“Jared, is it that urgent? You haven’t had lunch yet, right? Should we have lunch first?”
Zeke had no idea that Jared would rush here without having lunch.
“I don't have much time to spare. Let's go now.”
Jared pulled Zeke up and dragged him to the door.
They had just stepped out of the door when they bumped into Yasmin and Frida. Both ladies froze in shock at the sight of Jared.
They hadn’t met Jared in a while. Now that Jared was back in Yeringham without warning, Yasmin felt a tumult of emotions brewing within her heart, which she thought had calmed down.
“Jared, when did you get here?
Where's Josephine?” Frida asked happily.
“She isn't here. I'm here for Zeke,” Jared answered.
He then pulled Zeke away. There was no time for him to talk to the ladies.
Yasmin parted her lips as Jared walked past her, but nothing came out of her mouth.
“Yasmin, have lunch with Frida. Don't wait for me. I'll be back after we take care of our business,” Zeke told her.
Yasmin didn't say anything as she watched Jared get into the car. She remained rooted to the spot even after the car had disappeared from sight.
Back in the Whitaker residence in Summerbank, Yasmin had been frightened out of her wits and had assumed that she would die there. Despair was coursing through her veins when Jared showed up to save her, and she'd never forget the sight.
“Yas, you and Jared aren't meant to be.
Stop thinking about him. Besides, he's Josephine's boyfriend. You can't possibly snatch him from Josephine, right?” Frida reminded.
