would not see this as an opportunity to jump in, or things might end badly for him.

No matter what, Shawn was her cousin. Jasmine did not wish for anything to happen

to him.

Aunt Rachel said they sent Shawn to work at the branch office in Havenmill. He was not to disclose

that he was the heir of the Lowes, starting from the bottom up at the branch office. Shawn must not

leave Havenmill and return to Wiltspoon without his

parents’ permission.

Shawn’s bank account was frozen by his father. Left without any allowance or a car, Shawn had to

work and earn his wages.

Since the branch office in Havenmill did not provide accommodation, Shawn had to rent a place and

pay the rental, water, and electricity bills with his salary.

For someone who was born with a silver spoon, life now was tough for Shawn.

Nevertheless, his parents only did so to save him and Lowe Enterprise.

York Corporation had cut the Lowes some slack lately.

Mr. and Mrs. Lowe could breathe again, relieved that they made the right call.

Jasmine was grateful Zachary got off her aunt and uncle’s backs.

It slipped Jasmine’s mind that she had Josh to thank for that.

Zachary ceased fire out of respect for Josh and Jasmine, but mostly for Josh.

Josh was pursuing Jasmine after all. Jasmine’s close relationship with her aunt was a good enough

reason for Zachary to keep his hands off Lowe Enterprise. Zachary and Josh should know when to quit

since the Lowes went so far as to send Shawn to Havenmill, a city many miles away from Wiltspoon.

“I doubt Shawn would do anything.”`

Mrs. Sox sighed. “Your aunt told him that Serenity is Mrs. York before he went to Havenmill. He lost all

hope and went there. He hasn’t been in touch with his family.

“He has time now that his office is closed for the next two days. He got his wages to pay for the trip

home.”

Mrs. Sox was surprised to hear that Shawn had a crush on Serenity.

Alas, the love confession came too late.

Serenity had belonged to another by then.
