When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 89
It was rejected by Gabriel without hesitation.
At that time, Neil was still a little angry. He felt that Gabriel should consider his marriage. This matter made Neil
worry.
But it is a good thing that Gabriel had rejected it. Otherwise, Gabriel would miss such an outstanding girl like C**a! Fate is really magical, Neil thought.
Jasmine was in disbelief. She thought, Did Neil mean that I should be grateful to Gina for helping me clean up my mess? This **h is not worthy!â
âArenât you going to thank Gina? She helped you save me. Arenât you happy?â Neil asked.
Isaac covered his mouth and smiled. He thought, âWhen does Neil become so sarcastic?â
Jasmine was very uncomfortable as if there was a thorn stuck in her throat.
Under Neilâs gaze, she said reluctantly, âMiss Miller, thank you for saving Neil. Fortunately, with you, Neil can be healthy and safe. Neil is healthy and safe, which has always been my wish.â
Jasmine didnât forget to express how much she cared about Neil.
About Jasmineâs fake concern, Neil did not feel touched at all.
He knew what was true and what was false. Ginaâs concern for him was not expressed verbally, but she had always proved it with practical actions.
When he thought about how Gina had silently asked the Prover Hospital to provide him with good medicinal herbs but charged him at an ordinary standard, Neil felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Jasmine composed herself and continued to try to get close to Neil. âNeil, Iâll stay for dinner today. Is that okay? Isaac saw me coming and instructed the nanny to cook more for me just like before,â she said.
Jasmine stressed the words âjust like beforeâ.
Isaac exposed her mercilessly. âMiss Bush, you asked for this yourself. However, I havenât instructed the kitchen yet.â
Jasmine choked and clenched her fists in anger.
She pretended not to care that Isaac was exposing her. âThen Iâll have to trouble Isaac to give the order now.
Isaac looked at Neil. âMr. Jackson, do you want Miss Bush to stay for dinner?â
âShe can stay
if she wants,â Neil said.
Isaac was a little unhappy. He thought that Neil would not agree. Thinking about it, it should be because of the relationship between the two families that he did not want to argue with Jasmine.
âOkay, Isaac nodded.
âNeil, I havenât had dinner with you in a long time. After dinner, Iâll play chess with you and practice painting, okay?â Jasmine said proudly.

She continued, âNell, can you help me take a look at some of the jewelry designs Iâve been designing recently? By the way, I won third place in the National Design League.â
Neil was puzzled. âDidnât your family say that you came in second place?â
Jasmine felt a little awkward and she said, âAt that time, the results hadnât been announced yet. My family guessed it.â
Jasmine also felt that this was very strange.
She was sure that the news her family had heard was true. In the end, when it was announced, she was actually in third place.
âNo, you donât have to accompany me. I donât plan to eat at home tonight.â Neil rejected.
Jasmine was embarrassed and she said, âNeil, youâre not eating at home tonight?â
She thought. Then what is the point of me staying in the Jackson family?â
âYes, I want to treat Gina to a meal outside. Gina, call Gabriel and ask him to meet us after work,â Neil looked at Gina and said happily.
C**a was still a little confused. She asked, âMe? Should I make a call?
Gina suddenly felt that if she were to make the call, the meaning of this meal would not be so ordinary. Moreover, Neilâs tone made it seem as if they were family.
âThatâs right. Why donât you just send a message to him on WhatsApp? How was the s**y wings last time? Are you satisfied with the environment of the private room? Do you want to go again?â Neil asked Gina about her preferences.
Jasmine thought, What? Neil actually brought this country bumpkin to such a high-end place for a meal?â
y angry. Neil didnât even invite her.
She was very
Gina had difficulty choosing. Iâm okay with anything.â
Neil said, âLetâs pick as we go.â
âOkay, Gina replied.
As Jasmine looked at the happy scene between the two of them, she felt as if she had become a part of the background.
She said indignantly, âNeil, then I donât want to stay here for dinner. Iâll go with you!â
âItâs not suitable,â Neil rejected firmly. He wanted to tell Jasmine that there was their family banquet and she could not go with them.
Neil wanted to save some face for Jasmine. He hoped she could understand his words!
Unexpectedly, not only did Jasmine not restrain herself, she even started to get angry, âWhy not? Itâs because Miss Miller doesnât want me to go with you two. I admit that I offended you just now, but I did apologize, didnât I?
âMiss Miller, tell me. What do I have to do to make Neil agree to let me follow you?â
Jasmine had never suffered such grievances since she was young. Her voice was mixed with sobbing.
It was as if the arrogant and domineering person was Gina, and she was the victim.

Gina said calmly, âYou donât have to do a thing. Iâm indeed unwilling. Itâs very abrupt and presumptuous for you to follow
âYou⦠Jasmine gritted her teeth in anger. I know everyone in the Jackson family earlier than Gina. Why does everyone like her more than me?â she thought.
Neil also said, âIsaac has already instructed the kitchen to prepare food for you, but youâre not eating anymore. Isnât that a
waste?â
Jasmine was speechless.
âLetâs go then,â Neil cheerfully called out to Gina.
Gina suddenly thought of something.
âNeil, show me the box with the ring. How long can the herbs inside last?â she said.
Ginaâs medicine land had been destroyed. She planned to find a new one to plant. She would first plant some medicine that was urgently needed, such as medicine for Neilâs heart disease and herbs to maintain the ring.
Coincidentally, Isaac returned after instructing the kitchen to prepare food. Neil asked Isaac to take out the box.
Jasmine, who was still angry and indignant, suddenly remembered that the box had been thrown into the trash can just now! For some reason. Jasmine felt guilty. However, she had only thrown it into the trash can. At most, she could just pick it up. However, she still felt that Neil would be angry.
She bit her lip and thought, âTâd better leave as soon as possible. After all, no one saw me throw it at that time.â
Jasmine looked up Iâm
and said to Neil, âNeil, since youâre going out to eat with Miss Miller. I wonât disturb you any 1 going home. Iâm sorry for making the kitchen work for nothing.â
