Chapter 710 An Unexpected Encounter Jasper ended things with Evelina at the right moment. It was the sway he had started their relationship- perfect timing. Although Evelina struggled to accept it and clung on for a while, Jasper knew how to handle the situation smoothly.

He had long recognized Evelina as a woman who always wanted more than she could have.

After a few months together, they both got what they needed from each other.

When the tcto part ways, Jasper ensured Evelina received more public attention than she'd ever had since her debut.

Mixing both kindness and firmness, he finally convinced her to stop bothering him.

Jasper felt satisfied watching Violeta win an award. He sat through the entire award ceremony, despite her appearance only lasting about ten minutes.

It seemed like something a business mogul would do not for fun, but to keep an eye on industry trends. That day, with nothing better to do, he went to Mystique once again.

Now that his breakup with Evelina was public knowledge, Jasper found himself a target for many women eager to win his heart.

However, they didn't know that Jasper had already shut down any possibility of getting involved romantically again.

Later that night, he encountered someone familiar. After all these years, he was surprised that he still recognized Mandy.

"You are ..." "I'm Mandy. I'm surprised you still remember me. Seems like I haven't changed too much over the years." After graduating, Mandy moved to a different city for work.

Just a week ago, she was reassigned to Quinston to handle a client there. That evening, her client had specifically requested they meet at Mystique for business, so she had no choice but to go. She hadn't expected to bump into Jasper at the bar counter on the first floor. Upon seeing him, she initially thought she was mistaken. Though they'd crossed paths a few times before, she had let go of any unrealistic dreams she once had about him.

She faced reality with calmness. Fortunately, she had been through enough setbacks to know how to stay composed. She continued her education and gained a valuable qualification.

Over the years, she poured her energy into her work and was rewarded for her efforts. She was no longer the shy waitress who used to work in a corner of Room 303.

Jasper's gaze swept over her, his voice clear as he said, "Your face hasn't changed, but a lot of other things have." Mandy knew he was talking about her appearance.

Back when she worked at Mystique, she had been reluctant to wear skirts. Now, she was dressed in a sharp business suit, showing off her legs, something she'd always been inferior about. en "Your legs..." "I had surgery two years ago, and the recovery went well." Mandy shared it openly.

Jasper didn't hold back from complimenting her. "You were always meant to look this stunning." His casual praise caught her off guard, and she replied with a hint of surprise, "Thanks." Just then, her phone vibrated-her client upstairs was still waiting. She glanced at Jasper and said, "How long are you staying? I need to head upstairs. If you're still around later, maybe we can catch up." "No rush," Jasper replied. "You're not a waitress anymore. Go ahead. I'll probably be here for another half hour." Mandy nodded. "Alright." She didn't intend to make him wait. After all, she wasn't sure if she'd be able to finish in time.

Encounters like this were up to fate, and she couldn't force them.

She went upstairs while Jasper turned his attention toward a female singer performing on stage.

Luckily, the meeting went smoothly.

As if fate was on her side, the

client's wife called about an emergency at home, asking him to leave early Within 20 minutes, Mandy had escorted the client downstairs.

After settling the bill, she returned to the bar counter and was relieved to see that Jasper was still there. The ve content is on novelenglish.net! Jasper raised an eyebrow in amusement. "You didn't just send your client away with an excuse, did you?" "Of course not," Mandy replied, taking a seat next to him and ordering a glass of juice.

"I've thought about this a lot-meeting you back then felt like an honor. You were a huge help to me, and I've always wanted to express my gratitude if I ever got the chance."
