Imogen retreated to her room and locked the door. Without hesitation, she booted up her computer and started searching the internet for "Jasper Morrison".
The results flooded in with numerous headlines, though most were disappointingly uninformative. Yet, one title caught her attention. With a swift click, she plunged into the article and absorbed its content eagerly.
After reading the information, she was completely taken aback. It turned out that the CEO of Star Enterprise went by the name Jasper Morrison. Strangely, there was hardly any online coverage of the company's CEO, not even a single photograph.
Imogen's unease deepened with each passing moment. She swiftly grabbed her phone and dialed Eloise's number.
After a few rings, Eloise answered. She held the phone to her ear and greeted, "Hey, Imogen!"
"Aunt Eloise, I need to talk to you about Ash. He—"
Imogen's words faltered as Eloise interrupted apologetically. "Imogen, I'm so sorry. I'm so scatterbrained. I forgot to tell you earlier. Ash's father passed away, so he couldn't make it to your date. He asked me to let you know, but in all the rush to attend the funeral, it slipped my mind."
Instantly, Imogen felt unsettled. Panic surged through her as she anxiously glanced at the door. Was the man here not the same person Eloise had introduced to her?
Eloise continued, "Imogen, please don't blame Ash for not showing up. His father's passing has really affected him, and he's having a hard time right now. Can we delay the blind date for a bit? Would that be alright with you?"
Imogen felt a knot in her stomach. She gulped, her hands trembling as she asked in a shaky voice, "Aunt Eloise, is the Ash you introduced me to still in our hometown?"
"Yes, he's still around. What's the matter?"
Imogen gulped again, feeling a prickling unease crawl over her scalp. Suddenly, a knock sounded at the door, causing Imogen to startle. She turned nervously to glance at it again.
"Imogen, are you asleep?" Jasper's gentle voice came from the other side.
In a hushed tone, Imogen spoke into her phone, "Aunt Eloise, I need to go now. I'll catch up with you later."
