Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk-Chapter 914: The Ending He Fabricated

When the two of them left, the lights in the screening room had already come on.

Nora Northwood saw the crumpled paper in various shapes, unsurprisingly stained with the tears of many girls.

The ending of the film was completely different from what Jasper Sinclair had described.

In the movie, the protagonist’s wife, tormented by illness, did not live past thirty.

While alive, the wife yearned for freedom. After her death, the protagonist sold everything in the city and moved to a small coastal town known for its warm climate year-round.

There were no guesthouses as some might expect; in the end, he died in melancholy.

Jasper Sinclair, of course, wouldn’t relate this "terrible" ending to Nora.

She would undoubtedly be more pessimistic than those crying girls.

Much later, Nora stumbled upon an analysis of the film on social media, only then realizing she had been deceived.

Jasper Sinclair had spent a fortune to create a sequel with a happy ending to prevent her from shedding tears.

...

Back at Crimson Hill Villa, Nora didn’t even want to shower; she just wanted to collapse into bed.

She felt as if her steps were floating. If she didn’t sleep, she would certainly meet sudden death.

Her biological clock had already adjusted to a long three to four-hour nap every day, and suddenly changing this habit made it hard for her to adapt.

Jasper Sinclair let her sleep, helping her remove her heavy coat, wiping her body, and then changing her into comfortable pajamas.

After wrapping up everything, the man went alone to the study.

The matter of poisoning could no longer be hidden from Nora, and he needed to expedite the decoding progress.

Ideally, he should finish before the virus takes effect.

He contacted Louis Hayes and asked over the phone, "Have you found the source of this drug?"

"According to adjustments, the raw materials were imported from Elysia. A pharmaceutical gang was busted, but they had tight lips and revealed nothing of value." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Revealed nothing?" Jasper Sinclair seemed to have heard an outrageous joke.

If someone is unwilling to entrust you with sincerity, there are only two possibilities: the temptation is not big enough.

Clearly, the pharmaceutical gang was not the former, leaving only the latter possibility.

Their lifeblood had not yet been gripped, Jasper Sinclair said, "Start with the family members around them, or take them to the underground base."

"Understood."

"By the way, there’s one more person you can try contacting."

"Who?"

"The Shepherd Family’s adopted son, Yvonne Shepherd’s brother."

Louis Hayes suddenly realized that the Shepherd Family navigated gray areas skillfully, investing heavily in this adopted son.

The last time, when Jasper Sinclair bailed Yvonne out from the police station, allowing lovers to reunite, their adopted son would surely give them this favor.

With this lead, the upcoming tasks would become much smoother.

Subsequently, Jasper Sinclair handled a few business matters in the study.

When he returned to the bedroom, it was nearing midnight.

He saw Nora Northwood with her eyes open and thought he had woken her, so he immediately apologized.

In this world, the only person who could make Jasper Sinclair say "I’m sorry" was probably Nora Northwood.

The latter said softly, "You didn’t wake me up. I’m well-rested and feeling hungry."

Due to Nora’s poor mental state, they skipped dinner and returned to Crimson Hill Villa directly after the movie.

By this time, the cook was also resting, so Jasper Sinclair had to cook himself.

He asked, "I’ll cook for you. What do you want to eat?"
