Hurriedly, she dialed a number—
"Jasper, I’m so sorry! I blacked out last night, and a colleague sent ho. It was too noisy in the KTV to hear anything, and then my phone died. I’m sorry..." Laura Quincy apologized coyly.
Laura knew she was wrong for standing her boyfriend up last night.
"Drank too much? Does your head still hurt? Rember to drink milk." Seeing the caller ID, Jasper Hawthorne pulled back the covers and went out to the balcony.
Last night, he picked up Serena Jennings from The ridian International, then took her ho. She was all over him after getting drunk, hugging and kissing him incessantly...
After what happened last night, he was a bit lost on how to face Laura now.
Laura felt even more guilty hearing her boyfriend’s gentle words. Jasper was so considerate; she was determined not to get tangled up with The Demon King anymore!
Every ti she thought of him forcefully kissing her, she wished she could slap him hard. It was just too much!
"I’m much better! How about we have dinner together tonight?"
"Tonight’s not possible, another day!"
Jasper Hawthorne refused, feeling sowhat ashad. After what had happened with Serena Jennings last night, with the two still sharing a bed, there was no way he could go on a sweet date with his girlfriend tonight.
Laura figured he was busy with work and didn’t mind, "Well, a man should prioritize his career anyway."
Jasper curled his lips into a bitter smile and then hung up the phone.
Upon returning to the room, he noticed Serena Jennings sitting up with a blanket, casually greeting him, "Hi! Morning!"
"You’re awake?"
Serena Jennings adjusted the hair that had fallen on her cheek, "Was that your girlfriend calling?"
Jasper looked at her, a little surprised, "I..."
Serena continued, "If it were a man, would you need to leave to answer? Plus, your expression was quite gentle when you spoke, so I figured it was a woman; besides, with soone as outstanding as you, having a girlfriend isn’t surprising at all."
Her analysis was spot-on, so it would seem pretentious for Jasper to deny it.
"You’re not wrong, but I’ll take responsibility for you."
Leaving him only with a lingering desire...
Serena’s initiative and passion stirred the deepest desires within him, causing him to feel sowhat lost...
For several days, her boyfriend Jasper was very busy, but Laura Quincy didn’t think much about it. Well, n should focus on their careers. It’s not healthy for them to be glued together all the ti.
In the afternoon, a call from an unknown number ca in, "Is this Miss Quincy? You previously registered on our site for a part-ti job, and we now have a fitting opportunity. Are you interested?"
Laura was sowhat surprised, "Yes, what does the job entail?"
The other party replied, "Tutoring children in English."
Hearing that, Laura readily agreed, "Great, what’s the pay?"
The other party stated, "During the trial period, the monthly salary is 6000; once officially employed, you’ll need to negotiate directly with the family."
Laura felt like a pie had fallen from the sky and imdiately agreed.
On Saturday morning, Laura arrived at the agreed eting place, a private and quite elegant room. As she wondered about the background of the child she was to tutor, the door was pushed open.
Uh...
For a mont, the three of them stared at each other, seeming surprised by this eting scenario.
It was Justin Hawthorne who reacted first, exclaiming in surprise, "Sister! What are you doing here?"
Laura was a bit dumbfounded too, could the child she was supposed to tutor be Little Mars?
