Chapter 45 How Can You Talk to Her Like That?
Even though Jazmine felt that his touch was a little strange at the moment, as long as the Gardner Group could be saved, she felt it would be fine.
The door was pushed open, and Owen respectfully said to Aaron.
“Mr. Aaron, do you have a minute? Mr. Giancarlo wants to meet you.”
Aaron’s smile seemed to be even stronger. He just nodded to Owen and said to Jazmine, “Go back to work. We’ll talk about the details when I’m sure about it.”
Jazmine nodded and left.
When she passed by Owen, she subconsciously looked at him.
Owen did not avoid her gaze. Jazmine saw a sneering look, and she froze for a moment.
The next moment, Owen had already lowered his eyes. She could not see anything.
After walking out, Jazmine found that she had missed lunch. She was not hungry at all, so she did not plan to eat. She sat in front of the computer in a daze, and could not stop thinking about the conference in the morning.
The employees of the company returned to the office one after another.
“Jazmine, are you not going out to eat?” someone asked.
Jazmine gave him a friendly smile. “No, I’m not hungry yet.”
At that time, Adrian suddenly came over and placed a box of lunch in front of her. He spoke very loudly, as if he was afraid that others would not know his purpose.
“Mr. Aaron ordered it for you. He told you to eat anyway, or you’d break down.”
After he finished speaking, he gave her a look of disgust.
A “thank you” stuck in Jazmine’s throat, and the fast–food box on the desk suddenly seemed annoying.
A sneer came from the side.
“Did you see that? What did I say just now?”
“When it comes to love, age is not an issue, right?”
Jazmine could understand what these people meant. Moreover, she had reason to believe that someone had instructed them to laugh at her so casually in the company.
Giancarlo’s cold face instantly appeared in her mind.
Jazmine clenched her fists. If she ran to confront Giancarlo, it would be of no benefit to her.
Thinking of this, Jazmine took a deep breath and directly took the lunch box to eat.
Several people saw Jazmine eating in complete disregard, but her expression was gloomy. She looked so weird. They looked at each other, said no more, and went back to their seats to rest.
Jazmine ate the whole box of food.
In an instant, her stomach felt uncomfortable, and she wanted to vomit.
But she just raised her head and straightened her back, not revealing any pain.
She finally got off work.
Jazmine had just walked out of the company when she saw that Aaron’s car was outside. It seemed to be waiting for her.
She thought of the rumors in the company and was ready to walk to the other side, but Aaron saw her and waved, calling her to come over.
Jazmine couldn’t ignore him.
She had to walk over.
Aaron got out of the car and opened the door for her. “I’ll send you back, and talk to you about the Gardner Group in the car.”
She could not refuse him when he said this.
The moment she got in the car, Giancarlo’s car dashed out from behind her in an instant.
Watching the car disappear in a flash, Jazmine suddenly had a bad feeling.
“Jazmine?”
Jazmine quickly looked at Aaron and smiled at him. “Yes, Aaron?”
“What are you thinking about? You are so absorbed. I have called you several times.”
Jazmine hurriedly shook her head.
Along the way, Aaron drove very slowly. He could have returned to the Tapia’s place in twenty minutes, but it took him half an hour that day.

“Mr. Aaron, you’re back.
“Ms. Gardner, you’re back.”
Aaron looked around, still kept smiling. He did not see the person he was looking for. While changing his shoes, he asked the servant, “Where is Giancarlo?”
“He is upstairs with Ms. Larsen. She hasn’t been feeling well all day.”
The servant kept her head down as she replied.
Jazmine paused for a moment when she changed her shoes. After she returned to normal, she excused herself to wash up and return to her room.
A while later, the servant came to call her for dinner.
Jazmine went downstairs and saw that the three people were already sitting at the table, waiting for her.
“Jazmine, did you get tired at the office? You don’t look too good. If you feel uncomfortable, don’t force yourself. Just go upstairs and ask the servants to send you food,” Aaron spoke with concern.
In the past, this kind of concern would make Jazmine feel moved, but now, she just felt heavy.
Jazmine hurriedly said, “No need, I’m fine. Let’s eat.”
“Ms. Gardner, I’m really sorry about what happened today. I spent the day at home reflecting and still felt like I had to apologize to you. If you don’t forgive me, I, I don’t know what to do, and I’ll be very sad.”
Perhaps it was because she had eaten too much at noon, Jazmine only felt her stomach churn.
She endured her disgust and waved at Yoselin. “It’s fine, I forgot about it.”
Giancarlo suddenly put down the utensils in his hand. The sound of the utensils hitting the table made
Jazmine’s eyes twitch.
What he said next made Jazmine feel particularly embarrassed.
“Jazmine, where do you get this attitude? Yoselin apologized to you. How can you talk to her like that?”
How can I talk to her like what? Jazmine thought.
Thinking about the conference in the morning and how the follow–up of the Gardner Group was controlled
by this man, Jazmine lowered her eyes and covered her sneer. Then she put on a sincere face.
“Yoselin, I accept your apology. So, may I eat now?”
There was still a hint of resentment that could not be suppressed.
Yoselin was so proud in her heart that she was about to laugh wildly, but her face was still so pitiful that she
almost cried. “Giancarlo, even if Ms. Gardner doesn’t forgive me, I deserve it. If it wasn’t for me… I’m sorry,
Ms. Gardner. Giancarlo and I truly love each other. Please don’t be angry, okay?”
Jazmine stared at Yoselin shockingly.
This woman is simply shameless to the extreme, she thought.
She pinched her thigh hard and forced herself not to curse.
However, at that time, Giancarlo gave her a deadly strike. “Yoselin, no need to beg her.”
Yoselin lowered her head and said in a very small voice, “But she is your wife. I was trying to steal you from
her, and she was right when she said I was a mistress. Giancarlo, if I didn’t love you too much, I…..”
“That’s enough.” Giancarlo interrupted her.
His voice was a little louder.
When he found that his loud voice scared Yoselin. He said again, “Be good and eat.”
Jazmine stood up like a shot. “You people take your time. I’ll leave and get out of your way now.”
After saying that, she ignored Aaron’s shouts and went upstairs.
