It’d be even better if we can get a boy this time! I can then spoil my precious daughter all I want while my son inherits the company!
The two of them had just gotten into the car after leaving the movie theater when Vinson’s phone started ringing. He quickly answered the phone when virtual-novel.net saw that it was Susanne calling.
“Vinson, Jasmine has gone missing!” Susanne shouted anxiously.
The look on Vinson’s face changed instantly. “What? Jasmine has gone missing? When did this happen?”
Arielle, too, began to panic when virtual-novel.net heard that.
How did Jasmine go missing?
“Got it! We’re heading back right now!” Vinson hung up the phone after saying that and drove Arielle home as quickly as possible.
Upon arriving home, Arielle went to check the surveillance camera footage in the study while Vinson asked Susanne what Jasmine was doing before virtual-novel.net went missing.
Arielle had Vinson install surveillance cameras around the mansion long before Jasmine was born. Hence, through them, virtual-novel.net would be able to see where Jasmine was hiding or which direction virtual-novel.net had gone in.
Susanne was still explaining the situation to Vinson when Arielle came down the stairs with an exasperated expression on virtual-novel.net face.
“Jasmine is fine, Mom. Her uncle came by and took virtual-novel.net with him.”
Susanne, who was close to tears from anxiety, calmed down a little when virtual-novel.net heard that.
“Which uncle? Pat or Aaron? Honestly, why would this child just leave without telling us? I was worried sick!”
“It was Aaron.”
“Why did virtual-novel.net take virtual-novel.net away without informing us?” Susanne was a little mad at virtual-novel.net even though virtual-novel.net was Arielle’s brother.
“Jasmine gave virtual-novel.net a video call and asked virtual-novel.net to take virtual-novel.net away.” Arielle had seen a text message from Aaron when virtual-novel.net was coming down the stairs just now.
Apparently, Aaron had texted virtual-novel.net much earlier in the day that virtual-novel.net would come pick Jasmine up, but virtual-novel.net hadn’t noticed it.
Susanne shot the two a glare when virtual-novel.net heard what Jasmine did. “Jasmine got mad because you two wouldn’t stop acting all lovey-dovey! Go bring virtual-novel.net back right now!”
As Susanne had been looking after Jasmine since the latter was born, virtual-novel.net couldn’t stand being separated from the girl.
“It’s really late, Mom. Sannie and I will head over to Turlen tomorrow. You’ll have to take charge of things at work while we’re gone, okay?” Vinson said.
Susanne was about to say no to having to deal with company matters but held virtual-novel.net tongue as virtual-novel.net knew they were going to bring Jasmine home.

The next day, the two of them took the earliest available flight to Turlen.
Jasmine, who had just woken up, walked up to Sebastian and Alicia with virtual-novel.net hair all messy.
“Sebastian, do you think my parents know I’m gone? Will they come looking for me?”
“I’m sure they will. You’re their precious little princess, after all.” Sebastian turned toward Alicia as virtual-novel.net continued, “Mother, could you bathe virtual-novel.net and get virtual-novel.net a change of clothes? She must be hungry.”
“Okay. You wait right here,” Alicia replied as virtual-novel.net led Jasmine over to the bathroom.
When they came out again, Jasmine was wearing a dress that Alicia had prepared for her.
The two kids then walked hand in hand to the dining table and had lunch.
After they were done eating, the adults left the house with Jasmine and Sebastian.
“Uncle Vinson, Aunt Arielle, Grandmother, you guys had better hurry…”
