Entwined Destinies: Captured Hearts

Chapter 1011 Steady Your Nerve

Boyce got to know that the man was caught in the villa, so he rushed over immediately. As soon as he arrived, he asked if anyone had been injured. Joshua said no. He didn’t tell Boyce what had happened to Bonnie. Fortunately, Joshua came on time, and nothing serious happened, so he didn’t want to worry Boyce. Upon hearing Joshua’s answer, Boyce breathed a sigh of relief. He called his coworkers right away to bring the dead body back. After almost two hours, the dead body was taken away and the blood on the floor in the bedroom had been cleaned up.”It’s not a good sign to have someone dead in the matrimonial home. We’d better choose another house tomorrow and sell this one.” Jasmine stood next to Boyce with a solemn look. Although Joshua said no one was injured, the desperado had died in the matrimonial home, which made her feel creepy and sickened. She believed as long as Joshua entered this house, he would think about the dead man. The more she thought about it, the more sickened she got.”Or, you can stay in the hotel,” suggested Jasmine, “We’ll pay for you.””I’ll deal with this matter.” Joshua kept calm. “It’s too late now. You should go back, leaving everything to me.””Okay. I want to check on Bonnie.” As she said, Jasmine was about to walk to the room. Joshua stopped her. “Amanda is with her now. They should be sleeping already. Later they’ll get up formakeup. Please don’t disturb them.”Upon hearing it, Jasmine couldn’t insist. She could only nod in agreement. “Okay. We’re taking off now.”In face, Jasmine couldn’t fall asleep tonight. Sitting in the car, she looked quite worried. Boyce asked, “What’s wrong?”Jasmine was silent. Boyce frowned. “The criminal has been caught though he’s dead. Later after the traitor is found out, this case should be closed. Why are you still unhappy?”Jasmine told him what had been bothering her. “Just now in the villa, I wanted to check on Bonnie, but Joshua refused. I can feel he didn’t want me to check on her.””You must have overthought.” Boyce raised his eyebrows.”I do hope so. After this case is closed, you should apply for early retirement. You’ve been working hard all your life, but you are seldom rewarded. Although the top asked you to make amends for the previous mistake, they still blamed you. How many contributions have you made? How much work have you done? Do they appreciate you?” This was the first time Jasmine wasn’t supporting Boyce in work. She was freaked out this time. A lot of bodyguards had been arranged around her house and she was always uneasy. Boyce truly had been promoted higher and higher, but he also had offended a lot of people. They were aged now. It should be the time for them to retire and enjoy their retirement.”That’s not the case. I never wished the top would appreciate me. I’m just doing everything with my conscience. I want to do something I can to contribute to society. After all, I’m in my current position. ??w.No??l??o?e.???The higher I’m promoted, the larger my responsibility is…””I’ve always heard you say so all my life. Now, please stop it. I just want my family safe and sound.” Jasmine was out of patience. Boyce had always been like this. Boyce stopped and said, “After this case is closed, I’ll submit the application for early retirement.”Jasmine turned to look at him. “You’ve been busy for a whole life. You should make time to accompany me and our daughter. Look at Armand and Theresa, Matthew and Dolores. Look at me.”Boyce knew that he had always been busy with his work, ignoring his family and his wife for a long ??W.?o?e??????.???time. He put his arm on her shoulder. “Stop complaining. As I said, I’ll apply for early retirement. What else do you want me to do?””How dare I ask you to do anything else?” Jasmine pushed his arm away. “Our daughter is getting married. It’s a happy thing. But there’s a dead man in her matrimonial home. What a bad sign! Fortunately, Joshua is quite capable. Otherwise, how can we explain if something happened to Bonnie and Amanda as they were alone in the villa? Do you know how I spent the past decades? My heart has

always been in my throat. I’ve never felt easy for one day.”Boyce heaved a sigh. “I know.”Jasmine seldom nagged about such things to him. When she married him, she knew he was ambitious and had his plan. She always supported him. Although she had been leading an uneasy life, she never thought of being a drag to him. She never let him worry about their family business so that he could always concentrate on his career. w??.??v???????.???However, after this incident, Jasmine believed that they couldn’t go on like this. It wasn’t only dangerous but also would drag people around them into the mere.”I’ll send you home first. I need to talk to my coworkers about the criminal,” said Boyce. He couldn’t go back to work now, so he could only ask his coworkers to bring the criminal back. He could only go back to work after the wedding of Bonnie and Joshua was over.”All right.” Jasmine looked a bit upset.”Are you angry?” Boyce looked at her. The car stopped and Jasmine got off. She answered, “Nope.’Then she walked into the house. None of the people in the villa had slept. All of them were shocked by this incident. Seeing Jasmine come in, they asked, “Is everything all right?””No one is injured. Fortunately, Joshua has done some security measures around the villa. The criminal has already sneaked in… If Joshua hadn’t rushed there, I can’t imagine what consequences there would be.” Jasmine felt quite lucky. Theresa pulled her to sit down. “Fortunately everything is fine. Let’s stop worrying.””I’m so freaked out. Just in the car, I asked Boyce to apply for early retirement.”Dolores poured a glass of water to her. “Have some water, Jasmine. It can steady your nerve.”However, after this incident, Jasmine believed that they couldn’t go on like this.
