Chapter 27
Initially, Zachary didn’t want to be a third wheel, but ghen the strict regulations regarding active–duty pilots, especially concerning personal matters, he had to caconsider. When Interacting with female colleagues from outside, they must report to the organization.
Eve special background investigation beams would conduct thorough political reviews of the women arvolved, which could be quite intimidating for them.
If Zachary opted out, the nature of the meal would change. Jasper would have to report the outing honestly to his superiors, and Natalie would also be subject to scrutiny by the organizzion Having finally soon some potential for Jasper’s relationship, he didn’t want these rules to scare off Natalie. So, he willingly accepted his role as the third wheel, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed and a self–sacrificing expression as he glanced at Jasper
Jasper was oblivious to Zachary’s thoughts. His brows were furrowed as he stood in front of the mirror, and his lips were slightly pursed as he meticulously adjusted his collar, ensuring there wasn’t a single wrinkle in sight
He was dressed in a perfectly called military uniform that fit him like it had been measured to perfection, evading an air of uprightness with broad shoulders and long legs.
Even a man like Zachary couldn’t help but want to catcall at him, with those looks and still single at 15 years old, he was practically a loss for all the women.
“Let’s go,” Jasper said casually, glancing at Zachary before stepping outside. Zachary followed eagerly.
As they exited the dormitory, Henry hurriedly approached from down the corridor, stopping in front of them with a smile. “Jasper, there you are. Just in time!
Today, Mr. McClure’s daughter has arrived at the base. She’s the new doctor at our medical office, and you should show her around and help her get acquainted with the environment Jasper stopped and declined without hesitation. “I’m sorry, but I have something to and to outside today. Other colleagues in the team can show her around”
Assuming it was just an excuse, Henry remained unfazed and continued to pursuade him, “You could take her out for a bit. You’re both young and might have common interests.” Zachary quickly placed things together. Troy Mcclure’s daughter coming to the base and Jasper being asked to show her around was clearly a disguised matchmaking attempt! It was evident that Jasper understood the underlying implication as well. His lips pressed together, his face clearly showing reluctance.
Unfazed, Henry tried to convince his “The young lady graduated from Gadesh Medical University, and her mentor is the head surgeon at the Guclesh Military Region Hospital. “Initially, she was going to work at the military hospital, but considering hat father, she decided to join the Air Force Special Operations Team’s medical office. You wouldn’t want the base to love such a talent, would you?”
His words not only introduced the woman’s background but also urged Jasper to consider the situation from the base’s perspective.
Yet, Jasper remained indifferent, responding coolly, “If she doesn’t want to come to the base, we can’t force her to stay.
Hanry had anticipated that getting him to agree to a blind date wouldn’t be easy, and a glint of cunning lashed in his eyes. “Whether she stays or goes depends on you, right? Besides, she’s already waiting downstairs by your dorm.
“She’s seen your photos and knows you’re supposed to show her around today. If you really don’t trant to, you can talk to Mr. McClure yourself. I have work, so I’ll take my leave.” With that, he turned and walked away.
“What do we do now, Captain Locke?” Zachary asked, feeling the pressure. Troy managed the entire Air Force Special Operations Team’s funding and resources, so they had to tread carefully
“Why don’t we just take her with us? You can head off once we leave the base, and I’ll take her around”
