Chapter 88

After leaving the courthouse, Caspar went to send the person who came to testify today.

Arya stood alone on the steps of the courthouse door, lost in thought.

What happened today was like a dream.

At this moment, the phone in her pocket rang, pulling her thoughts back.

Seeing the number, Arya was stunned. It had been months since he had contacted him.

Arya also wanted to know about his recent situation and quickly picked up the phone. "Jasper..." When she opened her mouth, she found that her voice was broken.

"Arya, I'm coming back." Just a few months was like a century for Jasper.

It wasn't that he didn't want to contact Arya, but he felt shameless to contact Arya before he succeeded.

In the past few months, all his efforts, and even unscrupulous tactics, were to access power.

It would not happen again that he couldn't protect her when she got hurt.

It was quite sudden for Arya.

But thinking that it was almost the new year, she understood, "When? I will pick you up.”

"On Friday morning, Arya..."

Arya held the phone and replied faintly, "OK."

"I just want to tell you. Don't forget what you promised me." Jasper looked at the letter he had given her and smiled slightly.

For the past few months, every time he missed her, he would take a look at this letter.

He had been working hard, not afraid of any difficulties because she was his motivation.

Arya was at a loss for a moment before she understood what he was saying and said on the phone, "I didn't forget.”

As long as he didn't dislike her, she was willing.

Even if there was no love, Jasper's companionship, love, and protection for her over the years were enough to make her accept him.

For some reason, Arya lost the mood she had when she wrote to him.

Then Jasper had something to do and hung up.
