Chapter 22
He drove me home, maintaining complete silence in the car throughout the journey.
I knew he was upset, but I couldn’t figure out exactly why.
He didn’t speak, and I didn’t dare to break the silence.
When the car arrived at my building, he walked me to the elevator.
“I’ll be going now. Thank you for today.”
Just as the elevator arrived, he suddenly pulled me into the hallway.

He pressed me against the wall with his body, lowered his head, cupped my face with both hands, and kissed me.
My heart raced uncontrollably as I felt his warm breath suddenly so close.
He began by tentatively kissing my lips, and when he noticed my mouth opening to breathe, he slipped his wet tongue inside.
Just as I was about to struggle, he captured my tongue and passionately leased and licked it.
God, how could he be so skilled at kissing!

My mind exploded like a burst of fireworks.

Before long, his kiss had left me completely weak, barely able to stand without leaning against him.
He kissed me until I was breathless before finally releasing me.
He lowered his head to look at me.
“Will you ever dare to kiss someone else again?”
I was completely dazed.
“No, I won’t.”
He glanced at my flushed face, then pulled me into his arms and held me for a while.
“Alright, I’ll take you upstairs.”
“Oh.”
Suddenly remembering something, he took my hand and led me outside.
“Wait a moment, I need to get something from the car.”
I followed like a puppet under his control, letting him guide me.
He walked to the car and handed me a box.

“Take this upstairs.”
“What is it?”

“I almost forgot to give you the white house you wanted because I was so upset.
I took the box, completely shocked.
My first thought was: over a million dollars takes up so little space?
Seriously? He’s just casually giving me over a million dollars.
“I can’t accept this.”
“What’s wrong? Don’t you like it?”
“I don’t dare to like it.”
This million–plus dollars could land me in prison for 20 years if I accepted it.
He thought for a moment, quickly pulled out a pen from his pocket, and tore a page from a notepad.
“Voluntarily gifted to Sara. -Jasper. January 31, 2025.”
“There, don’t worry. Legally speaking, this bag is yours now. You won’t go to prison.”
I was stunned.

Thank you, legally–savvy domineering CEO.
He took my hand and returned to the door of my apartment.
Just as I was about to open the door, he pulled me back and kissed me.
“Don’t go in yet. Let me kiss you again.”
So he pressed me against the door and kissed me for half an hour.
The hallway lights turned on and off, off and on, in an endless cycle.
Just like him.

During our final kiss, his breathing became noticeably heavier, and he even had a physical reaction, but he still wouldn’t let me
- go.
Just then, my phone rang.
It was Chloe.
“Sara, my boyfriend just asked me to spend the night at his place. I told him you’d be scared alone, so I decided to come back. I’m pretty good to you, aren’t I?”
