Chapter 691: Chapter 691



.

Armand looked nervously at the phone. He didn’t know when Boyce had come. He was startled when Boyce approached. His body leaned back and the small chair tipped, making him fall to the floor.

After a moment, Armand’s eyes widened, “Boyce, what are you doing?”

Boyce stood, looking down at him from above, “Have you done something wrong? How come you’re this scared?”.

“You’re the one who did something wrong!” Armand glared at him. He got up from the floor while patting his buttocks. He didn’t sit down again.

The chair was too short and it was not comfortable to sit in. To be precise, it was not suitable for tall people to sit in. Otherwise, they had to bend their legs and adopt an uncomfortable posture. Jasmine poured him a glass of water, “Drink it.”

Armand reached out to take the glass of water. He didn’t drink it immediately, but asked her, “If Boyce makes fun of you, you’ll be very angry, won’t you, and will you even ignore him?”

Jasmine blinked, “Is he the kind of guy who makes fun of people?”

Armand was speechless.

He thought that Jasmine was right too, since Boyce was very much a meathead and it was normal that he didn’t know how to joke around with girls.

“You teased your girlfriend and she ignores you?” Jasmine looked at Armand’s distressed look and guessed.

Armand laughed a little and explained, “We have a good relationship. I don’t think she has time to answer me now.”

He didn’t want others to know how inferior he was in this relationship.

“You seem very nervous to me,” Jasmine said sincerely. If she wasn’t looking at the phone too intently right now, she wouldn’t be freaking out about Boyce either.

“Nervous?” Armand tried to show a calm look, “I’m nervous?”

Armand, who forced himself to show a calm look, was sympathetic and amused.

Jasmine held back laughter. He shook his head and said, “You’re not nervous. You’re just a little anxious.”

He was anxious because his girlfriend didn’t respond to his message.

Armand laughed. He knew he probably couldn’t hide his emotions. He pointed to Boyce and Jasmine, “You have to treat me right today. I’m going out to make a call.”

With that, Armand left the house. He called Jasmine. It was very difficult for him to meet with her. Therefore, he felt nervous if Theresa’s behavior was a little abnormal, as he feared something bad would happen.

In fact, Theresa also deliberately did not choose to respond to his message. A customer had come into her store and she went to take care of him. Her phone remained in the office. After the customer had chosen the model, she only returned to the office after dismissing her customer. At that point, it was already the third call she had made. He picked up to answer the call.

“Theresa?”

Theresa frowned, “It’s me.”

“What have you been doing, why haven’t you answered my message? You make me feel very worried.” She said with some aggravation.

“I was attending to the customer – why were you continually calling me?”

“I was very nervous because you weren’t answering my call.” Armand smiled.

Jasmine, who was inside the house, could only see Armand’s expression. She couldn’t hear what he said, but it looked like his girlfriend had answered his call.

“Armand really likes his girlfriend, doesn’t he?” asked Jasmine to Boyce. Even though it was something unimportant, she could see how much Armand cared about her.

Boyce nodded, “Well, it’s not easy getting back together.”

Jasmine became interested in his story, “Tell me more.”

“They had been through a lot and it’s not easy to summarize their story. In short, they have gone through a lot of hardships to get back together. Besides, you’ll find it unbelievable if I tell you the whole story.” Boyce understood Armand’s mood.

Jasmine tilted her head to give Boyce a glance, “Do you have a lot of memories with him?”

Boyce nodded, “Yes, many.”

Jasmine looked down, “You go chat with your friend first. I’ll go get the food ready first.”

She was a little upset because she felt she hadn’t experienced much with Boyce.

At that moment, Armand was still talking on the phone. Perhaps because it was too hot outside, she ran to a car not too far away to sit inside. He closed the windows and turned on the air conditioner.

Boyce didn’t come over to disturb his conversation with Theresa, but followed Jasmine, “I’ll help you.”

Jasmine said, “No need.”

Boyce was not smart, but he could also tell that Jasmine was not happy, “What’s the matter with you, did I say something wrong again?”

“No.” Jasmine cocked her head and looked at him, “It’s just that I feel like I know very little about you.”

In fact, she wasn’t trying to explore Boyce’s past and privacy. She simply felt she knew too little about the people and things around him.

She liked this man, naturally she wanted to know more about him and his friends.

She didn’t want to feel like a stranger when she was with them.

Boyce told her directly and decently, “What do you want to know? I’ll tell you later.”

Jasmine smiled, “I’ll spend the rest of my life listening to your story. As long as you don’t leave me in the middle, I won’t stop listening to it.”

Armand, who had just entered the house after ending the call, clicked his tongue at Jasmine’s words as he entered the house. He couldn’t help but tease her, “You are worthy of being a graduate of a famous university since your words are so romantic.”

Jasmine was not embarrassed to hear his words and replied, “Your girlfriend is no longer angry with you?”

“Our relationship is very good. She won’t be angry with me.” This time, Armand became arrogant and acted as if he was superior, “I will be the one who will be angry with her.”

Jasmine didn’t know Armand well, but Boyce knew how many times she had experienced despair between them before Theresa promised to start over with him.

“May I convey to Theresa the words you just said?” said Boyce faintly, but Armand could sense that she was trying to warm him up.

Armand immediately straightened up, “Why are you so annoying, did you learn to complain about others, did you learn it from your little girlfriend?”

Boyce thought he had a big age difference with his girlfriend and didn’t know her mind well. That was why Armand kept calling Jasmine his little girlfriend. He felt uncomfortable as if he had done something wrong.

He gave a serious look to Armand, “Who’s older?”.

“You.” Armand knew what Boyce was referring to after hearing his words and said quietly, “You’re not married yet? Even if you get married already… I won’t call her that.”

She was too young.

“Then could you call Dolores that?”. questioned Boyce, as Dolores was much younger than Jasmine when she was Matthew’s wife.

Armand argued, “It’s not the same thing.”

Boyce asked, “What’s the difference then?”.

Armand scratched his head, “Do…. Dolo… Dolores and Matthew are married and, naturally, I called her that. Besides, Theresa has a good relationship with Dolores.”

Boyce doesn’t care what she thought: “You’re younger than me anyway. I don’t care about you now. In the future, you must call Jasmine properly when we get married.” Armand was speechless.

He blinked and looked at Jasmine. He was silent for a moment and said, “You can tell me after you get married.”

After finishing his words, he left the house, “I’m off to enjoy the beautiful surrounding area.”

Jasmine learned some facts from their conversation. She had also met Matthew before and had an impression of him. After all, he was a great boss.

The aura he displayed was naturally unforgettable.

“Your friend’s wife isn’t too old either?” asked Jasmine.

Boyce nodded sincerely, “Well, when we get back, I’ll introduce you to them.”

Jasmine nodded in agreement and asked, “Is Armand’s girlfriend old?”

She was relieved, as before this she had feared she would not be able to fit in with them. But now she knew that she was not too young among them, so she also felt very relieved. After all, her friend’s wife was not too old.

After being questioned by Jasmine, Boyce discovered something. It seemed that the girlfriends of the three of them were quite young.
