Jasper found himself standing before Alyssa, vulnerable and defenseless against her barrage of verbal attacks. She was right, though. He was the reason behind the shitty things she had to endure."Alyssa, there's nothing between me and Zoe. I only see her as a little sister!" His ears reddened from the anxiety as he struggled to make his point.Normally, he wouldn't bother explaining himself, but he was at his wit's end this time."Why bother telling me? It's not my concern," Alyssa snapped, her patience waning as she shot him a look of disdain. "I couldn't care less about your relationship with her, and I certainly don't want to hear your explanation. Let go. I'm going to watch the show.""Do you not care? If so, why did you have to bring it up? You mentioned it once at the police station and again this time!" He was resentful at the misunderstanding between them. His eyes brimmed with tears from the upsetting situation, and his shoulders quivered. He added, "If you care about w

Sounding anxious, Xavier quickly voiced his concern, "Ada Kingsley's wedding site decor at KS World Hotel has been leaked on Twitter. It's circulating and topping the trending topics."Jasper's eyes twitched as he inquired, "Do we know which media outlet is responsible for this?""It's a verified media account!""They're asking for trouble by leaking things they shouldn't!" Jasper remarked, his expression darkening."W-Will that affect Madam?" Xavier inquired with worry."Absolutely," Jasper replied, his gaze still fixed on the direction Alyssa had hurried off to. He continued, "I suspect there's a specific clause in her contract with Ada Kingsley that prohibits the hotel from divulging any details of the wedding. A violation of the clause is a breach of contract.""A breach of contract? That's serious!""Now that the site decoration has been leaked, KS World Hotel has breached the contract. Even if they aren't legally obligated to compensate Ada, I'm convinced she'll reconsid

When Alyssa heard from Vincent that Ada had left the show, she ran to the underground parking with Sean in search of Ada. At that moment, Ada had entered her private van with a foul expression.As the door rolled to a close, a pair of pale hands gripped it and slid it open."Madam Ada, we know you're furious at the trending topics. I feel the same because the photos have been leaked! KS World Hotel has no idea about the leak!" Alyssa spoke through heavy breaths after running all the way. She was sweaty,Ada gave her an amused look. She was a professional at keeping her composure after 30 years of acting.Instead of launching a tirade, she remarked, "Ms. Alyssa, I trust that you are unaware of the leak because we've signed an agreement to keep it a secret and also because of your principles. Otherwise, you wouldn't have won Mr. Carter's approval."Sean's eyes lit up upon hearing that. He misread Ada's tone, thinking there was a chance of turning things around. However, he was imm

Alyssa's eyes clouded over as she smirked. "Interesting. They are testing my limits. They won't learn their lessons if I don't put them in their place."The setback didn't demotivate her. Losing an important client was not the focus right now. She needed to find out the mole in the hotel or risk losing more."Ms. Alyssa, what should we do with the box of desserts?" Sean appeared upset.She decisively tossed the box into the trashcan and walked away without a second glance. She reasoned, "A gift is only meaningful if the recipient accepts it. Now, it's just trash. I never reclaim what I've given to others. Let's go."A tall and hunky figure emerged from the shadows when the two left. Jasper's eyes flickered as he stared at Alyssa."It looks like Madam will be busy hunting down the mole! It's no easy task." Xavier sighed. Jasper wordlessly walked to the trashcan and picked up the box without concern about hygiene."Mr. Beckett, s-stop! It's dirty!" Even the adaptable Xavier was g

The following day, Xavier hurriedly knocked on Jasper's office door at the Beckett Group, announcing, "Mr. Beckett, you wanted me to look into—Argh!"Xavier trailed off with a scream. It was too late to stop Jasper, who was seated on the table and casually lifting a pastry out of the dirty box.With a satisfied crunch, Jasper took a massive bite of the pastry and scrunched up his eyes in enjoyment."Oh god! How could you eat the food you picked from the trashcan?" Xavier warned him."Only the box is dirty. The pastries are fine," Jasper replied nonchalantly as he took another bite.The pastries tasted delightful, but too bad they weren't for him. Bitterness welled up inside him. He had once been dismissive of Alyssa's daily efforts in crafting these desserts. Now, he found himself rummaging through the trash can just to get a taste. How did he get to this point?"Go ahead. How's the investigation?" Jasper put away the remaining pastries and questioned leisurely."Ahem. After u

Xavier fell silent once more.Jasper took a deep breath and lowered his gaze. "I'll make it up to her, little by little."…Jonah and Silas rushed to Alyssa's private villa that night when they heard of her business setback.Silas was drenched in sweat as he sat in the study. His fingers typed furiously on the keyboard to track down the user information from the leaker's account that Alyssa gave her.Meanwhile, Alyssa lounged on the couch and clinked glasses with Jonah, savoring the high-quality red wine he had brought along."Hey, that's too much!" Mouth dry, Silas protested, "Am I here at night to work for free? Look at you, drinking wine and enjoying life. Is this how you treat a prosecutor?"Silas realized they showed no sympathy, so he added meekly, "Please save some for me.""Silas, stay focused on your work. If you succeed, I'll reward you with everything from my wine cellar," Alyssa quipped."Hmph! I am a moral and principled civil servant. You'd better not attempt to

"Well, it's not 'The Ring' anymore. It's straight up some 'Insidious' shit." Jonah took a sip of the red wine, still in the mood for a joke. With him and Silas around, Jasper wouldn't dare pull anything—unless he wanted to be crucified."Is that bastard knocking on your door? Screw him! Grab your weapons!" Silas cursed but continued to type away on the keyboard, his eyes glued to the screen."What weapon? Your keyboard, you mean?" She shook her head and rose with a frustrated expression. "He's come for me, so I'll be the one to show him the door. I'll go downstairs and check out the situation."She went to the entrance alone and pressed the intercom button. Jasper's indifference immediately showed up on the screen."Why are you here?" Her eyes held no emotion, as though she was staring at a complete stranger. "Aren't there other places to visit in Solana City? Why do you keep coming to my place?""Alyssa, come out. Let's talk," he said, brushing off her taunt."Why can't we tal

"Good job, Silas, although it was a little slow," Alyssa complimented him merrily."This is pretty speedy, alright? Why didn't you get Axel to work on this? He's best at everything illegal. Got to find the right person for the job.""I reached out to Axel a few days ago, but he's on an important mission. I don't want to take up his time.""Lyse, you're pretty good at hacking—almost at Axel's level. You'd have settled this yesterday if you had worked on it," Jonah expressed his puzzlement.She merely yawned and explained, "I'm lazy."Silas was dumbstruck after learning that he had been used.Alyssa looked through the Twitter account he found and smirked. "A reporter with a strong sense of justice, isn't she? Instead of reporting on her own news, she goes ahead and leaks the photos of the wedding site at my hotel, sticking her nose into other people's business.""Are you saying that someone's behind her actions?" Jonah wondered."No. She wasn't working under orders or getting pai
