Life at the Top

Jasper hugged the woman in his arms and chuckled softly, “Did you spot the little surprise I prepared for you?”

Wendy raised her head from Jasper’s arms. Her eyes were gleaming like stars and they looked as if they could talk. She said, “If you hadn’t done this with such sincerity, I wouldn’t let you off so easily.”

Wendy ignored the astonished gazes of the staff coming and going next to them. She just rested her head on Jasper’s shoulder with peace of mind. She closed her eyes slightly and murmured, “Sometimes, I think that I’m so lucky to have met you.”

Jasper lowered his head to look at this woman’s unmatched and incomparable pretty face. He said warmly, “I’ll give you the best, no matter what. I already decided the moment I first saw you. Thankfully, God gave me another chance.”

Wendy only thought that Jasper was talking about them meeting again after many years of graduating from high school. As such, she was unconcerned.

However, she would never know that the second chance Jasper spoke of spanned across two lifetimes.

“Will you go back with us later?” Wendy asked.

Jasper said, “I still have something to do and it’ll be pretty late after I’m done. You should go back first.”

Wendy nodded, and the two of them walked out of the hall together. However, they spotted someone standing restlessly on the other side of the corridor from afar.
