My Four Miraculous Treasures

Chapter 86

Edith looked at Jasper affectionately, feeling excited.

Jasper was too focused on his work to even spare her a glance.

Edith began to feel uneasy and nervous when she thought about what she would say.

She was afraid that Jasper would cut all ties with her as he did with the women who confessed to him. They would never be friends again or get the chance to be near him.

However, Jasper would be taken away by Willow if she didn't confess.

She would never get another chance if that happened.

After a short mental battle, Edith decided to confess.

She went to the bar and made a cup of coffee. Then, she went over to Jasper and placed the coffee beside him. With a voice softer than usual, she urged, "Mr. Hughes, don't just focus on work. Why don't you take a break and have some coffee?" Jasper was just putting a document away after signing it. He had a sip of coffee before asking indifferently, "What do you want?"

He put the coffee back down.
