Chapter 776
Based on the Bucham family’s network, Josh was extremely clear about her entire family historystretching back eighteen generations. He even knew about how many children her grandmother hadhad and how many had survived to adulthood. She did not even know that.
She only knew her father had four siblings and thought her grandparents had only had five children.
Once, she had no idea what they had been talking about before that, but Josh mentioned her fatherhad eight siblings. It was just that only five of them reached adulthood, while the remaining four haddied when they were infants.
At the time, Jasmine was struck dumb.
She then returned home and asked her father, but he had no idea either. When she asked hergrandmother about it, it was only then her grandmother admitted that that was the truth.
In the past, living standards were bad and many people had many children, but most had at least onechild who passed away.
Her grandmother asked her how she knew about that.
It had been her first four children who passed away. The latter five survived and lived to become adults.
That was why even her father had not known he had lost four siblings before him.
This made Jasmine realize how much more powerful and terrifying than she had imagined theBuchams were.
Just as she had put it to Serenity, she was as plain as day to Josh–there were no secrets to speak of.
On the other hand, she knew absolutely nothing about Josh.
She not only felt it was unfair but also scared–scared of Josh and the Bucham family’s power.
Thus, she liked Josh but did not dare immediately accept his suit. She thought, ‘Let’s get to know him alittle better.‘
Josh felt a little disappointed but was not discouraged. He said, “That’s fine. I’ll wait for you, no matterhow long it takes. I’m willing to wait until you feel like you know me really well and you’re willing tobecome my girlfriend. I’m even going to wait until you’re willing to marry me and become my wife.
“But Jasmine, can you tell me why you’re so against becoming my girlfriend right now? You could get toknow me better during the dating stage too.”
Jasmine was silent for a moment before she replied, “Mr. Bucham, I’m afraid of your family and itspower. Buchams have always been mysterious and no one has ever really understood your family. Youguys have always been able to dig out everything, whatever you guys want to know.
“Before we went on the blind date, you knew I was going, so you dug up everything you could on myfamily, didn’t you?
“I feel like I have no secrets to speak of before you. I hope you can stop using your family’s influenceand power again to watch me and that you can interact with me like a normal person. Let me havesome freedom and some secrets of my own. And when you’re with me, you can just be Josh, and notJosh Bucham of the Bucham family. Can you do that?”novelbin
Josh was just the nephew of the head of the Bucham family and was already this formidable.
Would the heir of the Buchams not be even more terrifying?
Jasmine felt that whoever the heir fell for was extremely unfortunate.
No one wanted themselves to be completely exposed by someone else while they knew nothing aboutthe other person.
Josh was silent..
He had only wanted to know more about her.
That was the only reason he used his family network to find out everything he could about her family.
This was the first time he had wanted to get close to a girl, after all. He had been more meticulous thanwhen he helped Zachary look into something. He knew everything about Jasmine and her family, nomatter big or small.
Normally, he would continue to pretend in front of Jasmine.
Unfortunately, he had loose lips and was a blabbermouth. Sometimes, he would only realize he hadsaid something he should not have after saying it.
Maybe that was how he managed to make the sensitive Jasmine feel repulsed by him.
He knew it–Jasmine clearly did feel something for him too, so why was she unwilling to be hisgirlfriend? The reason turned out to be that he knew too much.
