Chapter 1031
Jasper couldn’t help but smile as he carefully set his jacket down and walked over to lift Imogen into his arms.

Imogen let out a surprised gasp and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck. Her heart raced, cheeks turning pink as a wave of warmth washed over her.

He carried her into the house and settled on the couch, seating her on his lap. Their proximity pressed them close. A lingering air of romantic uncertainty enveloped them. Imogen felt a blush spread across her cheeks.

Jasper’s voice was husky and tender as he asked, “Have you had dinner?”

Although Imogen hadn’t eaten yet, she nodded. “Yes, I have.”

Jasper tucked a strand of her long hair behind her ear. He looked deeply into her flushed and lovely face, his Adam’s apple bobbing. “You still haven’t told me where you’ve been.”

“I interviewed successfully and started a new job. I was so thrilled that I went to visit my parents,” Imogen replied.
