At that moment, Imogen was extremely flustered.
Jasper looked down at her trembling hand resting on the back of his own. Then, he turned his hand to hold hers, gently rubbing her palm.
He could feel the sweat in her hand, so he knew that she was truly scared.
Jasper comforted her, "You're my wife. How could I ever report you? I'm just reminding you that what you're doing is wrong and illegal."
Imogen nodded vigorously and replied, "I know, but I've already taken the money. I'll finish this project, and I promise I won't take on such freelance work again."
Jasper asked, "Then tell me, what exactly is this project?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, Imogen murmured with her head lowered, "The space agency's latest Dragon Arrow 2 flight database has a system linkage bug. They outsourced it to me to fix it."
Jasper was stunned.
Seeing his silence, she looked up but saw his shocked expression.
Imogen resigned as she said, "It's not that the space agency doesn't have people who can fix it. Some opportunistic employees want to make themselves look good, so they take on such tasks and then find people like me, who have the skills but lack the credentials and job opportunities, to do the work.
"I get paid, they get the credit and rewards, maybe even promotions."
Jasper sighed lightly. As he gripped Imogen's hand tightly, he leaned back on the sofa. His expression darkened, and he felt uncomfortable.
Thinking about Zoey's actions, which led to Imogen's current desperate situation, made him furious.
Imogen peeped at Jasper's expression and noticed his anger, but she didn't understand why he was so upset.
She asked anxiously, "You won't report me, will you?"
Jasper furrowed his brow, lost in thought.
However, Jasper fixed his gaze on her lips, gradually drawing closer to her.
Her heart raced faster and faster, her breathing became even more erratic, and her body felt increasingly warm.
Feeling her face heat up, Imogen closed her eyes and mustered her courage to kiss him.
As soon as her lips touched his cold lips, an indescribable thrill surged through her, making her body stiff.
She didn't move. She quietly kissed his lips, breathing in his pleasant scent.
She didn't know how long she needed to kiss him to show sincerity.
Just as she was wondering, she felt a hand on her waist, slowly pulling her into his embrace.

There's no 1079 and 1080 :(...
I lost the interest to continue the novel.Too many characters....
So we are shifting to a different story now? Was this not Nathan and Wanda's story? So this story will continue as Sierra and Daniel's right?...
Oh God I'd die broken-heart if Sienna and Daniel doesn't end up together happily ever after!!...
More chapters please...
This is bullshit. Why cant she just be honest. Saying bunch of things to hurt him thinking it wont hurt him in future. How much more dumb can she be. She is really hanging my patience level by thread....
Why cant she just say it. Why is it so hard to say??...
Hello, more chapters please. Thank you...
