Jasper hugged Anna and danced to the rhythm of the music.
“Thank you.”
While dancing skillfully, Anna looked up a t Jasper’s face that was flickering in the light and said softly.
At this moment, her entire body had to turn into a pool of water, and she was melting onto Jasper.
Jasper looked down at Anna. Then, he
smiled and said, “It is my honor to be able
to do all of this for you.”
“Are you always so sweet?” Anna asked.
No matter how sweet I am, I still need someone willing to listen.”
After the song ended, Jasper pulled open the chair, helped Anna sit down, and then sat down opposite her.
“I made all these in the afternoon by myself. It may not be to your taste, but you must finish it. You have to eat it even i
f you don’t like it.”
Jasper said with a smile after he picked up his fork.
Anna could not help but reply, “Only you can come with something as unique as eating Somerland food in candlelight.”
“Both of us don’t like western food, and I don’t know how to make it either, so this will do.”
The two started chatting while eating.
Although they restrained themselves and did not touch certain sensitive topics, Anna could not endure it anymore halfway through the meal.
“When are you leaving?”
Jasper was taken aback. He replied, “I’ll stay for two more days.”
Anna shook her head and said softly, The United States doesn’t welcome you. After tomorrow, you should return home a s soon as possible.”
Jasper raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. “Do you think they’ll abduct me?”.
“Normal people won’t, but it’s hard to say
when it comes to the ones who are on the
same level as you in terms of power, status, and influence. Compared to being ridiculed by others, the United States cares more about how large the damage that a free and safe person like you will bring to them.”
Anna sighed again. Although she was studying fashion design here, she was no stranger to news about Jasper.
“I think that from the moment you landed in the United States, we have been heavily monitored by United States officials. If it weren’t for the fact that you look like you’re at a disadvantage on the stock market, I’m afraid you might have been asked to leave.
“Don’t underestimate the shamelessness of the United States government.”
Jasper nodded and said, “I know, I will consider it… What about you? When will you return home?”
“Next month is the opening ceremony of Paris Fashion Week. I need to go over to participate in a show. I will go back after this show is over. I might not return to the fashion design industry for a short
time after this because I’ve already achieved my goal.” Anna smiled lightly.
“Well, then we carr meet in Somerland in a month’s time.”
The two of them spent two hours on this
meal.
After eating, Jasper took Anna to wander around the villa.
They were either sitting and chatting or leaning against each other in the moonlight.
At this moment, no one or anything could
disturb them.
Time slowly approached midnight.
Anna also started to become nervous.
She knew that if Jasper prepared so much for her the day before her birthday, when midnight struck and her birthday officially arrived, Jasper would surely have a bigger surprise in store for her.
Sure enough, when it was almost time, Jasper took Anna to the top floor of the villa.
Beverly Hills was on the top of the
mountain. The villa that Jasper chose was right at the peak, so from here, one would have a complete overview of the entire city of Los Angeles.
