Life at The Top novel Chapter 804

Jasper turned to look at her. Celine chuckled and pulled out a 100 US dollar banknote and waved it. “Look, the city’s owner.”

Stunned for a moment, Jasper then laughed aloud. “You’re right. So very right.”

“I want to own this US banknote of yours,” Jasper suddenly spoke after he finished laughing.

Celine’s smile vanished after he finished speaking and she stared intently at him, to the point where Jasper felt his hair rise out of caution.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Jasper asked.

Celine did not respond, but she stood and walked over to Jasper.

Jasper sat on his single sofa with Celine standing before him.

The wind continued to howl on the rooftop but it could not dissipate the warming tension between the man and the woman.

All of a sudden, there was a woman in his arms.

Feeling the gentle softness and shocking suppleness of the woman in his arms, Jasper’s mind sobered substantially.

“What are you doing?” Jasper asked, instinctively moving to push Celine off and stand.

Yet Celine seemed to have anticipated that, for she pressed his shoulder down with one hand and looked up at Jasper. “Are you really willing to push me away? Do you dare to push me away?”

Jasper instantly froze in place, and at the same time, he realized something. ‘How the f*ck is she so strong?’

Just as Jasper made a mental note to spend more time at the gym once he returned, Celine then wrapped herself around him and got closer to him. Her red lips whispered in Jasper’s ear, “But don’t you want to be my owner?”
