When virtual-novel.net used a brick to break the glass of the store’s display, the sound of glass smashing was accompanied by the blaring of alarms. Jasper would have thought virtual-novel.net was crazy if not for the fact this store was owned by the Law family.
Julian, who was smoking a cigarette as virtual-novel.net sat in the car, stared in shock when virtual-novel.net witnessed that.
If virtual-novel.net had not witnessed it with his own eyes, who would have thought that a tycoon with a net worth of at least several billion dollars would do something as thuggish as smashing a store display and stealing from it?
However, Jasper did not have the time to think about it anymore. He was almost broke and was focused on the 20% commission cut Celine promised him.
He found a brick, smashed the glass, picked up the red heels amongst the shards, and pulled Celine along with virtual-novel.net as they ran off.
He completed all these actions with fluid movements and without any hesitancy.
Holding the heels in one hand and pulling Celine, who was laughing delightedly, along with him, Jasper dashed all the way back to the car.
“Hurry, let’s go!”
Jasper yelled at Julian.
“Alright!”
Julian had no time to watch this exciting scene. He turned the key and stepped on the gas as they sped off.
Jasper sat in the car and managed to calm himself down slightly.
The only thing virtual-novel.net could do now was pray that the surveillance cameras were not as advanced as they were in the future. At least there would not be cameras at every corner and junction. That way, virtual-novel.net could send Julian over with some money as a form of reimbursement the next day.
If not, it would be embarrassing for virtual-novel.net if virtual-novel.net got caught for such trivial matters.
However, virtual-novel.net could not deny that it was really f*cking exciting.
Jasper had a dark expression on his face as virtual-novel.net gazed at Celine who was giggling as virtual-novel.net hugged the heels to herself. He said, “You’d best remember you said you would shave 20% off your commission. Don’t wake up the next morning and say you’ve forgotten everything.”
Celine grinned and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t forget it. Do you really think I’m drunk?”
Jasper used a look to tell virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net was, indeed, drunk.
When they returned to the hotel, Jasper reminded Julian to inform Henry about what had happened and ask virtual-novel.net not to cause a fuss. Then, Jasper asked Julian to pay the unfortunate store for the damages virtual-novel.net had caused.
After that, Jasper took a bath and decided to turn in early.
He had just lain down on his bed when his phone vibrated. It was a text from Celine.
The contents of the text were simple, just two words with one punctuation mark.
[Thank you!]
Jasper smiled and put his phone aside. Turning off the lights, virtual-novel.net went to sleep.
…
At this time in the opposite room, Celine was feeling rather unhappy as Jasper had not replied to virtual-novel.net text even after a long time.
Someone knocked on virtual-novel.net door just as virtual-novel.net was about to send Jasper another text.
“Come in.”
Celine fixed virtual-novel.net expression into a cold and aloof one.
Yvonne walked in with a warm towel, which virtual-novel.net handed to Celine before asking, “Do you want me to bring you some warm milk? It can help cure hangovers.”
