Jasper let Roger hold her like this, âWhere do you feel uncomfortable? Should I take you to the hospital? Youâ¦â
Before she could finish her sentence, his hands suddenly loosened, and then he pushed her away completely.
She staggered back several steps and almost fell to the ground.
His face was still extremely pale, âIâm fine! Thereâs nothing wrong! Since my gift has been delivered today, I should leave now! Please tell Miss. Reed and your parents for me. Iâm leaving now!â
After saying this, Roger turned and left quickly, leaving Jasper standing there in a daze, looking worried.
Whatâs wrong with him? Is he really okay?
For some reason, Rogerâs appearance just now made her feel like he had experienced something terrible.
Did the conversation just now remind him of his parentsâ death, or did he experience something even more terrible?
At this moment, Jasper felt his mind was in chaos.
Meanwhile, when Roger rushed out of the Reed family mansion, he almost stumbled and had to lean against the walls along the way.
In that moment, he thought of the experiences he had after being kidnapped by the kidnappers from the hospital, those dark experiences he didnât want to recall!
And she even asked him to speak it out!
How could he describe such experiences?
How could someone as pure and clean as her think of such darkness?
The cleaner she was, the more he felt his own filth, and the more he had the urge to destroy her.
He wanted to destroy her cleanliness and make her as muddy as he was!
But why⦠did he still want to hold her?
Even he himself didnât understand this impulse!
When Jasper returned to the main room, it was almost time to cut the cake. William walked up to her and asked, âWhatâs wrong? I sent you a message, but you didnât reply. Mason has returned to the living room.â
âI⦠I didnât notice the message,â Jasper stammered.
âWhy do you look so bad? Did something happen?â William asked.
âNothing, nothing happened,â she forced a smile.
After a moment, it was time to cut the cake. The Reed family stood beside todayâs birthday girl, Jasmine. With a knife in her hand, Jasmine made a wish, blew out the candles, and began cutting the cake under everyoneâs gaze.
Laughter and congratulations filled the scene.
William, however, looked at Jasperâs strained smile and showed a thoughtful expression.
Not long after Jasper left, Roger also disappeared. And when Jasper returned, Roger was nowhere to be seen in the living room.
So, did something happen when Jasper went out to look for Mason?
And could this be related to Roger?
While everyone was eating cake, William walked up to Jasper and asked, âRoger isnât in the living room. Do you know where he went?â
âAh, he said he had to go back first,â Jasper answered nervously.
âGo back first?â William pondered. âDid he tell you that?â
âYes, when I went to find Mason earlier, I hopped to enter intis him, and he said he had to go back first, Paper and Although what she said was true, the inexplicably felt guilty.
