My Four Miraculous Treasures

What was she to do? She only wanted to check if the tire could be mended instead of needing a replacement.

The cost would be cheaper that way.

She hadn't expected Jasper to show up here.

He had even caught her in the act and claimed that she was interested in his car.

How was she to explain her way out of this?

Also, why did Jasper summon her to his office?

Willow felt uneasy but was too scared to disobey.

Jasper was too intimidating.

She calmed herself before entering the elevator. Instead of heading to the highest floor, she went to the janitorial department first to report in for duty.

Jessica came up to her immediately and dragged her to the washroom to ask curiously, "Willow, do you have a special relationship with Mr. Hughes?"

Willow was stunned. "What do you mean?"

"I saw you getting into his car yesterday and he took you away. If you don't have a special relationship with him, why would he take you instead of me?" Jessica asked.

Willow was speechless.

Here was a new problem before she even solved the first one.

She had been worrying about the reason why Jasper summoned her, and now Jessica was asking such a question.

Heavens knew what rumors would circulate in the company if someone found out that she had slept with Jasper.

It would surely be something along the lines of her being shameless and using her body to her advantage. She only wanted to work hard and earn money for milk.

"Mr. Hughes asked me to work overtime yesterday," Willow said guiltily after coming up with an excuse. "Work overtime?" Jessica was confused.noveldrama

Willow smiled awkwardly. "Yeah. Hughes Corporation has many branches. One of them hasn't recruited janitors yet, so Mr. Hughes had me clean up the place."

said.

Willow nodded with a smile. "Sure, I'll bring you along next time. It's time for work, let's get to it." Willow breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the washroom. She took the elevator to the highest floor.

It was fortunate that cleaning the highest floor was her responsibility. That way, no one would suspect her for going there.

She stood before the CEO's door and mentally prepared herself before mustering her courage and knocking on it.

"Come in," a stern voice responded.

Willow entered.

Jasper's tall stature was casually leaning back in his black chair. His slender fingers were tapping on the desk. Still, he looked dignified and serious.

Willow approached him and said

carefully, "Mr. Hughes, I merely noticed a needle on your tire and wondered which naughty child had punctured the car of such an esteemed figure. So I pulled it out

out of goodwill."

Upon hearing this, Jasper got up and went to her.

The air seemed to stir with pressure as his tall figure closed in. Willow's breath hitched and she subconsciously backed away.

Jasper took one step forward and Willow leaned back in response. She was about to fall.

His arm hooked around her waist and pulled her into his embrace with a tug. He looked down at her, enveloping her with his domineering aura, and said, "How did you know that it was a child's doing?
