From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 492

Chapter 492: Chapter 489: I Have No Obligation to Accept Your Interview

Jasper Shaw’s hand, holding his chopsticks, paused. A flicker of confusion appeared in his eyes.

But then he suddenly started to laugh.

He said half-jokingly, "Last time I went to the hospital, the doctor advised me to be a kept man."

Chloe Sinclair didn’t catch the joke. Hearing that Jasper Shaw had actually gone to the hospital, she immediately grew tense.

Right now, Jasper Shaw was much younger than he would be in ten years, and his physical constitution was also better.

In ten years, Jasper Shaw would suffer from frequent stomach aches due to constant business dinners and drinking.

He had to stick to a bland diet most of the time.

Chloe Sinclair couldn’t bear the thought of her man suffering like that in this life, too.

"You went to the hospital? What did the doctor say?"

A trace of worry was on Chloe Sinclair’s face. She studied Jasper Shaw’s complexion, only letting out a sigh of relief when she saw its healthy, rosy hue.

Jasper Shaw had only been joking and hadn’t expected to worry the young woman.

He didn’t dare joke anymore and quickly said, "I was just teasing you. I’m really fine."

He had a habit of exercising in the morning, so he had always been in excellent health.

The hospital visit was just for the mandatory annual physical required by his superiors.

But no matter how Jasper Shaw tried to explain, Chloe Sinclair remained suspicious.

"How about this? The apartment will be finished by the end of the month. When it is, I’ll get up and exercise with you every morning."

This time, Chloe Sinclair didn’t refuse.

"I get up very early."

Jasper Shaw faltered for a moment. Recalling Chloe Sinclair’s wake-up time on *Country Life*, he gritted his teeth. "I can get up that early."

Only then did Chloe Sinclair relax.

At the table, Jasper Shaw only ate a few light green vegetables, continuously placing pieces of meat from the main dish into Chloe Sinclair’s bowl.

After dinner, they left the private restaurant. Zane Jordan had already been waiting in the car for a while.

He hadn’t eaten with his boss and his girlfriend; instead, he had gone to the noodle shop next door to grab a bite.

When he saw the two of them emerge, he opened the car door.

But this caught Chloe Sinclair’s attention.

Across her two lifetimes, she had only seen Zane Jordan three times—once in her past life and twice in this one.

In her past life, after an error was found in some documents, Zane Jordan had come to the villa. He and several other unfamiliar men had stayed in the study for an entire day and night before emerging.

She had happened to run into them as they came out.

Yet in this life, she had already seen him twice.

The first time was when Jasper Shaw brought men to rescue her. During the fight, Chloe Sinclair had paid special attention to Zane Jordan, and even then, she’d felt he was different from Jasper’s other subordinates.

Zane Jordan had an air of mystery about him.

Besides, his name felt strangely familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

Chloe Sinclair couldn’t quite place it, so after getting into the car, she found herself staring at the back of Zane Jordan’s head.

This, of course, made Jasper Shaw incredibly jealous.

He then pressed the button for the privacy partition, completely separating the front and back seats.

Zane Jordan, who was completely innocent in all this, was left speechless.

’This boss of mine has a few screws loose.’

Chloe Sinclair was also at a loss for words.

’My boyfriend is a little petty.’

So, Chloe Sinclair shot Jasper Shaw a cool glance.

As it turned out, she found Jasper Shaw already looking at her.

Their eyes met in mid-air. Chloe Sinclair stared into his dark, ink-like eyes and froze for a second.

Chloe Sinclair let out a breath and muttered, "So petty."
