What a bastard!
“Jasper, my chest hurts…” Liana hurriedly went up to him and rested her head against his shoulder asshe grumbled. “Since you’re here, why don’t we go shopping? You’ve never shopped with me. Look atMr. Harper going shopping with Ms. White…”
Jasper followed Alyssa’s figure with his eyes.novelbin
“Fine.”
Alyssa shuffled away, looking upset. Her ex–husband’s sudden appearance was a buzzkill that ruinedher good mood.
“Hey,” she suddenly called out. Landon answered with a twinkle in his eye, “I’m here.”
“I’m in a bad mood. Why don’t you share a few more jokes?”
Landon was speechless at her request. “Well, I can certainly do that. If you’re looking to cheer up, I cangather a few people and have fun at ACE tonight.”
“It’s fine. I don’t drink with guys I don’t know.” She shot him a cold look. “By the way, aren’t you worriedthat Jasper might unfriend you if we keep hanging out?”
“F***. You guys are divorced. Even if it’s not official yet, it’s almost certain. I didn’t steal his girl or loot aburning house. What is he angry for? An oversensitive jackass.” Landon snorted.
At the same time, Alyssa was attracted by a shimmery blue diamond necklace in a store displaywindow. Before she knew it, she had wandered into the store. Landon followed along.
“Can I have a look at this necklace?”
“Madam, you have great taste indeed! This necklace is a limited–edition item from our brand designer’ssummer line–‘Starry Ocean‘! There are only five of its type in the nation.”
The store employee enthusiastically introduced the background of the product while removing it fromthe display.
As an expert in jewelry, Alyssa could tell that the shade of the blue diamond was rather ordinary. It wasneither vivid blue nor deep blue. Still, she admired its skillful cut and design concept. The designermust be a soulful talent. Thanks to the brand effect, the necklace had a seven–figure price tag

The employees marveled at their outrageously good looks. It was a pleasant view to behold!
“Mhm,” she muttered softly while admiring the necklace.
“Try it on.” He gestured with his chin.
“Wow! That’s a lovely necklace! I love it so much!” Liana’s shrill voice cut through the air, causingAlyssa and Landon to frown. Alyssa turned around and watched as Liana approached her while holdingJasper’s hand.
The employees gaped at Jasper’s presence. His perfectly chiseled and smooth features were a work ofart. Unfortunately, the woman he came with was nowhere as attractive and well–dressed as Alyssa.
“Tsk, why is she haunting us?” Landon grumbled in a low voice.
Jasper’s eyes fell on Alyssa.
“Jasper, I love this necklace so much. It’s so pretty. Can you buy it for me?” Liana pouted and swayedJasper’s arms like a child asking for candy.
Landon rubbed the goosebumps on his arms.

Jasper’s pupils contracted. He pursed his lips. In the past, he would quietly buy anything Liana fanciedwithout her asking and deliver it to her.
However, the sight of the blue diamond necklace reminded him of the humiliating auction and theCrimson Heart that would forever be locked away.
The smile on her face froze amid his hesitation.
“Miss, here’s my card.” Landon quickly handed the employee a black card and beamed at Alyssa.Please wrap the necklace nicely. It’s my gift to this young lady.”
Alyssa glowered at Landon. Before she could stop him, she saw Jasper handing his black card to theemployee.
Take my card. I’m buying the necklace.” Jasper cast a deep glance at Alyssa.
