NovelEnglishChapter 279 You Don’t Owe Me Anything “No worries; you are quite fast. Girls usually take at least two hours of preparation before leaving the
house.” Kate teased him, “You seem to know women well!” Jasper guffawed. “Haha, I’m alright.
Anyway, my older sister takes at least two hours before leaving!” Kate commented, “In that case, she
must be a refined woman.” “I can’t tell if she’s refined or not, but she is rather vain!” Jasper remarked.
Then, he took her suitcase from her.
Kate followed him out of the door. She locked the door and added while smiling at him, “Are there even
girls who aren’t vain these days?” Jasper turned around to glance at her and grinned. “Well, you aren’t
vain.” Kate was dumbfounded when she heard that. Isn’t he saying that I’m not a girl? Do I truly look
like a man? “Are you criticizing me to my face? Do you still plan to cooperate with us?” Jasper laughed
while answering her, “Why are you in such a rush? I’m not done speaking.” The two entered the
elevator while chatting along the way. Soon, the elevator shut its doors.

Kate was rendered speechless when she heard that, but she also had to fight the urge to burst out
laughing. Then, she snorted proudly. “Although it took you long enough to come up with an excuse, you
managed it well anyway. I’d say you’ve passed the test somehow!”
Jasper acted as though he was scared witless. “I was terrified; thank you for not penalizing me for
speaking slowly!” Kate cackled loudly. “How was that slow? You were just exaggerating! Let me tell
you; you have finally met someone who isn’t calculative, like me. Have you watched this sketch before?
It’s a story about a man having a drink in the bar. The server asked him if he would like to open a bottle
that cost 19,800. The man was so shocked when he heard it that he started stammering, ‘You S-s-s…,
as the server popped the bottle of alcohol open. Finally, the man blurted out the rest of the sentence,
‘You shouldn’t.” Coincidentally, the elevator doors opened at the end of the story, and the two of them
doubled over with laughter. Jasper regarded her with loving tenderness. “Thank you for saving me
19,800!”
Kate laughed out loud, and she was just about to humor him when she saw a familiar figure from the
corner of her eyes. His hair was messy, and he had a stubble. The figure was staring at them fixedly.
Kate’s heart skipped a beat, and she felt her breath catch. We hadn’t seen each other for a night, but
he looks like a completely different person now. Landon did not sleep the entire night, but he didn’t
have the courage to meet Kate. Hence, he figured that he would wait for her downstairs, just so that he
could see her the first thing when she got out of the building. I didn’t expect two people to show up.
They are both leaving together early in the morning. Did they spend the night together? His heart
throbbed painfully, and he finally understood what Kate felt when she saw him together with Melanie. I
suppose she must have wanted Melanie dead. However, I was so protective over her at that time.
Landon stared at Katie while speaking tentatively, “Katie, I have something to say to you.”
However, she took a step toward Jasper in silence. “Do we… have anything to discuss?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm· Landon answered her, “Mm-hmm, I have some things I need to speak to you about in
private. I won’t take too much of your time. You just have to give me ten minutes. I’ll be done in ten
minutes.”
Strangely, he had a begging tone, and Kate’s heart softened at that. She inhaled deeply while turning
to look at Jasper. “Can you wait for me for a while?” Jasper glanced at Landon while nodding in
response. “Sure, I’ll wait for you in the
car!”
With that, he walked away with the suitcase in his hands, and he made his way in the direction of his
car. Kate regarded Landon. “What did you want to talk about?” He closed his eyes slightly. “I’m sorry. I
didn’t know that you…” Kate felt embarrassed for some reason when she heard that, but she
maintained the last shred of her dignity. “No need for that. You don’t owe me anything. Compared to
your girlfriend, it’s only natural that she is more important than I am. I can’t fault you for defending her.
It’s just that I don’t think I can be like before.”
