On the Day I Was Kicked Out of the Wealthy Family, I Had a Flash Marriage with a Tycoon Chapter 121: Bewitched Again, Jasper Lockwood is Like a Demo

Chloe Sterling clenched her fists. She desperately wanted to raise her hand and use the Enchanting Fragrance on him, but after a mont’s hesitation, she slowly relaxed her grip, letting him carry her back to the bedroom.

Jasper Lockwood placed her on the large bed, his entire body looming over her. He gazed at her with his deep, phoenix-like eyes, his voice husky and magnetic. "I can’t enchant you, is that it?"

Chloe Sterling’s eyes widened as she looked at him, subconsciously swallowing. "W-what?"

"You just said I couldn’t enchant you."

"I..."

"Then let’s put it to the test." Before she could say anything more, Jasper Lockwood’s bewitching voice sounded again as his kiss descended.

Outside the window, the moon hung high in the night sky, bringing with it a deeper chill.

But inside the room, waves of heat rolled, creating endless ripples.

The night passed, and the sky was bright with daylight.

Chloe Sterling was still sound asleep, showing no sign of waking.

Jasper Lockwood was already awake. He looked at the girl still sleeping soundly in his arms, his expression shifting. He couldn’t say he was happy; there was even a faint hint of worry.

He had been drinking last night, and after Chloe Sterling provoked him, he’d lost so control, wearing her out for hours.

Ti ticked by, second by second. It was nearly ten o’clock when Chloe Sterling’s eyelids finally fluttered and she slowly opened her eyes, only to et a pair of deep, phoenix-like eyes.

"You’re awake," Jasper Lockwood said softly.

Chloe Sterling’s eyes shifted. She suddenly rembered everything from last night, and her cheeks grew hot again. She didn’t speak, and Jasper Lockwood didn’t say anything either, just watched her quietly.

After a long mont, Chloe Sterling lowered her gaze and asked, "What ti is it?"

After a pause, Jasper Lockwood said, "A little after eleven."

’It’s so late again!’

Chloe Sterling pressed her lips together. "I should get up."

She was still in his arms, held by him.

But Jasper Lockwood didn’t move.

After waiting for a while and seeing no movent from him, Chloe Sterling looked up at him.

Jasper Lockwood said, "It’s already so late. Just lie here a bit longer. We can go down when lunch is ready."

Chloe Sterling’s fingers clutched the blanket. "I want to get up."

Even though her whole body was sore and weak, she still wanted to get up. ’Sleeping in this late is embarrassing enough. If I can’t even get out of bed, it’ll make seem too pathetic.’

Jasper Lockwood’s eyes darkened, and a flicker of disappointnt crossed their depths.

"Fine. Then let’s get up."

Jasper Lockwood got up first. Chloe Sterling clutched the blanket, not looking at him. She only got up after he went into the bathroom.

All the way through the al, Chloe Sterling didn’t say another word, nor did she even glance at Jasper Lockwood.

She wasn’t exactly angry, but her mood had been complicated these past couple of days.

Could Jasper Lockwood enchant her?

The answer was undeniable: he could. Chloe Sterling increasingly felt that Jasper Lockwood was like a siren, capable of bewitching one’s very soul.

But the problems that existed between them couldn’t be ignored.

Leaving the dining room, Chloe Sterling suddenly spoke. "I have sothing to do, so I’m heading out."

"Leaving right after eating?" Jasper Lockwood asked.

"Mhm," she responded, walking out before he could say anything more.

Watching the girl’s retreating back, a complex expression appeared on Jasper Lockwood’s face.

After waking up, Chloe Sterling hadn’t gotten angry with him, nor had she shown any rage, but her silence made him just as uncomfortable, leaving him feeling frustrated.

By concentrating on her driving, Chloe Sterling managed to temporarily forget Jasper Lockwood’s face and certain other images.

「Orchid Labs HQ.」

Faith Morrison was dressed in a white pantsuit, looking beautiful and sharp.

"What! The salesperson didn’t say people with RH-negative blood can’t use ’Enchanted’? That’s impossible! We only have a limited run of 20 bottles a year, and the list of buyers is crystal clear. How could they possibly forget to ntion sothing so important?"

"Besides, after a successful preorder, we always send the client a ssage and a card first. It’s written clearly on both the ssage and the card. I verified it myself; there’s absolutely no way there was a mistake."

"Is Ruby Lynch on the list?" Chloe Sterling asked.

Faith Morrison paused for a mont before replying, "She is. She preordered at the end of last year. You weren’t in Crestfall back then, so I didn’t know about your history with her. But she definitely won’t be getting a bottle of next year’s new release."

Chloe Sterling raised an eyebrow. "Is next year’s new release already decided?"

Faith Morrison chuckled. "Of course not. We’re waiting for you to add the finishing touch! When are you going to stop by the R&D center?"

Chloe Sterling walked over to a nearby sofa and sat down, saying languidly, "I’ll wait a while. I don’t have any ideas lately."

Faith Morrison sat down beside her. "Since you’ve decided to stay in Crestfall, are you going to attend this year’s new product launch?"

"Nope!" Chloe Sterling’s refusal was swift and decisive.

Faith Morrison was speechless.

In truth, she had guessed Chloe Sterling wouldn’t go. Chloe had never liked dealing with the won in the circle of wealthy socialites, who spent all day comparing themselves to one another.

Chloe Sterling looked at her, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Having soone as diplomatic as you is enough."

Faith Morrison smiled. "I knew you wouldn’t go. Have it your way."

The two of them chatted for a while about next year’s limited-edition new release and the year-end launch event. There were still three months until the new year, so even though the new fragrance hadn’t been decided on yet, there was still ti.

When it ca to perfu, Chloe Sterling was the inspiration-driven type. Sotis she would only finalize a fragrance a few days before the launch, but once she did, it was always a delightful surprise for everyone.

The perfu brand Orchid Labs wasn’t mainstream; so ordinary people had never even heard of it. But it was extrely famous among socialites, heiresses, and the wives of the wealthy. A single bottle of its perfu cost as much as a house. The annual high-luxury new release was limited to only 20 bottles. One needed an invitation to attend the launch event, and only by attending did one get the opportunity to purchase it.

Therefore, even within elite circles, getting one’s hands on a limited-edition bottle of Orchid Labs perfu was no easy feat.

「The Rivers Family estate.」

Ruby Lynch’s willingness to give Mrs. Sheffield the Orchid Labs perfu she had worked so hard to acquire was a testant to her sincerity—and, of course, a way to flaunt her status as Mrs. Rivers.

After all, not just anyone could own a limited-edition fragrance from Orchid Labs.

It was only after she returned yesterday that she rembered the card she had received earlier, which did indeed state clearly that the perfu could not be used by people with RH-negative blood.

She hadn’t looked at it closely at the ti and had just given the perfu to Mrs. Sheffield, never expecting such a situation to arise.

Fortunately, Mrs. Sheffield was a reasonable person and didn’t say much about it.

But the incident only made Ruby Lynch despise Chloe Sterling even more. ’If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have been publicly humiliated.’

’Once Esther Sterling wins first place in the piano competition and gets closer to Tristan Sinclair, I will definitely drive this insufferable little bitch out of Crestfall.’

’I refuse to believe that the person backing her is more powerful than Tristan Sinclair.’

After leaving Orchid Labs HQ, Chloe Sterling went to The dical College.

In the lab, Maya Jacobs frowned, thinking about what her mother had told her yesterday.

’Tristan Sinclair actually favors Esther Sterling. It’s highly likely Esther will take first place in this competition. If that really happens, I can just imagine how much more smug and insufferable she’ll beco.’

"What are you thinking about with such a frown?" Chloe Sterling asked as she walked over.

Maya Jacobs looked up at her and suddenly sighed.

"...What’s wrong?" Chloe Sterling asked.
