Outside, it was still raining, and the sky had turned completely dark.
Jasmine Yale opened her umbrella, calmly looking at the road ahead.
The wind blew, and a leaf fell at her feet, making a gentle swirl before brushing the ground and flying away. The road at night was very quiet, and the sound of branches swaying "swish, swish" could be heard everywhere.
Raindrops fell on the umbrella, "drip, drip," like ti passing through a deserted wilderness, ethereal and silent.
Jasmine Yale went ho.
In the taxi, she received another call from Kade Yuvan.
"Jasmine, did you co by? The CEO’s office is a ss; I wanted to clean it up, but the CEO won’t let in," Kade Yuvan was quite anxious.
"Just follow his wishes."
"The CEO’s injuries are really severe, that deputy president was heavy-handed, and I’m not sure what grudge he holds against the CEO." Kade Yuvan had so understanding, it was just... rivals in love, especially envious.
But what surprised him was that the CEO actually couldn’t beat that man.
The deputy president looked gentle and refined, elegant and warm, yet the CEO was not his match?
"Take him to the hospital."
"I can’t, the CEO won’t let in at all, Jasmine, please co, try to persuade him, the CEO listens to you."
"Assistant Yuvan, don’t call about his matters in the future."
"Ah?"
"I’m about to have a baby, it’s inconvenient to run back and forth, and I don’t want anything to go wrong with the child."
"Alright then," Kade Yuvan said helplessly, "You focus on your pregnancy, I’ll handle the company’s matters."
"Thank you."
Hanging up the phone, Jasmine Yale leaned against the window, looking at the city center in the rain. The lights were brilliant everywhere, and the streets were bustling with people, lively and noisy.
The corners of Jasmine Yale’s lips lifted into a gentle curve, she wiped the fog on the glass with her hand for a clearer view.
Despite needing to expend more energy and ti after arriving in Cakago, she still liked a simple life.
She liked the bustling crowd and hoped every day could be filled with happiness.
Perhaps... once the baby was born, life would be better.
She touched her belly, her eyes filled with a radiant glow.
This baby was her greatest hope and reliance.
Sotis, she really resented Sylvan Cheney, she’d had two children with him, yet he never accompanied her through an entire pregnancy.
This ti was better, but thinking back six years ago, it was truly a ti she didn’t want to rember.
Back then, she was hiding and suffering from cold gazes, while he remained indifferent in the US.
Jasmine Yale sighed.
Let it go, it’s all in the past...
The child back then was long gone.
Raindrops andered down the window, zigzagging and blurring her vision.
...
Two days later.
Yukon Carbon, due to work, hurriedly left Cakago and returned to Old York.
Jasmine Yale went to the hospital alone for prenatal check-up.
She had gone for all the check-ups alone recently, there wasn’t much, just going through the procedures.
The sky had cleared up, and after an autumn rain, the autumn flavor was more intense.
After the check-up, she queued up at the pharmacy to buy so supplents.
She accidentally dropped the slip of paper in her hand.
A dad waiting in line helped pick it up for her, and Jasmine Yale thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you."
"You’re welco, it’s inconvenient for pregnant won, you should co to the hospital with family."
"My husband accompanied here, he just stepped out for a bit," Jasmine Yale said with a smile.
"Like this, like this, you go ahead," the man said, letting Jasmine Yale go before him.
"Thank you," Jasmine Yale said gratefully.
