While Jasper looked at her, bitterness 1/6
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 watched as Alice entered Jonah's car, his lips curling "Follow them!"
The Rolls Royce was en route for | Belbank. As the car drove on, Alyssa , took out the financial reports and development plans she'd prepared for Winston. She then handed them to Jonah.
"What do you think, jonah? I've done a really good job, haven't ?" jonah skimmed through the documents and patted his sister's head. "Wonderful. You've done wonderfully, just as I thought you would. You always manage to exceed expectations. I knew you had a knack for business management." o yay!" Alyssa beamed. "When I'm KS Group's CFO, the whole of Belbank will bow before me. Not just Belbank, but Solana City too. Once we make way for the city, Jasper will be left eating

Alyssa balled her hands into fists, an eager and proud light beaming from her eyes. "If I can't beat him in love, I'm definitely crushing him in business!" "Alright!

Meanwhile, the Maybach from before was hot on their tail.
* "Sir, they seem to be heading to Belbank!" Sean spoke as he drove. &» To which Jasper grunted darkly, "Indeed." "He — Mr. Taylor isn't bringing Ms.
White to meet his parents, is he? We have to do something, sir! We can't let that happen!" @ She wouldn't dare," Jasper growled.
Such was his fury that the veins in his temple throbbed visibly.
He continued, "We haven't gone through with the divorce yet. So, she's still my lawfully-wedded wife. What does she take me for? Chopped
liver?" €» He was willing to disregard Alice not * coming to see him after her brother had assaulted him.
But here she was, already going out with another man, even potentially meeting his parents! €» Did she leave him just so she could make an idiot of him? "But sir, according to the agreement, you will need to divorce Madam after Mr. Beckett Senior's birthday. You can't do this forever ..." Xavier said with a sigh. @ As if just realizing the impact of those words, Jasper froze momentarily. His heart sank into the pits of his stomach as panic began bubbling within.
