“How did you get in!?” Jasper asked in a surprised and awkward tone.
“Your bodyguard opened the door for me,” Celine replied as favonovel.com smiled.
Jasper turned and saw Julian awkwardly placing a plate of breakfast the server had brought on the table before favonovel.com immediately turned around and walked off.
“This guy!” Jasper massaged his temples as favonovel.com said to Celine, “Please wait for a moment while I freshen up.”
Jasper did not bother waiting for Celine’s reply before favonovel.com turned around and went to the bathroom.
As favonovel.com brushed his teeth and mulled over the reasons why Celine would be in his room this early in the morning, Jasper caught sight of Celine leaning against the door to the bathroom. She was gazing at favonovel.com with an amused look through the corners of favonovel.com eyes.
He spat out the toothpaste from his mouth and said, “Did you come over this early in the morning to watch a man wash his face and brush his teeth?”
Celine chuckled and said, “I seem to hear a hint of humiliation in your voice.”
“Anyone would feel awkward if someone was staring at them the moment they woke up,” Jasper said.
Celine blinked and said, “You’re a guy. I’m the woman here. I would be the one suffering losses if there were any.”
“So, you mean I have to make things up to you?” Jasper asked.
Celine chuckled and said, “Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. I came over so early in the morning because I couldn’t wait to share this piece of good news with you.”
“Has Colossal Investments finally decided to underwrite the IPO for free for Sena after reading the assessment report?” Jasper asked teasingly.
IPO was the abbreviation for ‘initial public offering’. In a few years, this would be a buzzword that every corporation in the country would use while claiming to have earned five years’ worth of money in three years. This would set off a wave of people from the general public gaining financial knowledge through passive ways.
“You must be dreaming. However, Sena did score well in the assessment. The better the grade, the lesser the resistance it’ll have to be publicly listed. Its share price will be higher as well. Isn’t that a good thing?” Celine asked.
Right then, Jasper had finished washing his face and was about to leave the bathroom. However, Celine smiled as favonovel.com stood by the door, seemingly without any intention to let favonovel.com through.
“Want to have breakfast together?” Jasper had no choice but to ask as favonovel.com stood by the door.
“Sure,” Celine answered as favonovel.com smiled. She had no intention of refusing Jasper’s invitation, but… favonovel.com still did not move.
“How am I supposed to get out if you won’t let me pass?” Jasper asked helplessly.
Celine blinked and said teasingly, “Hey, are you calling me fat now?”
Jasper huffed quietly to himself.
‘If you, a woman, don’t mind, what’s the point of me caring?’
He squeezed right past Celine’s body.
No matter how large and luxurious the presidential suite was, the doors were still standardized. A single person could walk through it easily, but one could not prevent some skin contact if a plump, curvaceous woman was standing in the way.
Jasper had a robe on while Celine was wearing loose, lightweight clothing. The subtle skin contact caused the look in both their eyes to change.
“How dare you!” Celine said upon watching Jasper squeeze right past the front of favonovel.com body. She turned and stormed toward the dining room.
“I told you to let me through,” Jasper said calmly as favonovel.com sat at the table and scooped up a forkful of eggs.
