“Jasper!” “You’re shameless!”“Jasper!” ......Jasper seemed to be losing his composure. Both of them were emotionally out of control. When they went back home, it was already very late. Jasper carried Summer into the bathroom. Summer was exhausted and had fallen asleep. She did not want to move at all. “Don’t touch me!” Summer dazedly pushed Jasper away and was disgusted at him. Jasper smiled and tapped on the tip of Summer’s nose. Summer flipped over in the bathtub and almost drowned herself. Jasper immediately pulled her out. Fear sprung in his heart, and he hugged her tightly. He wondered why Summer could drown herself when he was just going to get her a towel. “Cough! Cough! Cough!” After choking on the water, Summer woke up. She lay on Jasper’s body for a long time without saying anything. “Ivy and you are a good match.” After a long silence, Summer said softly. Jasper’s hands that were wiping Summer’s hair stiffened for a moment. ‘She was gloomy for the w
Holding Summer who had fallen asleep in his arms, Jasper sighed and fell asleep soundly. Time passed quickly, and Summer did not create any trouble within this period of time. “It’s been almost two months. Are you living happily with Jasper now?” Henri had asked Summer out. He asked with a smile.“I don’t mind if you go and live together with him as well.” Summer rolled her eyes at Henri. “The things that happened to Hampton Foods Company are a huge problem for Miller Corporation, and Jasper is very busy too. Do you still dare talk about this? Ever since that day, I can’t enter his office anymore!”Jasper should be wary of her. That was why he did not allow her to enter the office. “He ordered a ban?” Henri smiled and asked. “He did not say that straightforwardly.” Summer propped her chin resentfully. ‘Jasper must be tired of me. He did not come back home for a long time.’“Then you should go over. Why don’t you go over? Your husband is so busy, so can’t you go over and send
On the phone, Summer yelled with a quivering voice. Jasper was flabbergasted. ‘She’s been fine these few days, right? Why is she angry again?’ “What happened?”“We will get a divorce tomorrow! We must go and get a divorce!” Summer sat on the ground floor of Miller Corporation. Her vision started turning dark. Just now, the security guards had pushed her maliciously. Suddenly, her vision became dark, and she fell to the floor. She felt that there was something wrong with her recently. She had no appetite and was nauseous. She grimaced as she looked at her red and swollen elbows and knees, Summer was aggrieved and hugged her legs tightly. She was not sure why, but she wanted to see Jasper badly. The tacos had spilled all over. Summer made those tacos by herself, and they were filled with pinto beans that Jasper loved.Tears flowed out uncontrollably from her eyes. She could already guess that Jasper had an affair with Ivy, but she did not expect he would find a new targe
At Miller Corporation...After explaining the situation, Ivy left with the assistant. Jasper sat beside the window and rubbed his brow. Finally, he had some quiet time now. He kept thinking about how Summer had said she wanted a divorce. His heart was trembling. He was scared. He was truly scared. If Summer meant it, he did not know how he should persuade her to stay. Recently, he was truly exhausted. He did not expect Summer to understand him. He just wanted Summer not to create messes. He was worried that he did not have any more energy to take care of her. “Chairman Miller? Have you gotten your lunch?” Veronica knocked on the door and asked timidly.“Not yet. What is it?” Jasper asked in a rather good-natured way. “I saw Ms. Plath on the ground floor. She seemed to be injured, and she threw these tacos into the waste bin. Although they’re damaged, I think it’s a bit of a waste...,” Veronica whispered. She felt nervous. She turned and wanted to leave. “Who did you
Jasper did not expose Summer. He carried her back to the company gloomily and went to the front desk. “Now that you’re working at Miller Corporation, put some effort into being familiar with everyone here, especially the chairman's family members.”The receptionists stood up in horror and looked at Summer, who was in Jasper’s arms. ‘Isn’t she the lady that came in without making an appointment?’‘But Miss Ivy said that she doesn’t know her…’“Chairman Miller, we’ve no idea that this lady is your family member…” The receptionists were dumbfounded. “This is my wife, remember that.” Jasper introduced Summer again. Summer listened to all this in silence calmly. ‘Wife? This is such an insult.’Clearly, the receptionists thought that Jasper and Ivy were a perfect match.“I’m… I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Mrs. Miller…”Summer gave them a glance but did not blame them. Jasper carried Summer to his office. He noticed that Ivy was waiting for him there. “Jasper, why didn’t you turn off
“Sapphire, what happened?”Summer was still a little absent-minded even after she reached home.Stephen looked at Summer scrupulously. He then gave her a cup of water. “Here, drink some water.”“Sapphire, does it hurt? Huff, huff…” Stephen looked at Summer nervously. He tried to blow on Summer’s wound. Summer looked up anxiously as she inhaled. “I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt. Why are you still awake?”For the first time, Summer was being gentle with Stephen. Stephen was stunned for a moment. ‘She doesn’t hate me anymore?’“Don’t go.” He stood up and pulled Jasper’s leg. No matter what, Stephen did not let Jasper go out. Jasper ruffled Stephen’s hair. Stephen gritted his teeth. “Am I a puppy to you?”“What is it now?” Jasper chuckled. “Don’t go. Sapphire is injured!” Stephen was angry.Jasper looked at his phone. Ivy called him and said that they had an appointment with a superior. That person was someone whom David really could not handle. Besides being a powerful person,
Summer made some tacos because Jasper was craving them. There were still some fillings left from noon.She would soon extricate herself from his clutches anyway and be completely free when she handed the USB drive to Henri.“Sapphire, are you cooking dinner?” Stephen stayed close, afraid that something might happen to her. Summer nodded. She treated Stephen better when Jasper was not around. She did not have to put up a show anymore after all. “Yes, want to have some tacos first?”“Yes, please.” Stephen sat beside her as he watched Summer make some tacos. He did not interrupt her. “Sapphire, it’s impressive that you can make tacos.” From as far as Stephen could recall, Summer never knew how to make anything when she was in Country M. “I learned it because… Jasper likes it. I know how to make cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff, and a lot more dishes because he likes them…” Summer murmured with a smile.Back then, she did not love herself at all. Jasper came back home exactly at
“If they successfully win you over, Henri doesn't need to take action anymore. Don’t forget what Henri does. If he were to make a move on you, he’ll attack you psychologically. He might indirectly insinuate you to attack the Miller family and Jasper.”Ace narrowed his eyes. ‘This man is capable of doing it.’Benjamin became extremely wary. He must not take his enemy lightly. “You need to remember this, he’ll find your weakness, your Achilles’ heel. No matter if it's about your mother, the Miller family, or Aaron, do not listen to anything that he says to you. …… Summer was not able to sleep at all last night at the Miller’s mansion. She was worried that she might be pregnant. Luckily Jasper thought that the zucchini noodles upset her stomach. He spent the night nagging that she should stop eating junk food… Summer was a little melancholy and did not know how to express her feelings.The next morning, Summer hurriedly went to a drugstore to buy a pregnancy test as soon as J
“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.
