Imogen bit her lower lip because she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to smack herself. The words she said just now were so ridiculous. Both of them fell silent as they were lost in their thoughts. The atmosphere in the room was very ambiguous.Jasper then turned off the light. As the room fell into darkness, their breathing became even and steady. Jasper clearly knew what Imogen was talking about earlier, but he pretended not to understand.This night was restless for both of them. The next morning, Imogen was =up before dawn to make breakfast. She ironed Jasper's suit and polished his shoes. After that, she prepared his lunchbox.When Jasper woke up, he didn't see Imogen in the room. Instead, he found his neatly ironed clothes hanging in an obvious spot, which made him feel touched.As he walked out of the room, he saw Imogen busying herself in the kitchen.After freshening up, he headed toward the kitchen. When he walked past the dining table, he noticed the simple, yet nutr

Imogen spent the whole day at the job market, submitting numerous resumes, but heard nothing back.She graduated from a technical college with a degree in "Aircraft Maintenance Engineering and Management", a highly specialized field that no companies seemed interested in.Her dream was to work in the aerospace industry, but her qualifications were not enough. She was stuck between aiming too high and settling too low.Just as she was about to give up and go back to running her online store, an old classmate called."Imogen, let's meet up. A bunch of our high school friends are having a reunion."Just as she was about to decline, the caller added, "A lot of our classmates have become big bosses. They're doing great."Imogen thought networking was crucial for finding a job, so maybe her classmates could help her out. After some consideration, she agreed.Several men and women were gathered in the luxurious hotel suite of Phoenicia Grand Hotel. As Imogen walked into the room, she w

"500. I'll give 500 too…"Suddenly, everyone eagerly took out their phones, ready to transfer the money to Imogen.Pulling her phone back, Imogen stood up and said, "You guys don't have to transfer anything. Your gift money can cover the cost of this meal."If it's not enough, whoever organized this gathering should make up the difference. I'm broke and can't pay a cent."With that, Imogen grabbed her bag and left. A few classmates panicked.Two female classmates who were somewhat closer to Imogen caught up with her in the hallway. They pulled her aside and said, "Imogen, the reunion isn't over yet. Leaving like this isn't appropriate."The other was defending Imogen. She said, "Scarlett did this on purpose. She's been targeting you all night. If you leave because you're humiliated by her, you're playing right into her hands.""Exactly. You shouldn't let them mock you like this."Imogen resigned. She said with a faint smile, "I appreciate your concern. Maybe I'm just not suitab

"Yeah. I had this wine stored here from a client event because we didn't finish it," Jasper said. Then, he picked up the wine in front of him. He glanced at it and set it down again.He continued, "I'm not used to this kind of wine."Devin sneered as he mocked, "You're not used to a wine that's worth 20 thousand? You must have had too much cider, right?"He thought Jasper was bluffing, so he was awaiting his downfall. Meanwhile, others were also snickering quietly. Just then, the hotel manager appeared, pushing a cart with a bottle of wine.With everyone's attention fixed on him, the manager carefully presented the bottle to Jasper.The manager asked, "Mr. Asher, shall I open it?" Jasper nodded. The manager expertly opened the bottle, creating a sense of ceremony. Everyone in the room was taken aback, staring wide-eyed at the bottle in the manager's hands.Imogen didn't drink alcohol and was unfamiliar with wine, so she didn't know its price. The only thing she knew was that th

Imogen knew that she was Jasper's wife, so holding hands with him was perfectly normal. Yet, she didn't understand why her heart was racing, leaving her flustered. She also instinctively pulled her hand away.To Jasper, her reaction was a blow to his pride. Jasper didn't say anything but slowly retracted his hand. He placed his hand on his thigh as he gazed out the window.Imogen lowered her head without saying anything because she was trying to calm her restless emotions.Back at home, Imogen walked in front of Jasper. After climbing to the eighth floor, they went inside the house to greet Imogen's parents.Imogen placed the bottle of wine in a corner before heading to her room.Jasper sat on the couch, loosened his tie, and watched Imogen move in and out of the room until she finally went into the bathroom to shower.Gregory walked out of his room in his pajamas."Dad," Jasper greeted politely as he sat up straight.Gregory sat down next to Jasper. He said, "You're back late
