Chapter 25 Money

"Are you short on money?" After dropping Jasmine off, Tom asked casually. Jasmine didn't speak; she just lowered her head and got out of the car.

"Take these for now; I don't usually carry cash. I'll bring you some more tomorrow." Tom fished out a few bills from the car and stuffed them into Jasmine's hand. "Don't degrade yourself for money. Even though you're used to luxury, you're not a real heiress. Even if you're pretending, you should be self-reliant."

Jasmine looked at the money Tom was offering but didn't take it, instead turning and walking away.

After saying that, Tom didn't realize his ears had turned red.

Cursing inwardly, Tom felt he had been too bold.

Jasmine bit her lip corner and glared at Tom, but she said nothing and ran into the alley.

"Damn..." Tom cursed again, feeling like he'd gone mad. Everyone knew Jasmine was dirty; any man would do, and she was even diseased.
