Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 704

"Alright."

Turning around, Skyler noticed Mandy standing at the door.

After a moment's thought, Skyler signaled the supervisor to let Mandy go up.

"Her? She's never been there before. I'm worried she might offend him."

Skyler smirked. "She's different from the others."

It was the perfect chance.

If Mandy messed up, she'd be fired right away.

If Jasper liked her, she could potentially become someone who could approach him in the future.

Either way, everything rested on how well she seized this opportunity.

The supervisor nodded and made the necessary arrangements.

Mandy made her way to Room 303, not knowing that it was all a test set by her superior.

Carrying the tray of wine and fruit, she knocked and entered the room, unaware she was being used as bait.

Inside, Jasper sat on the couch, smoking and distracted by his phone.

At first, he didn't pay attention to who had entered until Mandy set the wine on the table and said, "Your wine is here. Do you need anything else?"

Upon hearing her voice, Jasper looked up.

"It's you."

After seeing her twice before, Jasper now recognized her.

Mandy smiled softly. "You recognize me this time."

Jasper put down his phone, signaling her to pour the wine.

Bending over to pour, she finally caught his serious gaze.

Mandy was wearing Mystique's men's uniform, which made her stand out.

"Don't Mystique have women's uniforms?"

"Yes, but I requested to wear the men's uniform," she said, briefly pausing before explaining further.

With his legs crossed, Jasper looked at her with a playful expression. "Why? I thought you were supposed to be a greeter. Why are you up here?"

His memory was good.

The first time they met, Mandy had been outside, welcoming customers and seeing off drunken customers.
