From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491: Chapter 488: A Good Match, My Ass

Chloe was a little surprised to hear that. She glanced over and, sure enough, spotted the man in the back seat of the Bentley parked diagonally across the street.

She could only manage a helpless smile. "Excuse me, I should get going."

Nathan Trenton didn’t mind. He nodded, and after watching Chloe Sinclair get into the car, he turned and headed back into the university.

The moment she sat down in the car, Jasper Shaw looked up. "What were you and your senior talking about? You look so happy, hmm?"

Chloe froze for a second, her gaze on Jasper Shaw’s face a little dazed.

She was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly found the situation amusing.

"Are you jealous of my senior?"

Jasper Shaw hadn’t expected Chloe to figure out his little scheme. He felt a bit awkward at being caught red-handed.

And yet, he couldn’t help but feel wronged. "You probably spend more time with your senior than you do with me. What kind of boyfriend spends less time with his girlfriend than some outsider does?"

Chloe had no way to argue with that.

Ever since her rebirth, she had been determined to reach greater heights on her own to avoid repeating the hardships of her past life.

The nonstop experiments made her wish she could split herself in two just to get everything done.

The time she spent with her family, and with Jasper, was far too little.

Jasper’s words served as a wake-up call for Chloe. By the time the realization hit her, her back was soaked with sweat.

She looked at the man before her, his eyes full of grievance, and felt a pang of guilt. "My senior and I only discuss academic matters. Don’t read too much into it."

After a pause, Chloe thought about her upcoming schedule.

"Don’t worry. Owen Warren’s team is already about seventy percent done with the new leukemia drug. It should be finished this month. I’ll probably be busy for a few days after that, but then I’ll have more time."

She didn’t tell him why she would still be busy for a few days after the drug’s development was complete.

Jasper, however, wasn’t focused on that. He thought Chloe had misunderstood his intentions.

He’d only meant to play the victim a little so she would have lunch with him today, but he hadn’t expected to make her worry so much.

So he decided to just keep quiet.

It had nearly driven him mad with anger. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
