Yasmeen wasn't sure, and she didn't know how to talk about it.
She should have confessed to Lucas about it, but in the end, she couldn't. Now, looking at Zoe's concerned and determined eyes, she knew that once Zoe stepped in, she really couldn't keep her secret.
Zoe was the oldest daughter of the Green Family. Although she usually looked like she only enjoyed eating and drinking and was a blogger who liked to share her food, Yasmeen knew that she also had her own information network and line of contacts.
Thinking about it, Yasmeen said with a sigh, "I don't really know if being related to you is a good thing or a bad thing."
"At least in terms of your and Lucas' safety, I am your security. There are times when those closely involved in some things cannot see as clearly as those outside. If you talk to me, maybe I can give you a piece of advice."
Zoe's words left Yasmeen speechless.
With a sigh, she said, "Let's find a café. I'll tell you slowly."
"Okay."
The two went to the cafe next door, got a single room, and sat down.
Yasmeen just drank the coffee at first, not talking, and Zoe didn't push her. When the cup of coffee was finished, Zoe poured her another cup.
She didn't know how many cups she drank, and finally, her stomach was a little bloated before she said, "I donated a kidney to your brother."
When she finished, Zoe choked directly on her coffee.
She coughed violently. Yasmeen quickly handed her a tissue and said with a smile, "What's wrong? You didn't expect that?"
Zoe managed to stop coughing and looked at Yasmeen's calm face in shock. Tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
"Are you stupid?"
She couldn't tell what was going on inside her.
Lucas had looked everywhere for the person who had donated a kidney to him, and his family was prepared to pay back that person for saving Lucas’s lives even if they had to give half of the Green Family. But what happened?
The person was Yasmeen!
Who was Yasmeen?
The princess of the Country Y!
The apple of Steven and Ashley's eye.
If it weren't for Yasmeen being fond of Lucas, and if it weren't for their trust in the people of the Green Family, Steven and Ashley would never be comfortable leaving their daughter unattended over here.
But then?
They didn't keep an eye on Yasmeen and let her lose a kidney!
"Yasmeen, you're out of your mind, aren't you?"
Zoe knew it was a bit offensive to her brother to say that. But she and Yasmeen grew up together, and some people would believe her if she said they were sisters.
But she had donated her kidney without telling anyone, and afterward, without saying a word, she pretended that nothing had happened.
Zoe knew very well that she could have done that for love.
Yasmeen just smiled and said, "I didn't give it to anyone else. It's my future husband I'm giving it to."
"Bullshit! You know full well that's not what I'm talking about! My brother doesn't know, does he? I'll have to tell him!"
With that, Zoe was about to call, but Yasmeen snatched the phone away from her.
"You can't tell him. If you can, don't ever tell him in your life!"
"Yasmeen! You're not being fair to yourself or to my brother! My brother has a right to know the truth!"
Zoe's eyes got a little wet.
A kidney!
Such love was lucky for Lucas, but a little less fair for Yasmeen.
Anyway, Zoe was very distressed for Yasmeen!
She got up at once and hugged Yasmeen tightly, then said with a sob, "If my brother fails you in this life, I'll get him killed."
Yasmeen's heart suddenly warmed up.
"With you saying that, I feel especially secure."
"Don't be. You might as well think earlier about what you'll do when my brother finds out. And if your parents find out, there will be an uproar. There's no telling what will happen to the two families."
Zoe, despite her love of food and fun, had a high EQ.
Yasmeen nodded and told her about the agreement between her and Julian.
After listening to it, Zoe frowned slightly. Her pretty eyes narrowed as she said, "Julian targeted my brother right from the start. Who the hell is he?"
"I don't know. I had Jasmine check it out. But everything on this guy is encrypted and Jasmine can't decode it."
Yasmeen's words froze Zoe.
There was information in the world that Jasmine couldn't decode?
She and Lucas had similar hacking skills, so if Jasmine couldn't solve it, it was probably a bit difficult for Lucas too.
"My brother knows about Julian?"
"They crossed paths, and Julian suffered a loss at the hands of Lucas. I don't think it's a coincidence that either Penny or Julian appeared this time. Maybe there's a big net coming towards us that we can't see."
Yasmeen had this instinct, and she was quite sensitive.
If that was indeed the case, should she be on guard in advance? Or should she go and kill Julian by surprise as she and he were collaborators?

What is it with Chinese authors. The characters are slow, he finally opened his mouth, it took him so long just to say two words...the house keeper would have put the person out before he even spoke....is this really how people are over there..the characters are always lost in thought, they might as well live in their heads.....
