Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk-Chapter 954: Don’t Be Bound by Your Own Thoughts

"I’m doing something that I can’t tell Nora about, what should I do?"

Jasper Sinclair rarely confided in others, even when facing Nora Northwood, his demeanor was always the unyielding one.

In the eyes of outsiders, it seemed as though nothing could trouble him.

Uncle Kevin was ready to listen intently, "Since you can’t tell Madam, why not talk to me? You’ve been like this since you were young, swallowing your grievances no matter how big, over time, it’ll only suffocate you."

"The reason Nora was poisoned is because of Jenson Sinclair. He vented all his hatred for me onto Nora."

Uncle Kevin was startled at heart, the son of the second house was indeed so ruthless!

Despite the surprise, he needed to untangle the knot in Jasper Sinclair’s heart.

"So, sir, do you think Madam would link the poisoning to you, or the entire Sinclair Family, is that right?"

Uncle Kevin had been by Jasper’s side for over twenty years, naturally understanding his inner thoughts.

Their master-servant relationship had already developed an element of familial affection.

In Uncle Kevin’s anticipation, Jasper stiffly nodded, acknowledging it.

"Sir, why not try to recall, was it Madam’s first time encountering the second house’s young master, or any other person of the Sinclairs?"

Jasper didn’t quite understand why Uncle Kevin asked this question, but he answered truthfully.

"Neither."

"Another question, do you think Madam can’t differentiate between right and wrong?"

"Also not."

"Madam understands everyone’s character, especially yours. I believe if given more time, even if you don’t say anything, she’ll still be able to guess one or two things."

Hearing this, a sudden shiver ran through Jasper’s chest.

Indeed... how could he forget how intelligent his Nora is...

The voice by his ear continued, "So, you’re trapped by your own thoughts."

Such a simple logic, Jasper was trapped in it for days.

Love makes one strong, but also makes one foolish.

"Uncle Kevin, thank you for talking with me."

Those who sit high above are always solitary, since childhood, Jasper Sinclair rarely showed such a sentimental side.

Uncle Kevin felt relieved for him.

"No need to be polite, sir. I think you’ve already decided what to do next."

"Hmm."

Jasper returned upstairs, the lights in the bedroom were off, on the soft bed, there was a raised spot.

He looked at the small person, suddenly angry at his own actions.

How could he make Nora Northwood so sad?

A tightening sensation gripped Jasper’s heart, a pang of ache spread throughout his body.

He leaned close to the bedside, staring at the uneasy sleeper.

He wanted to kiss Nora.

Jasper thought so, and he did just that. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He bent down, propping his forearm on the pillow, pressing his lips onto Nora’s.

Her pink, tender lips were easily captured by him, lightly pecking, this kiss held no desire, only heartache.

Every touch from Jasper was so gentle, as if handling a rare treasure, fearing his actions might be too heavy.

As expected, Nora woke up.

Her sleepy eyes suddenly plunged into an abyss, Jasper’s back stiffened as he looked at her, his lips stopped moving, remaining still in place.
