Jasper’s unexpected movements caused Anna to unconsciously tense her body.
She tried instinctively to push Jasper away, but when she put her arms on Jasper’s chest, she realized that the little strength she had was not enough to push the man away.
Their warm breaths caused Anna to become even more flustered. Instinctively, she lowered her eyes and did not dare to make eye contact with Jasper.
“What, what are you doing? Let me go!”
Anna was mortified at how soft and tender her voice sounded.
It was supposed to be a strict statement, but it sounded weak and helpless when she said it. Conversely, it even sounded as if she was only pretending to resist.
“Are you scared?”
When he noticed the dramatic changes in Anna’s mood, Jasper leaned over slightly and chuckled as he whispered into Anna’s ear.
Anna felt Jasper’s warm breaths envelop her ear as he whispered.
The man’s burning aura made its way right into her ear.
When she felt his aura, Anna felt her limbs turn into jelly. There was no strength left in them.
Anna felt her heart racing as her entire body, particularly her face, turned warm. She did not need a mirror to know she was burning red.
Then, without knowing where she had gotten the courage from, Anna pushed Jasper away.
Jasper took two steps backward and smirked as he gazed at Anna.
The latter was panting as if she had suddenly gotten fresh oxygen again after being deprived of it.
Her cheeks were rosy, and her eyes reflected light like a lake at sunset.
She was so stunningly beautiful that the whole world stopped to look at her.
That was how Anna looked like now.
“Do you have a death wish?!” Anna glared at Jasper, but she knew she looked anything but threatening right now.
For some inexplicable reason, she had lost her dominating edge. Not only had Jasper managed to take advantage of that, but most importantly, she had failed to live up to her expectations.
He managed to break through all her defenses, and she was unable to even fight back.
It was a source of annoyance for Anna.
Anna turned and ran off after giving Jasper one last glare.
She seemed as if she were escaping from him.
Jasper watched her run off before he raised a hand to his nose. Hmm, her smell was still on it.
He had not suffered major losses this time!
He had to make sure the little vixen learned her lesson sometime soon.
Else, she was going to climb right over his head.
He could treat a woman with wholehearted kindness, but he would never be a lapdog.
That was Jasper’s motto. He had enough of being a lapdog in his past life. After being given a second chance at things after losing everything he had due to being a lapdog, Jasper was determined to never take the same path as in his past life.
…
It was not clear if it was because she was embarrassed or angry, but Anna refused to meet Jasper’s eyes even when it was time for her and her family to board the plane.
Jasper sighed as he watched the plane carrying the Law family soar into the clouds.
Regardless, matters at Swallow Capital had come to an end.
The Turner family had not yet been taken care of, however. Erik Turner was still eyeing them covetously.
