She couldn’t get him into trouble as soon as she had sex with him.


    “Mr. Milton.”


    “What did you just call me?” Jasper Milton frowned.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    “You promised me that you wouldn’t let anyone know. I think there is no problem with the way I address you. You don’t have to be angry with me,” Natalie Wheeler retorted.


    “Iwill be cautiouswhen there are others around, but now there are only two of us. This title is too distant, and it makes you feel far away from me,” Jasper exined.


    Natalie thought about it and changed the way she referred to him, “Jasper, listen to me, you’ve misunderstood what happened to Eli. Ever since she got together Sean, she fell out with her family. You shouldn’t intervene in this matter. After all, whoever started the trouble should end it.”


    “Is that true? Why did you approach Allen then?” Jasper asked suspiciously.


    “Sean said that if we can’t purchase the painting, we should ask Allen for help. Allen and Stephen are friends despite their age difference. I happened to save Allen on the ne, so I approached him and asked him to take us to the ind,” Natalie said briefly.


    “You have already gone to the ind, and Allen has returned to his country. He still has a fiancee. You shouldn’t have contacted him after,” Jasper said in a low voice.


    Natalie lowered her eyes and said, “I’m a little sleepy, I’ll sleep first.”


    She closed her eyes.


    Jasper did not speak again.


    She turned her back to him.


    Things had already gotten to this point between her and Jasper. She couldn’t let Allen wait for her in vain, but she still needed Allen’s help.


    She thought that she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep tonight.However, she did not expect that the next moment she opened her eyes was when someone had opened the door.


    “Hey, why are you sleeping here?” The cleaner shouted.


    Natalie remembered what she had donest night with Jasper. Her face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed. It was obvious that the cleaner knew what had happened.


    Jasper took out 100 dors from his wallet and handed it to the cleaner, “We wereidentallylocked on the rooftop yesterday. Don’t tell anyone.”


    “Oh,” The cleaner took the money and agreed without hesitation.


    Jasper pulled Natalie up, held her hand, and walked towards the exit.


    Natalie withdrew her hand defensively.


    Jasper nced at her, “It’s still early, and I guess Stephen hasn’t got up yet. I’ll book a room here, you can rest inside for a while. I’ll go out and buy some clothes for youter.”


    “It’s so early and the mall has not opened yet. I’ll head back first. I have to pack asI’m returning to the country after the negotiation tomorrow,” Natalie said with her head lowered.


    “You’d better rest. You got up early yesterday morning to send Eli off, and you slept sotest night. Look at you, there are dark circles on your face. Moreover, if Aneira calls Stephen, he would definitely take you there immediately. If you go back to the manor, he may have to wait for you for a few hours. It’s not proper to let Aneira wait,” Jasper said softly.


    Natalie couldn’t change his mind, “I’ll book my own room then.”


    Jasper did not force her.


    When Natalie was booking a room at the reception, her mobile phone rang. She took it out and looked at the screen.It was a message from the bank, notifying her that her ount had just received 10 million dors.


    Jasper also texted her, “If it’s not enough, you can ask for more from me.”


    Natalie was silent for a moment.


    “I have enough, and it’s not proper for me to take your money. I’ll give it back to you when I get back,” Natalie replied to Jasper.


    “How much savings does a teacher of an orphanage have? The rooms here cost at least 3000 dors. Where did you get so much money?” Jasper replied to her text immediately.


    Natalie pursed her lips and looked at Jasper.


    He put away his phone and looked at her.


    Natalie lowered her head and sent a text message, “I won more than one million dors from Frederick during the card gamest time. It is enough for me to use for a lifetime.”


    “I’ll just leave the money with you. Keep it for me, and give it to me when I need it.” Jasper replied and added, “Let’s stop talking about this. I’ll go out to buy some clothes for you.”


    “I’ll buy it myself. You don’t know what I like.” Natalie sent the text messagequickly. Jasper had already left.


    She didn’t know what to say.


    Natalie went to the room to take a hot bath and put on the hotel bathrobe for the time being. Shey in bed and took a nap.


    She didn’t know how long she had slept. She was awakened by the ringtone of her mobile phone. She took out the phone from her bag. When she saw it was the call from Stephen, she answered it immediately.


    “Sorry, I was afraid that the stinking woman would disturb mest night, so I turned my phone off deliberately. Did you call me to discuss the cooperation?” Stephen said with a smile.


    “Er…” Natalie didn’t know what to say and she simply answered with a dryugh.


    She had called himst night, intending to ask him to open the door on the rooftop. Now, they had alreadye down from the rooftop. She felt guilty if others knew that she spent the whole night with Jasper on the rooftop.


    “Don’t worry about that. I’ve told Jasper before that I’ll take you with me when I paint for her. Have youpleted your proposal?” Stephen asked.


    “My business proposal, you mean?” Natalie hesitated.


    “Haha, I get it, only businessmen will know. You can ask Jasper when you have time, he should know. You should prepare early, Aneira is a picky person. That’s all for now. I’ll have breakfast first. I’ll call you once she calls me,” After saying that, Stephen hung up the phone directly.


    Natalie nced at the time. It was already eleven o’clock.


    Stephen usually had breakfastter than others.


    She called Jasper.


    “Are you up?” Jasper asked.


    “Yeah, do you know anything about the proposal?” Natalie asked.


    “Come and open the door,” Jasper said.


    Natalie’s heart trembled. She got out of bed and wore the hotel’s disposable slippers. She walked to the door and looked out from the peephole. Jasper was standing at her door.


    She opened the door in surprise.


    Jasper was holding several shopping bags in different sizes.


    “Have you been here for a long time?” Natalie asked softly.


    “No, I just arrived,” Jasper said in a low voice. Then, he walked in and put all the bags on the sofa and looked back at her.


    Natalie realized that she was still wearing a hotel bathrobe and nothing inside. She tidied up her clothes awkwardly.


    “I’ve already made the proposal. Change your clothes first, and I’ll take you out for breakfast,” Jasper said. He sat down on the sofa, took out a stack of paper from one of the bags, and put it on the tea table.


    Natalie picked it up and flipped it. It contained mostly professional jargon of the jewelry business, and she couldn’t understand it. What she could understand wereonlysome tables and data. She asked, “After deducting the cost, the profit will be split into half and half. Have you discussed this with Sean?”


    “Yeah.”


    “If Aneira doesn’t agree, will there be any concessions?”


    “No.” Jasper nced at her, “Aren’t you going to change your clothes?”


    “Oh, right,” Natalie was embarrassed. She brushed the hair by her ear and picked up the clothes on the sofa. Then, she went into the bathroom and locked the doordeliberately.


    Jasper was silent for a moment.


    He stepped forward and knocked on the door.


    Natalie opened the door, poked her head out, and asked cautiously, “Yes?”
