In her panic, Imogen placed her hands on Jasper's chest to create some distance between them.

His lips were moving, slightly parted, as if he wanted to deepen the kiss.

She felt overwhelmed and unable to calm her racing heart. Suddenly, she pushed him away.

Jasper was pushed to lean back against the sofa. He was a bit disappointed as he gazed at her.

Imogen flushed as she panted slightly. She took deep breaths before shyly saying, "I kissed you sincerely."

Jasper gave a bitter smile and nodded.

The kiss had been no more than a polite peck. His disappointment stemmed from her pushing him away.

Imogen asked, "So, you won't report me?"

Jasper replied, "Yes."

"Thank you," Imogen replied before hastily getting off the sofa. With her face flushed, she grabbed her laptop and awkwardly rushed to the second floor. She acted as if she wanted to flee the scene.

Jasper was panting while he was leaning back on the sofa, so he took deep breaths. He stared out the window, trying to calm his

    Imogen awkwardly tried to come up with excuses.However, Jasper still felt uneasy. He returned to his room to grab his pillow and blanket before heading straight to Imogen's room.Seeing him come into her room to sleep, Imogen panicked. She asked, "You're going to sleep with me?"Jasper put down his pillow before lying on her bed and covering himself with the blanket. His movements were fluid and calm, though his heart was racing.Jasper said, "Until you submit your work, I'll be sleeping with you."Imogen blinked, looking at him. She felt nervous for some reason.Despite having a shared bed for a few days before, Jasper had shown no interest in her, so she had no expectations now.Sometimes, she wondered if she had married a gay man.After lying there for a while, Jasper opened his eyes to see Imogen sitting upright. He asked curiously, "Why aren't you sleeping?""Oh," Imogen blurted out as she snapped out of her thoughts. She quickly lay down and covered herself with the bla

    That girl was really beautiful.Feeling down, Imogen sipped her tea dejectedly as she slowly walked toward the subway entrance.At 6:30 pm, Jasper arrived home right on time.As he changed his shoes at the door, he couldn't help but look toward the living room because he couldn't wait to see her. Not seeing her, he called out, "Imogen."There was no response.After changing his shoes, he carried two bags of fruit into the house.Imogen was sitting at the dining table, dinner already prepared for him.Jasper walked in with a gentle smile, and his gaze was filled with affection. He placed the fruit on the table and said, "Imogen, I bought your favorite fruit."Imogen replied politely, "Thank you."Jasper took off his suit jacket and sat across from her. He noticed her unusual expression.With a somber face, Imogen ladled a bowl of soup for him. She said, "Have some soup. I made it especially for you."Jasper asked gently, "What's wrong? You seem upset today. Is it because of y

    Imogen's question left Jasper stunned.He hadn't expected her to be so straightforward, even though her face was flushed red. Her gaze remained steady, and she quietly looked into his eyes as she urgently sought an answer.Jasper felt his mouth go dry, so he picked up the glass on the table and took a sip of water to moisten his throat. He couldn't help but look away to avoid her gaze.Imogen continued to ask, "Do you have feelings for someone else, or is there something you can't tell me?"Feeling nervous, Jasper blurted out, "No, there's no other woman."Imogen let out a sigh of relief, feeling slightly reassured. She slowly said, "So, there's something you can't tell me?"Jasper pondered for a moment, torn about whether he should be honest now. From Imogen's casual mention of divorce, it seemed he wasn't that important to her."Imogen, if I lied to you, what would you do?" Jasper asked cautiously.Imogen's calmed heart immediately sank. She stared at him in shock.So, he ha

    Jasper held his other hand against the wall, contemplating for a moment. Then he raised his eyes to meet Imogen's gaze. Breathing heavily, he continued to argue, "Imogen, I didn't lie to you.""Are you sure?" Imogen asked as she narrowed her eyes in confusion.Jasper gulped, feeling guilty. He liked Imogen so much that he couldn't accept the idea of divorce.He braced himself and said with a guilty conscience, "Yes, I'm sure. I didn't lie—"He didn't finish his sentence.Suddenly, Imogen placed her hands around his neck. She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.The unexpected kiss left Jasper shocked and immobile. With his pupils dilated slightly, he blinked.His breathing became erratic, his heart rate quickened, and his body stiffened.As he tasted the sweetness of her lips, he could no longer suppress his desire. He placed his hands on her waist, pressing her soft and curvy body against the wall.He wasn't satisfied with just kissing, so he slightly opened his mouth

    In the end, Imogen obediently went back to the dining table. She pulled out a chair and sat down. After grabbing a hot cross bun, she angrily stuffed it into her mouth.Seeing her finally give in, Jasper smiled. He walked over and sat down across from her.Imogen's cheeks were still flushed with embarrassment. She looked at Jasper's handsome face and muscular body. Combined with his good-natured, gentle, and considerate personality, she felt heartbroken and regretted knowing he was gay.No, she couldn't give up on Jasper just like that. She wanted to make him stir for a woman.After making up her mind, she felt better.As Jasper ate elegantly, he asked in a gentle tone, "Where are you going later?""The job market.""I'll take you there.""It's okay, you should go to work.""Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry."Imogen was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Jay, where do you work?"Jasper paused and fell silent.Mustering her courage, Imogen asked, "Can I visit your workp

    Imogen was sitting in the corner of a convenience store. She suddenly received a phone call while eating a cheap fast food meal.The person on the other end said, "Hello, Ms. Kingsley. I'm the HR manager from Star Enterprise. Our aerospace R&D department would like to offer you a position. Would you…"Before the caller could finish, Imogen hung up. She put down her phone and muttered to herself, "Are scammers so clueless nowadays? They don't even do a background check before trying to scam people?"She continued eating. The phone rang again.Imogen sighed deeply. She picked up the call and put the phone to her ear. She said impatiently, "Star Enterprise, right?""Yes, Ms. Kingsley. Why did you hang up? I wasn't finished speaking.""If you're going to scam people, at least be believable. I never applied for a position in Star Enterprise. Also, with my qualifications, I wouldn't even be qualified. You're telling me the aerospace R&D department wants to hire me? Even a fool wouldn

    Since Imogen had moved on, there was no need to avoid Ethan anymore.She answered the call and put the phone to her ear."Hello."Ethan said with a displeased voice, "Imogen, where did you move to? Your parents said you left with that guy?"Imogen replied, "He's my husband, not 'that guy.'""Where are you?""That's none of your business.""Imogen!" Ethan shouted. She knew he was angry from listening to his voice. She found it ridiculous, so she replied, "Ethan, I'm married now. It's normal for me to live with my husband. I don't owe you an explanation about where I am."Ethan said earnestly, "Imogen, you know I'm worried about you. How long have you known this stranger before marrying him? Do you know his personality? Do you really know what kind of person he is? What if he mistreats you?"Imogen was speechless.She surpassed her emotions as she said clearly, "Hey, you're my childhood friend, so I still consider you a friend, but that's all you are.

    Jasper became concerned as Imogen placed her hand over her heart. He asked, "Are you experiencing any chest pains? Have you consulted a doctor? I can take you for a check-up."Imogen reassured him, gently holding his arm. "Jasper, I'm fine. I'm just trying to figure out how to balance my future family and career."Jasper smiled knowingly, gently patting her head before pulling her into an embrace. He recognized her uniqueness—her drive to pursue her career and showcase her skills and talents. The thought of being a stay-at-home mother or merely a trophy wife held no appeal for her whatsoever.Holding her close, Jasper murmured, "Imogen, have you forgotten about your husband's financial prowess?"Imogen couldn't suppress a chuckle.Jasper reassured her of his commitment, "As long as you're on board, I can arrange a driver to drive you to work, an assistant to handle all your tasks, and you won't have to worry about anything.

During her travels, she started noticing subtle changes in her body—nausea, fatigue, and a stronger need for rest.

They had just returned from their trip as well, bringing back gifts.

    Jasper thought the idea was brilliant and agreed, "Let's plan our route and leave next week."Imogen gently pushed him back, her hands on his chest. "Sure, but let me get up first. We'll map out our journey, set a schedule, and go on a trip for our wedding."Jasper took her wrists and lifted them above the pillow. "Let's discuss this tomorrow. I have some pressing matters to attend to at the moment."Imogen was about to respond when Jasper leaned in and kissed her deeply. Their lips intertwined with passion.…A week later, Imogen received another call from Yulia's lawyer, who conveyed Yulia's apologies and expressed her desire for Imogen's forgiveness. Yulia also requested Imogen to intervene with Nathan on her behalf.Imogen decided to ignore the request. She believed in the fairness of the law. It reminded her of Zoey, who had fraudulently claimed her degree and ended up in prison at Jasper's behest.As for Yulia, she had orchestrated attacks on Gregory, caused Carol to lose

    Imogen's heart raced as she slowly hugged Jasper, her voice bashful yet resolute. "Jasper, you'll always have a place in my heart."Jasper tensed slightly, his senses on high alert. He met her eyes. A glint of anticipation sparked in his gaze as he eagerly murmured, "Say it one more time. Say it—""I love you, Jasper," Imogen said gently.Jasper's eyes immediately filled with tears as he held Imogen tightly, his body shaking. Overwhelmed by emotion, he could only whisper her name into her ear. "Imogen… Imogen…""Do you love me?" Imogen asked, her voice tinged with shyness.Jasper frowned. "I do love you. Haven't you always known?""I still want to hear it," Imogen said."I love you. I love you with all my heart," Jasper declared, gazing at her with intense passion and unwavering resolve.Feeling a bit stiff from his tight hug, Imogen gently pushed him away. "I love you, too, but I must get up and go to work.""Not today," Jasper responded, scooping and carrying her back to bed

    "If it's a gift, why not accept it?" Mila whispered.Gregory quickly took the check, looking unsure of his next move.Once his money was accepted, Oakley assumed the issue was settled. He took Yulia's hand and began to leave the ward, saying, "Well, I'll leave with Yulia for now."Still feeling resentful, Yulia glanced back and shot Imogen a glare as they departed.The ward fell silent. Feeling uneasy, Gregory and Carol exchanged anxious glances."Nate, we can't go easy on them," Mila whispered.Nathan smiled knowingly. He took Mila's hand, gently caressed it, and said quietly, "Don't worry. I'll ensure our in-laws get the justice they deserve."Mila nodded, feeling reassured. Gregory and Carol, who were listening nearby, felt deeply moved and grateful.Since Gregory was injured and confined to bed, the meeting between Jasper's and Imogen's parents ended earlier than expected. After saying goodbye to their parents, Jasper and Imogen headed home. On their way home, Jasper felt

    Yulia was renowned for her boldness and strong-willed nature. Aware of Oakley's wealth, influence, and dual reputation in legal and illicit circles, she feared no one and held a contemptuous attitude toward others, including senior military figures."You need to apologize to Ms. Imogen immediately," Oakley whispered urgently.Pointing at Imogen, Yulia muttered irritably, "Her? Oh, please! If anyone owes an apology, it's her to me."Oakley wiped his forehead nervously, trembling with anxiety. Everyone's expressions around them darkened visibly. Jasper suppressed his anger; his hands clenched into fists.Before he could speak, Yulia grumbled, "Jay, you blocked me before understanding everything, and then you terminated our contract. That's just too much."Mila couldn't shake her worry for Jasper. If he couldn't manage his relationship with Yulia appropriately, it could severely impact his marriage. Concerned that he might not handle it well, Mila intervened. "Ms. Gibson, please resp

    Carol no longer believed the portrayal of wealthy women on television.Jasper took Imogen's hand, and they sat down on the couch together, feeling anxious. It was their parents' first meeting, and the hospital setting added to the tension. If things went wrong and their relationship soured, their future would look bleak.Imogen was particularly anxious. Her palms were growing clammy. Jasper pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her palms before reassuringly saying, "There's no need to be nervous. My parents are easygoing."Offering an awkward smile, Imogen teased him, whispering, "You seem more nervous than I am, don't you think?"Jasper chuckled but offered no reply. Dealing with Gregory and Carol was sure to be a bit daunting.Typically reserved around strangers, Nathan found it difficult to start a conversation at that moment. Meanwhile, Gregory and Carol felt apprehensive and cautious, worried that any misstep could upset the Morrisons and cause problems for Imogen.Sensing th

    Mila approached them with a bouquet, smiling. "Yes, we're in the right place. We've come to visit you, our in-laws."The term "in-laws" caught Gregory off guard as he lay in the bed. Despite his injuries, he quickly propped himself up, struggling to sit upright. Carol, equally surprised, cautiously accepted the gift from Nathan's outstretched hands.Jasper and Imogen took the next elevator, so they hadn't reached the ward yet.Nathan quickly set his things down and hurried over, gently placing a reassuring hand on Gregory's shoulder. "You're injured. Don't get up. Just lie down and rest.""General Morrison, I…" Gregory's voice faltered in distress.Carol's hands trembled uncontrollably as she glanced nervously at Mila, worried that Mila and Nathan had overheard her argument with Gregory.Nathan spoke in a gentle tone, "Please, don't call me General Morrison. It sounds too formal. You both are older than me. Just call me Nathan, and I'll call you two by name in return."Mila came

    In the hospital ward, Gregory had been asleep for over an hour when the nurse woke him to change his medication.After the change, Carol peeled an orange for him to eat. They shared the segments, chatting idly."Imogen really picked a good husband. Even these oranges he bought are unusually sweet," Carol said, marveling at the oranges. Gregory glanced at the orange and said, "They must be expensive.""Yes, they're sold by the piece in big supermarkets. Also, they're more expensive than beef and lamb," Carol said before eating another sweet segment.Gregory pondered for a moment. Then he curiously asked, "Someone ruined our house's floor. Do you think Jasper would help us repair it?"Carol shot him a look and replied, "Listen, don't burden Imogen with this. Don't even bring it up.""Why would it burden Imogen? With Jasper's wealth, this is nothing.""Enough," Carol snapped. "That's his business. No matter how poor we are, we shouldn't ask for what isn't ours." "You're too stu
