Chapter 99 Insight Into The Conspiracy

Jessica took a sip of the cold smoothie as she browsed Amazon on her laptop. Meanwhile, Yasmin went to grab new bedsheets for Jonathan.

Jonathan stood at the doorway, watching Yasmin change the sheets. As she kneeled on the bed and smoothed out the sheets, her backside was facing Jonathan.

Yasmin was wearing a pair of jeans that accentuated her bottom nicely.

Jonathan stared at her for a moment before hurriedly averting his gaze, feeling somewhat guilty. He regarded Yasmin like his own precious sister. Hence, it was not right to have such blasphemous thoughts.

At the same time, Jonathan was vexed by his feelings. Yasmin was too sensible and mature that it made one’s heart ache for her.

Just then, she finished laying out the sheets. Yasmin stood up and walked toward Jonathan.

Two wisps of hair had fallen, covering her beautiful eyes. Jonathan casually reached out and tucked the strands of hair behind her ears.

His actions made Yasmin blush bright red to the tips of her ears.

Jonathan also felt a little embarrassed after he realized what he had done, so he coughed and tried to strike up a conversation. “There aren’t many virtuous and capable girls like you anymore. Look at you, you’re good at housework and have your own source of income. Whoever marries you in the future will be an extremely lucky fellow.”

In the meantime, Yasmin had managed to regain her composure. Smiling faintly, she said, “I’m going out to buy you some daily necessities. You can check to see if you have anything else you need to be moved. Hurry and get it done before the sun sets. Jessy and I are throwing you a housewarming party tonight.”

Jonathan nodded in agreement.

With that, the two of them headed out to their own destinations, with Jonathan going to his old place, while Yasmin was headed to the supermarket to buy daily necessities for Jonathan.

Jessica had been too lazy to move, declaring she wanted to take an afternoon nap. Thus, the two of them had decided not to bother her.

As they exited the door, Jonathan suddenly asked, “Yasmin, why are you so nice to me?”

Yasmin was slightly taken aback by the question. After a moment, she asked, “Then, why are you nice to me?”

Jonathan laughed. “Hey, I asked first.”

“Well, it’s because you treat me well,” she replied. Yasmin stared at Jonathan with clear and unwavering eyes. There wasn’t a hint of apprehension in them at all. “I still don’t quite understand why someone as capable as you is acting as our bodyguard, protecting me. You’re like my personal guardian angel, appearing when I needed you the most.”

As Jonathan stared at Yasmin, he suddenly had the urge to tell her about Connor. However, he held her tongue. Smiling, he said, “I’m not sure why myself. Perhaps it’s fate. Fate works in mysterious ways.”

A hint of disappointment flashed across Yasmin’s eyes. She did not know what to say in response to that.
