Chapter 12
Jasper grabbed Arya's wrist decisively. "You promised me to have dinner together yesterday. Do you
forget?"
Arya looked at Jasper, who had regained his composure as if nothing had happened.
"Jasper..."
"Do you think you can push me away in this way? It's impossible."
His eyes were so firm that Arya wavered on pushing him away.
In the past three years when she was painful and helpless, it was this man who had been with her
without asking for anything in return.
She owed him too much.
She was afraid that she couldn't return his favors.
"Jasper..."
Jasper pulled her into his arms and interrupted her.
He knew exactly what she was going to do. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
He wouldn't leave her. He would wait until the bad guys were punished and when she could open her
heart to love someone.
"I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you to finish what you want, no matter how long."
Jasper lowered his head and kissed her hair.
She had been pretending to be strong but Jasper's consideration and tolerance melted her heart.
She didn't want to cry in front of anyone because it was a sign of weakness.
But at this moment, she couldn't help it.
Jasper felt very sorry for her. He reached out to wipe her tears.
"You haven't eaten, right? I've booked two seats. I'll take you to eat delicious food." Jasper said softly.
Arya wiped her face and smiled. They then headed to the restaurant.
Jasper opened the passenger door for her and Arya bent over to sit in.
Soon, Jasper drove the car out.
When the car stopped, Arya saw the place clearly.
Instead of getting out of the car, she looked at Jasper uncertainly. "This is it?"
Jasper nodded. Although it was expensive to have a meal here, he wanted to bring her here for a meal.
"I won't eat in here." Jasper's monthly wage was probably not enough for a meal.
Jasper shook his head and refused her proposal. He got out of the car first and opened the door for
her.
"This is for welcoming you back." Jasper didn't allow her to refuse. He grabbed her wrist and let her out
of the car.
Jasper led her into the restaurant. As soon as they entered, a waiter came over and asked for their
needs.
Jasper gave out his name. When the waiter heard he had booked a table, he took them to their table.
However, as soon as they sat down, the originally quiet restaurant suddenly became lively.
The manager came out to greet the guests who had just entered.
Arya looked up and saw many people at the door.
Xavier and a beautifully dressed woman were standing in front.
It was Harriet.
Marshal, Estella, and Arya's biological father Richard were also here.
It seemed that they were here for dinner. They really looked like a happy family.
Arya had thought of a hundred kinds of places where she would meet them, but she had never thought
she would meet her 'families' here.
Before she was capable of dealing with the Harrison Family, she didn't want to go against them like
this.
She quickly lowered her head and grabbed Jasper's hand. "Can we leave?"
Jasper also saw those people at the door. He knew why Arya didn't want to see anyone of the Harrison
Family.
He was quite annoyed. He just wanted to have a meal with her but was disturbed by these people.
He stood up and blocked the view of the people at the door. "Let's leave from the back door."
However, at this moment, the waiter asked, "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Xavier looked over faintly. As soon as he came in, he saw the woman sitting by the window.
In fact, he was quite curious about why that man was so obsessed with that greedy woman.
That man didn't look like a rich man. He drove a jeep that only cost tens of thousands but he actually
brought her here to eat.
The Harrison Family also noticed the movement here, but because Jasper was deliberately blocking
Arya, they couldn't see Arya's face.
"Something urgent. Please cancel the reservation for me today. I'm sorry."
After that, Jasper left the restaurant with Arya in his arms.
"It's all my fault..."
Arya shook her head, showing that it wasn't his fault. After all, he was being kind.
Who could predict what would happen in the future?
"Let's go eat hamburgers." Arya pulled Jasper towards a hamburger store.
They ordered two hamburgers and two glasses of Coke.
Then they sat on a bench by the side of the road.
"I was going to treat you to something good, but..."
"This is delicious." Arya really meant it.
When she was in jail, she had not even had one full meal.
At that time, for her baby, she even ate something rotten and dirty.
Therefore, this kind of food was really good.
After dinner, Jasper sent Arya to work. The car stopped at the entrance of the clubhouse. "I have asked
someone to find you a job."
Jasper didn't want her to work here either. It was too messy and not safe.
He was worried that she worked here.
However, it was even more impossible for her to stay idle and do nothing.
He knew Arya very well. She already felt that she owed him. If he gave her money, she wouldn't accept
it.
So he tried to find her a suitable job as soon as possible.
So she could get out of here quickly.
Arya smiled at him without saying anything. She would remember his kindness deeply in her heart.
"Then I'll go in." When Arya turned around, Jasper stopped her. "According to my investigation, the
man we met in the restaurant today was Harriet's fiancé. Not long after you went to jail, he invested a
lot of money in K&T Inc."
