Chapitre 876: Saturday at Jasper's apartment (1)

~ Chicago ~

October 5

Ellie is standing in front of the door of Jasper's penthouse. She was excited to see him after two days, but now that she is right here… she is nervous.

The doorman who greeted her with a big smile and let her in without even making a call to Jasper made her even more uneasy.

Ellie would probably not be in this tense state if she didn't talk to JoAnna previous day. And then that array of messages this morning. Really. Why did JoAnna ask those silly questions about liking someone and even mentioned love? Ellie was so distracted by her conversation with JoAnna that she could not make herself respond to Jasper's text messages. There is no way that she can tell Jasper that she likes him. She can imagine that smug smirk becoming his permanent feature if she ever tells him. It will be beyond irritating.
