The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 419

The two men hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Jasper.

"And you are...?"

Jasper answered them in flawless German, "She and I go way back. If you want

One of the men glanced uncertainly at Stella. "You're saying she doesn't understand German?"

Jasper replied, "That's right. She barely finished high school and can hardly manage a conversation in English, let alone German.

Didn't you notice? No matter what you said to her, she just ignored you. That's because she couldn't understand a word.

The two men exchanged a glance, a flicker of excitement lighting up their eyes. "Some man? So she's here at Mr. Walden's music symposium because..."

Jasper nodded, lowering his voice conspiratorially. "Exactly. She's here to find herself a sugar daddy. Her last one ditched her, so now she's desperate for the next."
