Chapter 2623: My Eldest Son, Meticulous and Calculating

  • Next Chapter

Jasmine Yale nodded, "CEO Caddel has treated me well, never shortchanged me on salary and benefits. Following CEO Caddel, I’ve learned a lot too."

"He’s put quite a bit of effort into you."

"Maybe it’s because I’m willing to learn. CEO Caddel told me he likes people who are diligent and eager to learn. A person may not have talent, but they must work hard, that must be what CEO Caddel values in me." Jasmine looked at President Caddel, still not quite understanding the purpose of his questions.

"Ha." The man sneered, "How old are you?"

"Me?" Jasmine was surprised.

"Only girls seventeen or eighteen believe such nonsense. My son may lack many things, but he’s quite skilled at winning over women. He’s really got you wrapped around his finger."

"President Caddel, do you misunderstand CEO Caddel?" For some reason, Jasmine could always sense President Caddel’s disdain towards Will Caddel from his tone and attitude.

A father, no matter how much he dislikes his own son, shouldn’t behave like this, right?

Besides, his son is outstanding, can’t he see that?

"He’s really got you fooled. Your innocent nature, it’s really like hers, exactly like hers."

Her?

Jasmine was bewildered.

The things President Caddel was saying, she couldn’t understand a single word.

Whether it was because of the alcohol or not, her head started to throb mildly, and she didn’t want to delve deeper into President Caddel’s words.

"President Caddel, it’s getting late, and it’s still raining outside. I think I should go home, and you should rest early too."

"Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?" Suddenly, the man leaned forward, grabbed Jasmine’s arm, and with a forceful tug, pulled her into his embrace!

"President Caddel! Let go!" Jasmine was stunned, she never expected him to do such a thing!

No matter what, he is the chairman of ZR, her highest-ranking superior!

How could he lay hands on her!

The man had been drinking, clearly intoxicated, pressing one hand against Jasmine while the other gripped her chin. His deep gaze fell upon her face, carefully tracing her facial features.

"So... so alike..."

"President Caddel, let go of me!" she struggled, "You’re drunk, we can talk about this when you’re sober tomorrow."

"Will Caddel kept you by his side, wasn’t it to raise an army for a thousand days and use it at the right time, waiting to send you to me at this moment? What, didn’t he tell you beforehand? My eldest son, meticulous, deeply calculating, using every effort to snatch the shares from my hands, and I remained unmoved. Didn’t expect he’d still hold onto such a card, I admit, I lost to him, lost to your face."

The man reached out, his fingers touching Jasmine’s cheek.

A ring on his finger felt cold, and that chill made Jasmine involuntarily shiver.

She turned her head, struggling forcefully, "President Caddel, I don’t understand what you mean, I’m Jasmine Yale, not anyone else, you’ve got the wrong person."

"I know you’re called Jasmine Yale, I know you’re not her, but you look just like her, very much alike. The eyes, the mouth, everything’s alike." His gaze was somewhat mesmerized, deeply looking at Jasmine.

The lighting in the room was very ambiguous, casting a shallow yellow hue over Jasmine’s face.

Jasmine dared not meet his eyes.

"President Caddel, you’re drunk, you’ve mistaken me for someone else. No matter what, you’re my superior, I don’t want any negative incidents occurring because of alcohol."
