Let's Get Married novel Chapter 733

Pehry lowers his head to look at the small hand on his hand. She presses hard, but it's quite easy for him to shake it off as long as he wants to.

However, Pehry doesn't do it. He likes the warmth of her hand. He raises his eyebrows and looks at her, "Let go."

"No." Jasmine has never retorted him so boldly. Thinking of what Karl said, she doesn't retreat at all, "I know you are very angry about what happened last night, but you misunderstood me. I did not..."

"You don't need to explain." Pehry interrupts her. As he remembers their conversation in the tea room last night, he is even more annoyed. He withdraws his hand and says, "I won’t listen to someone who trades affections."

"I didn't trade..." Jasmine wants to explain. But he has turned around and turned the loudspeaker to the loudest. Her voice is overwhelmed by the music and fades in the laughter of the crowd.

The woman sitting beside Pehry has heard what they said. She assumes that Jasmine is just someone unimportant. Looking at her plain clothes, the woman deliberately spills some wine on Jasmine's shoes from the glass in her hand.

Jasmine hurriedly dodges, but it is too late. The white canvas shoes are soaked.

"Ouch. I'm so sorry." The woman says to her casually, her face filled with indifference.

She turns to look at Pehry and says softly, "Mr. Pehry, you should let the child go back to change her shoes."

Pehry glances at her wet shoes and frowns slightly, but he doesn't say anything. He just reaches out again to take the wine glass on the table.

Seeing that he still wants to drink, Jasmine is furious. She immediately picks up the glass. She doesn't know what to do with it and could only start to drink it. She has never drunk before, but now she is so angry that she gulps a half glass of whisky.

Pehry is not used to mix alcohol with soft drinks, so the glass of whiskey is pure and not watered at all.

A man with a long drinking history needs a good capacity to gulp it down, not to mention Jasmine.

Jasmine's actions draw the attention of the crowd again. After Pehry gives her a cold face, everyone think that this little girl would leave in disappointment. Unexpectedly, she is so bold that she takes Pehry's wine and drinks it up...

They don't know whether they should admire her courage or worry about her situation now.

Some men feel sympathy for her, while others get evil intentions. Seeing that she coughs after a glass of wine, a man among the crowd, Robert, knows that this girl doesn't go often to clubs and is not good at drinking.

He looks up and down at Jasmine. She is pretty although she’s in plain clothes. She looks childish but has a distinctly outlined face. And her skin is especially fair, typical for a young woman. Robert can't help but wondering whether other parts of her body are also so tender...

Robert is not Pehry's friend. He comes to this party today by accident. Mr. Pehry's temperament has changed a lot recently. He won't refuse anyone who wants to drink here. Robert has spent a lot of money in the club today and thus got the chance to come here.

Robert doesn't know about Pehry's temperament. He assumes that Pehry doesn't like Jasmine, so he stands up and walks to the girl. He stretches out to hold her in his arms.

Jasmine's shoulders ache due to his strength.

Jasmine subconsciously resists him. She struggles but fails to break free. She panics, no longer arrogant like when she drank the whisky.

"You... What are you doing..."

"Little girl, do you know how strong the wine is?" Robert deliberately lowers his voice.
