Alyssa squinted coldly at Silas. "You called me earlier tonight and worried that Axel would make a move on Jasper. Why the sudden change in your attitude?""So it was you who ratted me out! Silas, you little shit!" Axel scrunched up his eyes and gritted his teeth. "I'll tear you into pieces!""How dare you speak to your brother like that? You little rascal! Lyse, don't hold back. What he needs is a good lesson. You should have thrown him into the fire." Silas decided to add fuel to the fire since Alyssa wouldn't listen to him anyway. Knowing Axel was in grave trouble, he wanted to stay out of it. "Axel, are you not ashamed of yourself for talking to Silas like that? Aren't you going to admit your fault?" She was incensed."What fault? I beat up Jasper just for you!" Axel was adamant and rebellious."You wretched thing!" Alyssa slapped the armrest but accidentally pulled on her wound. She moaned in pain and flinched a little."What's wrong, Lyse?""Are you okay? You're scaring

The maids had to help her into the house.She wailed, "Mom, you must get back at them for me! I'm so upset!"Her face was tear-stricken and full of snot. "Everyone's cursing me online. I can't go out in public anymore!""What can I do? Should I slap Jasper or force him to hand over the role of president to you, little dimwit?" A furious Sophia pointed a finger at Betty's teary face. "What did I tell you before you left? I told you to recite my script, word by word, and never put on any makeup! You needed to show up bare-faced to appear sincere!"Sophia went on, "But what did you do instead? You went against everything I planned. You deserved everything that happened to you. What's the point of crying in front of me? Even your dad has given up on you!""Mom, it's all my fault. I should have listened to you.

Jasper solemnly took the yearbook proffered and began skimming through.His opponent from that night had a similar physique to him. Though he wore a mask, Jasper felt the man was very familiar. They must have met once before.His understanding of Axel's background was limited. Their military school followed a policy of safeguarding identities and related issues. But now that Jasper knew of his identity as Alice's brother, the clouds were clearing up.After some time, Jasper leaped up in surprise, staring at the yearbook on his knee. The gesture surprised Xavier, who also jumped slightly at the commotion."Did you see something, sir?""Hm … him, of all people?" Jasper murmured to himself.The man he'd hone in had a wide, handsome smile. Below his picture was the name "Axel Whitaker.""Axel Whitaker … Whitaker … No wonder he seemed to know her!"

Alyssa was supposed to be busy managing the KS World Hotel in her office. The reality was, she was playing a survival game in her office. In the game, Alyssa was a chainsaw-wielding maniac. To win, she had to kill survivors. Cans of ice-cold beer and a plate of fried chicken were on the desk before her. Those were the foods she often enjoyed while playing her games. She had no interest in the extravagant opulence of lavish restaurants and elite bars. Nothing could beat a good barbecue or a plateful of grits.Alyssa recalled pushing through her allergies to learn cooking while married to Jasper. An old saying, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach," fascinated her. So, she learned to cook. She hoped her cooking would finally make Jasper do more than just quietly eat the food at the table.Alyssa had registered for the culinary classes at Solana City's top culinary school. She was the only female student there for an entire year.She graduated at the top of her class. H

Meanwhile, a black Maybach waited on a corner of the street.Jasper watched the Rolls Royce from the backseat of the Maybach. Soon, Alice emerged from the hotel with Sean.She was stunning tonight. Her dark hair cascaded down her back, framing her quaint features. She wore a beautiful satin dress in aquamarine. It hugged her waist perfectly. She looked like some ephemeral creature.While Jasper looked at her, bitterness filled his chest.Why had she never dressed up for him in their three years of marriage? She was always in those cotton tees and plain white shoes.He could've given her everything, just like Jonah Taylor was doing now.Why did she hold back all those years? Why did she portray herself as the victim in their relationship? And why did she sow doubt among everyone else regarding his ability to treat his woman kindly? Jasper watch

The Rolls Royce entered the grand mansion through its tall gates. As it did, numerous outside housekeepers and servants within exclaimed with joy. They shared the joyous news to whoever they could. "Ms. Alyssa is finally home!" came the excited cries.As Jonah and Alyssa got out of the car, they were greeted by two lines of house staff led by the house butler. The staff members respectfully bowed and greeted, "Welcome home, Ms. Alyssa!""We've missed you, Ms. Alyssa!"Alyssa put her hand on her forehead, slightly overwhelmed by the sonorous welcome."Alyssa, you're finally home!" someone exclaimed.Alyssa turned to see who it was and spotted Mandy in the doorway.

Xavier immediately smacked himself in the cheeks, feeling like he had misspoken.Jasper stared ahead, the manor's lights reflecting in his eyes. He could faintly hear laughter coming from the building. At that, his heart sank into an icy pit of hopelessness.It seemed Alice was truly leaving an impression on Jonah Taylor's family.Jasper had considered the Taylor family to be incredibly intricate. Winston Taylor had one wife before. But he had three wives now. None of them got registered at City Hall. They would surely make it tough for Alice to marry into the family. He'd thought she might give up then and there.However, it seemed like he had thought wrong. It sounded like Alice was truly getting along with the rest of the Taylor family. He could hear their laughter even from this distance!How close had they become …Jasper was getting more distraught by the second. He had never felt so tense, so desperate. Even his breaths were becoming uneven. "Do you have any cigarettes o

What was Winston thinking, saying something so terrible about his own son?"I don't think that's necessary." Axel rolled his eyes. "I'll need to stay alive until the day you need a family member to sign you off in the hospital. I know Jonah and Silas wouldn't be able to do it. You'd need me.""How dare you!" Winston shouted. "Why I oughta—"Winston yelled for their butler, Clark Anderson, to fetch him a cane. Meanwhile, he removed his leather boots and flung one in Axel's face.Jonah and Silas hurriedly went up to Winston to stop him. Mandy and Colene followed suit. Still, Winston's temper remained.All of a sudden, a gentle, delicate voice rang out in the hallway."Um … dinner's ready."Everyone turned to see who had spoken. It was Lyla, still in her apron and a frying pan in hand. Her pale skin glistened with oil and sweat. She looked dazedly at the crowd, having no idea as to what had transpired.Winston's stomach growled amidst the silence."Fine, dinner first! I'll teach
