Jasmine ran to the hostel. Her friends were all stayed in the hostel as they did not have class today. When they saw her, they asked, “Jasmine, are you doing a part-time job? What are you doing?”
They asked this as she always went out when she did not have class. They thought she was doing a part-time job.
Jasmine shook her head. She pulled her luggage from the bottom of her bed. She put the marriage license together with her clothes.
Her friend asked, “Jasmine, what are you looking for?”
Jasmine paused before saying, “A marriage license.”
She did not want to hide the truth anymore. Otherwise, they would say that she had an illegal relationship with Boyce.
Her friend was shocked, “You, you had married?”
‘It’s amazing.’
“You’re still a university student.”
Soon, Jasmine found the red book. She looked at her friend. “Is there any law stating that a university student can’t get married?”
Jasmine asked rhetorically.
Her friend was stunned, ‘There is no law stating that a university student can’t get married. As long as one is not underage, he or she can get married.’
“You get married before you graduate, won’t you feel that it’s a hurry?”
Jasmine was in a hurry. She did not say anything. She ran out quickly.
Her friend shouted at the back, “Invite us to your wedding feast in the future.”
Jasmine turned around her head and said yes while she was running.
She was puzzled after she left the school. She did not know where she should go and whom she should talk to.
She had evidence showing that she did not have an illegal relationship with Boyce. They were a legal couple. However, who should she explain to?
She stood by the roadside and asked herself to stay calm, ‘Calm down. Calm down. I need to stay calm to think of a solution.’
She told it to herself again and again.
Suddenly, she figured out a solution, ‘Armand is a lawyer. He must know everything.’
She immediately called a taxi to go to find Armand.
Armand was not feeling well these few days as he still did not persuade Elizabeth successfully to accept his proposal.
After he walked out of his law firm, he walked to his car. When he was about to open the door and go to the hospital, Jasmine arrived.
She shouted out to Armand.
Armand turned his head around. After Jasmine paid the money to the driver, she ran towards Armand.
“Why are you here?” Armand was shocked. He did not expect Jasmine to look for him.
“You are having problem with Boyce? It’s useless to look for me to solve it. My life is a mess.”
Jasmine shook her head, “No, no, he’s in trouble. He’s reported by one anonymous person. In the afternoon, two men went to his house and took him away for investigation.”
“Get reported?” Armand opened his eyes widely.
Jasmine nodded.
“What do they report him for?” Armand asked.
“They said that he has a mistress.” Jasmine was nervous. She did not care about anything other than to save Boyce.
Armand was speechless.
