Chapter 1655

“Are you going hto get ready?” After pouring her heart out, Jasmine asked her best friend.

Serenity responded, “I’ll send Sonny hfirst. He said he missedafter his class ended, so Jim sent him over.”

She had to accompany her husband to attend the charity gala at night, so it was inconvenient for her to bring Sonny along.

“Hurry up and leave. I’ll be here to watch the store. It’s been a long tsince I last sat here. I wonder if those little monkeys miss me.” Jasmine referred to students as little monkeys.

“Should I inform Mr. Bucham that you’re here watching the store?”

Jasmine said, “No need. He knows about it. Look at that row of bodyguards. Even if I don’t tell him, won’t they do it? Josh won’t stopfrom watching the store. All I do is use the cash register.”

Serenity laughed. “Fine. You stay here and watch the store. I’ll send Sonny back.”

“Go ahead.”

Serenity held her nephew and left the bookstore.

After Serenity left, Jasmine immediately headed to the kitchen to look for ice cream in the fridge, but to no avail.

She mumbled with disappointment, “The weather has been so hot, yet Seren doesn’t keep any ice cream in the fridge.”

It was impossible for her to eat ice cream in the Buchams‘ residence. Everyone would forbid her from eating ice cream because it was cold.

Even Jasmine’s mother reminded her not to eat too much ice cream to cool her body. It would be best not to eat it at all.

Jasmine’s mother knew her best. Every year during the summertime, Jasmine would eat ice cream a few times a day when the weather was scorching hot.

After searching the fridge for ice cream, she could not find any drinks. There were only vegetables and fruit.

Disappointed, Jasmine shut the fridge door. Originally, she cto the store with the intention to satisfy her cravings, but she ended up finding nothing in the fridge.

She turned around and walked out of the kitchen. She made her way to the counter to take a seat. After sthought, she left the counter and walked outside.

The minute the bodyguards saw her coming out, all of them fixed their eyes on her.

“Don’t stand here. It’s hot. Find a shady spot to keep cool. You’ll catch the students‘ eye if you keep standing here. This will affect the business of the bookstore when school’s out.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

At the sight of a row of tall and sturdy bodyguards with fierce expressions, the students would not dare enter the bookstore as they might assthat the bodyguards were gangsters.

Previously, when Zachary stood in the store with a solemn expression, the students were so frightened that they hurried away.

The bodyguards that Josh chose for Jasmine were sturdy and ferocious–looking. They were all dressed in black, which was quite frightening.

“Missus, we’re not afraid of heat. We can just sit at the entrance of the store,” a bodyguard replied to Jasmine on behalf of everyone.

After keeping quiet for a while, Jasmine asked, “Don’t you find it hot? It’s over ninety degrees during the day. Don’t you want to have sice cream on such a hot day?”

The bodyguards were in silence.

“Boris.”

Jasmine called out one of the bodyguards‘ names

“Yes, Missus?” Boris responded politely.

Jasmine said, “Wait a moment. I’m going to the store to get something.”

She turned around and went into the store. She took out two hundred dollars from her purse and walked out. When she handed the cash to Boris, Boris looked at her in bewilderment.

“Lettreat you to sice cream on such a hot day. Take this money and buy sice cream from Perry’s shop. He sells a variety of ice cream. The expensive ice cream is tastier. You should eat the tastiest one.”

Worried that the bodyguards did not dare spend too much money, Jasmine deliberately emphasized the last two sentences.

“Missus, you don’t need to treat us. We’ll get it on our own if we feel like eating.”

“Take the cash and buy sice cream now. Everyone gets one.”

Again, Jasmine stressed that everyone would get ice cream. She supposed that the bodyguards would get her one.

Boris hesitated for a while and exchanged glances with his colleagues before taking Jasmine’s money.
