From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 256

Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Calling the Boss Back for Overtime

"But it seems like you and Mr. Styles know each other quite well?"

Chloe was slightly taken aback, not expecting Jasper to still be concerned about this.

Looking at his earnest eyes, Chloe let out a soft laugh. "I exercise in the mornings, and Mr. Styles and his teammates often run on the apartment paths for their training. We just got to know each other over time."

After she spoke, Chloe raised an eyebrow. "Is there anything else Mr. Shaw would like to know?"

Chloe’s delicate voice tickled his ear as she leaned close.

The moment Chloe leaned in, Jasper’s whole body tensed. He could smell her faint, fresh scent.

He realized he’d said too much and rubbed his nose, trying to conceal his inner fluster.

"Just asking."

Even so, Jasper was still in a good mood today.

He reasoned that Chloe and Shawn Styles had only met a few times, and she had never brought another man back to her apartment.

Most importantly, she had even hinted at inviting him back.

And so, the usually stern and impassive Jasper Shaw wore a faint smile.

When Ian Winters rushed back to pick Jasper up for overtime, he found his boss holding a cup of coffee and chatting cheerfully with Miss Sinclair, a doting look in his eyes.

As someone who had just gone through a breakup, the scene left a sour taste in Ian’s mouth.

"Ahem."

Though he hated to shatter the pleasant atmosphere, Ian couldn’t help but clear his throat, drawing the gazes of both Chloe and Jasper.

Before Ian could even speak, he saw Jasper, who had been all smiles just a moment ago, shoot him a sharp glare.

Instantly, his scalp tingled, and a chill ran down his spine.

Ian braced himself and said, "Boss, should we head back to the office now?"

There was a mountain of urgent work waiting. If they didn’t go back now, it would just pile up for tomorrow.

Jasper didn’t say anything, which only made Ian more nervous.
