Chapter 90 Together, With Him
“You just need to tell me whether it’s true or not!” Simon Davis was very serious.
“It wasn’t me.” Jasper Milton said firmly, looking ahead sharply.
“Come to my place,” Simon said curtly and hung up the phone.
Jasper looked at Stella Grace.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Stella did not know how to face him and turned her back to him.
He held her chin, let her faced him, and kissed her lips.
Stella wanted to push his chest away.
He released her as she wished, and his eyes were as deep as black obsidian. “Don’t leave me.”
Stella’s heart tightened.
He said it as a statement and not a request. It was a command.
However, she felt that he was pleading for her.
Was she wrong?
As the military chief, he was fierce and ruthless, it was impossible for him to plead her for anything
“I have something to rush to now. I’ll help you get a taxi.” Jasper got out of the car and stopped a taxi.
Stella got in the taxi.
Jasper gave 100 dollars to the driver of the taxi and ordered, “Skies Apartment.”
Stella’s heart was in a mess.
She was not a person who was easily blinded by love.
She asked herself.
“What do I have?”
Yes, she had a relatively good figure, and she was rather a pretty woman, but there were a lot of women like her.
She was not a kind person. Her words were always harsh, cold, and indifferent. Jasper had no reason to offend everyone for her.
She did not believe how much love he could have had for her, all within the short month.
Without realizing it, she had arrived at home.
“Stella, have you heard that our State Mayor has been assassinated? Our hospital is the closest hospital to the place where he was attacked, so he was sent to our hospital for an emergency rescue. We failed and so, he died.” Eli Wayne said casually, she was eating some potato chips.
Stella glanced at Eli and was about to say something, but she stopped and sat on the sofa instead.
Eli sat opposite Stella and guessed, “He was attacked at the police station. Perhaps he was involved in bribery or knew some powerful persons secrets. So he was murdered.”
“You’re so nosy! So you must have heard the gossip that Jasper is going to get married?” Stella asked.
Eli was startled by the news. She put down the packet of chips in shock. “Jasper is going to get married?”
Stella looked at Eli seriously. ” Eli, I’m asking you. Answer me honestly. Do you think Jasper is really in love with me? Or do you think he is fooling me?”
“Do you really want to hear it from the bottom of my heart?” Eli was a little embarrassed.
“Of course,” Stella said firmly.
“First of all, I recently enquired about Jasper, from my father.
His reputation is very good. Apart from the fact that he had a girlfriend five years ago, who died on a mission, he has always been pure of heart. There was never a scandal about him.
Secondly, he is very responsible, righteous, and loyal. Since you two have had sex, he would definitely be responsible for you.
Thirdly, what do you mean he’s getting married? Do you think there’s something else behind this?” Eli guessed.
“And so what if I think so?” Stella asked, lowering her eyes.
“Well, I think that a vow to spend the rest of your lives together is the most sincere promise one can make. Although sometimes it’s hard to tell between good and bad in a short period of time, it’ll be a lifetime regret if we don’t try.” Eli looked at Stella’s face and said.
“Perhaps many mistresses had always thought of themselves as the man’s true love, so they went ahead to cause another woman’s tragedy,” Stella said rationally.
“Isn’t Jasper still unmarried? If it were me, I would go through everything with him. If he gets married, then only will I give up forever.”
Eli’s words touched Stella to the core.
Stella did like Jasper, and perhaps she fancied him more than he liked her.
She wanted to work hard for him.
“I know what to do now.” Stella carried her bag out.
She originally wanted to go to the military region to wait for him, but she was afraid that he would get into trouble because of her.
She unblocked Jasper’s phone number and sent a message. “I want to meet you. Where is good?”
A short while later, Jasper sent her a text message.
“Go to the basement parking lot, C-10, at the Intercontinental Hotel now. Someone will pick you up.”
“Okay,” Stella answered, then took a deep breath and got in a taxi.
Jasper put away his phone and softened his eyes.
“Jasper, you must find out who killed State Mayor Cher. Otherwise, your Uncle Davis would think it was you who did it. Moreover, the wedding of you and Katty will be held as scheduled.” Steven Milton paced in the study room anxiously.
Jasper looked at his father, Steven, with a deep gaze. “Uncle Davis thinks that you did it, doesn’t he?”
“Bastard.” Steven slapped the table. “Will I do something so despicable?”
“Steven, how much do you think State Mayor Cher has told Zoah?” Jasper’s mother, Suzi Shine, piped up. She was a little worried.
“No matter how much I say, it doesn’t matter. As long as State Mayor Cher is dead, no one will discover the recording.” Steven breathed a sigh of relief.
“Do you think State Mayor Cher has told Zoah where the recording was?”
“State Mayor Cher was not stupid. If he had given out the recording’s location, he would die. He still wanted to use the recording to save his life. So, I’m sure that Zoah doesn’t know where the recording is now.” Steven was very confident.
“You really did not do it, didn’t you?” Suzi said doubtfully.
“Of course not. How could it be possible?” Steven opened his eyes wide and said with certainty.
“I’m afraid that they won’t agree.” Suzi sighed.
Jasper smiled and reasoned, “If I find out who the murderer is, you’ll give me permission me to marry Stella. What do you think?”
“What are you talking about? I have been wronged now, but you still want to marry that b*tch. That b*tch is Frederick’s ex-wife. I will be laughed at, and I won’t allow you to do that.” Steven said angrily.
Jasper stood up. “Then I have nothing to say. Anyway, I won’t marry Katty.”
“How dare you!” Steven said angrily.
Jasper turned around decisively.
Suzi frowned and grabbed Steven’s arm. “Okay, we’ll agree.”
“Why did you agree?” Steven was so angry, gnashing his teeth.
“What other options do we have?” Suzi smiled helplessly and looked at Jasper. “Find out who the murderer is, and we will agree with your marriage to Stella.”
Jasper’s mood, which had been gloomy for a few days, was finally uplifted. He smiled and said, “Before the engagement, I will give you a satisfactory answer.”
He turned around and left.
30 minutes later, he went to his hidden villa.
It was Stella who opened the door.
She didn’t say anything. He leaned over and kissed her excitedly. He spun and pushed her against the wall beside the door.
Kisses filled the air around them.
He panted, and his breath became heavier.
His kissing was so aggressive that Stella was almost out of breath from it.
She didn’t know what had happened to him.
However, he was determined to have her, which moved her.
Jasper continued to kiss her while taking off her clothes…
