443 Stay Away From My Daugh.
Aiter arriving at the airport, Anna parked her car in the parking lot and walked into the airport. However, she didn't find the blond
boy she wanted to see.
Then Anna asked a waitress at an airport fast food restaurant if she had seen him. The waitress blushed and exclaimed
excitedly, "Sorry, lady, you came here an hour late. He's already gone. | heard he found the girl he was looking for, and he left
with this mysterious girl. Several black cars stopped at the door just now, and a very handsome man invited him ins
"A gentleman?”
"Yes. He was about forty years old and looked very attractive.” The waitress blinked as if lost in a never-ending fantasy.
Anna was taken aback. As she realized what had happened, a shiver ran down her spine. She took out her phone and dialed
Jasper's number.
Jasper answered her call quickly, "Anna, what's up?"
"Does Alex happen to be with you right now?"
"Ill take care of this. You don't have to worry about it.” Jasper sounded tired. He didn't say much and quickly hung up the phone.
Alex couldn't help but look around and realized that he was in an empty parlor. The decor was traditional and solemn, and he
couldn't help but feel a shiver running down his spine and become nervous.
Sunk in the soft leather sofa, Alex somewhat felt at ease. He was sick 442 Stay Away From My Daugh. of standing around in
airports every day. But he remained on high alert. He fixed his attention on the man in the gray suit in front of him:
Jasper was tall and in good shape. He frowned as he carefully examined the document and didn't appear to want to be bothered
by anyone.
Alex had been waiting patiently. After looking up and counting the golden pendants on the crystal chandelier above, he lost all
patience. "Why did you bring me here?" he asked.
Jasper had just turned the final page of his paper when Alex asked him the question. With a friendly fake smile on his face,
Jasper stood up, leaned back and said to Alex seriously, "Alex Jones, | know who you are.”
Tossing one of the documents in his hand on the coffee table, he continued, "Your mother comes from France and she works as
a doctor.
Your father is American and he’s a professor at Columbia University. You have two sisters, one of whom is married to a Russian
businessman and the other one is also a doctor.”
Meanwhile, Jasper threw all the remaining papers in front of Alex. Alex could no longer maintain his calm demeanor. In horror
and rage, he
stood up and interrupted him, "What are you up to?" Alex clenched his fists and trembled all over. He had been trying to appear
friendly, but his anger was revealed.
"I know you've practiced boxing, young man. But you'd better not be so impulsive." Jasper turned his head to the line of guards
at the parlor's entrance, his contempt in his eyes challenging Alex's bottom line repeatedly.
Alex calmed down, despite his anger. He sat down again and maintained his cool.
Jasper's smile faded. He leaned forward, his arms propped up on his. knees, and he appeared as ferocious as a wolf. "I'm
Isabella's father.” He said calmly.
"S02"
"I would not stop my daughter from dating a guy. But what you're doing bothers her, and she doesn't seem to want to see you. If
you keep pestering her like this, II do whatever I can to get you out of her hair. Don't pull that dirty trick on Isabella, kid. You'd
better get back to your country by tomorrow." Jasper said as he was annoyed by this silly guy.
Alex was displeased and wore a defeated expression. He bowed his head, and his fists were tightly clenched. "But it’s
Valentine's Day tomorrow! Can | stay here another day?" In a soft, pleading tone, he asked.
"No," Jasper said firmly. He rose to his feet, casting a shadow in front of Alex. And the shadow seemed to strangle Alex's neck
like a hand, suffocating him.
"Send him back to the airport.” Jasper had left the parlor, but his voice could still be heard in this room.
An hour later, a black sedan arrived in front of a hotel. Jasper sat in the back seat, his cold and angry expression adding to his
oppressive appearance.
"Shall | get someone to escort him to the plane?" his assistant asked after a brief moment of thought.
Jasper's expression became even colder as he looked out of the window and waved his hand, "That's not necessary. Let's go
back.”
At the same time, Jasper's bodyguards had just escorted Alex back to the airport. But because the airport was crowded and
chaotic, he took 442 Stay Away From My Daugh. advantage of the situation and ran away. Alex hurriedly checked into a nearby
hotel and thought he was the smartest guy in the world. And he had no idea that Jasper knew where he had been.
Isabella had never responded to Alex’s messages and later blacklisted
him. Alex had previously told her he would meet her at the airport, so he didn't dare to go anywhere for fear of missing her.
He realized that he couldn't stay at the airport any longer, so he turned to the internet for help. He could only keep sending
Isabella friend requests. He knew if Isabella's father could find out information about his family members, he would know about
his past. Alex had been arrested in police stations several times since he was fourteen. And he was convinced that a man like
Jasper would not allow his daughter to date a guy like him, so he was even more upset.
As he lay in bed and stared at the ceiling, all he could think of was Isabella. She always wore a wide denim jacket with studs and
many colorful hairpins on her head. She was a charming girl; he could always spot her in a crowd. Later, Alex dozed off while
thinking about it.
The next day, Alex woke up with achy muscles all over. When he tried to sit up, he was surprised to find that his computer screen
suddenly lit up. Seeing the message on the screen, he rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming. Having checked a few
times, he was sure that Isabella had messaged him, inviting him to meet her.
It was Valentine's Day, and the streets had been decorated to create a romantic atmosphere throughout the city. Except for
Isabella, most pedestrians on the street walked hand in hand. Alex stayed a safe distance away from her. He wanted to be closer
to her but lacked the courage to do so.
"Did you irritate your girlfriend, sir? Maybe you could get her a flower *442 Stay Away From My Daugh. bouquet," A girl suddenly
tugged on Alex's shirt. She winked and smiled as she lifted the flowers in her hand to the tip of his nose.
"Sorry! I'm allergic to pollen.” Alex covered his mouth and sneezed several times before moving the flower away from his nose.
Then Isabella took advantage of the situation and fled. Alex ran after her as soon as he realized what had happened.
Alex trailed Isabella for a long time as if he would never give up. He made every effort to remain as close to her as possible. As
he finally managed to catch up with Isabella, he gave a gentle smile and said aloud, ‘-Are you hungry? I'll treat you to dinner if
you're hungry."
Tired, Isabella slowed down. She needed to rest. Also, Alex still didn't believe that she was hiding from him at all, and he seemed
to enjoy the game.
Having no other options, Isabella fixed her hair and said, "1'11 buy you dinner, and we'll have a proper conversation.”
Then Isabella took him to a small restaurant. She ordered what she wanted to eat and gave Alex a bottle of whiskey.
Later, the waiter brought them an appetizer and then opened the Whiskey bottle. She poured a glass for Alex first, then asked
Isabella if she wanted something to drink. Isabella shook her head and refused.
Alex felt strange after smelling a strong burst of alcohol in the bottle. He sniffed the whiskey and took a sip, promptly spit it out.
"| prefer guys who know how to drink," Isabella said icily.
Alex was about to set his glass down at the time. After hearing her words, he frowned and gulped down the whiskey.
Then Isabella smiled contentedly and poured him another glass.
"I'll be gone tomorrow." Alex said. He'd just finished his second glass,
his voice tinged with fatigue and sadness. Because he rarely drank, his face gradually flushed.
He said calmly, "I'm aware that your father dislikes me. | won't deny that I have done some stupid things in the past.'
Isabella blinked and asked warily, "Huh? My father? Have you met him?"
