Chapter 168
Until that moment, Yasmine never imagined being in such a situation, especially facing Yonas. Irene served him
sfood and chatted with him intimately in words Yasmine couldn't understand. Awkwardness piled on as
Yasmine sipped her cup of water, Paragon Hotel's signature aroma wafting through the air. As soon as she settled
in, Chuck quickened his pace in serving the dishes, leaving promptly after. "Ms. Sanchez, does Yoselin need to
continue treatment?" Irene asked.
"For now, we can only say the condition is temporarily stable, but it's not fully cured. If there's another shock,
there's still a chance it could recur. M**al illnesses are different from physical ones; they're hard to cure,"
Yasmine explained. Irene lifted her cup and said, "Then please take good care of us, Ms. Sanchez." She took a
sip, set the cup down, and turned to Yonas, "Yonas, don't keep that cold expression; you'll scare Ms. Sanchez
away."
For sreason, Yasmine felt a pang in her heart and spoke up suddenly. "Ms. White, haven't you heard? About
Yonas and me, | thought the news was all over the place before. | assumed you would've caught wind of it. It
seems Yonas hasn't told
you."
The
smile on Irene's face faded slightly, and her gaze flickered from Yonas to Yasmine. "I really didn't know that.
Yonas toldyou two were just friends?" Yasmine looked at Yonas, puzzled. "Oh? Is that what he told you?"
"Yes, so, Ms. Sanchez, care to enlighten me? Or is there more to your relationship?" Irene's gaze was complicated
as she looked at Yasmine, a coldness evident in her eyes.
Yasmine put down her fork and gave a self-deprecating smile. "Maybe | was just overthinking it. Since Mr. Russell
told you we're friends, then, from now on, we are, indeed, just friends."
"What Ms. Sanchez said really leftconfused.
Yasmine wiped away her smile. She couldn't pretend to be strong anymore. Since Yonas told Irene they were just
friends, she'd have to admit it too. From now on, she and Yonas were just ordinary friends. "I won't disturb you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttwo any longer," she said, turning away without looking back. Irene wanted to ask Yonas something, but she saw
him rush out after Yasmine. "Yasmine!" Yonas couldn't hold it in any longer. He chased after her, wanting nothing
more than to hold her in his arms.
But Yasmine pushed him away and coldly asked, "Mr. Russell, you're overstepping! We're just ordinary friends,
maybe not even that. I'm only your sister's therapist, nothing more. It wouldn't look good if Ms. White saw us."
I'm sorry," Yonas said.
for what? For deceivingall this tor for Irene?" Yasmine asked, pronouncing each word clearly.
Yonas stood helplessly in front of her. "Yasmine, from the beginning, my feelings for you have been genuine,
even now." "Then why did you tell Irene those things?"
| can't explain it right now, but you have to trust me. | will-
"Enough! Yasmine shouted. "I've heard this too many times already, Yonas. If you say you like me, then sort out
your situation with Irene first. Don't tellyou can't see she's into you? And if you're serious about liking me,
don't just tell her we're just friends." She paused before continuing, "But before all that, let's break up."

She hid her trembling fingers behind her back, but she had to make a decision. She's not the type to drag things
out; it's better to end things now before they turn rotten and vile.
"Yasmine..." Yonas felt a chill run through his entire body, unable to even move his feet.
Yasmine didn't know how she managed to leave, not even wanting to look back.
