His Precious Love

Chapter 211 Jealous Of His Own Son

Somebody very important to her?

Recalling her gentle tone while she was on the phone, Theodore became even tenser. “You’re getting married on the twentieth of next month, Jasmine,” he said coldly. “Please watch your conduct.”

Jasmine glanced at him. “Watch my what?”

His hardened face and cold tone were easy hints to pick up. At once, her face broke into a smile.

Is he actually jealous of his own son?

Back when they were at the banquet hall, she dared not approach him or say anything as there were too many people present. As of then, however, they were alone in the car.

Jasmine pursed her red lips, then began, “You’ve misunderstood, Theodore. Actually—” Unexpectedly, his ringing phone cut her off.

As cars like his were difficult to maneuver, Theodore had to fish out his phone and put it on loudspeaker.

“Where are you, Teddy?”

A girl’s voice, sweet and feminine, sounded as soon as the call connected.

Jasmine felt chilly to the core as though cold water had been flung on her.

That term of address is too intimate.

Theodore did not notice the change in her expression. Even though he was greatly annoyed at the phone call, he tried hard to suppress it as though he had some misgivings. “I’m on my way home. Why did you call me?”

“C-Could you come over? I’m at the place where we last dined together.” The girl spoke in a coy voice before adding pitifully, “They are bullying me…”

“Hey, watch your words, Stephanie. Since when were we bullying you?”

“Exactly. You were the one who lost the bet!”

“Get your boyfriend over here to drink!”

After the girl spoke, a chorus of five other voices sounded, all laughing with glee at her, who then told them off angrily to stop lying.

“I can’t make it,” Theodore answered. “Call someone and have them pick you up.”
