Jasper finally smiled, a wave of relief washing over him. It would be his first time dining with her when Elsa was not around.
He would treat it like a date. He couldn't help but think of Elsa's delight at seeing him with Abigail. This thought alone was joyful.
The corners of his lips curled slightly.
"Let's go." He stood up and walked out quickly, hiding his joy.
Abigail followed him out, her bag slung over her shoulder.
They came to the parking area and got into his red Mustang.
The car began to move down the road.
His fingers were drumming on the steering wheel. Jasper was ecstatic. Today, one of his dreams came true.
He had always wanted to take her on a long drive, and she was finally sitting beside him in his car. This sensation improved his mood. At this point, the exhaustion and annoyance he had felt after interviewing the candidates vanished.
He couldn't help but take a glance at her.
She was silently looking out the window, not even looking in his direction.
