From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 503

Chapter 503: Chapter 500: What Does the Car Zane Jordan Drove Have to Do With Me, Jasper Shaw?

Chloe Sinclair’s eyes widened. She couldn’t help but ask, "Jasper, why would you think that?"

Jasper Shaw sounded a little aggrieved. "That Wyatt Thorne... he’s younger than me."

Jasper Shaw had always known his and Chloe Sinclair’s age gap was significant. His line of work over the years had also left him a little out of touch with the times.

But after meeting Chloe Sinclair, he had been trying hard to learn.

He learned how to use WeChat and Weibo. He even avoided the kind of stickers old men use, searching for plenty of new ones on Weibo to save to his WeChat.

Every time Chloe Sinclair messaged him, he would send a sticker back.

But in the end, he’d slipped up because of his age.

Seeing the look on Jasper Shaw’s face, Chloe Sinclair immediately knew what he was thinking. She said softly, "Jasper, why would you ever think that?"

Chloe Sinclair looked at Jasper Shaw and said seriously, "I don’t care that you’re... older than me. Besides, what are you worried about? My dad and brothers have already given their approval. If I suddenly switched to a new boyfriend, they’d probably break my legs."

Jasper Shaw didn’t believe that for a second.

He knew just how much the Sinclair family doted on Chloe Sinclair.

If Chloe Sinclair were to break up with him, he figured Mr. Sinclair and her brothers would probably set off firecrackers to celebrate.

But hearing her say that still made him feel much better.

Still, the thought of Wyatt Thorne soured his mood. He couldn’t help but ask, "What’s the deal with this Wyatt Thorne guy anyway?"

Chloe Sinclair replied, "Wyatt Thorne has a very ambiguous relationship with Yuna Sutton. But on the surface, he hasn’t accepted her. He’s probably a ’Sea King’."

Jasper Shaw immediately leaned in and asked with a completely straight face, "What’s a ’Sea King’?"

Chloe Sinclair: "..."

’I forgot,’ she thought. ’That term doesn’t exist yet.’

"A ’Sea King’ is someone who’s two-timing with who knows how many people."

Put in such simple and easy-to-understand terms, Jasper Shaw finally got it.

He frowned slightly.

’When I get back, I have to get Ian to do a thorough investigation on this Wyatt Thorne,’ he thought.

He had a feeling that Wyatt Thorne showing up at this time wasn’t as simple as it seemed.

The two chatted about a few other things, but before they could finish, the car pulled up in front of the private kitchen restaurant from before.

Jasper Shaw got out of the car first, then helped Chloe Sinclair out.

While the two were eating in a private room, they happened to overhear a few Emberfall University students chatting.

Chloe Sinclair hadn’t intended to listen, but unfortunately, the students outside the room mentioned a familiar name: Wyatt Thorne.

"Did you guys hear? There’s big news on campus."

"What?"

"You know the heartthrob of the computer science department? Wyatt Thorne, the guy who was harassing my goddess today. Someone beat him up as he was leaving campus."

Then came another surprised voice, "That bad, huh?"

"You have no idea. It gets worse. He was jaywalking and got hit by a Bentley."

"Holy shit, was it serious?"

That person replied, "Not really. I heard he just got a few scrapes. The Bentley driver was generous, too. Paid him ten thousand yuan and left."

"..."

The voices outside grew fainter, and Chloe Sinclair figured they must have moved to another spot.

But a sliver of doubt appeared in her mind.

’In my past life, I never heard about Wyatt Thorne getting beaten up, did I?’

’And by a Bentley?’

Chloe Sinclair subconsciously glanced over at Jasper Shaw.

Jasper Shaw had also heard the conversation. "I wasn’t the one who hit him with a car!"

Chloe Sinclair raised an eyebrow. "I didn’t say it was you."

Only then did Jasper Shaw realize he’d overreacted.

But he wasn’t lying. He really hadn’t been the one to hit Wyatt Thorne with a car.

Still, it was more than enough to handle an ordinary person. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
