Jasper shook his head and said softly, “We can’t be together again.”
Penelope took a piece of tissue to wipe the corner of her eyes before she said, “You don’t have to
remind me, nor will I entertain those unrealistic delusions again.”
“What business are you doing now? If possible, there might be a chance for a partnership.”
Considering Jasper’s status and wealth in Southeast Province, the man was evidently trying to help
Penelope.
Any businessperson within Southeast Province knew that partnering with JW company would lead to
very healthy profits. It would be difficult not to make any money with JW.
“I mainly import clothing and make up from Harbor City,” Penelope replied honestly.
“Harbor City?” Jasper arched his brow slightly.
He was rather surprised that Penelope had contacts in Harbor City.
Penelope looked at Jasper sincerely and mustered the courage to say, “Someone took the initiative to
contact me. They gave me funds and a team, basically set up an entire company and gave it to me to
manage for free.”
“I did not know that such saints existed in this world.” Jasper narrowed his eyes. The situation felt
peculiar to him, while Penelope also looked like she had more to say.
“They only had one request, and that was to approach you and gain your trust,” Penelope said
suddenly, as if letting go of all inhibitions.
Jasper’s expression was solemn and unfazed.
“I don’t know what exactly I’m supposed to do after gaining your trust, but they weren’t too strict with
me either. They even let me get close to you slowly, but I can’t but help think that they’re targeting you.
You have to be careful.”
Penelope finished talking and suddenly got up to say, “I can’t stay here for long. You have to be careful,
Jasper. Especially of Mr. Atticus.”
Jasper looked at Penelope and suppressed the shock and anger he felt before asking, “Did it occur to
you that these people won’t let you go after you tell me all this?”
Penelope chuckled wryly and replied, “But so what? Worse come to worst, I’ll just return everything
they gave me. It was never mine to begin with anyway.”
“I originally thought that I’d be overjoyed after I became rich, I even thought that I’d do as they asked,
but I changed my mind just now, Jasper. You’re a good man, and you don’t deserve to be hurt by
horrible women like me.”
“I had all this coming.”
Penelope turned to leave after saying this.
Just as she grabbed the door handle, she heard Jasper speak up from behind.
“You can contact me if you need help.”
Penelope’s body froze and a flicker of joy flashed through her eyes. Then, she opened the room door
without looking back.
Just as Wendy returned.
“You’re leaving already?” Wendy asked in surprise.
Penelope forced a smile and replied, “Yeah. There’s nothing much for me to say anyway. Good…
goodbye.”
Penelope rushed away and Wendy returned to see Jasper with a solemn look on his face.
“What’s wrong? You just talked to your ex-lover for a bit and you look so solemn. Don’t tell me she gave
birth to your child without your knowledge,” Wendy joked.
“What is that nonsense?” Jasper glared at Wendy.
“I just realized how I’ve been underestimating how vile my enemies can be. I don’t think I’ll be able to
sleep peacefully at night if I don’t completely get rid of him.”
Jasper did not expect this move from Fabian at all. He naturally would not accept Penelope again since
that was unrealistic.
However, Fabian did not seem to care so much about that, since he invested in Penelope anyway.
This proved one point.
That Fabian was willing to do anything just to deal with Jasper, and that the man’s methods were cruel
and vile. This thought made Jasper lose his appetite. He stood up and said, “Wendy, let’s go back first.
I need to contact people in Harbor City.”
