### A Ride to Reflection


    In her luxurious Rolls-Royce, Jasmine sent Charlie off to the supermarket.


    Before long, the grand vehicle came to a halt in front of the supermarket. As Charlie stepped out, he turned to Jasmine and said, “Thanks for the ride. Bye.”


    Jasmine nodded, her expression a mix of emotions. “Have a nice day, Master Wade. You’re always wee at Glorious Club. Pleasee and enjoy the facilities whenever you can. I’ll be there to serve you personally.”


    Charlie smiled faintly and responded, “Okay, I’ll drop by when I’m free. Bye.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    She nodded again. “Alright, Master Wade, bye.”


    With a respectful farewell, Jasmine watched Charlie meld into the bustling crowd of the supermarket, a sigh escaping her lips as she felt a wave of disappointment wash over her.


    It struck her as unfair and disheartening that Charlie, a man of immense strength and potential, was rushing to the supermarket to gather ingredients for dinner before his wife finished work.


    Jasmine recalled her previous encounter with ire. While ire was undeniably beautiful and graceful, in Jasmine’s eyes, she fell short in temperament, education, capability, and family lineage.


    Having received an aristocratic education from a young age, Jasmine exuded a noble demeanor, even among the descendants of European royalty. She had graduated from Harvard University, whereas ire had attended Aurous Hill, highlighting a stark contrast in their educational backgrounds.


    Currently, Jasmine was managing half of the Moore family’s business, overseeing industries that thrived under her leadership. In stark contrast, ire struggled to navigate her own family’s affairs, overshadowed by her grandmother and cousin. Lacking the necessary skills and strategy, ire seemed lost in her own ambitions.


    Theparison didn’t end there; ire’s family background was equallycking. The small Wilson family was teetering on the brink of bankruptcy, and ire had just started her own office, which only deepened the disparity between them.


    Yet, there was one aspect in which ire outshone Jasmine—her husband.


    This was the source of Jasmine’s envy.


    How could someone as seemingly inept as ire be blessed with a husband as devoted and loving as Charlie? Jasmine, despite her numerous qualities, found herself questioning why she couldn’t attract a man of Charlie’s caliber.


    Proud by nature and rarely envious of anyone, Jasmine felt a strange sense of jealousy towards ire for the first time.


    To Jasmine, a man as capable and influential as Charlie deserved to be with a woman who matched him in every way—someone like herself. It seemed like a perfect match destined to be!


    There were moments when Jasmine contemted confessing her feelings to Charlie, to share her admiration for him. However, after much reflection, she decided against it.<fned7e> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on find?novel</fned7e>


    It wasn’t that she didn’t want him to know her feelings; rather, she was uncertain of the oue. A hasty confession might push Charlie away or even disgust him, and she certainly didn’t want that.


    Years spent in the intricate dynamics of the Moore family and the business realm had honed Jasmine’s instincts for assessing situations and acting wisely.


    Thus, she resolved to keep her feelings for Charlie in check for the time being, nning to confess only after spending more time with him and nurturing a connection strong enough for him to reciprocate her feelings.
