Lily explained, “Jasper was worried you don’t like living in another house. So, after you left, he asked me to buy this house.”

Anna asked as she touched the silver bells on the tree, “Oh? Did he invite his friends to spend the holidays here? He threw a party here every year, and it was always a blast.”

Lily replied, “No. He spent the night here alone on Christmas Eve.”

Anna’s hand froze. “By himself?” she asked, slowly turning her head back to look at Lily.

When Anna was in America, Jasper would plan every holiday for a month in advance. He would roast the turkey, choose the gifts, and even prepare the games and food for the party. So, Anna thought he was just a guy who liked to celebrate the holidays.

Lily nodded slightly and looked very sorrowful. She said, “Yes. Actually, he doesn’t have many friends in America. His friends are his coworkers, and they aren’t close. After you left, every holiday became just an ordinary day for him.” 355 You’re So Cruel
