Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 666: Reforged from the Furnace

Jasper Sinclair vaguely realized that his cousin at Aegis Assurance probably got some benefits.

Otherwise, how could he have the courage to imply something about Nora Northwood in front of him?

Looking more closely, Jasper Sinclair’s face was visibly darkening at an observable speed.

He coldly opened his mouth, "If you don’t know how to speak, then find another use for your mouth."

Seeing the other party angry, Jenson Sinclair smirked a bit, intending to make a casual joke to brush off the matter, "Cousin, it’s just a joke, why so excited?"

His real purpose wasn’t just verbal teasing, he wanted to test where Jasper Sinclair’s boundaries really were!

As it turns out, anything related to Nora Northwood was off-limits.

"If it happens again, I don’t mind sending you abroad for a few more years." Jasper wasn’t joking; he would definitely follow through on what he said.

After a brief standoff, the weaker side had to compromise, "Sorry, my actions were misunderstood, cousin."

The conversation ended with Jenson Sinclair’s apology, and Jasper Sinclair took him away from the spot.

Unfortunately, Whispering Springs wasn’t his property, otherwise he would certainly have hung Jenson Sinclair’s photo at the entrance with a note: Do not enter.

Nora Northwood’s reaction wasn’t strong; she was still savoring the blueberries from earlier, thinking: I’ll have the attendant send some to the room later.

Outside, she’s always bothered by some odd people.

...

The day before leaving Whispering Springs, Nora soaked in the pool for quite a while.

Today, the scent was of mugwort.

"Jasper, the sulfur smell is gone, come join me!" she warmly invited.

Jasper Sinclair soaked in the water only occasionally, which made Nora think he was here just wasting money.

This time, Jasper rarely agreed to her request.

Steam floated towards the ceiling, and the room was filled with swirling mist, making even human shapes vague.

Jasper’s body slowly immersed into the pool water; the scorching temperature made him inexplicably restless.

He moved closer to Nora, skin touching skin, and he grasped her slender and warm ankle.

Underwater, Nora’s knee slightly bent, trying to escape his hold, feeling that this posture was quite... sensual!

Jasper opened his palm, letting go of her, with a smile on his lips, and a hint of intimacy in his eyes that couldn’t be disguised.

Nora saw his Adam’s apple moving.

In a flash of regret, she thought she shouldn’t have called him down to join her.

The more Nora tried to slip away, the closer Jasper leaned, asking knowingly, "Nora, what are you hiding from?"

"Hiding from a rogue, haven’t I made that obvious enough!"

Nora suddenly acted mischievously, scooping up pool water in her palm, splashing it onto Jasper’s face.

His hair got drenched, but he wasn’t angry, tilting his head to look at Nora until her cheeks flushed.

"Ever played snowball fights? It’s just like this."

"For kids born in the south, how often do they see snow, let alone have snowball fights."

"Such a pity. This winter, let’s go to Northreach."

There, on the northern edge of the map.

"September is near your birthday, winter in Northreach can be tens of degrees below zero. How can your little body handle it?"

"Deal, come here for a pinky promise."

Nora moved forward, closing the distance between them, with her little finger hooking, itching their hearts.

Jasper kept the "Northreach trip" in mind for future fulfillment.

No matter when, he always strives to fulfill every request Nora makes.
