Female Novel
Chatper 1356
It was afternoon when Alyssa woke up the next day. She might be sleepy, but Jasper, a light sleeper,
had woken up after a few hours of sleep.
Even after he woke up, he did not leave the room at all. Instead, he worked remotely on the couch,
handling the group's affairs and guarding by her side.
"Ah—" Suddenly, Alyssa jerked awake and shot up in bed. Jasper immediately put down his work andnovelbin
went up to hug her. He asked gently, "What's wrong, Lyse? Was it a nightmare?"
She patted herself on the chest. Then, she grabbed his hand with a flushed face. "Jasper, guess what
was in my dream?"
He swallowed hard and attempted to kiss her, but she shunned him and exclaimed, "Jonah and Julien
got married in my dreams!"
"Hmm?" Jasper stared at her in surprise. She added, "Our entire family was at the wedding. And I
caught Julien's bouquet!"
Jasper looked pretty speechless.
"I woke up right as they were about to kiss. Damn it! Why do I have to wake up at the most important
time?" She slid her fingers through her hair in regret as her heart raced.
"Lyse, you're adorable." He warped an arm around her shoulders and tapped her on the forehead.
"What's going on in that mind of yours?"
"I was too tired and fell asleep last night after I got home. I had so much to tell you." She gulped and
stared nervously into his eyes. "I have a feeling that Julien is interested in Jonah. And Jonah doesn't
seem to mind it at all.
"When they showed up at the police station last night, they seemed pretty close to me, even when they
hadn't done anything. They look like a great match!"
Jasper took her words seriously. Not only did he not humor her, but he also gave it some thought.
"I know Dr. Lovelace is gay, but Jonah isn't."
"You got a point. I don't know what happened to me. How did I dream of such a realistic dream?" She
rubbed her forehead and sighed. "I always think of Jonah as the best. No woman would be good
enough for him.
"Well, it's not that they're bad. They just lacked something. But I find his perfect match in Julien. It's so
unbelievable."
"Lyse, if it were true, would you struggle to accept them?"
Hearing that, she shook her head. "I'm more worried that Winston might struggle with the truth. Winston
reluctantly accepted Jonah when Jonah said he wouldn't get married or have kids because of his faith.
But what if Jonah turned out to be gay?"
She then added, "Gosh, what am I thinking? Even if Jonah is gay, Winston will come to terms with it
one day. After all, didn't he come to accept you as well?"
Jasper wondered if he should feel sad or glad at her remark.
Mrs. Rosie interrupted them at that moment from outside the room, "Mr. Beckett, Madam Alyssa, are
you both up? Come have lunch before you go back to sleep. You'll sleep better when you're full."
An awkward expression flashed across Jasper's face. Similarly, Alyssa clutched the blanket in
embarrassment, thinking, "Oh, Mrs. Rosie, you underestimated Jasper Beckett. He's the most
energetic when he's starved; he would totally devour me in bed!"
