Chapter 678


    In the other room, Jasper, who had juste out of the bathroom with a white towel wrapped around his lower body, saw the


    phone on the bed shing.


    He took a step forward and bent down. The water droplets flowed down his V-line and entered the towel. His waist was a little


    wet. When he saw his sister''s message, he replied without hesitation, "| have something to doter. You guys can y.”


    Olivia thought that it was apany matter and said regretfully, "Alright, then you can settle it ande overter."


    Olivia put away her phone and said to Liam, who was arranging cards, "My brother has to deal with thepany''s matters and


    won''t be here for a while. What should the three of us ying?"


    Ste said, "Let''s y Texas. Let''s see who wins more times in one night. The loser will treat us to supper."


    The three of them raised their hands and high-fived, reaching an agreement. "Deal."


    On the other side, Jasper quickly pulled off the towel and threw it on the sofa. He took out his pajamas from his suitcase and put


    them on. Without drying his hair, he strode out of the room.


    Four bodyguards stood at the door of Ruby. When they saw Jaspering over with his head wet, they greeted him respecifully,


    "Hello, Mr. Wilson."


    Jasper stopped in his tracks and nced at the closed door. He turned to the four of them and instructed, "Go to the dining room


    and eat something. I''ll protect her for you."


    They looked at each other, but no one said anything. "I''ll exin to her father. You''re not AWOL."


    The bodyguard said, "Okay, Mr. Wilson. We''ll be right back."


    After the few of them entered the elevator, Jasper only took a few seconds to open the door. After entering, he gently closed the


    door. The dark room was silent, so quiet that he could hear his heartbeat.


    The nket on the bed was bulging and moving. She did not look like she was sleeping well. He walked over quickly and


    squatted by the bed to check. He saw that her face was a little pale and she was visibly ufortable.


    Seeing this, his face turned cold. She was curious why he was here. Wasn''t he ying cards in Liam''s room?


    After staring at each other for a few seconds, they spoke at the same time. She was weak and he controlled his emotions. "I


    don''t feel well."


    She said, "Why are you here?"


    Ruby smiled and covered her stomach with her hand under the nket. She did not want him to worry. "I''m fine. It''s normal. I''ll


    be fine after sleeping.”


    He knew that she had never been a spoilsport. She would not say that she wanted to sleep unless there were special


    circumstances. Fortunately, he came over to take a look. He raised his hand and pushed away the hair on her cheek. He asked


    gently, "Did you eat something bad?"


    Ruby stared at him without blinking. His eyes were visibly nervous and worried. She shook her head.


    Recalling his sister Olivia''s situation before, he asked again, "Is it... that?"


    "Yeah."


    "Did you use heat pack?"


    Jasper''s words were even warmer than heat pack''s words on her stomach. One was on her skin, and the other was on her entire


    body. She nodded and said, "Yes, go y. I''m fine."


    He did not say anything. His lips were pursed tightly as he stood up with a cold expression and walked out. Before she could turn


    around, she heard the door m. The sound of the door closing disappointed her. Her stomach seemed to hurt even more and


    she felt a little wronged.


    She took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions. She nned to call Jasper "Brother" a few more times in the future, and then


    muffledly called out several times under the covers.


    Half an hourter.


    The door of the room opened again, and the four bodyguards who had originally left stood guard at the door. Jasper opened the


    door as if no one was around and picked the lock in front of the bodyguards.


    The bodyguard was speechless. Was this good? They could pretend that they were blind, but they weren''t really blind.


    Jasper acted as if nothing had happened. He walked in with a ss in his hand. The door was closed again. When he walked


    into the room, he saw that the person on the bed was still curled up under the nket. She was suffocated under the nket,


    leaving only her brown hair outside. He sighed and walked closer.


    Hearing the footsteps, Ruby poked her head out from under the nket again. Thinking that it was Olivia, Jasper''s facial


    features, which had returned, entered her eyes again. She was delighted. "Didn''t you go to y cards?"


    He didn''t answer and sat down on the edge of the bed. Then, he poured a ss of warm water with honey and ced it on the


    bed. He got up and took a pillow. He gently helped Ruby up and ced the pillow on her waist. He asked, "Do you need another


    one?"


    Ruby shook her head. Her gaze was on the cup on the bed.


    After helping her tidy up the nket, he handed the cup to her and said gently, "Red dates, wolfberries and ginger. | drank it


    before. It tastes alright. Olivia often drinks it too. If it doesn''t taste good, I''ll go get rock sugar."


    She held the ss in her hand and felt warm inside. She smiled foolishly, making him feel a little embarrassed. "You made it. Did


    you go to the kitchen to make it?"This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    Jasper averted his gaze unnaturally. He was too embarrassed to look at her. Her gaze was too direct. "Yes, drink it. Drink it and


    sleep."


    She smiled and finished the water in the ss in small sips. She handed the empty ss to him. Just as he took it, Ruby stared


    at him with gurgling eyes and suddenly asked, "What''s the deadline you''ve prepared?"


    This was the first time she had asked that question.


    Silence. His hand that was holding the ss froze in the air. No one said anything for a long time. She stared at him, waiting for


    an answer. He stared nkly at the ss she had drunk from. The warmth was still there. It was very hot.


    Seconds ticked by. She waited.


    He looked up and met her expectant gaze. He felt a little flustered. He, who had never panicked during his first high-level


    meeting, was convinced that he was panicking at this moment. "I''ll shorten the time."


    He did not give a specific time, afraid that he would break his promise.


    After drinking warm water with honey, her stomach began to heat up slightly. She was not angry. Her gaze turned to his slightly


    wet hair. Her hand under the nket tightened and let go. After a few seconds of silence, she said gently with a calm smile, "Go


    dry your hair. I''m fine."


    Seeing that he didn''t move and there was nervousness in his eyes, she felt it and smiled again. She couldn''t help but raise her


    hand to touch his hair, her fingertips carrying a trace of coldness. "Brother, I''m not angry. I''ll sleep for a while."


    Calling him brother again?


    She said that she wasn''t angry. He tried his best to suppress the urge to say something.


    After a moment, he moved and stood up. He picked up the cup by the bed and held it tightly. He looked at her for a few seconds.


    "Send me a message if you''re not feeling well."


    Ruby had alreadyid down. Her eyes were filled withplicated emotions as she replied, "Okay."


    Jasper, who was walking to the door, suddenly thought of something. He turned around and said to the person on the bed, "Don''t


    eat cold food in the future."


    As soon as he finished speaking, he left the room with mixed emotions without getting an answer from the person on the bed.


    When the bodyguards saw Jaspering out of the room with a dark face and a cold aura, the four bodyguards were a little


    stunned. They guessed that the two of them must have quarreled.


    Jasper, who had returned to his room, did not listen to Ruby and go to the bathroom to blow dry his hair. Instead, he stood by the


    window with a pack of cigarettes in his hand. He bent his index finger and knocked on the pack of cigarettes. He shook out a


    cigarette and lowered his head to put it in his mouth. With a click, a smear of scarlet light lit up in the dark room.


    The moonlight shone in through the window, making his dark face look even colder. It was deep, and his frustration and


    suppressed emotions was be seen.


    His long fingers held the cigarette butt and flicked it in the ashtray on the window sill. He raised his hand and stuffed the cigarette


    between his lips. He took a few puffs and exhaled arge smoke ring,pletely blurring his well-defined facial features. All that


    was left was the oppressive atmosphere.


    His mind was filled with memories.


    He was not only in the same kindergarten as Ruby. They were in the same elementary school, middle school, high school, and


    university. Other than the fact that they were in the same school and not in the same ss in college, they were deskmates in


    the other grades.


    Because of this, he heard a lot of things he didn''t want to hear. "Isn''t he Trevon''s son?"


    “If he wasn''t the Wilson family''s grandson, he would be nothing. Could he be arranged to sit at the same table as Ruby, the


    school belle?"


    "It''s all set by the teacher. Look at how long they''ve been deskmates. He upy the advantage and doesn''t use it."


    There were many more, but these people were fawning over him. They always called Jasper "Boss".


    Those words were harsh, but they wre reasonable. Wasn''t he just wearing his father''s halo?


    Apart from being Trevon''s son, what else could he give her? How long could she wait for him?


    It was as if there was a ball of cotton stuffed in his chest. He was suffocated and raised his hand to take a deep puff of the


    cigarette.

    It wasn''t a good feeling. "When the deadline you''ve prepared?"


    It kept circling around his ears and repeating.


    He was immersed in his own thoughts and memories. Olivia had been knocking on the door for a long time, but there was no


    reaction from inside.


    He did not pick up the call or reply to the message. This made Olivia, who was standing at the door, a little worried. She used


    lockpicking to easily open the door to her brother''s room.


    As soon as she opened it, the pungent smell of smoke blew into her face. It almost sent her away. It was so suffocating.


    Olivia covered her nose with one


    hand and kept waving her other hand

    walked to her brother''s side, thinking


    that there was still a cigarette box on

    She took it and realized that it was empty. She threw it into the trash can in the room and threw the lighter away. She stared at


    her brother, who was still standing by the window.


    Seeing that his sister had arrived, Jasper opened the window a little. He did not turn around and looked at a certain point outside


    the window. "Go to sleep."


    Olivia automatically ignored her brother''s words. She frowned. She tugged at her brother''s hand and looked worried. "Jasper,


    what''s wrong? Did something happen?"


    When he returned from the night market, he was still fine. Olivia had never seen her brother smoke so much. No, she had never


    seen her brother smoke. "Jasper, when did you learn to smoke?"


    He didn''t answer any of her questions. He just urged his sister to go to sleep.


    Her brother looked very much like some of the heartbroken people she had seen. They were drunk in the middle of the night and


    were willing to degenerate. However, her brother did not have a girlfriend.


    Olivia could not understand what was


    going on. Her brother, who had not

    Seeing that her brother still did not intend to tell her, Olivia did not force him. As long as her brother did not want to tell him, even


    if his father came, it would be useless.


    Her brother''s mouth was like a lock that could not be opened at all.


    She even suspected that her brother had been an agent a lifetime ago.


    In the end, she was pushed out of the door by her brother with worry and doubts. Before she left, Olivia reminded her brother not


    to smoke anymore, and Jasper agreed.


    His mouth was filled with the taste of smoke, and he wasn''t feeling well. He didn''t intend to smoke anymore.
