Chapter 11
After Justin left Landon Group, he went straight to Jasmine’s school.
Upon seeing Justin’s bleeding arm outside the car, Jasmine hesitated for a moment, but she decided to get in after observing his stable mood.
“Don’t you find Stella stupid? Why doesn’t she remember me and even dare to wield a knife against me?”
Justin thought about the recent scene, feeling frustrated, and pounded the steering wheel a few times.
Upon hearing Justin’s words, Jasmine understood the situation.
“Maybe Miss Stella isn’t really in love with you? No one will forget the one they love,” Jasmine replied, lightly placing her hand on his thigh, her gaze showing some sympathy. “If it were me, I wouldn’t forget my loved one, and I wouldn’t resort to violence against them.” 1
Justin was deeply moved by Jasmine’s words.
Jasmine was young, beautiful, and so innocent, truly a thousand times better than Stella.
He leaned in slowly, but this time Jasmine didn’t evade; instead, she comforted Justin with her presence.
Justin also fell into a tender moment.
The two of them were intertwined for a while, and Justin felt like he was reliving his youth. He spent lavishly on Jasmine, buying her clothes, shoes, bags, and even a villa.
As I entered the school, I overheard people discussing these matters. My steps paused for a moment, but only briefly.
Today, I represented Landon Group to return to my alma mater as a lecturer. I went to the classroom early to familiarize myself with the equipment. After a brief visit to the restroom, I returned to hear the discussions of a few female students.
“Jasmine, I heard that Mr. Reed bought you a villa. Is that true?”
“It must be true. She has all sorts of luxury goods.”
Jasmine glanced at her flattering roommates, placed the limited–edition bag on the table, and chuckled. “You guys are quite well–informed.”
As they chatted animatedly, one girl interjected “But Jasmine, I heard that Mr. Reed has a fiancée.”
“A fiancée? She’s just a woman who lost her memory. There’s nothing to fear. You may not

know, but Justin is head over heels for me now. If I were to ask him to jump off a cliff, he might just do it.” Jasmine scoffed lightly.
As soon as she finished speaking, I walked in.
Jasmine stood up in fright, looking at me with fear written all over her face.
“You, why… are you here?” Jasmine stammered
Ignoring her, I went up to the podium to continue organizing the course materials.
“Jasmine, do you know this instructor? She’s currently appointed as our lecturer. I heard she’s from Landon Group, and she’s also our senior, someone very capable.”
Someone explained to Jasmine upon seeing her agitation.
Jasmine’s face turned pale, her hands tightly gripping her bag, and she didn’t even hear what was being said to her.
I finished teaching the class smoothly, and as the students started leaving, Jasmine remained seated until everyone had left the classroom. Then, with a nervous expression, she walked towards me.
“Justin loves me, so don’t think about breaking us up,” Jasmine said coldly.
I gripped the mouse tightly, straightened my body, and looked up at the young and beautiful Jasmine with a slight smile. “Miss Jasmine, as long as you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear.”
Buzz-
“I’m at the school gate.”
It was a message from Raleigh.
He had been particularly clingy lately. Before, he wouldn’t look for me unless I sought him out, but now he seemed to want to stick to me like glue.
Ignoring Jasmine, I hurriedly grabbed my bag and rushed out. When I saw the familiar car, I ran over with a smile and waved to the person inside the car. “Raleigh!”
He took me to a high–end restaurant, and after dinner, we went to the amusement park.
It was lively there, and I was very happy.

However, Raleigh’s expression suddenly turned serious. He turned to look at me, hesitated for a long time, his eyes dark and dull, his voice so low that I could barely hear

“Stella, have you ever thought that I’m not your boyfriend?”
