Fiona arrival shortly after Bai zhe seemed to quell the tension building up even though it was for a little while. Royce called for the waiters and they began to put the trays of food on the table. She smiled at Jasper warmly, an unknown emotion gleamed across her eyes."I apologize for my tardiness," she said as she took the seat by Jasper’s side, her tone at once casual and familiar.She paid no mind to Bai Zhe at first. Her body language, her smile, even the way she leaned into Jasper it was all a give away. To the people at the table she was completely focused on him, as if the rest of the world didn't exist. Especially Bai Zhe."I had them prepare this for you," she pushed out a porcelain bowl for Jasper. Her voice raised a little, enough for the whole table and in particular Bai Zhe to hear.Bai Zhe's eyes were locked on Jasper, even though Royce was trying to explain something to him. This was the man , the so called boyfriend. If at all Fiona had her attention on someon

Soon enough it was night time. Jasper pulled up before the Bai's family Villa. Staring at the Villa, Jasper nodded in satisfaction.The Bai's family Villa was just as magnificent as he thought it would be. Shaking his head, Jasper pushed all of these thoughts to the back of his mind and walked into the Villa."And look who we have here," A sneer came just as Jasper was about to step into the Villa.Turning around, Jasper came in face with Amelia dressed in a luxurious gown, her arms interlocked with another figure.A man dressed luxuriously also. He was a short man with a rather average look making Jasper frown slightly.Seeing the two, Jasper turned around, preparing to ignore her. He couldn't be less bothered about her presence."How dare you ignore me?" Amelia instantly flew into a rage the moment Jasper ignored her."What are you?" Jasper raised his brows turning around to meet her gaze."An atm Machine? A human doll, whose ugly face has been patched up with makeup up, or better s

Jasper on the other hand alighted from his car and stared at his house, a wide smile slowly surfaced on his face.Before going to the Bai family so called banquet, be had done his homework which was why he was able to stun Bai Zhe and his grandfather If they were willing he was going to help them, else whatever they did was really none of his problems.He couldn't care less. They all owned their lives and would be accounted for whatever happened to them.Shaking his head, he pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind. There was no need to think about them.He still needed to deal with Sophia. She clearly had something she wanted to say to him.Stepping into the house, he was met with the aroma wafting from the kitchen..Sophia was nowhere to be seen, while Jasmine was moving back and forth, serving the meal.Seeing Jasper, she nodded slightly and soon disappeared into the kitchen.She never really had much of a relationship with Jasper, so she rarely converse with him."Ding!"The m

"Huh?" Jasper froze on his tracks the moment he heard this. What the heck was going on in this crazy lady's head?He had said all this just so he could dissuade her and at the same time, she would be able to see him in a not so good way.When she offered to marry him, he knew what she meant for a contract marriage, but then.What the fuck was she even thinking?"Now that I have agreed to all your terms, are you going to marry me?" Sophia's voice came once again making Jasper swallow the lump in his throat."Well..." Jasper stuttered, not knowing what to say."You know the issue of marriage is not something we can rush into. Marriage is all about love and commitment, what if...""You don't have to worry," Sophia cut off Jasper,"Feelings and the rest can be cultivated after the wedding, so we can still get along with it, right?""I...." Jasper sighed not knowing what to say. Right now, he knew he basically had two options. One was to get married to Sophia and help her solve her proble

Minutes later, Jasper walked out of the hotel donned in a black tuxedo suit. Jasper preferred to be more casual, but unluckily for Jasper, this was what they had.He would have to head back home to change first. Thinking about home, Jasper couldn't help but shudder slightly.Ever since that night where Sophia had proposed to marry him and he had used some tricks to escape from the situation, she would remind him of the matter every three days.Apart from that, she would make sure to wake up early to prepare his meal. Send lunch to him whenever he was and then cook him dinner.And if he was to eat dinner out before coming back home without informing her, she was going to get annoyed and even shed tears leaving Jasper helpless.Was this lady really desperate to marry him? Or was just just trying to manipulate him?All he could tell was that this was obviously a manipulation. There was no way she really wanted to get married to him.He didn't even know what to say to her. She was basical
