Let's Get Married Chapter 789: Scandal Breaks Out

If Bridget has said it earlier, Jasmine would definitely contradict her in a hundred ways. But today, after
seeing that jarring news, she has nothing to say.

"You don't fit to each other. I know you're unconvinced. You think you can become better through efforts
and deserve to be his companion sooner or later, right?" Every word Bridget says seems to shake her
heart. "No. They don't need you to be excellent. Stop it, for yourself."

Hearing that, Jasmine would rather Bridget call and scold her.

These words are like strong acids, slowly disintegrating the power that is corroding her. Perhaps in the
eyes of others, her self-righteous persistence and courageous choice are ignorant and reckless.

She is only twenty years old and is not strong enough to endure it all. All her power comes from
Pehry's persistence and love for her.

Now that she sees him so close to another woman, her power instantly disappears. She doesn't know
how to carry on.

Jasmine is very scared and afraid of losing this relationship. She is afraid that he would really change
his mind and that Bridget's words would one day become reality.

Therefore, she does not refute, as if she is escaping something. She quickly hangs up the phone after
a few words.

Bridget's voice fades away, but Jasmine cannot calm down. Instead, she becomes even more terrified
and helpless.

She used to swear to Bridget that Pehry is pretty nice and even contradict her. But after seeing the hot
news and the ambiguous photos on the web page, Jasmine is really a little afraid.



She is afraid that all her persistence would end up failing her and it's just her wishful thinking.

Jasmine can only try to console herself that she shouldn't panic before hearing his explanation with her
own ears.

She didn't trust him last time. This time, no matter how pressured she is, Jasmine plans to wait for his
explanation.

She waits from afternoon until late at night.

In the dormitory, she lies on the bed and looks at the moon hanging high outside the window. The
bright moonlight falls on the ground. It is almost dawn, when everyone else is sleeping soundly except
her.

It's already six hours since the press release, but she hasn't received any phone calls or text messages
from Pehry.

Is he still busy?

Even she herself does not seem to be convinced by such a reason. She knows very well that Pehry
would definitely be notified as soon as the news is released. Then, why she doesn't hear from him till
now?

Is he waiting for her to contact him?

Jasmine closes her eyes and her heart is in a mess. Her chest is like a huge container, sealing all her
emotions, but unable to digest them. The swelling makes her sick.

Is it that hard to call her and explain everything? Even if he is busy, five minutes is enough, right?

Unless he doesn't want to explain it to her at all.



Just as the thought occurs to her, the phone under the pillow suddenly vibrates. She hurriedly picks it
up and finds it is Pehry.

Jasmine pulls her coat over and slips out of the dormitory. To avoid being caught by the supervisor, she
opens the corridor windows as wide as possible and keeps her voice as low as possible.

"Hello?" She answered the phone and said softly.

Pehry is still in the Red Club. This is his first time coming to the Red Club since he has taken over the
family business. But he feels completely different now.

Hearing her tender voice, he instantly feels relieved and says, "Still awake?"

Jasmine swallows her saliva, afraid that he would find something wrong. She calms herself down and
says, "Yes, I'm just chatting with my roommate."

Actually, she is awake because of the troublesome scandal.

Pehry surely knows the reason why she hasn't slept, but he doesn't mention it. He changes the topic
and asks, "Did you see the news?"

Jasmine is a little surprised that he should ask. Perhaps because she has been looking at the photos
for too long, the scene of the two walking together arm in arm immediately appears in front of her eyes.

She is a little chocked up. She controls herself and says, "I saw it."

Her voice is small, with grievance and disappointment.

Pehry is very nervous. After the press release, he has been wondering when to explain it to her.

Thinking of her previous reaction and attitude, he decides to wait for her call. But he doesn't hear from
her till midnight.



Finally, Pehry can't help but call her.

He does struggle in his mind. He just can't explain everything to her clearly. It is better not to say
anything if he can only tell half the story. So he has to give a seemingly reasonable reason.

After careful consideration, Pehry finally comes up with an excuse that doesn't sound so awkward. "Let
me explain to you about the news. That photo was taken when I was socializing. There's nothing
between me and that woman."

Jasmine bites her lips and remains silent for a while. She asks softly, "And then? Will you two show up
in the same occasion again?"

She has asked the key question. Pehry sighs deeply, "Yes. I need her to cover me."

"Cover you?"

"Mr. Alfred is dissatisfied with you. I don't want him to focus his eyes on you." Pehry does not tell her
everything. If Jasmine knows what has happened to him recently, she would definitely blame herself.
That is not what he wants to see.

But hearing that, Jasmine still can't hide her disappointment and complex emotions. "You mean ... you
want to use her to distract attention?"

"Yes."

"But..." Jasmine hesitates for a while and asks, "Would Mr. Alfred believe it?"

"Believe it or not, he won't be focusing on you anymore with someone else in front of his eyes."

Hearing that, Jasmine feels bad. Thinking about the future, she feels an unprecedented pressure and
confusion. "Pehry, will your family never accept me?"



It is fine to call her childish or naive. But ever since she decides to begin a relationship with him, she
has never thought of retreating halfway.

She wishes to maintain a good relationship for the rest of her life. She doesn't want to leave Pehry, at
least till now.

She does not want temporary sweetness. But she wants to hold the man's hand for long.

Obviously, Pehry knows what she means, but he doesn't know how to answer for a moment.
