Chapter 3553
At that moment, Jasper’s phone rang and she saw that it was
a call from William.
When she answered, William’s voice came through, “Jasper, where are you? Your dorm mates said you didn’t come
back
this afternoon?”
“I’m out right now and won’t be able to get back to school for a while,” she replied.
“Then I’ll wait for you and we can have dinner together,” William said.
Jasper was about to agree when Roger, who was nearby, suggested, “It’s already dinner time. Let’s find a place
nearby to eat first.”
Jasper was about to agree when Roger, who was standing nearby, said, “It’s already dinner time. Let’s find a place

“Jasper, who are you with?” he asked.
“I’m with Roger now, um… William, why don’t you go ahead
and have dinner without me? I’ll eat outside and come back to
school later.”
After a moment of silence on the phone, William said, “Okay, should I come pick you up later then?”
“I don’t need to, I’ll come back after finishing my meal,” Jasper
said.
After ending the call, she looked up and saw Roger looking at her with an indescribable expression.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
“Nothing,” he shrugged. “Was the person who called you just now your friend?”
“Yeah, I’ve known him since we were little. His name is
William,” she said while observing his reaction.
What disappointed her was that his face remained calm after hearing the name.
“Have you heard of this name?” she asked.
“I have,” he replied.
Excitedly, she asked, “When did you hear of this name?”
“William, your childhood friend Jasper’s name, is well-known in school. You can find it on the school forum,” he
explained.
“I see.” She sighed. Ever since their scandalous photos were posted on the school forum, the popular threads have
been speculating about the relationship between the three of them.
“How else do you think I found out?” He retorted.
She rubbed her nose, once again wondering if he was really Lawrence and if his claim of not knowing was

After the trial ended, all the kidnappers were sentenced to 7-15 years in prison. As for Lionel, since he was a minor
and evidence showed that his initial intention was xo.com fast updateonly a fake kidnapping, and Jasper and
Veronica both issued forgiveness letters for Lionel, he was released on the spot.
Archer and Rosalind were crying and laughing while holding their son, while Veronica stood aside, looking like an
outsider.
Jasper wanted to go over and talk to Veronica, but William
next to him pulled him back and said, “Don’t go over there.”
“But what about Veronica?” Jasper asked, feeling worried.
“If you go over there now, it will only make her more embarrassed and uncomfortable. Besides, with your situation
with Mason and her, what do you plan to say to her? Are you going to tell her not to worry or tell her to go find
Mason again?” William advised.
“Because it seems like you always enjoy mocking me,” she said. “I don’t dislike eating noodles here, nor do I think
the environment is particularly bad or the food is too simple. I didn’t always live a comfortable life since birth. Until I
was five years old, my mother and I ate simple boxed meals and sat on the side of the road eating bread…”
Although it happened before she turned five, many memories of her early life remain hazy or even forgotten.
However, she still recalls some aspects of her life during that time.
