Chapter 1208

Jasper understood what Alyssa meant.

He felt for her and hugged her, saying, “I know that it’s because of Tatiana. All you are doing is to

prevent the marriage alliance between her and the Schmidt family.”

How well he understood her actually made her feel sad.

She mumbled coyly in his arms, “What I hate is… is that I’m still not powerful enough. This is the only

method I could think of. Don’t you think I’m being so silly?”

Jasper felt suffocated upon hearing that.

He caressed her back gently and replied, “No, I think it’s very smart of you. This is the best method at

this moment.novelbin

“Furthermore, I think that Ezzo wouldn’t hold a grudge against Uncle Winston over this small matter. A

true businessman will know how to weigh their pros and cons. I don’t think that he will choose the KS

Group.

“There’s also nothing to be afraid of, even if you fail to partner with Jesselton Incorporated. With me in

charge, I will not go easy on the Schmidt Group.

Alyssa was moved. Her eyes welled up.

She had Winston, a top-notch, powerful man, as well as her responsible brothers. Although this was

so, she was a naturally stubborn and independent woman.

Ever since she was young, she would solve her own problems without relying on others. She also

didn’t want her family to worry about her.

Jasper was the first person whom she wanted to rely on. She wanted to depend on him for the rest of

her life.

Suddenly, the peaceful atmosphere was disrupted by a strange sound!

“Someone’s there!”

In an instant, the looks in both their eyes dimmed. They both turned their heads in the direction of the

sound!

Then, the figure of a man flashed across in front of them!

“Jasper, we need to apprehend the man lurking in the shadows. He’s likely eavesdropping!”

Alyssa’s pupils constricted. With a cold gaze, she said, “We were talking about corporate secrets

earlier. It would be bad if the Schmidt family heard about our conversation!”

Jasper nodded coolly. At lightning speed, he ran toward where the mystery person went.

In a few agile movements and his eagle eyes, he soon caught up with

the said man!

“Stop right there! Don’t make me strike you.”

The man had his back against him. He was bending forward and breathing heavily. It was obvious that

he wasn’t in optimal physical

condition.

Jasper raised his brow. He thought that the figure looked extremely familiar.

“You are…”

“Mr. Beckett.”

The man turned around very slowly.

Under the moonlight, Jasper caught a good glance at his badly wounded face. Jasper’s eyes widened

in shock.

“Sean?”

By this time, Alyssa had also rushed over.

They noticed that Sean’s suit was torn and covered in dirt. His handsome face was covered in bruises.

His left eye, in particular, was swollen purple-black. They could no longer see his eye. It was just a

discolored mess!

“Sean!” Alyssa ran to the front of Sean frantically. She placed her shaking hands on his shoulders, and

her voice had turned croaky.” What happened? What in the world happened? Who beat you up?”

Sean clenched his teeth and turned away from her, feeling humiliated.

He didn’t want her to see the bad shape that he was in, but there was

nowhere to run to now.

“Tell me, Sean! You’d better spill!” Alyssa shouted while she shook his already-wounded body hard.

She was so agitated that her eyes had turned red.

“Lyse! Calm down a little!” Jasper clutched her around her waist from behind. He held her tight and

said, “Sean is injured. You’ll hurt him even more this way!”

Alyssa’s chest was tight and stuffy. She took a few deep breaths, yet it was still difficult to settle herself

down.

“Sean, are you still wanting to hide things, even at this juncture?”

Jasper was still hugging Alyssa tight. She was shaking like a leaf from her fury.

In a low voice, Jasper encouraged Sean, “Do you think you are being considerate of Lyse by hiding it

from her? You are only making her

“Miss… Could you… stop Taty’s marriage to David?”

Sean couldn’t hold himself back anymore. Tears began rolling down

his cheeks. “I can do anything you want

from being wedded to David!”

As long as you stop Taty

Alyssa had an epiphany. Her eyes were bloodshot. “The ones who beat you up… Were they people

from the Schmidt Group?”

Subconsciously, Jasper tightened his fists. He had the same realization, too!
