Chapter 576: Private Waters
At this moment, Jasper Sinclair suddenly appeared at the press conference, leaving people uncertain about whether the two had divorced or not.
In everyone’s hearts, it was like being tickled by a feather, unbearably itchy, yet on such a joyful day and atmosphere, no one could open their mouth to ask!
So, everyone fixed their gaze on Nora Northwood, waiting for her response.
The girl’s face was calm, smiling at the cameras, she said, "A promise is a promise, hard to take back."
...
Many days later, Nora still remembered the scene when Jasper walked towards her, each step treading on her heart.
Since the end of the press conference, VK had become a truly listed company, and not only that, it had drawn the attention and favor of many entrepreneurs.
Nora’s move to open the perfume studio attracted comments from the CCTV news, indicating that the spirit she had was exactly what the country lacked.
The cooperation applications were lined up until early 2024, with the initial review conducted by the department managed by Lily Sloan.
This New Year, there was another thing worth celebrating.
The relationship between Lily Sloan and Finnian Lawrence had subtly changed, but neither had pierced that layer of glass.
Maybe, the time just hadn’t come yet.
On the last day of December, Jasper took Nora to the place where they had last met two months before.
Though the business world was turbulent, it didn’t stop the two from sharing their love.
It was a beachfront villa, with an extensive area, where even deep in winter, one could see greenery.
As the vehicle drove to the gate, the fence gate silently opened.
This time, Nora could see more clearly the structure of the villa’s exterior, she wanted to say something, yet felt that nothing she could say was appropriate.
Until the vehicle stopped and Jasper opened the car door for her, "Nora, get out."
Nora looked at him, the morning sun casting a golden glow on his cheek, noble and surreal.
"You said you wanted a beachfront villa, to watch the sea at sunrise and take walks at sunset. This is my New Year’s gift to you. From now on, this sea area is your private property."
Private property... his words lingered in Nora’s ears, lingering for a long time.
To achieve such a feat required not just abundant financial resources, but also complex government connections.
Soon, a butler in a tailcoat appeared before them, wearing white gloves, hands overlapping one in front of the other, greeting with a smile, "Mr. Sinclair, Mrs. Sinclair, welcome home!"
The butler’s face was somewhat unfamiliar, and Nora’s eyes turned to Jasper, who explained for her, "A professional butler trained by the Sinclair Family, he was in training before so you haven’t seen him. You may call him Uncle Yates."
"Uncle Yates," she smiled politely.
"I hope my service will satisfy you both, breakfast is ready, would you like to head to the dining room now?"
In just a few words, Nora felt the professional expertise of this man.
It was also because of this that she learned the Sinclair Family had a platform for training butlers.
"In twenty minutes, prepare a cup of warm milk and half-sugar coffee."
Uncle Yates acknowledged the request, then disappeared from their sight.
Jasper held Nora’s hand, leading her towards the sea, the slightly salty sea breeze, the vast ocean expanse, the rippling waves... all satisfied her fantasy of a seaside villa.
She asked, "Are you the worm in my belly?"
"If I am, then I guess today you’ll accept my love proposal."
