In her pitch-black pupils, it seemed as though her figure was slowly taking over, but her gaze was so different from Williamâs.
Williamâs gaze towards her was gentle yet intense, and when he expressed his affection for her, she had no doubt in her mind.
But Roger also said he liked her, yet his gaze didnât make her feel liked. Instead, it gave her a sense of danger.
âWhat, donât you believe me?â Roger whispered, slowly leaning down. His handsome face loomed large in front of her.
She instinctively wanted to step back, but his hand suddenly grabbed her waist, stopping her retreat.
His face was inches away, his breath on her face, his sexy lips slowly opening. âSo what do I have to do for you to believe me?â
She bit her lip and stared at his elegant face. âIf you really like someone, you shouldnât use that feeling as a condition for a transaction. If the other person is only dating you because of the transaction, whatâs the point?â
âBut isnât keeping the person you like by your side meaningful?â Roger argued.
âEven if the other person doesnât like you, it doesnât matter?â She asked, confused.
âIt doesnât matter, because I know she will eventually like me.â As he spoke, there was a glint of determination in his eyes.
Jasper was stunned. The way this person spoke made it seem like he was telling the truth, and that he truly believed it.
âYouâ¦are really confident,â she chuckled.
âIs it bad to be confident?â He asked in return.
She was speechless and after a while, she said, âI wonât date someone just because of the terms of a deal. I will only date someone I like.â
Upon hearing this, he smiled slightly and said, âThen wait until you like me, and we can date.â
Her face turned red instantly, âWhat makes you so sure that I will like you?â
âDo you believe in destiny?â he asked.
âWhat?â
âWhen I first laid eyes on you, I knew we were meant to be,â he replied with conviction.
Yes, they were meant to be, destined to have a fateful bond! He thought to himself silently.
When Jasper returned to the dorm room, he saw the other three roommates staring at her.
âWhatâs going on?â she asked, confused.
âJasper, why arenât you saying anything about being with Roger?â Meave asked.
Horea quickly added, âAre you trying to keep it a secret?â
Nina also chimed in, âAlthough I still think William is better, itâs understandable that childhood sweethearts are often no match for a new handsome guy!â
Jasper felt overwhelmed and asked, âWhat are you all talking about?â
âOn the school forum, there are pictures of you and Roger together. Youâre not planning on denying it, are you?â Meave soid, as she pulled up the forum post for Jasper to see.
