Chapter 27
1/4
During his two or three days in Australia, Jasper continued to work.
Wherever he went, he took me along so I could learn.
He said he hoped that one day I would be able to handle tasks and situations independently.
“I actually…”
You don’t really want to work.
“Right.”
If you don’t want to work for others, then you need to develop management skills.
“Oh.”
He’s such a huge pervert and a total evil capitalist.
He found me lots of materials about business for me to study.
And in bed, he would test me on what I’d learned…
Bro, do you have some kind of fetish or something?
“Why are you crying again?”
Chapter 27 “It hurts.”
“Can’t you handle it? I’ll be gentler then.”
I…

Actually, I was crying from pure ecstasy.
But I wouldn’t say that out loud.
It would blow his mind.
On our last day in Australia, we had dinner with my father.
After the meal, my mother brought out a birthday cake.
I was very surprised.
“Mom, why are you here?”
“I’m here to see my son, what else?”
I understood this was another arrangement Jasper had made.
He had been quietly doing so many things for me.
The whole family celebrated my 22nd birthday together.
It was the happiest birthday I’d ever had.
While eating the cake, everyone watched me. Only when I bit

into something hard did they all relax.
“What’s this?”

Jasper looked at me and said with a smile, “Looks like a ring.”
“What does that mean?”
“Maybe the bakery owner dropped it in there. It looks valuable. You could sell it, or I could put it on your finger?”
“Put it on!”
“Put it on!”
Me?
They seemed to have planned this in advance.
“Alright, I’m not joking anymore.”
He took out a bouquet of roses and knelt on one knee.
“I bought the ring, and I bought the flowers. I want to take care of you for the rest of my life. Will you give me that chance?”
It would be a lie to say I wasn’t moved.
Everything he had done for me, I had seen it all.
He was very wealthy, but he never measured our relationship. with money.

He always guided me to improve in his own way.
Led my whole family toward a better future.
He respected me and my family.
I couldn’t find any reason to refuse him.
With a choked voice, I said those words.
“I do.”
“I love you, Sara.”
“I love you too.”
At the moment of sunset, we kissed in front of our family.

Finally, we nestled together watching the ocean and the sunset.
In that moment, a single glance contained eternity.
