Everyone knew how much Karl loved Peace. Anna had been dubious about how much he cared for
Peace up until that point.
He turned out to be willing not only to care for Peace for months but also to fly with her to America for
treatment.
Anna knew that very few rich young men could do this. He did a lot for Peace even though they were
only dating,
If she were Peace, she didn’t think she could refuse him at this time.
Peace remained the same firm and sober woman, nevertheless. She rejected Karl once more, even
though he had said many heartfelt words, and she had tears in her eyes.
She said, “I can’t marry you, Karl. I’m so sorry.”
Karl was obviously at a loss when he heard this. His hand holding up the ring froze awkwardly, and he
wasn’t sure whether he should put it away or give it to her.
Even Anna could feel how embarrassed he was.
Peace inhaled deeply and spoke in an incredibly calm voice, “Actually, the fact that you are with me
right now makes me happy enough. But, I don’t even want you to travel with me to America. I have no
control over my life and have no idea what I’ll be like tomorrow. So, I don’t want you to marry me. You
don’t have to stick with me, Karl.”
Although Peace was extremely sensible, Anna felt sorry and bad for Karl after hearing her words.
Despite all of his attempts, Peace could still not truly trust Karl or devote herself to him.
Anna understood that since she was so disturbed, the two of them must also be experiencing more
intense feelings.
Karl put the ring in his pocket and whispered, “Ah, it’s okay, and I can wait for you. You can give me
your answer after you‘ve recovered, honey.”
Seeing this sad scene, almost everyone was overwhelmed with sorrow.
Meanwhile, Jasper was the only sensible one. He glanced at his watch and reminded them, “Okay, let’s
go to the security check.”
Jasper seemed remarkably composed amid all the people who had become sentimental because of
their love. His voice was also magically calming.
Anna shook Peace’s hand and said, “T’ll be there for you, honey, no matter what choice you make.
Well, just keep in mind that I want you to cherish life. You still have a lot of places to go and foods you
haven’t tried. You said you wanted to experience and try everything wonderful in this world. So, don’t
forget all that.”
“Okay, Anna, I know,” Peace answered with a nod.
She stopped talking because she was sure Karl would understand what she meant. Since time could
change everything, he would get what he wanted if he had strong faith.
“Well, I understand that.” Karl took Peace’s hand from Anna’s and replied.
He turned to face Jasper and said, “We’ll go through security now, I suppose. Do you have anything to
say to Anna?”
Then the two of them walked forward. Afterward, Jasper reached inside his jacket pocket and handed a
blue suede box to Anna, saying, “Here you go.”
Anna smiled and calmly took the box. When Wayne saw that, his expression immediately turned
somber,
Jasper looked at Anna and said, “Anna, I have a lot of things to deal with after I get back to New York.
So, I’m not sure when we’ll see each other again. Promise me that you’ll take care of yourself, okay?”
Anna nodded, “I will, so you don’t have to worry about me. You know, Tammy was supposed to see you
off here. But, she had to go to school.”
Jasper said with a calm gaze, “It’s okay, I’ll meet her again. Please call me as soon as possible if
Tammy gets ill again, Anna. My friend knows a doctor in America who should be able to treat her. Well,
I’ll take Tammy to America for a check-up when I next return.”
“Great!”
While talking, Wayne sullenly interrupted them by saying, “The plane is about to take off.”
Wayne was just a few feet away from Anna and standing very straight when she turned around. He
was lifting his wrist with his watch and looking at Jasper with an expressionless face.
Then he said, “You just kept pushing Karl to go. So, why don’t you go in a hurry?” Anna frowned.
Wayne, you had rarely said anything like that before, she thought.
“Thank you for the kind reminder, Mr. Wright. I advised them to take the plane quickly because I was
afraid of delaying their admission to the hospital. As you know, there are limited rooms in that
institution. And unlike them, I’m not in a hurry.”
Jasper’s expression was calm, patient, and starkly contrasted with Wayne’s anxiety. Wayne asked
somberly, “Oh, it seems you’re not going to go at all, are you?”
After realizing that he might be deliberately provoking Jasper, Anna frowned and asked, “Wayne, What
are you doing?”
“Oh, it’s fine, and I was just asking. Don’t get me wrong.” Wayne glanced at her and replied.
He tried not to become angry because he and Jasper had already been into a fight, and he had been
badly hurt.
Jasper appeared nice and at ease while grinning. He said with ease, “To be honest, I don’t want to
leave here because I haven’t had enough fun. Since returning here, I have been so preoccupied with
work that I haven’t even had time for Tammy. In addition,
haven’t helped Anna as much as I ought to with her business. Can you help her, please, for the sake of
Karl and Peace?”
Jasper’s words meant a lot. To Anna, Jasper was being polite and talking to Wayne as a courtesy.
But to Wayne, Jasper was challenging him. He asked Wayne to help Anna not “for the sake of them
having dated before” but “for the sake of Karl and Peace.”
So, he had clearly stated his attitude.
In fact, Jasper avoided the fact that Wayne and Anna had dated. Men could tell if they were in love with
the same woman at the same time just by looking at each other. Moreover,
Jasper had already said many things to show what he thought.
Wayne could feel that Jasper was being hostile toward him. So, he became even more irritated. He
gave Jasper a look that suggested he attempted to subdue Jasper with his imposing aura.
He said, “Well, let’s drop the past. I’ll take care of Anna even if it’s not for Karl and Peace’s sake, but for
Tammy’s and Matthew’s.”
Wayne promised he wouldn’t bring it up, but he soon did. Bedsides, he did it as a manner of retaliating
against Jasper’s hostility.
Jasper maintained his composure and remarked, “Actually, it’s not too difficult for the kids to get along
with their peers. Tammy has always been a cheerful girl, so it was easy for her to get along with
others.”
“Well, it’s mostly because my son is very fond of Anna.”
Anna couldn’t understand their words and then interrupted them by saying, “Come on, come on, stop
talking about kids. Jasper, stop it, will you? It’s time for you to go through security. If not, your plane
might take off without you.”
Jasper smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll go then.”
Anna waved at Jasper’s back and said, “Call me when you get off the plane!” In response, Jasper
waved at her.
Wayne frowned unhappily when he saw it. Then, seemingly indignant, he inquired, “Why should he do
that? You’re not his mother, Anna.”
Anna glanced at him and said calmly, “But I’m his wife.”
