Helena didn’t know what it meant. She slept peacefully, her hands gripping Jasper’s pajamas.

At 5am, Jasper woke up from his nap.

Opening his eyes, he saw that a head was buried in his chest. The collar of his pajamas was torn open and her forehead was pressed against his skin, her body temperature normal and slightly sweaty.

He was sharing a bed with a woman for the first time and it felt so fresh and happy and sweet!

He couldn’t help but laugh out loud, [reserve is a good thing, but unfortunately you really don’t have it. But what’s the point of having that? It delays the kissing and hugging!] He couldn’t stop smiling and was in such a good mood!

Helena woke up naturally.

She was left alone in the bed, the place where he had slept cold and icy, not knowing when he had left.

She got up and washed up and came out of the bedroom to find that the tiles in the hallway had been replaced with wooden floors, so that it was not slippery to walk on them with bare feet. A new shoe cabinet had been added at the entrance to the staircase, with seven different colours and styles of women’s slippers.

On the edge of the shoe cabinet, there were many handmade paintings. The paintings are playful, with cute images, all with warm reminders: the floor is slippery downstairs! Change your slippers before you go downstairs! Don’t catch a cold!

Helena smiled: Jasper is really warm!

She changed into slippers and stood at the top of the stairs and looked around: Jasper was not downstairs in the living room. A stack of papers lay on the dining table in the living room. The fish in the fish tank were colourful, fast and lively.

She took a few steps down the stairs, the door to the living room suddenly pushed open and Jasper appeared in the doorway, twirling a few packets of stuff. Seeing her standing on the stairs, he hurried in again and said, “You’re awake just in time, come down for breakfast. I’ve bought a lot of crystal buns, with crab filling, shrimp filling, and the signature bean paste filling.”

“How do you know I like crystal buns?”

“Wendy told me.”

“You went to the North End to buy it?”

“It’s good in the North End, and she said you love that one. I had nothing to do anyway, so I went out and bought it for you.”

“You don’t have to work today?”

Jasper laid out the breakfast one by one, pressed her into a chair, and then put the milk and eggs in her hand: “You, the breadwinner, are sleeping, why should I work? I’m not going to work! I want to enjoy being raised!”

Helena’s face was sullen: “It’s true that I support the family, but I didn’t give you money, where did you get the money to buy breakfast? Jasper, the money you advanced counts as your voluntary allowance, don’t think I’ll pay you back.”

“Don’t you think you are shameless?”

“You are shameless too.”

“So you want to be the same as your husband?”

“……” Helena was speechless as she clipped a crystal bun and stuffed it into her mouth, not wanting to hear him flirt.

He swallowed the crystal bun, his mood soaring high. He gathered the papers on the table and pulled another chair to sit next to her: “Helena, let me tell you: I didn’t advance a single penny, every cent I spent was yours. When you were unconscious, I asked Joey to take your ID card, go to the bank and get a brand new bank card, and then go and borrow two million from loan sharks.”

The crystal bun that Helena had picked up fell onto the table: “Two million? Loan shark? Are you crazy?”

Without going crazy, Jasper pulled out a notebook from the pile of documents. Inside it was a brand new bank card, “This is your new card with another eight hundred thousand in it.”

The crystal bun Helena picked up again fell to the table for the second time: “You just said two million, and in the blink of an eye, it’s eight hundred thousand? Jasper, you spend money on all your breathing? Can I withdraw from the marriage? Can I return it for no reason? You’re too costly for me to keep!”

Jasper smiled from ear to ear: “One million for a car. Two hundred thousand was transferred to me for living expenses. The remaining eight hundred thousand are in the card. The interest rate on the loan shark is ten thousand, and the repayment is made on the 20th of every month. Transfer it to my card.”

“You’re my debtor?”

“I just want to make some pocket money.”

“……” Helena didn’t want to spend his money or drive such a nice car. He wanted to give her security, and she was under pressure because she could not give him anything: the marriage was a contract, nothing to do with feelings, much less love.

Jasper knew what she was thinking and took out a few newspapers and put them in front of her: “What happened in the past ten days has been reported in various media. Right now, the Yip family, the Riley family and the Doyle family have a tense relationship, and the person they all hate in common is you. You should not return to work recently, let alone appear in front of them.”

Helena did not want to go back, she wanted to find a new job and stay away from the Yip family.

Jasper took out another document and put it in front of her, “This is MC’s base training, I’ve signed you up and you’ll go over for the training. The purpose of the training is, firstly, to have the skills to defend yourself, and secondly, to participate in the ‘Seven Day Wilderness Survival Marathon’, where the participant who successfully walks to the finish line can win a prize of three million.”

Three million? Two million for loan sharks! She would get to the end and have the money to pay back Jasper!

She was interested and picked up the brochure to take a look, when Jasper handed her another document: “This is the contract to pick up the car. I’ve chosen ten cars for you, so you can pick the one you like and drive it away. After that, you will go to the base to see Nate Dawson. He will take you to get familiar with the environment and give you a training programme. You have a total of two months of training time. After the marathon, there’s a jewellery competition. I’ll sigh up for you and the first prize is the same three million.”

The marathon and the jewellery competition were both new projects that Jasper had improvised: he didn’t want her to be under financial pressure, and he didn’t want her to be near the Yip family. By sending her to the base, she could avoid the Yip family and practice her skills to protect herself.

He went to work and she went to the car dealership to pick up the car.

After picking up the car, she didn’t go to the base to look for Nate, but went to Shampe Beauty Salon: “Excuse me, is Miss Murray here?”

The receptionist said, “Miss Murray is in her office. Miss, do you have an appointment? If you don’t have an appointment, I have to ask Miss Murray if she could see you. If you have an appointment, please tell me the registration information.”

Helena said, “I don’t have an appointment. My name is Helena Yip and I would like to ask something of Miss Murray.”

The receptionist told her to wait, and soon a beautiful woman came out from inside and waved at her, “Helena, come here.”

Helena smiled and walked over to her, calling out sweetly, “Emily, it’s been a while.” Emily Murray was Hugo’s ex-wife. Helena had come over to find her because Helena wanted to ask her about her identity.
