My Four Miraculous Treasures

Chapter 21

Edith tried to maintain her front as a strong and independent woman. Yet in the face of Jasper's rage, even she felt terrified and uneasy.

Sensing that she had made a mistake, she decided to pick her words carefully. "Sir, about the mess in your office... Four kids barged in and destroyed everything."

When she spoke, she didn't dare to make eye contact with Jasper. Her heart was drumming against her rib cage, afraid he would press further. Compared to the mess in the office, Edith was more worried about him finding out the reason behind the children's visit to his

office today.

Willow, standing nearby, was so nervous that she held her breath.

Willow lowered her head, and stared silently at her feet. She was so afraid of being noticed that she didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.
