496 Did You Drug Me?
After getting into the car to isolate himself from the hustle and bustle of the road, Jasper shut the door. As he leaned back against the driver's seat, ready to take a break, his cell phone vibrated.
He didn't move and waited until the phone rang again before answering the call.

She nodded, "But you should stay for dinner. Don't worry. I'll only take up an hour of your time. In fact, | plan to settle here as well.”
"What about your property in New York?" Jasper asked, surprised.
“| want to sell it," Lily responded calmly as if this was not a pivotal moment in her life.
When Jasper saw her calm expression, he stopped asking questions about it. Back then, when he divorced her, he left her with many properties. He would allow her to decide what she wanted to do with them.
