Chapter 349


    In a cafe, Jasmine picked a secluded corner and sat down.


    Shawn sat opposite her.


    “Shawn, what do you want to drink?”


    “Whatever. I‘ll have whatever you have.”


    Jasmine said to the waiter, “Two cups of ck coffee, please.”


    “Jas, ck coffee is bitter.”‘


    Jasmine nced at him. Shawn then said sheepishly, “Fine


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    LLLLL


    After the two cups of coffee were served, Jasmine asked bluntly, “Shawn, I have a question for you.


    Are you in love with Serenity?”


    Shawn was stunned.


    He stared nkly at Jasmine.


    “Jas...”


    “Tell me the truth!”


    Jasmine ordered.


    Shawn‘s face slowly flushed red.


    Did he show it?


    “Jas, I... I like Serenity.”


    “When did it start?”


    Shawn said in a low voice, “I don‘t know when it started. It might have been when I first learned about


    love when I was 14 years old, or maybe 17.”


    Jasmine said in a gloomy face, “You‘ve had a crush on Serenity for so long.”


    Shawn hid it long enough.


    Jasmine and Serenity were not even aware of that and had treated Shawn as a younger brother. In


    fact, Shawn was three years younger than the two of them. He was like a younger brother to them.


    Shawn blushed.


    .


    “Shawn, just give up. Serenity won‘t like you back. She has always treated you as a younger brother. It


    was fine when she was single, but now she‘s married...”


    LE


    “Jas, didn‘t you say that Serenity and her husband married for convenience? They‘ll get divorced after


    six months.”


    Jasmine said with a cold face, “You don‘t need to bother why they got married. The point is, Serenity is


    married.


    She‘s someone else‘s wife. Do you want to be a homewrecker?”


    Shawn said resentfully, “I met Serenity first.”


    “Love isn‘t firste first served. Did you know? Thest time Serenity treated you to lunch, her


    husband saw her putting some food on your te because your favorite dish was ced in front of her.


    That caused a misunderstanding

    and a fight between them.”


    Shawn said, “That just shows how petty her husband is. He doesn‘t trust her, and couples who don‘t


    respect each other won‘t have asting rtionship. They‘ll get divorced sooner orter.”


    “Whether or not they get a divorce isn‘t important. What matters is that Serenity is married now, so you


    shouldn‘t get close to her anymore. Don‘t go to our store again unless the sky is falling. If you need to


    find me, just call me or go to my house.


    “It‘s better for both you and Serenity if you stay far away from her.”


    Shawn‘s face turned pale. “Jas, you‘re my cousin, so why aren‘t you helping me? I‘ve had a crush on


    Serenity for many years and have such deep feelings for her. If you don‘t let me go to your store, you‘re


    stopping me from seeing Serenity.”
