âWhat a coincidence, didnât expect to run into you here.â William spoke up.
Roger looked at William, âItâs still early, why donât we hang out here together for a bit?â
âNo thanks, we have some things to take care of and need to leave.â William said.
âIs that so?â Rogerâs gaze shifted to Jasperâs face, âDonât forget about the thing you promised me today, Iâll be waiting.â
Jasper pursed her lips, âI know.â Then she pulled Williamâs hand and walked out of the bar.
The group of people surrounding Roger said, âRoger, whatâs your relationship with Miss. Reed? She came to the bar to find you last time too!â
âWe donât have much of a relationship, just acquaintances from before.â Roger said indifferently.
âAcquaintances from before? Well, youâre both from the overseas elite Elliott family, so itâs normal to know Miss. Reed. But itâs a shame, this princess already has a boyfriend, and the Barlow family that William is from is not ordinary in Deer Capital!â
When this was said, the beautiful girl next to Roger showed a suspicious expression, âShe already has a boyfriend, whatâs the shame?â
âWhy isnât it a shame? Last time Roger even got Miss. Reed to dump William and be with him. If this Grand Princess didnât have a boyfriend, who knows, she might agree, you never know!â One of the guys said.
The girlâs face turned slightly unpleasant upon hearing this, and the boy seemed to realize he had said something wrong and stopped talking.
The girl turned to Roger and asked, âDo you want to date Miss.
Reed?â
âI wouldnât mind giving it a try,â Roger replied with a slight smile.
The girl was clearly taken aback by Rogerâs frank answer and felt embarrassed. âIf you want to date other women, why did you bring me here to play?â she asked.
âYou asked me to bring you along, didnât you?â Roger replied casually.
âWhat do you take me for? A spare tire?â the girl asked, feeling even more embarrassed.
âYouâre not a spare tire,â Roger said calmly.
The girlâs face brightened, but the next thing he said made her blush with anger. âI never intended to find a spare tire. Between us, itâs just a casual fling,â he said.
The girl was furious and raised her hand to slap Rogerâs face.
But in the next moment, her hand was intercepted by him in mid-air. His once delicate eyes were now icy cold as he stared at her. âYou donât have the right to slap me!â he said.
The girl felt a chill run down her spine and was suddenly filled with terror.
After leaving the bar, Jasper and William walked out. William asked, âWhat did Roger ask you to do carlier?â
âItâs an invitation to Jasmineâs birthday party,â Jasper replied. âHe wants to come to the party too.â
Upon hearing this, William seemed to be pondering something. âSo, are you planning to forgive him?â
âHmm,â she nodded. âIf heâs willing to let go of his hatred, then that would be the best outcome.â
âBut what if he canât let go?â William asked. âArenât you afraid he might do something at Jasmineâs birthday party?â
After a moment of silence, Jasper spoke up. âThere will be Reed family bodyguards and surveillance at the party. If he tries anything, heâll be caught. Besidesâ¦â
