"Blue, let me introduce you. This is my old classmate Jasper. His family is…"

Blue smiled. "Tadinger Group. Ingrid, why didn't you tell me earlier that Mr. Jasper was your old classmate? What a pleasant surprise!"

Jasper was surprised, but smiled. "You are?"

"FD Group. I was tasked with a Herculean task by the company, in charge of the Tita Star program. Look how fated we are. Brother Jasper, you must help a brother out." Blue was acting very familiar with him. To him this was normal, because business was the most important thing.

"Oh, I might have heard of it before." Jasper replied mildly. Brother… That was a little prickly.

Jasper seemed to show no love, but Blue looked like he had discovered America. He was using every trick in the book to ingratiate himself. If one wanted to start something on Tita Star, one must first know Jasper, otherwise one's movements were fettered.

Ingrid was a little confused. Blue had been the guy she had carefully chosen out of everyone. Although he had many flaws, but he had business acumen, and was from a reputable family. Although he sometimes used underhanded tactics, but success was king.

But the scene playing out in front of her eyes gave her a feeling she could not explain. Could she have judged wrongly?

"This isn't a good place to talk. Let's go in?"

Jasper smiled. Subconsciously, he had seized control. He had seen too many of this kind of people.

"Keke, you're right. Let's go in. Oh yes, here is my Skylink number."

Blue immediately seized the opportunity to exchange numbers. With this connection, things would go smoothly in the future.

Ingrid found that she was suddenly at a loss for words. The change in Jasper was something she could not place.

Once inside, Ingrid had just plucked a glass of red wine from a server's tray, when she turned her head to see Laurel. The red evening gown marked her perfect quality. It was confidence that even she did not have.

Ingrid took 2 small steps to come in front of Laurel. "Senior Laurel, I wonder if you still remember me."

Laurel had also graduated from Yinman International Aristocrat School, but was a year ahead of Ingrid. While Ingrid had just been the class sweetheart, Laurel had been an influential person in the school, and an idol. Even now, Ingrid's mannerisms were in imitation of her senior.

Laurel gave Ingrid a mild smile. "Keke, Ingrid, of course I remember."

Ingrid was extraordinarily happy. But the smile on her face quickly froze. The most perfect model of a woman in her eyes, Senior Laurel, actually walked directly over to Jasper, and then ardently clutched his arm…

Time passed…

"Ingrid? Why are you spacing out here?" Blue tugged on her arm.

"Ah, just now, Senior Laurel and Jasper?"

Even if Jasper had done well for himself on Tita Titan star, but that did not warrant such warm attention from Senior Laurel, did it? Even she would not do that!

"You actually don't know? You're too inattentive to your old classmates. He's made it big now. Oh, that's right. The contract hasn't been announced, and you were still on the flight. Perhaps you haven't heard the news. I'm sure you know CPD? Jasper is Lya Sphinx's only representative business… Ingrid? Are you alright?"

"Keke, it's nothing. I'm just not feeling well. I'll be in the powder room…"

After Ingrid graduated, she had made the rounds in high society. Of course, she knew what CPD was, and was well aware of its awesome connection. This had been a program that she had not even been able to access to date.

In the powder room, Ingrid stared at the mirror, adjusting her own expression. She had well and truly misjudged. Was this the Jasper who, in her memory, showed every expression on his face?

Time rewound back to school days. The moment Ingrid displayed the slightest hint of dissatisfaction, he would anxiously hover around her… And now that indifferent expression still lingered in her mind.

Suddenly, Ingrid felt emotionally off. Back then, she had shrugged off Jasper because she knew he would definitely not be able to continue his family business. But now Blue was nothing compared to him, and Jasper's image looked way better than Blue.

After a long time, Ingrid had composed herself mentally. She was a decisive woman who knew what she wanted. Back then, she had ditched Jasper, and now she could ditch Blue as well. She was confident that Jasper still held feelings for her. That gaze was unmistakable.

As she walked out the door, she ran into Jasper. Jasper had exchanged plenty of niceties and flattery, but he knew that they wanted to borrow his connection to get close to Yan Xiaosu, including that high and mighty Laurel.

As the two met again, Ingrid's face broke out in a brilliant smile. "Jasper, we should find a time to catch up. You've matured so much."

To say that there were no feelings would have been a lie. Back then, captivating Jasper would have posed no difficulty at all, but these years, he had too many experiences with fake emotions. He was no longer that naïve little boy, but an experienced playboy. Sometimes, bad boys were created by women themselves, and Jasper had been made thus by this woman.

"No time like the present. Isn't this fine?" Jasper suddenly smiled, because he was clear as to Ingrid's meaning. He even knew what she wanted.

Once, he had been ready to give everything for this woman. But now, she was pitiful. Why had he not seen it back then?

In his mind, vengeance, frustration, anger and malevolent desire wrestled.

"Here?" Ingrid was surprised.

Without any more chatter, Jasper dominantly pulled Ingrid into a toilet, and locked the door. He pushed her up against the wall, and held her chin. "After so many years, you're still so sexy. Let me check if anything has changed!"

Jasper's tone was unmistakable, and his hand had already slipped into her evening dress and was groping enthusiastically. The feel was familiar, and she had indeed filled out, although that was no thanks to him.

Ingrid's expression changed, but she quickly composed herself, and changed it into a come-hither look. Her pretty face flushed red. This was something that no man could resist. She knew that as long as Jasper took her here, the battle was half won.

In truth, Jasper had acted recklessly. He had wanted to ravage this woman. He was no nice guy. But this time, a wave of anguish poured out in his heart. This woman represented his wasted past. Even if it was wrong, Jasper still treasured it.

The Ingrid in front of him was just a piece of meat that could act, no different from those women that were with him for his money.

Suddenly, Jasper smiled, and his hand retracted. He tenderly helped Ingrid to adjust her clothing.

"I suddenly remembered. You're not my girlfriend anymore."

He left without lingering. The past was past, and there was no need to destroy what he had once held dear.

For some reason, Jasper suddenly thought of that Tyrant fatty. It looked like he had been influenced greatly. Otherwise, why would he have given up on such a freebie. It looked like he was really making great strides along the path to being a gentleman.

Closing the door, Jasper suddenly harbored thoughts of rushing back and giving in to his inner beast. He could not resist a laugh. But he still left decisively, his heart light.

Humans were human because they had their own will.

And all this was under the supervision of somebody.

Laurel was the boss of this Club, which had hidden cameras in every corner. As for Jasper, she naturally paid the closest attention. She was filled with curiosity as to his sudden rise. She wanted to know what this man was made of. The return of a prodigal son?

And the scene she had just watched had left her feeling even stranger. This man, was indeed different.

Very charming!

Among the guys she knew, Laurel was very clear as to what kind of person they were. Up till now, she had never met someone like Jasper. More, she was aware of Jasper's past with that woman who was desperately trying to climb the ladder. Faced with lust and vengeance against such a woman, Jasper had actually calmed himself and left.

Maturity? True love?

Jasper was surprised as well. After returning, clearly Laurel's attitude towards him had changed significantly again. From the start, she had just wanted to pry for the secret code to acquire CPD, but now it was almost like she was actually interested in him as a person. This… What did the nicknamed Stone Woman Miss Laurel want?

But he did not care. Jasper was very clear as to what he wanted to do now.
