Jasper remained silent, frowned, and looked at Summer. “So, when you lost your memories, we should get to know each other again?” Summer smiled in resignation. Then, she extended her hand to Jasper. “I’m Summer, the current chairman of Plath Corporation. Nice to meet you.” Jasper did not know what Summer was up to, but for some reason, he still shook hands with her. “Jasper, I plan to court you. I’ll give you one month for you to fall in love with me. If you still can’t forget Victoria after one month, let’s divorce then, how does this sound?” Summer looked at Jasper, but her palms were sweating. There were extreme differences in her personality. Sometimes, she was timid and sometimes, she was very stubborn. She had never tried to court anyone. But Jasper had lost his memories and only remembered that he brought her back home. That time, she had lost her memories... If she were given one more chance, what would she do if she did not lose her memories?She would probably try
In Sea City, Universal Movies was the easiest one to be obtained. Afterall, Rose could not touch SN Holding and Plath Corporation as of right now.If she did not sacrifice Cosmo, who else would she be able to attack?“Before I found you and promised you to get back the Universal Movies, I told you before that those who are too naïve cannot survive in this world.” Samson’s expression was dreary as he planned to drive away. “Samson! You—” Cosmo did not know what to say. Couldn’t Samson help him?Samson did not even stop and left straightaway.Cosmo’s eyes were bloodshot, and he felt like crying.This was the first time aside from the time he was humiliated by the Hamilton family that his dignity was trampled so much by someone else. It did not matter anyway. He was already used to it. In order to survive, he could even kneel down for Samson. But Samson was too aloof. Except for Summer, he would not help others without any reason. Cosmo hesitated for some time. Should he lo
“Uhm, Chairman Miller... I’m not interested in women. Please don’t look at me this way.” Victor felt his skin crawl as Jasper stared at him.“Of course I know that you’re not interested in women,” Jasper said coldly, “I’m afraid you’re interested in me.”“Pfft!” Aaron and Ivan coughed up water at the same time, and they nearly choked themselvesVictor was stunned and stood frozen in place.Summer looked at Victor in a daze. Victor had always had a wicked tongue, and he did not explain himself? Besides, it did seem like… something had happened between the two of them before. “Uhm, is there anything that I don’t know?” Summer asked awkwardly. “He’s a liar.” Without waiting for Victor to say something, Jasper said it first.Although he lost his memories, he still remembered Victor. After asking Carter, Jasper learned that Victor was a member of the Ross family in Country M!“Huh?” Summer was stunned. “You said that you’re a poor student and have no money to go to school. I let
Summer clenched her hands slowly and looked into Jasper’s eyes. “If you help me, you have nothing. If you don’t, you’ll lose me.”“Huh?” Jasper was amused. “Who gave you this confidence...? Do you think that your net worth is more than the average interest of the Ross family?”Summer clenched her hands and said slowly. “Fine, it’s your own choice. Don’t regret it.”Jasper glared at Summer. Was this woman trying to threaten him?She thought that she was great now, huh? He always wanted to bypass Plath Corporation and connect to the foreign companies. Working together with the Ross family was the best choice. In his current understanding and with the memories he had, he did not think that Summer was more valuable than these things.The atmosphere became strange. No one said anything else.Buzz! The phone rang. Jasper took a look and found out that it was Victoria. Victoria had stayed at Jasper’s mansion in West City for a few days. Jasper did not come back at all, so she bec
“He made his decision. He better not regret it.” Summer took a deep breath. Her legs felt a little weak. Victor looked at Summer and shook his head. It was not his place to talk about relationships. Jasper had clearly lost his memories, and Summer could have talked to him and let him make his own judgment. Instead, she chose to stay silent and let Jasper make the decision himself.If Jasper made the wrong decision, when he regained his memories, he would be… Jasper had left the apartment. A man walked out of the apartment’s elevator with his luggage, wearing a suit and a white coat. He raised his hand and adjusted his sunglasses, then walked forward with a broad smile. Ding dong!The doorbell rang. “Who are you?” Aaron opened the door and asked with a frown. ‘This man is wearing Sea City Hospital’s white coat. Is he Benjamin’s colleague?’“I’m looking for Benjamin. The hospital director said he’s here,” he said with a harmless smile. Aaron observed the man with a f
“Are you done?” Aaron was worried about Benjamin. He had a feeling that Benjamin was not in the right state of mind. He opened the door and protected Benjamin in his arms. “Who is he? What’s your relationship with him?”Ace observed Aaron and smiled a little. “Will you believe me if I say that I’m his ex-boyfriend?”“Ace!” Benjamin looked at Ace anxiously. ‘This guy is extremely dangerous. He can tell just what a person fears with just one glance.’Ace and he were just best friends. Back then, Benjamin only knew that he was not interested in women, which he thought was a psychological problem. He told Ace the reason because he trusted him, but Ace figured out his sexual orientation before he did. Benjamin himself did not even think that he would be involved with Aaron one day.“You bastard!” Aaron lost his composure a little. He swung his fist at Ace, but he easily caught it. Aaron frowned. Since he was a child, he would often fight in the streets. This was his first time meeti
At the apartment for medical professionals, Ace opened the balcony’s sliding door. He stretched out his arms and embraced the sunlight. “Rose, I’ve arrived.”“Ace, your method worked.” At the end of the line, Rose said with a smile. “Rose, Jasper is now amnesiac. His amnesia is categorized as traumatic amnesia instead of one caused by stimulation. From the beginning, you should stimulate him to remember the memories of his past continuously,” Ace sneered. ‘She has really been becoming really unprofessional.’“Yes, I’ve been negligent,” Rose chuckled. “What should I do next?”“I heard that Jasper was kidnapped when he was a child. He has a precedent of being triggered to lose his memories. He must have been deeply traumatized, that’s why he chose to forget… Go and investigate the scene where Victoria was kidnapped. We must ensure it is infinitesimally similar as the initial kidnapping scene.” Ace smiled. ‘Jasper… ‘I heard that he’s a rare genius in the business field.‘I’m not
It was a sin deep in Summer’s heart. If desire was the origin of sin, then she was the origin of sin derived from Summer's body.“Sum!” Benjamin rushed over nervously when he saw Summer was with Ace. He raised his hand and snatched the baby back. “Ace, you…”“Why are you so nervous? I am here to tell you guys something.” Ace was not wearing glasses. Benjamin blinked as he stared into his wickedly charming eyes. “I’m calling Jasper.” Summer turned away anxiously. She ran into her room and called Jasper. She was afraid that something would happen to him. But no matter how many times she called, Jasper would not answer. At four in the morning… “In one day, Miller Corporation changed its chairman and Jasper regained Miller Corporation as the top shareholder. Benjamin also gave his shares back to Jasper. I heard it was Marvin's idea.”Rose was staring out of Princecourt Hotel’s window coldly. She took her phone and called Marvin. “It’s been a while, Mr. Miller.”“Rose, sin
“I just find it hard to accept the truth. I don’t actually hate you…” After staying silent for a long time, Summer spoke again. “It was… too sudden for me. Give me some time to process this.”Mabel looked at her in shock and covered her mouth. “Sum…”Summer smiled at her and said, “Before I’m able to completely accept it, can I continue to call you Madam?”Mabel covered her mouth in panic and nodded vigorously. “Sure… Call me anything you want…”She actually never cared what Summer called her. It was good enough for her as long as she did not try to avoid her. “Can I hug you?” Summer took the initiative and stretched out her arms. Jasper had told Summer quite a lot about Mabel’s family. Her family was in a very scary place. They started falling into decadence in the later years. In fact, they started showing signs of having a lack of sons. Every leader of the family became anxious about who the next leader would be. They were so worried about who would be the head of the family
Without realizing it, Summer had subconsciously returned to the Miller family’s mansion. “Wifey…” Jasper rushed over to her, wanting to give her a surprise. But instead, she did not react. Her face looked pale too. “Wifey?” He panicked and knelt in front of her. “Sum…”He truly panicked this time. ‘Did she find out about something that I did in the past and is now mad at me?’“Jasper, do you care who my mother is?” Summer asked softly. His heart stopped beating for a second. He felt both distressed and relieved. “No, I don’t. I only care about you.”“Why do I care so much, then…” Summer smiled and hugged him tightly. “I shouldn’t care about it too…”“Everyone has something that they don’t have control over. Sum, go easy on yourself.”Summer lay on top of him, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and drank it.Jasper just realized that she smelled strongly of alcohol.“Sum…” He was a little worried. His heart ached for her too, but he also wanted to let her be.
Mabel was cooking in the kitchen of the Plath family's mansion. “Madam, stop cooking. Come and eat,” Summer called out to her softly. Mabel smiled at Summer as she emerged with her favorite dish, cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff.“Sum, let’s eat.” Mabel treated her really well. She helped her with the dishes.Summer was also already used to it. She no longer felt shy. It was natural to her already. Alaric looked at Summer and smiled plainly. “Sum, follow me.” After dinner was over, he asked her to go to the study room. “Is Jasper treating you well?” Alaric asked. “Yes, he’s treating me well.” She smiled. ‘If Jasper hadn't been busy and gone to Mountain City, he would be sticking around, bothering me.’“He pushed back too much work to get ready for the wedding. He wants to finish making work arrangements as soon as possible and go on a honeymoon with me.”“Sum, there’s something that I’ve been hiding from you. You’ve always wanted to know your biological mother, right?” A
“Mr. Jasper Miller, do you take Summer Plath as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“I do,” Jasper said the two words confidently.‘I’m willing to take care of her and be by her side forever.‘I’ll always love her.‘She’ll always be my number one.’“Ms. Summer Plath, do you take Jasper Miller as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“… I do.”She purposely hesitated for a long time. Jasper was so scared that his face turned pale.After she chuckled and said ‘I do’, he gritted his teeth, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her.He kissed Summer even before the officiant had asked him to kiss the bride.She was so embarrassed by the kiss that her ears turned red.“Jasper!”Jas
Benjamin rolled his eyes at Aaron. “I belong to the bride's side. You should go to Jasper’s side.”“He doesn’t deserve it,” Aaron said stubbornly.Summer covered her mouth and chuckled. Everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the wedding. ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we could stay this happy all the time?’“Hey, should we play a prank on the groom tomorrow? Let’s spice things up a little!” The bridesmaids started planning something.“You guys better be careful. You’re all pregnant. Don’t stir up too much chaos,” Summer said with a smile. “Seriously, it’s as they say: women always side with their husbands once they’re married. Look at you, you’re already siding with him.” A few of them teased Summer. Summer blushed so hard that she could not say anything in response. “Congratulations, Sum.”Hers and Jasper’s friends and relatives came one after another. All of them would be attending the wedding ceremony tomorrow afternoon. Edward would be there with Trent too.
After all, this matter was related to Edward’s mother because of her meeting with Hanna’s mother.She sat on the sofa and thought a lot. Would they get a divorce? Would Edward’s father hate her because of this?Edward sat on the sofa and quietly accompanied his mother. “About this matter... Let's not tell Jen first. She may not be able to handle it.”Edward’s mother nodded, in tears. Then, she shook her head. “It was all my fault.”Edward’s father finally came out of the study. Edward looked at his father nervously. He was afraid that his father would blame his mother.“I... I really did not know anything about it. I just thought she lived a difficult life. I felt guilty, so I asked someone to send her some money. I did not know what happened to her after that!” Edward’s mother panicked and started crying. Edward’s father walked to her side. He did not blame her, but passed her a tissue. “Is this how you should behave in front of your son? Stop crying.”Edward’s mother sobb
“I deserve it!”Nieva was brought away by the police. She should have expected that this was the consequence of offending Jasper.Jasper was busy with the wedding and he did not care much about her. Otherwise, she might have gone through worse than being arrested.…… At the Reeves family house in Mountain City...“Are you Hanna Delacruz? Let’s talk.”Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the study, leaving Edward and his mother in the living room.“Edward, I already know about the issue concerning your father.”“Mom...” Edward felt a little guilty. “I know about everything.” Edward’s mother shook her head. “This matter is related to your father and me. This is what owed Hanna’s mother, but if you two have to pay for our mistakes. We...”“Mom, this is no one’s fault.” Edward shook his head. In the study...Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the room. His expression was dreary. “Are you Venus’ daughter?”“Do you still remember my mother?” Hanna smiled and kept a stra
Samson nodded as he watched Rose leaving.Charlie ran out of the courtyard and stood still. He looked a little distressed.He was just a child...Perhaps it was because he had a mother who set up a scheme against him and used him as a chess piece that he was more mature than other children.In the past, he wanted to live. He wanted not just to live but to prevent his mother from setting up a scheme against him.He was still Rose’s son, even if Rose had used a despicable way to give birth to him.“Let’s go home...” Samson walked toward Charlie and rubbed his head.“Samson...” Charlie lifted his head, and his eyes were red.“From now on, you have not just me, but your friends, younger brothers and sisters, and many older brothers and sisters who love you.” Samson smiled at Charlie.Everyone could be redemption for other people, and other people could be their redemption, too.Charlie nodded and ran back to the Miller family’s mansion.Melody was carrying her grandchildren and
Jasper did not care whether Thomas intended to hurt Summer or not.As long as Summer was shocked, he would not allow it.“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you know Aiden, who is always with Thomas?” He was Summer’s childhood friend. Summer did not know that Aiden was secretly protecting her. He was seriously injured and almost lost his life many times because of Summer.”Jasper frowned. “Since he did not want to let Summer know about this, why is he making Summer more distressed?”Jasper admired Aiden a lot because he never showed his love for Summer, but he had silently done many things for Summer.“Jasper, you can just confess if you’re scared. You don’t have to put yourself in a higher status.” Keane rolled his eyes.“Fine, you will go to Country T for a business trip.” Jasper was threatening Keane.“Jasper, I’m sorry, it’s my fault...”…...The wedding was getting closer. Everyone was busy helping Jasper and Summer with their wedding.“Look at the dresses and gowns for my grandchildren.
