Chapter 423: Chapter 423: The Engagement Ceremony is Still a Month Away
Joe Heath was deep in thought.
Jasmine Yale laughed: “I don’t understand either. I just think so. How about we go shopping?”
“Um…actually, I’d rather you buy me a gift.” Joe Heath grinned mischievously.
When he looked at her, his eyes were filled with affection.
Now, Jasmine was more enchanting than before.
She was charming, beautiful, and cute.
“Who asks people for gifts? If you ask me, I’m even less likely to give you one.” Jasmine joked, playing with the bag in her hand. “Maybe some other day, I will give you one?”
“Do you know what gift I want the most?”
Jasmine innocently looked up at his handsome face: “What?”
“You.”
” ” Jasmine pinched his arm, “Get out!”
They laughed and joked all the way to the mall.
Seeing Jasmine in high spirits, Joe knew that she no longer held a place for Sylvan Cheney in her heart.
Even when she was picking out gifts, she did so openly.
It was as if… it was just his friend who was getting engaged, and she had no connection with it at all.
After much deliberation, she was still undecided about what to choose.
Eventually, she stopped before a jade pendant for peace.
The jade pendant glowed with a mysterious luster, clear and translucent.
Especially under the light, it looked even more fresh and tempting.
“This one is beautiful.” Jasmine Yale said, pointing to the glass display case and examining it closely.
This pendant was really beautiful.
And the meaning was good.
Joe Heath took a look, it was indeed nice.
But, it was only suitable for a child to wear.
It seemed… Jasmine hadn’t entirely erased Chale Cheney from her mind.
This gift was obviously chosen for a child.
Joe Heath also lowered his head to take a look, and joked: “You’re really not helping me save money, look at this price.”
Jasmine hadn’t actually noticed.
Only after hearing what Joe Heath said did she take a look, and—
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million.
Uh… Jasmine was taken aback.
Jasmine laughed, her eyes crinkling into crescents, she tugged at Joe Heath’s arm: “It’s okay, Boss Heath is rich, we can’t skimp on the engagement gift.” “So we’re getting this?”
“Yes, this one. Nothing else is as good.”
“Alright, as you wish.”
Joe Heath readily agreed. If Jasmine said it was good, then he thought it was good.
Moreover, this pendant was indeed nice, petite and exquisite, made of top-quality jade.
After paying with his card, Joe Heath said: “I will have my assistant deliver this gift later. As for my friend’s engagement party, I think, I’ll find an excuse to skip it and stay here with you.”
“I thought you said you were going home?”
“But I’m worried about you, and besides, we don’t see each other often.” Joe Heath was worried about her.
“I’m not a child, and you have your bodyguards following me. Nothing’s wrong. You should go home.”
“Alright then, the engagement party is still a month away, it won’t be too late if I go back after a month, remember to behave.”
Joe Heath couldn’t win an argument with Jasmine.
“When did I misbehave?” Jasmine was unsatisfied.
“How about we go on a trip to the beach the next time I come to Singapore?
This dress you’re wearing today is perfect for the beach.”
“Why wait? How about tomorrow?”
“Tomorrow?!” Joe Heath laughed, typical prathetic Jasmine. “Okay, do you want to take my private plane?”
“That’s way too grand, let’s not.” Jasmine declined.
She waved the shopping bag in her hand: “In fact, I just want to wear my new dress!”
