Snare of Love novel Chapter 497

It would be just fine if Armand hadn’t said that. But the mid-aged man walked even faster and wiped his forehead from time to time after he heard what Armand said. He seemed to be scared by Armand.

“Do you know her, Boyce?” The manager of the restaurant asked Boyce because he saw Boyce have a chat with Jasmine just now, they obviously knew each other.

But how Boyce would know a poor college student with his background?

Boyce hummed. He knew the manager knew who he was and the relationship between him and Matthew. If he said something for the student, the manager would definitely treat her well.

“Please do take care of her, you know she just started working and has no much idea about how the society is like .”

The manager smiled, “Of course, as you already said that. I know what to do.”

After a small chat with the manager, Boyce went back to the seat. Armand laughed at Boyce with a teasing expression. How lovely a heroic rescue story was! It was really rare to see. But how come he was careless to the young lady?

Armand felt anxious about Boyce. By what time would he know how to win a woman’s heart? When would he be able to get married? He even came back to have dinner instead of comforting that beauty!

This was such a fantastic chance to ‘hook’ her. It was easy for a student who just started working to get touched if he knew how to show off in front of her.

This dummy just came back without doing anything!

Jasmine staring at Boyce’s back and then slowly lowered her sight.She didn’t expect to meet him here, not to mention that he could save her again.

The manager patting Jasmine’s shoulder to encourage her, “Do your best. I thought you had a poor background, but I didn’t expect you knew him. Do you know what does he do?”

Jasmine nodded without hiding anything. When they met last time, it was him who sent her the money which her money gave her. She remembered him was an Criminal Police Captain from his introduction, which made her admire him.

She knew she probably misunderstood him last time as he was indifferent to her today.

The manger pointed a mansion across the street, “He is quite close to the CEO of WY Group, and you met him before?”

Jasmine thought maybe she did. There were three men in the private room that day, now there were only two of them here. But the manager asked if she knew Mr. Nelson. Maybe the one who was not here was the CEO of WY Group.

“I may have met him before.” Jasmine answered honestly.

The manager took a glance at Jasmine meaningfully, she was young and pretty, “From what I know, they are all singles.”

What the manager said seemed like implying that no matter who she could hook with, it would a wining situation for her. They were all rich, powerful and handsome.

It was not easy finding people like that, she would have chose them if she wasn’t married.

It was too late for a person like her age and appearance.

Jasmine was still innocent and didn’t interpret her deep meaning, she could only considered it as gossiping.

“Go clean the floor. Be extra careful and smart next time.” The manager reminded Jasmine after taking a peak of where Armand and Boyce sat at.

Jasmine nodded her head, “Yes will do, it won’t happen again, I promise.”

Then she took the mop and duster cloth to wipe off all the glasses and damp.

“Don’t you have any sympathy?” Armand looked at Jasmine’s thin figure squatting there cleaning and asked Boyce.

“Psycho.” Boyce didn’t even look at that side. He truly had no idea about her even though he was really trying to find a wife. But he knew it wouldn’t be her because she was too young, and he was over 12 years old than her. He would feel guilty if he did so.

He thought it was immoral to find a girlfriend at her age.

What if people misunderstood she was his daughter? Wasn’t it too embarrassed?

Armand was quite annoyed at him. He finally decided to do something to rescue his best friend from life of a bachelor. So he stood up from his seat and took a glance at Boyce, “You are so lucky to have such a good friend like me, otherwise you will be a single forever.”

“What are you doing?” Boyce thought he was going to do something bad.

He was so upset.

Armand smirked, “Look at you! Of course I am helping you to get a wife.”

“Ar…”

Boyce wanted to stop him, but Armand, instead, was determined and walked towards Jasmine. He lowered down to help pick up all the glass on the floor while saying, “Do you remember me? We met each other in the private room.”

Jasmine looked at him quickly, said, “Yes.”

“It was my best friend who solved your problem just now. May I know how you know each other?”

Jasmine didn’t want to hide anything from him but tell everything about how they met at the first place.

“Oh alright.” Armand smiled, “You know sometimes you have to go easy on him, if he did something wrong, please no not blame him. You do know his job right?”

“Yes.” Jasmine admitted. She admired policeman a lot. Her mom suffered a lot because her dad. She knew everything about it. So she trusted police officers unconditionally and felt like they were all righteous.

Armand got closer to her and lowered his voice, “Tell you a secret. He is just a dummy who knows nothing about love. Do you believe he has never been into any relationship?”

Jasmine shook her head and thought he must be really someone who didn’t know what love was.

“He is a weirdo, isn’t he?”

“Yeah, a bit.” Jasmine answered honestly.

“But please look down upon him. He is just so innocent and pure, it’s are to see someone like him now.”

Jasmine wanted to giggle. ‘Innocent’? It was funny to use the word on a man in his thirties.

Seeing those two people were having a nice chat made Boyce feel headache. He even wanted to kick Armand’s ass when Jasmine giggled by something Armand said. Armand suffered a lot because of Theresa a while ago, but now he was hooking with a young lady?

And she was so young!

Did he feel sorry?

“I know you are still studying. You probably know many girls, if you don’t mind, try to introduce some girl to my friend over there. You know, keep it a secret please, otherwise he would be embarrassed.”

The delight expression slowly disappeared on Jasmine’s face. She felt weird when she heard Armand wanted her to find a girlfriend for Boyce. “A college student? That’s too young for him.”

“I mean they are about to graduate. Then the age gap would be 7-9 years, that’s acceptable! You know there are no women in his social circle, I used to doubt that he is a gay.” Armand patted on Jasmine’s shoulder, “Please do me this favor. I couldn’t see my friend being single for his whole life.”

Jasmine lowered her head and said ok.

“That’s enough.” Boyce paid the bill and carried the take away breakfast. He scolded Armand coldly. This guy was so shameless and he was so eager to hook girls whenever there was a chance. He was going to tell Theresa to dump him for sure

Armand cleared his throat and stood up. He stared at Boyce who looked gloomy, “Why you are upset? Are you jealous because we had a good conversation?”

Jasmine stopped mopping the floor unconsciously and she was even expecting the answer from Boyce.

Boyce said nothing but turned around and walked away. Armand chased him and held his neck, “Are you mad at me?”

Boyce said nothing.

“You don’t like her but I do. I think I have the right to chase her.”

Boyce got rid of him, “Please don’t be that shameless.”

Armand still kept smiling and went back to the company with him.

They met Abbott when they just got off the elevator, Boyce asked him, “Charles left yet?”

Abbott answered, “Not yet, he’s in Mr. Nelson’s office.”

Charles was in the president’s office a long time ago but Matthew didn’t mean to talk to him.

Charles sighed, seemed like he felt pitiful, “I don’t understand why Dolores fell in love with you who is so petty?”
