The Wrong Woman

Chapter 1017

In the end, Imogen obediently went back to the dining table. She pulled out a chair and sat down. After grabbing a hot cross bun, she angrily stuffed it into her mouth.

Seeing her finally give in, Jasper smiled. He walked over and sat down across from her.

Imogen's cheeks were still flushed with embarrassment. She looked at Jasper's handsome face and muscular body. Combined with his good-natured, gentle, and considerate personality, she felt heartbroken and regretted knowing he was gay.

No, she couldn't give up on Jasper just like that. She wanted to make him stir for a woman.

After making up her mind, she felt better.

As Jasper ate elegantly, he asked in a gentle tone, "Where are you going later?"

"The job market."

"I'll take you there."

"It's okay, you should go to work."

"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry."

Imogen was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Jay, where do you work?"

Jasper paused and fell silent.

Mustering her courage, Imogen asked, "Can I visit your workplace? I'd like to meet your colleagues."

Jasper's gaze flickered. He replied, "It's not very convenient."

Imogen resigned as she pursed her lips. She responded, "Oh!"

She felt a bit disappointed after getting rejected.

After breakfast, Jasper drove Imogen to the job market before heading to work himself.

As soon as Jasper entered the first floor of the Star Enterprise's building, employees greeted him politely but kept their distance.

However, Zoey Layton, a recently hired employee, approached him with a nutritious breakfast in her hands and blocked his path.

Seeing her, Jasper was irritated.

Zoey's shy smile and affectionate attitude were evident as she offered, "Mr. Morrison, I made this nutritious breakfast for you. I hope you like it."

The employees passing by were stunned when they saw the scene. They thought Zoey was bold to pursue Jasper.

Jasper's expression turned gloomy, and he coldly stared at the breakfast for a moment. After some thought, he reluctantly accepted it. He said coldly, "Thanks." 

With that, Jasper walked past Zoey.

Zoey was overjoyed, believing that his acceptance of the breakfast meant he reciprocated her feelings.

The other employees were also shocked when they saw the scene.

A CEO accepted a breakfast from a new employee? Wasn't it obvious the treatment was unfair?

Feeling triumphant, Zoey beamed.

As soon as Jasper came out of the elevator, he tossed the breakfast into the trash.

His assistant, Tanner Day, approached. He handed over some documents to Jasper and said, "Mr. Morrison, I've gathered all the information on Zoey Layton." 

Jasper took the documents, glancing through them as he walked.

Tanner followed. "This evening, there's an interview on the financial channel you need to attend."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Jasper stopped abruptly. After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "Cancel it."

Tanner was puzzled. He asked, "Why, Mr. Morrison? This program has been scheduled for a long time, and—"

Jasper cut him off sternly, "No reason. I don't want to be on TV."

Tanner replied timidly, "Understood, Mr. Morrison."

Jasper walked to his desk and handed a document to Tanner. He instructed, "Take this to the HR manager and have him hire this girl for the aerospace R&D department." 

Tanner took the document with both hands. He was curious, so he glanced at the document.

Jasper assigned someone to the aerospace R&D department must mean she was exceptional.

However, the moment he saw the information on the document, he was stunned.

A graduate from technical school?
