Chapter 288

"Miss, this watch isn't cheap, and fixing it will be pricey too," the owner said. "Do you want to repair just the strap and glass, or the case as well?" The case had only minor scratches, barely visible unless inspected closely. Yasmine's index finger still throbbed a bit. "Fix everything, please. How long will it take?" she inquired.

The boss thought for a moment and said, "This Lange watch is made by Steinreich. Some parts can only be sourced from there. You might not find it here in Soucrity. Repairing it could take weeks or even months." Yasmine nodded, "Money's no issue." She pulled a check from her handbag, handed it to the boss, and walked out.

She couldn't quite say why she came to fix the watch, but today something clicked. Those eyes looked just like Chuck's, who is Lucy's boyfriend.

The moment Yasmine got out of the car, Finola rushed toward her looking worried. "Miss, you need to get to the Sanchez Group to find the young master right away."

Seeing the concern in Finola's eyes and the sweat on her forehead, Yasmine knew something was up. "Finola, what's going on?" Yasmine asked, brows furrowed.

Finola pleaded, "Miss, please don't ask now and don't go in. Wait till the young master returns-"

"What's going on here?" Yasmine questioned, her posture tense, eyes narrowing.

Finola shot a worried glance at the front gate. "The madam and the young lady from the Bowers family brought Christine over. They're here to teach you a lesson. The young master isn't home; he's at the office, and the madam couldn't hold them back. Miss, you shouldn't go in now, they're causing quite a commotion."

"What are they making a fuss about now?" Yasmine asked, her gaze growing colder.

"It's all about Caleb," Finola said, anger coloring her cheeks. "Mrs. Mayfield is acting like it's the end of the world. Miss, this is the Mayfield family's own doing, and the master won't spare him once he's back."

Yasmine gave Finola's hand a reassuring pat. "Even if they don't make a scene this time, they'll be back to cause trouble again. Don't worry, I've got it under control." She let go of Finola's hand and headed inside the house, stepping past her.

Finola cast a worried glance at Yasmine, suddenly getting the feeling that something was different about her.

In the hall, Claire was both crying and shouting, "What on earth did we do to upset Yasmine, leading to my nephew's arrest by the police? How can I explain this to my brother? We're all family, why is she being so harsh?"
