Jasper had lost his self–control when Ingrid said that the wanted to look for a one–night stand. Now, she was doubling down on how there were plenty of men in the world—men who weren’t Jasper.
Jasper’s expression turned ugly “You can be angry. You can take your temper and frustrations out on me, just don’t say such unpleasant things.”
Ingrid nearly laughed. “Then why haven’t you let pren Cassandra? Is it because you’re still angry?”
