"Lyse, Jasper..." Tatiana, nestled in Sean's embrace, lowered her voice, drooping her head guiltily.
Alyssa pretended to be angry as she put on a stern face. "You're all grown up now, right? Acting first
and reporting later."
"Ahem... Lyse, Taty didn't report anything, though."
Jasper blinked his eyes, stupidly adding, "It was you who cleverly discovered that the layout of the
livestream room looked like your hotel. You called the front desk to check the guest information to find
out Taty was here."
"So, should I scold her?" Alyssa glared at him sharply.
The dignified Jasper shut his mouth at once.
Well, there was nothing he could do. He was the one who made himself a henpecked husband anyway.
"Lyse, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong." Tatiana sniffled, then steeled herself and spoke with
determination. "But even if you're angry at me, I have no regrets about the choice I made today.
"Lyse, do you know? It's been a long time since I felt so proud of myself. I feel like I'm doing something
very important and very right. You always told me since we were kids that you wanted to be a heroine
who'd right wrongs.
"What I did today was like fulfilling your wish. And besides, I'm fine, aren't I? Even if I'm in danger, Sean
will protect me."
As Sean met Tatiana's eyes, the pure affection, which couldn't be concealed, overflowed in his eyes.
Originally, Alyssa wanted to continue her act. But after hearing Tatiana's heartfelt words, she couldn't
help but smile.
"Who said what you did was wrong?"
Tatiana's eyes sparkled with joy. "Lyse, y-you're not angry at me?"
"I'm angry at you for turning off your phone and completely disappearing!"
Alyssa stood with her hands on her hips, pouting angrily. "Hmph! Do you know how scared we were
during the hours we couldn't reach you?
"I've imagined enough stories in my head to fill a whole detective series. I ran through all those
homicide cases, dismemberment cases, psycho kidnappers in my head."
Jasper and Sean were both rendered speechless at that.
Frowning, Tatiana chuckled. "Lyse, you're too much. You're scaring yourself silly before anything
happens to me. Don't overthink.
"You used to be so scared watching horror movies that you couldn't sleep at night. You would climb into
my bed and tremble with fear. Have you forgotten? With so many terrifying thoughts, you won't be able
to sleep at night."novelbin
Alyssa's face instantly turned red, and she stuttered, "W-Who trembled with fear? That wasn't me."
Jasper's eyes deepened at her words, and his breath above her soft hair became heavier.
So, she had something she was afraid of too.
He'd have to make Xavier pick out a few more horror movies. It could add some new excitement to
their nights together.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming harmonious, Alyssa's phone rang.
"Oh... it's Dad."
