Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 309 A Dangerous Obsession

Candice’s POV:

Jasper sat on the sofa, his gaze steady and unwavering.

I hadn’t expected him to be so distant and indifferent, and my heart sank in disappointment.

Initially, I had thought that Jasper reaching out meant he still had feelings for me.

But now…

I refused to accept this. Since Jasper had come here tonight, I had to seize this opportunity!

With this in mind, I poured a cup of tea and placed it before Jasper. “Here, have some coffee.”

“Thank you.” Jasper accepted it politely before taking out a script and handing it to me.

“This is the script,” he said in a neutral tone. “Take a look. The role has a fair number of lines but doesn’t require too much acting skill. You’ll be more than capable of handling it.”

I took the script and smiled seductively. “Of course. Since you’re asking for my help, how could I refuse?”

But instead of reading the script, I placed it on the coffee table.

I didn’t call Jasper here to talk about this role.

I had another purpose.

“Jasper, you should know that the reason I asked you to meet me in person isn’t just for this role.” I leaned toward him and reached out, gently holding his hand. Gazing up at him with teary eyes, I spoke softly, “Back then, I didn’t elope with another werewolf and flee abroad. I had my reasons.”

A flicker of disgust crossed Jasper’s face. He subtly withdrew his hand and leaned back, increasing the distance between us.

Seeing this, my heart clenched in pain. I sighed softly and said, “You must hate me now. I know what I did back then isn’t something you can forgive easily.
