Chapter 127

“You must tell me if Jessica ever comes after you, okay?” requested Amelia uncertainly before sheadded, “We’re friends, and we shouldn’t hide things from each other.”

The entire feud started because of her, so Amelia didn’t want to cause Casper any more trouble. Hehas already helped me so much…

“Okay, I promise. If she ever comes after me, I will definitely let you know,” promised Casper.

He was frustrated, and a little exasperated about how persistent Amelia was.

He understood where Amelia was coming from, but he didn’t think that dainty women like her shouldtackle problems that huge.

Hence, he felt like he had no choice but to lie.

“You must do the same, alright? If Jessica ever comes after you, you must let me know right away,”requested Casper as soon as he made his promise.

“Okay, it’s a deal,” replied Amelia with a smile.

Unfortunately, neither kept their words when Jessica actually attacked.

Back in Giselle’s dorm in the school.

Giselle received some news from Darwin Entertainment.

She had already promised Casper that she would live stream on his platform and knew that thecompany representative would get in touch with her.

She also knew that, given Casper’s style, they would offer her a lot of money, even though she wouldn’tsign the contract.

What she didn’t expect was that they would offer a whole lot more than she imagined.

Casper actually started planning for everything when Giselle first agreed to help him out. He set theterms and conditions in person before sending it to Tiana.

These conditions and offers are even better than what A-list social media influencers make! Plus, thiscontract isn’t time-sensitive!

In other words, Giselle could leave her post any time she wanted to, and there would be noconsequences.

Casper knew that Giselle had no intention of working online permanently. That was why he set therules beforehand.

The contract was pretty much a money-delivery system with rules that were blatantly bullying someone.Naturally, Giselle was not the one who was being “bullied.”

Giselle felt speechless when she saw the terms listed in the contract. She honestly didn’t know what tosay.

She understood that Casper was giving her the space and the economic benefits to be free.

They lived in a world where visual stimulation was critical. Online streamers who only shared theirvoice but not their looks probably wouldn’t trend for long without some form of support.

Giselle understood that despite being somewhat popular at that moment, she would not last long as anonline streamer.

After all, the internet was a place where talent and skills were ample. Without companies makingstrategic marketing and shocking reveals, other videos would likely drown out Giselle’s videos, and shewouldn’t be able to rise back up again after that.

Giselle felt touched. Something within her heart was humming, and it wanted to reveal itself to theworld. Unfortunately, she had no idea what it was. All she knew was that she really wanted to seeCasper.

She knew that what she felt for Casper was a little different, and she could admit that she truly foundthe guy charming. Not to mention, his cooking is undeniably amazing! But she never thought that thatcould mean anything.

Besides, their roles were impossible. She was a teacher, and he was her student. Giselle never evenconsidered seeing him romantically.

Even if she ever had any ambiguous thoughts, she would have likely nipped it right in the bud.

Unfortunately, it seemed that she could no longer contain the emotions bursting out of her heart.Giselle sighed exasperatedly.

Still, she never regretted taking Casper in as a friend.

Frustrated yet unregretful… I don’t even know how to describe what I’m feeling now.

But I guess love is love. Since I’ve fallen for him, there is nothing I can do now except accepting it.

After coming to that conclusion, Giselle called Casper.

“Where are you?” asked Giselle.

Casper was surprised and delighted when he received a call from his goddess. Thing was, the two ofthem had each other’s number for a while, but they often only texted.

Giselle rarely called him up like that.

Hence, it was only normal that Casper was delighted.

“I’m at school. What’s up, Ms. Clauder? Did you miss me?” teased Casper while smiling brightly.

Hearing that tone made Giselle feel like slapping him right across the face. However, there was nothingshe could do.

She actually missed him and his cooking.

“Are you free tonight? I-I miss your cooking,” said Giselle. She was so embarrassed that her voice waspractically inaudible toward the end.

“Huh? What did you say, Ms. Clauder? It’s a little noisy here, so I can’t hear you,” said Casper. Healmost couldn’t contain the laughter in his voice when he got to the end of his sentence.

Naturally, Giselle noticed it. She gritted her teeth and took a deep breath before announcing loudly, “Imiss your cooking. May I know if you are free tonight?”

Her cheeks flushed red with embarrassment after that.

Hearing Giselle speaking in that tone finally broke the last shred of defense Casper had. He couldn’thelp snickering a little when he replied, “Well, since you’ve already requested it, Ms. Clauder, it’s onlyright that your student makes the time for you. Shall I drop by your place later, Ms. Clauder?”

Casper even emphasized the word “student” when he spoke.

That got Giselle to feel even more embarrassed. She tossed a quick reply before she hung up. “Okay,then I’ll wait for you here,” said Giselle.novelbin

Hearing Giselle’s words and her embarrassed tone made Casper feel like he could see her blushing inher dorm. Ah, that is just too cute. It should be a crime to be that cute.

His mood instantly took a sharp turn, and he was no longer gloomy. Even his footsteps had becomelighter.

The issue between Jessica and Remy suddenly seemed so small and easily solved.

Casper felt like when the love of his life was with him, every bad emotion just slipped awayimmediately. She was like his feel-good pill.

Casper grinned and walked to the place he was headed to.

It was the classroom where Jessica was in.

Casper had just entered via the backdoor when he saw Jessica with her legs crossed, sitting in the lastrow, and was chewing gum with a bored expression.

It was obvious that she wasn’t interested in the class at all.

Casper entered and sat beside Jessica.

She scoffed when she tilted her head up and saw Casper there. After that, she asked, “What? Is theresomething you’d like to say?”

She hadn’t heard from the thugs she hired since yesterday. Obviously, this man being here hassomething to do with their sudden disappearance.

She had already investigated Casper and knew that he was no ordinary guy. Despite that, she couldn’tget herself to let go of her anger.

Those thugs probably failed and were fooled into revealing my identity.

Jessica secretly cussed at the thugs she referred to as idiots. She had spent a small fortune to hirethose men, but to her surprise, they turned out to be useless.

She felt like she was doomed, but she didn’t show it on her face. Instead, she waited for Casper tospeak up.

“Yesterday, my ‘girlfriend,’ Lilian, was kidnapped. Do you know who the culprit is?” asked Casper whilegrinning.

Jessica thought, F*ck! I knew it. Those useless idiots messed the mission up. Despite her thoughts,Jessica would never admit to being the mastermind.

“Why are you asking me about it? Do you think I did it? Please. It’s not like you’re worth the effort.Seriously, who do you think you are?” dissed Jessica.
