Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother
Chapter 447

"I got it. Don't worry about my safety. Andrew is here, too. He'll protect us. By the way, Colin, are you still in the hospital?"

It was only fair for me to ask about him after he'd asked about me. Otherwise, I would have come off as rude.

Colin didn't hide it from me. "Yes, her surgery was quite successful. It's difficult to predict how her recovery will go. The director stated that even if she could recover, the rehabilitation process would be painful. Even now, she's in great discomfort."

He continued, "Jasmine is in a bad mood. She's in an unfamiliar city and has no one to rely on. She's my alumni. Besides, she was injured because of me. I have to take care of her." "Jasmine? The person you hugged that day was Jasmine?"

A long-forgotten smiling face appeared in my mind when I heard this name. I felt my heart sink, and the horrible premonition returned.

Colin was so concerned about his savior. Was it merely because she saved his life, or was it because that person was Jasmine?

In other words, he was always with her throughout the academic exchange at Lagado.

I then remembered the voice I heard on the video call when Colin went to the educational aid for the first time. It was Jasmine, after all. No wonder that voice sounded so familiar.

It was fine when I didn't know the woman's identity. I could assume that Colin was just carrying out his duties. When I found out she was Jasmine, I admitted I grew nervous and unhappy. She had liked Colin since they were at Lincoln University. I even helped her send him letters.

Although he rejected her back then, they reunited many years later in another city and went through a disaster together. It was a bad sign when he was particularly attentive to her.

My intuition told me that Jasmine's injury wasn't that simple. What would happen between the three of us would be even more complicated.

"What are you thinking about? Why are you so quiet?" Colin asked, raising his brow.

I was curious about what he thought about Jasmine, but those were only my guesses. I couldn't ask him impulsively. I didn't want to say anything hurtful or unreasonable.

I tried to concentrate on the conversation and replied to him feebly, "I'm worried about Jasmine. Colin, can I video chat with her?"

Colin thought for a while before gently rejecting me. It was the first time he had explicitly rejected me for someone who liked him. "You'd better avoid calling her for the time being. She's feeling depressed right now. You can chat with her later when her mood gets better."

Wasn't it because she was in a terrible mood that I wanted to speak with her? I wouldn't stimulate her anyway. Why didn't he let me? I hadn't done anything yet, but he was already protecting her. Sure enough, all men were bastards.

"I just care about Jasmine. Nothing else." I hid my displeasure. I was a woman, after all. It was natural for me to be jealous.

"Hmm, I know that. I'm here with her. You don't have to worry. Just take care of yourself. Wait until I get back."

I told him, "Okay, take good care of Jasmine. You don't have to call me all the time. If she replaces out and gets stimulated again, it'll be troublesome. Don't worry. If anything happens, I'll ask Winston for help.

"By the way, if you don't have enough money, just tell me. She saved your life. We must cover her medical expenses, nutritious meals, and lost wages. Don't be stingy."

Colin might have heard the insinuations in my words, but he couldn't replace any point to refute. He smiled meaningfully, revealing a bit of fierceness and attractiveness in his eyes.

I admitted I mentioned Winston on purpose.

I felt it was unjust that he could accompany Jasmine, but I couldn't approach Winston for help. Anyway, we were still in a pure alumni relationship up to now. There was nothing I couldn't say. He couldn't do anything he wanted while restricting me.
