"Then why not tell your father? He would've allowed it-with a team of bodyguards."

Jasmine shook her head.

"He told me to rest because of my illness. I've told him a hundred times that I'm already cured, but he won't believe it."

Alex gazed at Jasmine, captivated by her flawless complexion and radiant beauty. Her long, flowing hair framed her face, giving her an ethereal, angelic presence. Yet, behind that beauty, he glimpsed a fierce, untamed spirit flickering in her eyes. She found the courage to rebel in the most unexpected place.

"Next time, if you're planning to go in a place like this, try wearing something modest-something that won't draw attention," Alex suggested.

"I've definitely learned a lot from this experience," Jasmine replied cheerfully.

"You'd better!"

"Alex, will you come to my banquet tonight?" she asked hopefully.

"Let's see," Alex responded, glancing outside with little interest.

Jasmine's eyes lingered on his side profile, her heart beating a little faster.

The face that had saved her from years of pain and illness was now so close, and she couldn't help but feel drawn to him.

Alex had to be one of those people with superhuman abilities, the kind who trained in secret martial arts or techniques to surpass normal human limits.

"Alex, you must be really strong, right? How could I become strong like you...?"

"I'm not strong," Alex replied. "Someone like your father is strong-he has subordinates, a business empire."
