Chapter 141

The atmosphere dropped to a freezing point.Xavier wished he could intervene. He wanted to silence his boss to prevent him from ruining things for himself.Alyssa laughed out loud, finding Jasper absurd. "I'll admit, I underestimated your persistence when I decided to try and be with you. I gave you everything that I was and could be just so you would love me. Look where that got me, huh?"But you were wrong about one thing, Jasper Beckett. I never hated you, even when you wished me to disappear from your sight. "I did want to end things amicably between us, but you keep meddling in my life now that our relationship is over. You've completely shattered any chance of us having a civil connection. "That's why I'm doing everything I can to erase you from my life. You married me because you had to, just as that's my standpoint now. I want nothing to do with you anymore. That is the only way for us to make peace with the past."Jasper felt as if a sledgehammer had struck his heart.

Alyssa was taken aback but didn't reach out to take the box. She hadn't expected Jasper to have kept that by his side all this time."Alice couldn't possibly accept that from you. I'll do it in her stead." Before Alyssa could say anything, Colene had taken the box from Jasper.Inside was a gorgeous bracelet carved from the finest lavender moon quartz. It gleamed with a soft light, looking like a treasure from centuries before.Alyssa could instantly tell this was a one-of-a-kind material, not usually for sale to the public. If Jasper had given this to her years ago, she would have been so happy she wouldn't have been able to sleep.But her joy was now buried beneath a cold, lonely desert. Unrequited love was a waste of time, along with the gifts it brought. "Hm. I'm no collector, but even I can tell how expensive this must be. Look at this crystal. You're very kind, Mr. Beckett …" Colene drawled.She suddenly raised her hand. What followed was the sound of something breaking int

Axel was in the backyard, walking straight toward his Lamborghini without so much as looking back."Axel!" Alyssa cried, running up to him. "Where are you going?""As far away from this place as possible, obviously. Hopefully, I never have to come back." When Axel turned to look at her, she could see that his cheek had turned alarmingly red where their father had hit him."You always said you cared the most about our brothers and me. So if this is our home, then it's your home too. How could you just never come back again?" Alyssa asked, holding onto her brother's hand. Her heart hurt so deeply.Axel gazed at his beloved sister, then gently cupped her cheek. "Of course, I love you guys. I'll love you guys wherever I go. But this isn't home anymore. I've fulfilled my promise to you, Lyse. You wouldn't still be upset with me because of it, right?"Alyssa nodded slowly, suddenly feeling like crying."If you want to show respect and love for Winston, then I suggest you never make me

Cold sweat broke out on Xavier's forehead. "I just think if you don't want to separate from Madam, then why don't you just tell her that? Tell her how you feel?""How I feel?" Jasper sneered. "Hmph. I've already made up my mind about how I feel. We are never getting back together!""Then why did you—""Drive!" Jasper roared, nearly causing Xavier hit the brakes. He bit his lip, staying quiet for the rest of the drive.Jasper leaned back in his seat, feeling unbelievably tired.Only then did he remember the quartz shards he had picked up before they leftThe shards had pierced his skin, causing drops of blood to ooze and bleed from his palm.What had gotten into him? He had wanted so badly to bring Alice home tonight, away from Jonah Taylor and his family, away from Belbank.All he had wanted was for Alice to come home with him.…After seeing Axel off, Alyssa went to console her father alongside Jonah and Silas. Only after that did she finally get some time to herself.She r

That incident had caused Alyssa pain for a very long time.Two years ago, she lost her child in an accident. Since then, she had been consistently avoiding shops that sold infant products. She stayed away whenever the topic of children came up. She couldn't even stop herself from breaking down when babies appeared on television.It was Christmas Eve, and she had driven to the beach with Newton as they wanted to look at the snow displays there. They had a car accident on the way there. However, Alyssa had saved him first before checking on her own injuries. They were rushed to the hospital soon after.At that point in time, the rest of the Becketts had gone overseas to celebrate, whereas Jasper had joined Liana for a holiday. Alyssa had withstood the immense pain in her belly while waiting for Ben to turn up. She ended up collapsing, thoroughly exhausted."Madam Alice, you're bleeding!"She vaguely remembered bleeding profusely down there, the warm sensation bringing with it

"Ahem … There is something I could use your help with." Alyssa cleared her throat."Leave it to us!""Don't hold back!""Well … remember that antique rosewood chair from the auction that Winston had you bid for, Mandy?" Alyssa asked. "I'd like to have it."Mandy and Colene shared a look. "You really aren't holding back."Winston was someone who wouldn't bat an eye when it came to buying property and cars or giving away his money. But when it came to antiques, he'd hoard them like some kind of wizened dragon. Asking him to part with his rosewood chair would likely be a futile endeavor.Mandy blinked rapidly, seemingly lost in thought. "I'll find a way to convince him to give it up. But why do you want it?""If he knew why, he'd never give it to me.""I got you! Don't worry!" Colene grinned, smacking her chest in affirmation. "If he doesn't want to hand it over, I'll steal it for you!"Alyssa burst into giggles.If it really came to that, Winston would surely have to keep an

"Are you sure?" Jasper asked solemnly."Well, sir, I phoned Ada's manager myself. She was the one who said Ms. Taylor had contacted them first. The manager actually intends for us to compete for the opportunity …" Xavier's voice grew smaller as he continued, noticing how Jasper's face was growing more menacing by the second."What else did they say?""The manager also said … that they know Berenike Hotel has always been famous and well-known, but KS World Hotel's been in the limelight lately, so … they want us to prove to them why they should pick us for the wedding. Our plans need to win them over before Ada even considers working with us."Jasper slammed the table, feeling unbearably irritated.Alice White was already annoying enough to deal with. And now Alyssa Taylor was here trying to compete for their project? Were these women specifically sent to torment him?"Arrange a meeting with all department heads and directors tomorrow. We need to come up with a high-end wedding pro

Liana had begged Sophia for those two invitation cards. Her resentment at having to stoop so low had now dissipated."Why didn't you tell me we were coming to an event like this? You know I don't like these things," Jasper grumbled quietly, his jaw tight."I wouldn't have been able to ask Ms. Emerson to make my wedding dress for me, given my social status. That's why I wanted you to come. She's sure to agree to my request if you ask her."Jasper's face had darkened. Liana hurriedly added, "I'm really sorry I didn't tell you beforehand.""Just tell me next time. I could have sent someone to come in my stead," Jasper sighed, though his tone had softened considerably now."I promise I will next time."Just then, a set of familiar footsteps rang out from behind them. It was a precise and confident stride. Jasper instantly recognized who it was. He turned around.Alyssa approached them. She was dressed in an azure sundress and matching coat. She stood out against the backdrop of pi

Madam?The guests were shocked to hear Rose call Alyssa that, especially Liana, whose jaw had fallen open.What was their connection? Why was Rose referring to her with such respect?Wasn't Alyssa only 24 years old? Rose was only four years older than her, and she had already been in the fashion industry for at least a decade. She'd had countless achievements, like being in the spotlight of International Fashion Week and receiving accolades.So, who was Alyssa to her then?"Who are you calling old? Have you ever seen a 24-year-old senior citizen?" Alyssa scowled, crossing her arms in front of her chest. "Women never age.""That's because I respect you too much, Madam!" Rose leaned against Alyssa, her hand around her waist in an affectionate manner. "You should have told me before you came over. I haven't even cleaned up properly yet!""I didn't plan to, originally. But one of my meetings was canceled all of a sudden, so I had time to come visit.""Ah … so this was just a conven

Upon hearing that, Alyssa was baffled. She tried to give Rose a warning look, but the latter wouldn't so much as glance at her. In fact, her eyes were nearly burning a hole into Jasper's pecs.Alyssa couldn't help but inwardly cursed at the situation. "Thank you." Jasper nodded gratefully. But before he could say much else, Rose continued, "You can stay. But she leaves." She pointed at Liana.Liana was shocked. Her face was flushed. She felt thoroughly humiliated. "Why me? I'm his fiancée!" she cried.The guests flinched at the distasteful noise, finding her increasingly uncultured."Tsk tsk." Rose shook her head. "I wouldn't have been able to tell, honestly.""You—" Liana was so angry that she nearly stomped her foot.Rose took another sly look at Jasper, this time smirking. "Mr. Beckett can stay because he's an attractive man. And because he's dressed well for the occasion."She then eyed Liana's outfit. "You, on the other hand, are a mess. Your colors are a terrible intrusi
