Chapter 884
Mrs. Sox would not approve if Shawn continued to dwell on Serenity.
What was the meaning of pestering a married woman?
“Oh, that reminds me. Your aunt found another nice man for you. You can meet the guy at tonight’s dinner. Your aunt said the guy doesn’t come from a wealthy family. She gave up on that criteria since you hate it so much.”
Truth be told, Mrs. Lowe knew her niece had kissed goodbye the notion of marrying a rich husband the moment Jasmine lay herself down on the floor at Mrs. Dawson’s birthday party. That was when Mrs. Lowe called it quits on playing the matchmaker.
After staying out of her niece’s business for a while, Mrs. Lowe was once again back to find a man for her niece.
Jasmine was twenty-six and single with no boyfriend in sight. Aunt Rachel was nervous for her niece who was not getting any younger.
The anxiousness was getting to Mrs. Sox too. The two ladies would always think about setting Jasmine up on dates whenever they got together.
“Your aunt said you’re meeting an executive working in their company. He’s been. with the company for many years, so your uncle knows him well. He had a girlfriend of eight years, but they split three months ago.
“Your uncle wanted to pair you two up.”
Jasmine replied, slightly baffled, “He broke up with a girlfriend of eight years. What’s the reason for the breakup?”
“Apparently, the girl wanted to end the relationship. I think she’s marrying someone else. Anyway, they are not together anymore.”
Jasmine believed the woman did not see the relationship going anywhere after waiting for eight years. That must be the last straw for her to marry someone else.
“Mom, I don’t want to go on a blind date.”
Jasmine refused to meet with her date.
The man was heartless to leave a woman hanging for eight years until she crestfallenly married another. Jasmine had a low opinion of the man before they
even met.
Rising to his feet, Josh propped his elbows on the table and leaned forward to ask Mrs. Sox over the phone, “Mrs. Sox, do I need to bring anything to the dinner? What do Mr. and Mrs. Lowe like? I should bring a gift.”
Jasmine wanted to cover Josh’s mouth, but it was too late.
Mrs. Sox heard everything on the other end.
“You sound familiar, boy. Jasmine, give the phone to him. I want to talk to him.”
Jasmine shot Josh a dirty look before reluctantly handing the phone to him.
Josh took the phone and introduced himself to Mrs. Sox with a smile. “Mrs. Sox, I’m Josh. You met me before.”
“Oh, Josh. No wonder your voice is so familiar. Are you pretending to be Jasmine’s date?”
Mrs. Sox knew Josh got along with her son. Josh left quite an impression on Mrs. Sox as her son would not stop talking about how great Josh was.
