Anna sat nearby, completely absorbed in a magazine. She knew Jasper preferred quiet, so she was careful not to disturb him.
But Jasper was acting strange today. He seemed restless.
"Sir, are you bored?" Anna put down her magazine. She wanted to offer him the one she was reading if he was.
However, Jasper didn't answer her. Instead, he stood up, tucked his hands into his trouser pockets, and walked over to Nate Jennings.
Nate Jennings was fast asleep and talking in her sleep. She must have been having a sweet dream, because the corners of her mouth were turned up in a goofy, lovestruck smile.
Jasper kicked her sofa, shattering her sweet dream.
Nate Jennings jolted awake. When she saw the impossibly handsome face before her, she first looked starstruck, but then her expression fell. She saw him clearly now—it was Jasper!
"Sir, what can I do for you?" She put on a smile.
