Chapter343
The food on the plate had already cooled down, but Brayan continued to eat with a knife and fork. Onlookers couldn’t tell if he was enjoying the meal or just going through the motions.
When Jennifer came out of the bathroom, she found Clarence still standing there.
“What’s wrong?”
Jennifer asked worriedly, “Did Brayan give you a hard time?”
“It’s not…” Clarence shook his head, hesitating to speak.
He couldn’t help but ask until he and Jennifer returned to their seats, “Jenny, have you and Brayan… already divorced?”
“Yeah!”
Jennifer didn’t really understand why Clarence suddenly asked this question, and he asked it hesitantly, but she answered very decisively.
“Well, that’s good…”
Clarence didn’t say much either, and they quickly moved on to other topics.
However, Brayan’s words “What if Jennifer and I didn’t actually get divorced” felt like a thorn stuck in his heart, and he couldn’t seem to pull it out in the short/term.
Brayan and Jennifer, along with Clarence, started eating at almost the same time, but Brayan, being alone, ate faster than two people.

After he paid the bill, he stood up and glanced casually at the window
Jennifer and Clarence were still cating, chatting and laughing.
He looked away and took out two gift boxes from his pants pocket.
Stuffed one back in.
The gift box that was stuffed back in was given to him by Davon, he didn’t even know what was inside.
He returned the gift to his dad because it was his dad who bought it for Lainey.
Brayan opened the gift box in his hand.
What was inside didn’t quite match Brayan’s identity.
It’s a pair of keychains.
Two plastic beads shaped like little rabbits, one male and one female, hugging tightly together.
Brayan couldn’t figure out how he ended up buying this stuff.
Before heading to Speysal, he happened to pass by a school where someone was selling these things at the school gate, very cheap, just over ten dollars a pair, and students were buying thèm non–stop.
Brayan didn’t know what got into him at the time, he even bought a pair and had them gift–wrapped at a store.
The packaging fee was tens of times more expensive than this keychain.
He clearly didn’t have a girlfriend and didn’t know who to give it to.
According to his social circle, whoever he sends will be disliked.

Besides…
Brayan left this keychain on his own table.
After midnight, it’s no longer Valentine’s Day.
Catalina waited in the studio until the next day dawned.
In the pitch–black office, only the light from the phone screen illuminated Catalina’s face like a ghost.
Lilia told her that girls shouldn’t,
too forward, if you chase after
guys, they’ll think they can control you.
She listened.
Also did as told.
But ended up missing the chance to spend Valentine’s Day with Brayan.
Because Brayan didn’t reach out to her.
Catalina opened her phone’s contacts and reached out to someone.
But not Brayan.
Recently, Jennifer’s career has been picking up. She made some money from a few deals and used it to buy a cheap second–hand car.
Because she was alone, it was really inconvenient for her to deliver jewelry to many customers without a car.
Before we had a car, Clarence mostly drove her to her clients.
Clarence was always happy to do it, but Jennifer couldn’t keep treating him like a chauffeur all the time.
Chapter343
Tonight, she had just finished delivering jewelry to a customer when she received an unexpected call from someone.
“Hello, Ms. Griffin, I am Jasper’s mother.‘
Madeline’s voice coming from the receiver sounded weak and tired.
Jennifer furrowed her brows slightly.
The car drove for about two hours, from downtown all the way to the
suburbs.
This was Jennifer’s first time at Jasper’s house.
Madeline was waiting for Jennifer at the villa gate early.
Jennifer last saw Madeline at the Manning family’s beach house in Priusiland.
At that time, Madeline was acting like a crazy person, showing her teeth and waving her arms.
But now Madeline is like a completely different person from back then, looking so haggard as if she’s at death’s door.
Jennifer didn’t ask much, she just followed Madeline into the mansion.
Madeline had already explained it to her on the phone.
As soon as Jennifer walked into the villa, she saw Janet sitting on the sofa in the living room, giving her a fierce glare.
Jasper’s room was on the second floor. Madeline opened the door with a key and only let Jennifer go in.
Jasper’s bedroom was quite big, which actually made Jasper look even thinner.
Jewler was stummed
In front of me. Jasper was sitting weakly on the ground, looking as there as a lightning bolt
Madeline told Jennifer on the phone, Jasper hasn’t eaten anything for whole week

Chapter343
Jennifer was stunned.
In front of me, Jasper was sitting weakly on the ground, looking as thin as a lightning bolt.
Madeline told Jennifer on the phone, Jasper hasn’t eaten anything for a whole week.
No matter who advised, no matter who threatened, it was useless.
Madeline said she had already lost one son and couldn’t lose Jasper.
As long as Jennifer could persuade Jasper to eat, Jennifer could offer any conditions.
