Chapter 621
“Don’t go out, Seren. I’ll deal with him,” Jasmine said before rushing to the entrance of the bookshop to stop Shawn. Grabbing
him by the arm, Jasmine yanked him away.
“Jas.”
Forced to keep up with his cousin’s footsteps, Shawn tried to put a brake on the pulling, but Jasmine dragged him all the way to
his car with all her might.
“Unlock the car door!”
Jasmine ordered with a stern face.
Shawn gave her a rather disgruntled look.
“Jas.”
“I said, unlock the car door!” Jasmine sternly commanded. Although she was shorter than Shawn, she stood her ground against
the man. Her chilly eyes were fixated on Shawn until
the latter unlocked the door.
Jasmine opened the door and stuffed him into the car.
“Jas, I’m here for you, not Serenity.”
Forced to take the passenger seat, Shawn watched as his cousin buckled him up.
“Sit tight and don’t get out of the car!”
Jasmine ordered and shut the car door before getting into the car from the other side.
She moved quickly and decisively as she started the car and drove away with Shawn when Serenity emerged from the shop.
Serenity did not look too pleased.
After all that was said to Shawn, he still came looking for her. Was Shawn trying to drive her to move her shop elsewhere or
compelling her and Jasmine to break off their partnership?
It was a good thing that the term break was starting tomorrow, so there was no need for Serenity to be at the shop. She could
work on her crafts at home.
Serenity soon looked away and continued packing up. She moved the display racks at the door into the shop.
Jasmine sped all the way.
Despite Shawn’s attempts to break the silence, Jasmine refused to say a word.
“Jas.”
Shawn uttered peevishly, “Where are you taking me? I’m talking to you! Why are you ignoring me? I can’t have feelings for
Serenity anymore, but does that mean I can’t see my
own cousin?”
“Don’t come to the shop if Serenity is there.”
Tilting her head, Jasmine glared at him. “Shawn, are you trying to force Serenity to move. her shop elsewhere or sever our
business partnership?”
Shawn turned pale in the face and replied stubbornly, “I didn’t know Serenity was at the shop, Jas. I’ve been having it tough at
work. I just want to confide in you.”
He had always had a great relationship with his cousin.
Shawn would seek his cousin to stand up for him whenever he experienced a rough patch.
Sure, he had a lot of male cousins, but he had no guts to go straight to them.
Shawn would let Jasmine know, and Jasmine would notify the male cousins, so everybody would band up to stick up for him.)
His parents were nice to Jasmine’s family, not just because they were family, but also because Jasmine was supportive, helpful,
and protective toward him more than other family members do.
