“Who else can she be? It’s Sophia Kirkman’s second daughter, Lauren Beckett,” Zoe grabbed the
chance to tell on Landon.
She casually teased, “Landon hasn’t been home lately. He’s built a love nest with Ms. Lauren out there,
where they spend most of their time. The last time Mom was sick, I was the one who got her to the
hospital. I guess Landon’s put his family behind even before marrying Ms. Lauren.”
“Zoe, can you please stop?” Penelope mumbled, not because shel wanted to protect Lauren. She

“It’s him! Jasper Beckett’s here!”
All attention shifted to Jasper’s direction as the shutters clicked away. Hearing that, Zoe perked up and
cast an expectant glance at the other end of the red carpet.
There, she found Jasper clad in a black suit, wearing an aloof expression on his face. His eyes exuded
the same arrogance, and each move exuded an imposing presence.
His cool demeanor had captivated the interest of many females, including Zoe.
Penelope had to tug at her daughter and whispered, “Zoe, let’s move. What are you standing here for?”
“Mom…” Ogling Jasper, Zoe nearly salivated at his handsomeness. “I love Jasper so much. How I wish
I were his woman.”

was undressed. Through his suit, she felt his toned body and went numb at the sensation.
Since that night, she couldn’t help but fantasize about how it’d feel to be underneath him as she
pictured them making love. She was driven. crazy by her desire for him.
“You need to pull yourself together or risk becoming a joke. A young lady should behave with

Penelope failed to hear Zoe’s words. With a frown, she questioned, Zoe, what was that? Why were you
talking to yourself?”
“Mom, go ahead without me. I’ll wait for Jasper and enter with him.”
