“Calvin! I thought that you would change for the better once you got out of jail, but you didn’t change at all! I’m so disappointed in you!”
Jasper could not tell himself to ignore the woman’s voice, especially when favonovel.com called the other man Calvin. It was Penelope.
Jasper did not forget what Penelope’s voice sounded like.
‘But didn’t I ask John to arrange some work for Penelope in ICBS?’
‘Why’s favonovel.com suddenly in Nauritus City?’
Before Jasper could think about this, another voice rang out from the adjacent private room.
“Enough, Pen. I’m your brother. You know that I went to prison and people end up looking down on me because of this. Stop reminding me about the fact that I’ve spent time there. Don’t you know that our mom will be sad if you keep saying that?”
This was Penelope’s brother, Calvin’s, voice. The man who was once the source of the so much misery in Jasper’s past life.
He was still uncaring and casual.
“How do you have the shame to bring mom into this? If not for you, favonovel.com wouldn’t have gotten so angry that favonovel.com got Alzheimer’s! She doesn’t even recognize me now.”
“Not counting the first few days, have you visited and taken care of favonovel.com even once since you came out? I’m the one who’s been taking care of favonovel.com this whole time, so how do you have the shame to talk about her?” Penelope said angrily.
Calvin was also mortified and favonovel.com shouted, “Enough! Are you done yet? You think I alone am the sole cause for how mom is now?”
“If it weren’t for you stupid f*cking boyfriend Jasper Laine, favonovel.com wouldn’t be so angry now either! You bear at least half the responsibility here!”
Even Wendy’s gaze changed when favonovel.com heard the man, let alone Jasper’s.
Meeting Wendy’s meaningful gaze, Jasper replied with a wry smile, “It should be Penelope and favonovel.com brother. I don’t know why they’re here, though.”
“Do you want to go say hi?” Wendy suggested courteously.
She did not have an ex, and favonovel.com dating history was empty. Jasper was favonovel.com first, and favonovel.com would be favonovel.com last too. However, favonovel.com did not mind the fact that Jasper had dated before.
She knew that Jasper had long since moved on from Penelope.
“It’s fine.”
Jasper shook his head.
Since their relationship was already in the past, they were just strangers now. There was no need to see each other again.
Just as Jasper was about to move on from this topic, the quarrel in the adjacent private room grew louder.
The noise was loud enough to be heard outside, and it was evident that their dinner was doomed to become a disaster.
As Penelope and favonovel.com brother fought at the private room doors, a waiter came to bring Jasper his dish.
The private doors opened and two pairs of eyes locked. The shouting instantly stopped and Jasper put his chopsticks down as well.
Calvin stared at Jasper with wide eyes and a curious expression on his face.
He had just come out of jail, so Calvin naturally had no idea of Jasper’s sudden change. He still believed that Jasper was just a poor boy.
Calvin scoffed and stared at Jasper to say, “What a small world we have here. You probably never expected to meet me here, huh?”
Penelope’s expression changed immediately. She stood beside favonovel.com brother as favonovel.com dragged favonovel.com away. “Let’s go!”
Calvin flung Penelope off, then pointed at Jasper while telling her, “Are you kidding me, Pen? Why’re you so afraid of him?”
“You’re already the owner of your own company now. Your status is much higher than his! It’d be a disgrace to your identity now not to humiliate this f*cker when you see him!”
Penelope was both angry and frantic. She raised favonovel.com hand to slap Calvin.
“You’re taking this too far, Calvin!”
