The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 298

Haynes and Jasper were clearly absorbed, but Foreman alone kept wearing that faint, gentle smile, his eyes calm and clear.

Afterward, Jasper-beaming with pride-turned to Foreman. "So, Foreman, what did you think of Rachel's violin performance?"

Foreman's smile remained warm. "It was beautiful."

Having grown up together, Jasper knew Foreman well enough to pick up on the subtle undertones.

"Come on, you don't look that impressed. Didn't she sweep you off your feet?"

Foreman's smile turned a touch wistful. "Maybe it's because... I've seen something even more breathtaking."

"Something more breathtaking? What's that supposed to mean?"

Jasper, ever the gossip, leaned in. "Foreman, there are so many women in our circle who've tried to win your heart, but you never seem interested in any of them. Be honest with me-have you already fallen for someone?"

Foreman didn't hesitate; he admitted it openly.

"I have."

"Who is she?" Jasper's eyes lit up as if he'd uncovered some great secret. "Bring her around sometime! For a woman to catch Mr. Richards' eye, she must be truly remarkable."
