Chapter 185 If Only You Could Grow Up Faster

“Why are you here?” Eileen asked, clutching her chest and breathing heavily.

“Richard called me and told me you weren’t home yet. I figured you were still at school. I was worried because it was getting late, so I came to check on you,” Jasper said with a slight smile. “I didn’t expect the students here to be so enthusiastic.”

The two took the elevator down. Eileen couldn’t help but glance back at Fabian, who hadn’t. come down yet.

“It’s difficult for ordinary people to catch a glimpse of you given your status. From now on, just give me a call.”

He added, “The call didn’t go through.”

Eileen gasped as she belatedly realized one thing. “I turned off my phone because of the test. I’m sorry! You don’t have to wait for me in the future. You’re already very busy with work.”

“How can I be at ease leaving you alone?”

A faint smile graced the corners of Eileen’s lips.

“Let them be. What can they say about a boyfriend carrying his girlfriend?”

Eileen was concerned about his legs. They hadn’t fully recovered and needed to recover gradually. “If you’re tired, put me down.”

“I’m fine. I’m not tired.”

The quiet path was lit by streetlights. It seemed like Blake snowflakes were falling through the light.

Jasper walked slowly, wishing the road could be a little longer.

A snowflake fell on his shoulder, and he looked up.
