Jasper and Alyssa spun around immediately.

"Taty?" they exclaimed at the same time.

Alyssa widened her eyes. She was overjoyed. She let go of Jasper's hand and ran toward Tatiana, who

was standing alone by the side. She gave Tatiana a warm hug.

"How long have you been waiting for? Why didn't you go in? Mrs. Rosie is in. She recognizes you, and

she'd let you in. Why were you just waiting here?"

"I'm sorry for just showing up like this, Lyse. Sorry for bothering you and Jasper." Tatiana's voice

sounded weak. Listening to her like that made Alyssa feel bad.

"Don't be silly. Do you know how much I missed you?"

Alyssa stroked Tatiana's soft cheeks and smiled. "Two days ago, your brother-in-law, Jasper, was just

suggesting for us to go on a trip after this busy period. We can even travel around the world!"

Jasper was stunned to hear Alyssa's words. In the next instance, his heart filled with warmth. His brows

relaxed, and he broke into a smile.

Tatiana had long acknowledged his identity as her brother-in-law. Even so, to hear it coming directly

from Alyssa signified a stamp of approval. The happiness and sense of satisfaction were indescribable.

Alyssa raised her eyebrow playfully and said, "He will be paying for everything anyway. He's loaded, so

you can swipe his limitless black card all you like. I should just take this opportunity to raise the value of

your dowry."

Jasper pouted. He laughed lovingly and helplessly at the same time.

Alyssa treated others absolutely generously. On the contrary, she was calculative when it came to him.

He did have a black card, but Alyssa and her brothers probably had a whole stack of them. Even so,

she still wanted to use his money.novelbin

The saying that daughters were the apple of their parents' eye was true. Her heart would still be with

her family even if she were married.

That being said, Jasper would succumb gladly.

What use would his money be if not for his wife to spend?

"What... What dowry? Quit teasing me, Lyse." Tatiana's face blushed as red as a tomato.

"I wasn't teasing you. I was serious about it."

The expression on Alyssa's face was serious. She blinked and continued, "Your marriage with Sean

would need to be planned out eventually. Once you're set on marriage, everything will progress swiftly.

It's not a bad thing to start preparing early."

Upon hearing that, Tatiana pressed her lips together lightly. She furrowed her brows into an

inconspicuous frown of worry.

"Oh? Also, did you come alone? Where's Sean?" Alyssa asked in a surprised tone.

The tears in Tatiana's eyes glistened. "He doesn't know that I've come to see you. I didn't tell him..."

she hesitated.

Jasper could tell that she had more to say, so he probed in a warm voice, "After coming all the way, I'm

sure that Taty has many things to talk to you about. Let's head in, Lyse."

"Ah. What was I thinking? I was overjoyed to see her. I became too focused on catching up with her."

Alyssa linked arms with Tatiana and entered the door joyfully.

Rosie was thrilled to see Tatiana, too. She welcomed their guest by preparing fruits and snacks. She

served her happily. At the same time, she kept asking Tatiana how she was doing.

Tatiana sat on the couch demurely. She cradled the warm cup of tea in her hands but didn't take even a

sip from it.

Jasper observed her behavior and felt pity for her. She was also Winston's daughter. But all that she

could get and control was much less than Alyssa, who was well-loved by all.

The marriage alliance with the Schmidts had turned to dust. Even so, it was still obvious that she was

still restricted by her identity as one of the Taylors.

Truth be told, Alyssa was the only one who could live freely.

"You don't look too good, Taty. Are you feeling unwell?" Jasper sat down next to Alyssa. He expressed

his concern as Tatiana's brother-in-law.

Tatiana shrugged and shook her head slightly.

Alyssa held Tatiana's hand in hers. "Taty, did you and Sean come across any difficulty? Don't tell me

that the Lynch family went to look for you again. Or was it Winston who blabbered again?" she asked.

"Lyse. I. I'm worried for you."

Tatiana's eyes welled up as if they were filled with bitter regret. She continued, "There are so many

comments on the internet now. Those comments are detrimental to you. They made me so angry after

reading them that I couldn't even sleep well.

"I've been replying to the nasty comments all day, but there are just too many. I wouldn't be able to

reply to all of them even if I had more pairs of hands."

"Oh my, I thought there was something serious!"

It wasn't a concern to Alyssa at all. She broke into a wide smile. She gave Tatiana's chilly hands a light

squeeze.

"Don't be silly, Taty. Just think about it from a different perspective. That just means that I've got a huge

reputation. Public slander is still a type of publicity. It's all still online traffic—something that not

everyone can get, even if they want to.

"I'm considering to promote KS Group's products. I have to seize this opportunity with all the online

attention to advertise our product. I want to turn this crisis into my success!"
