Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 143: I Really Like It

Sabrina Hayes was completely stunned by this action, instinctively covering her forehead, reacting a beat too late.

His behavior was somewhat... beyond the scope of normal friendship.

However, she didn’t dare to think too much about it.

After all, the image of him at the gala tonight, so full of a cold and commanding presence, was still vivid in her mind.

Maybe he found her troublesome and was displeased?

Sabrina’s heart tightened slightly as she cautiously observed his expression.

Unexpectedly, Jasper Fitzgerald didn’t seem as distant as she had imagined.

The man before her now was no different from the one in Veridia.

The aura of keeping strangers at a distance had disappeared, replaced by a familiar warmth.

For some reason, her mood inexplicably improved, and she hurriedly explained, "I didn’t learn it from anyone... It’s just that you were busy at the time, and I was afraid of disturbing you."

Jasper’s expression was stern, "If you had told me, would I have ignored you? You’re sick and don’t rest properly, just wandering around? Gifts can be given at any time, there’s no hurry."

Sabrina realized belatedly and understood.

He was indeed angry, but he was blaming her for not taking care of her health.

Although Mr. Fitzgerald was of noble status, it seemed that nothing had changed.

Sabrina immediately felt more at ease and smiled at him, "After dinner, I wasn’t feeling that bad, and besides, I wanted to surprise you."

Jasper’s eyes deepened slightly, his tone indifferent, "I think it was more of a shock. If I hadn’t gone out at the time, who knows where you might have ended up after fainting right in front of me."

Sabrina felt a bit embarrassed as well.

She had left the house in the evening, fearing that the medicine would make her drowsy, so she hadn’t taken precautions.

The cold had come on unexpectedly strong.

She vaguely remembered the situation when she fainted...

As far as she remembered, she seemed to have fallen into a warm embrace.

The comforting warmth and scent made her feel especially secure.

Had Mr. Fitzgerald held her at that time?

She was slightly unsure and didn’t dare to think further...

To avoid dwelling on this topic, Sabrina quickly changed the subject, "Do you like the gift?"

Jasper found her abrupt topic change quite amusing.

It was the first time he had seen her display this kind of evasive attitude.

Nonetheless, having scolded her verbally seemed sufficient, and he was certain she wouldn’t dare make the same mistake again.

Jasper decided to go along with her topic, "I haven’t had the chance to look at it closely. You should eat something first to settle your stomach before taking the medicine. I’ll examine the gift later."

As he spoke, he served Sabrina a bowl of chicken congee.

The congee was perfectly warm and fragrant.

Sabrina needed nourishment while she was ill, so she did not refuse and began to sip it slowly.

Jasper took advantage of the moment to once again examine the bracelet he had quickly glanced at in the ballroom.

The sandalwood beads were round and lustrous, emitting a pleasant woody aroma, and they were undoubtedly expensive. As for the intricately carved pattern, he hadn’t recognized it before, but now he saw that it was a dragon.

The inside of the beads were inlaid with jade and contained medication, clearly crafted with great skill.

Jasper’s eyes paused, and he asked Sabrina, "What made you think of giving this?"

Sabrina hesitated for a moment and answered honestly, "I often see you wearing a string of Buddha beads and thought... they look good, so I figured you might like these. I went to great lengths to find a dozen sandalwood beads. The wood itself has a calming effect, and the carved design represents your Chinese zodiac sign...

The jade inside was specially inlaid to prevent the medicine’s scent from clashing with the wood. With the jade as a barrier, this situation can be avoided.

I heard that after you do psychological counseling for special operations team members, you experience insomnia.

The medication is specially made to assist with sleep, to improve your sleep quality, and if you hold it close when you have a headache, it can also provide relief..."

At this point, Sabrina seemed a bit embarrassed, "This isn’t as valuable as the jade piece you gave me. I hope you don’t mind."

Upon hearing this, Jasper’s eyes grew even deeper.

He did not care about the gift’s value.

Instead...

"Did you make this bracelet by hand?"

The angle from which he asked was different.

"Not entirely. The carving and jade inlay were done by a master craftsman. The rest was..."

Sabrina looked a bit worried, "Is it not strung well? Although I consulted professionals, it was my first time making something like this, and my technique might be a bit clumsy, possibly not as good as what you can buy!"

Jasper was momentarily at a loss for words, simply gazing at her with unusually deep eyes.

Sabrina felt inexplicably anxious.

What was that look?

Did he not like it?

On second thought, it made sense.

Considering his status, there probably wasn’t a single cheap item on him.

Even the watch on his wrist was worth over a billion, not to mention the diamond cufflinks and other accessories.

They were likely priceless!

As Sabrina was hesitating whether to change the gift, she saw the man in front of her put the bracelet on his wrist.

His hands were already very attractive, and the bracelet on his wrist had nearly the same visual effect as the Buddha beads.

The aura of noble abstinence, like that of The Devoted One following commandments, was even stronger!

Sabrina couldn’t help but glance twice, for some reason, her heart skipped a beat.

Jasper was evidently pleased too, with a rich and gentle voice he said, "For me, a gift made with care has more value than so-called ’price.’ I really like it!"

Sabrina’s eyes lit up, "Really?"

Jasper chuckled softly, "Have I ever lied to you?"

Sabrina shook her head, no.

So, he really liked the gift!

Thus, tonight’s trip was not in vain!

Perhaps after getting to know him better, realizing Jasper was still the same, Sabrina gradually relaxed, returning to her familiar demeanor.

She talked about her business trip to Aethel, including the successful dinner with two directors tonight, her eyes bright and filled with confidence.

Jasper quietly listened and agreed, "I think this cooperation is probably the best choice they will ever make in their lifetime."

Sabrina was amused, "I think only you trust my abilities like this?"

"Why not trust you? From the time at the military district compound, I’ve witnessed every miracle you’ve created, Miss Nash, more outstanding than anyone else."

This was undoubtedly the highest form of validation for her!

Sabrina’s heart felt touched.

It wasn’t just because of his words, but also because of his address.

He used to call her Dr. Nash, but now it was Miss Nash?

She wasn’t sure why, but those three words made her ears tingle and burn slightly...

Nash Spencer, who had been standing by the door, kept an eye on their conversation and interactions.

He felt an inexplicable sense of ’compatibility’ between them!

Both of them were equally attractive, and there was no doubt about Dr. Nash’s capability; her future was limitless, more than a match for his master!

Not to mention, his master’s attitude towards her was quite extraordinary.

If something were to happen between them in the future, the entire high society of Aethel... would surely be shaken up!
