Ingrid’s face went pale, unsure whether to confront Zelda first, get Brandon to explain, or gauge Jasper’s reaction. She hadn’t done anything wrong, but she felt guilty for some reason
Danden and Jasper locked eyes. He wondered if Jasper would still be so blatant in helping her if he knew about Ingrid’s past with him.
“What’s going on?” Jasper stepped forward, his focus entirely on Ingrid
Ingrid panicked but quickly composed herself. “This lady misunderstands my relationship with Mr. Geppard,” she explained calmly.

He said, keeping his expression neutral, “Ingrid and have indeed been in a relationship, but we didn’t make it public.

Jasper smiled politely. “Aren’t you with Henry now? Why come here to make trouble for Mr. Geppard?”
The moment those words left his mouth, both Zelda and Brandon went pale. Zelda had always denied anything with Henry in front of Brandon, but now Jasper was blatantly calling her out. Zelda baked in disbelief, her voice rising, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Jasper raised an eyebrow, “Did I remember wrong? Should I call Henry to double–check?”
He held Ingrid’s hand with one, while pulling out his phone with the other, scrolling through his contacts.
The seconds felt like an eternity. Ingrid stood frozen, secretly wondering if Jasper was really serious could he be blufting?
Zelda seemed to think the same thing–until, with the press of a button, a man’s surprised voice came through the speaker. “Mr. Clifford, do you need something?”
Jasper casually responded, “Just had a question. Did you ever date Zelda?”
The man was curious. “What’s this about?”
Jasper grinned. “Just gossip.”
The man laughed “Never dated. We just slept together. Why are you asking this?“–
Jasper responded molly, “Alright. We’ll talk later. I’ll hang up now.”
The phone clicked off, and the room went completely still.

On the other hand, Zelda looked utterly stunned. After a long pause, she finally said, “Jasper, have I wronged you in any way?”
Jasper maintained his calm demeanor. “You called my girlfriend a mistress. I could hear you from hallway down the hallway.”
Zelda frowned, her voice sharp. “Your girlfriend Do you even know that she’s slept with random?”
Ingrid’s blood rushed to her face, and she instinctively tried to pull her hand away.
Jasper tightened his grip on hea hand without flinching know she and Mr. Geppard had a normal relationship, which they ended. Now, Ingrid is my girlfriend.
“For the sake of your years together, Brandon might excuse your cheating, your trouble at the hospital, and your backstabbing of others.
“But I’m not that forgiving. We’re not close. Say another word about my girlfriend and see what happens.”
