Her voice sounded a little hoarse, but her smile was more beautiful than before. The hatred in her eyes gradually faded away.
"Jasper, I'm fine now. Let's continue to look for houses."
There were still two months left before school reopened. She had to solve their accommodation and schooling issues within three months.
"They will need all kinds of credentials and certifications in order to go to school. The government will allocate schools according to our current address. Let's find a house near a school. Even though the house will be more expensive, it'll be easier for mom to fetch the children home."
"Alright, it's up to you. Let's go!" Jasper smiled and suddenly saw a milk tea shop on the side of the road.
Jasper glanced at Eden with a sly expression on his face. "Eden, buy me a cup of iced milk tea. The food just now was a little salty."
"Alright. Let's go in and have a look." Eden slowly collected herself.
Both of them ordered their favorite flavors after they went into the milk tea shop.
There was a yellow smiling face sticker on the counter. Jasper suddenly had a strange idea. He picked up a sticker and gently stuck it on Eden's fair forehead.
He then smiled at her. His bright and handsome face was always pleasing to the eyes. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Jasper was slender, well-proportioned, and uniquely dressed. Even his hairstyle was special. He looked relaxed yet noble, and he really stood out from the crowd.
He looked at her smiling face and said, "Eden, remember, you have to be as happy as this stick from this moment onward."
"Got it!" Eden flashed him a bright smile.
Today was an exception. She would never do this again.
The two employees in the milk tea shop looked at them enviously. Jasper and Eden looked like a perfect couple.
They slowly walked out of the milk tea shop under the envious gaze of the shop assistants.
Eden's hair was flowing in the slight breeze, and her hair covered her beautiful face from time to time. Her bright eyes were sparkling on her dolled-up face. A hint of a smile flashed past her eyes.
"Jasper, this ice-cold feeling is so refreshing. But the milk tea doesn't taste good." Eden had already calmed herself down.
Her smile was as sweet and soft as before.
"Yes. It doesn't taste as good. You've turned me from a person who doesn't drink milk tea into a person who likes to drink milk tea. How about you take responsibility for my life as well?" Jasper said half-jokingly.
He felt all milk teas tasted the same, just that this particular milk tea tasted a little blander.
Eden rolled her eyes at him and said, "Jasper, you can't just casually joke about it. How can I be responsible for your life? It's your future wife's job!"
A hint of bitterness rose up in Jasper's heart after he heard that. Eden only treated him as a friend; she did not see him as a potential lover.
No matter how straightforward he was, she would not take it to heart.
What should he do?
"Yes! Jasper, there is a property agency here. Let's go and see if there is any suitable house on sale." Eden took a sip of milk tea, pointed to somewhere not far away, and walked toward the property agent's office.
The two of them walked over to the office. The glass wall of the property agency's office was covered with photos of various houses, the prices, and the locations.
The two of them glanced around and found that there was no suitable house.
This was just the first property agency. Eden was not discouraged that she did not find any suitable house here.
She looked for a house until ten o'clock at night with Jasper, but they did not manage to find the right house.
Some houses were located too far away whereas some houses were located on unsuitable floors of apartment buildings.
For Eden, buying a house was a big deal. She could not be careless in making a decision, so she was more careful.
She was extremely happy about owning her own house. It was her dream over the years because she wanted to have a place to call home.
She was wearing high heels, so she could not walk any further. She felt hungry again, so she accompanied Jasper to eat some snack before they returned home.
