Pehry has been in a relationship with many women. So, he just uses the term "girlfriend" to call the
woman who is with him. It isn't special to him at all.
However, at the thought of Jasmine being his girlfriend, he feels somewhat nervous, his heart beating
fast.
Stop!
Don't spark!
Pehry suddenly takes a step back and turns around. He has no idea why he feels so.
Jasmine is even more confused, but she hears his last sentence.
He wants her to be his girlfriend.
Although this word is just common for Pehry, it's the first time for Jasmine to hear that.
She has never been anyone's girlfriend, nor does she want to be.
For a few minutes, she is intimidated by his mettle, but very quickly, she regains her senses and asks
him seriously, "Mr. Pehry, do you know what girlfriend means?"
Pehry stops thinking about the complicated emotion. And his heart continues to burn with passionate
fire. He smirks and says nastily, "Jasmine, you haven't even been in love. Who are you to argue with
me? When I was dating someone, you were still a stupid child."
"..." Jasmine ignores those harsh words and tries to stay calm. "I've never been in love, but that doesn't
mean I don't know what love is. I know you have dated many women, but you are still alone. What I
want is simple. I hope that my boyfriend will always there for me. So will I for him. Mr. Pehry, it's
obvious that we have different opinions about this. You just want more women. So, I'm sorry. I can't be
with you."
Pehry sneers, "I didn't expect you to be so responsible."
Jasmine doesn't compromise at all. "We adults should be responsible for our choices."
"How stubborn you are! When you fall in love, you will know love doesn't make sense. The proof is in
the pudding."
Jasmine looks at him without saying anything.
Pehry also looks at her bright big eyes. From the beginning, he knows that this girl is different from
other women, but he hasn't expected her to be so different.
The tricks he has played on the other women are useless on her. She is determined to refuse him, but
the more he sees her digging in her heels, the more he desires to get her.
At the thought of the day when Jasmine becomes attentive and loving and relies much on him, Pehry
feels delighted.
There is a special aura around them two. But it is all from Pehry, to be precise.
Even though Jasmine has tried hard to look more powerful, she is still no match for him.
Everyone feels invisible when they are with Pehry. After all, he is too powerful and attractive.
But Jasmine doesn't care about that since she just wants to make their relationship clear.
After a moment of silence, Pehry returns to her side. He is much taller, so she looks quite petite in
comparison.
Pehry's smile fades a little. Jasmine is surprised to recognize sincerity from his eyes. "Jasmine, do you
really want to throw me over?"
"..."
His sudden question catches Jasmine off guard.
There is no need to ask. Isn't the answer obvious?
Jasmine doesn't answer, so Pehry thinks she must have acquiesced it. "Here is a way for you. Be my
girlfriend. I promise I won't touch you. We'll get along for a month. If you still don't want to be with me
by then, I won't bother you anymore."
Jasmine freezes as she blinks with watery eyes. "You, what do you think love is? It isn't a deal..."
"But both you and I won't compromise. This is the best choice, isn't it?"
Jasmine is lost for words. It's best if he gives up. How does it end up like this...?
"How is it?" Noticing that she doesn't say anything, Pehry knows that she is confused, but he has to
make her more confused. "You want all this over, right? I'm giving you a chance, otherwise we'll
continue hanging out here. Anyway, I won't give up."
Jasmine finally realizes that his words make no sense. She stares at him with her eyes wide open.
"You... Can't you get someone else to do it?"
Pehry puts his hand on his chest. "How can you ask me to go to someone else? You hurt me."
"..."
Noticing that she falls silent again, Pehry stops talking and continues to walk forward. "Forget it if you
don't want to. It's the same for me if we continue to get along like this..."
Jasmine is most afraid of being with Pehry like today. She hurries to catch Pehry by the sleeve but
soon let go. She says anxiously, "You... Can you give me a second?"
"No." Pehry refuses very quickly. "Just tell me if you agree. There's nothing to figure at this point."
"But I can't make a hasty decision on such an important matter."
Noticing she is embarrassed, Pehry thinks she is very cute. His heart has softened, but he still puts on
a cold look as he shrugs his shoulders. "It's fine. Since you cannot decide, we will be the same as
before."
It seems that they don't speak the same language. Jasmine really wants to leave, but at the thought of
his words, she doesn't dare.
She is worried about being entangled with Pehry too much. After all, they come from different worlds.
Jasmine feels very insecure when interacting with such a person.
But if she doesn't agree, she is afraid that he will continue to bother her.
After all, a month will pass very quickly.
She is very sure that she won't have feelings for Pehry. After this month, there's nothing between them
anymore.
When it flashes through Jasmine's mind, the answer has come to her.
When she looks up again, she has already changed her mind. "What if you go back on your word?"
"I never go back on my word." Pehry is afraid that she doesn't believe him, so he continues, "If you
don't believe me, I can ask the lawyer to give you a legal statement. Everything is settled,
right?"
