Chapter 1754

All eyes turned toward the door.

Dressed sharply in a suit, Jameson appeared in everyone's view while pushing a frail woman in a wheelchair.“Lyse, who's that lady in the wheelchair?" Jasper looked puzzled.

"It's Victor's wife, Jameson's mother." Alyssa's expression darkened as she glanced at Lily.

Jasper narrowed his eyes. He vaguely recalled seeing Jameson's mother once at Lyla’s birthday party.

At that time, under Jameson's careful styling, Lily appeared elegant despite her illness. She exuded a remarkable presence, justlike an upper-class lady.

However, this time, her condition was noticeably worse than before, with graying hair and sunken cheeks.

Although the banquet hall wasn't cold, she needed to wrap herself in a blanket. She looked uncomfortable under the scrutiny ofstrangers.

Victor and Josh paled with shock—especially Victor. He stared from a distance at his long-neglected wife, and his eyes graduallyreddened with simmering resentment.

He knew full well what Jameson was up to. Now that he was doing well in the Schmidt family, he would undoubtedly prioritizemaking amends to his mother—compensating her for the years of suffering and indignity she endured.

However, betrayal was a betrayal.

Lily had nailed him to the pillar of shame for a lifetime, and nothing could change that. And now, Jameson was openly paradingher around. He was obviously testing Victor's limits and rubbing salt in his wounds.

It also illustrated one thing very clearly—despite Jameson's efforts to please Victor, he was not truly aligned with him. He had hisown agenda.

"Dad, Jimmy is selfish and rude!"

Josh gritted his teeth as he stared at Jameson and Lily. "Why did Jimmy bring that crazy woman here? Is he trying to make us alaughingstock?"

"That matter was finally put to rest, but that woman's appearance will only bring it all back to light. Jimmy always talks aboutrespecting you, but he doesn't care about you at all! He's just cunning! You've loved him for nothing!"

Victor's expression grew even darker upon hearing this.Meanwhile, the surrounding guests gazed at Lily in astonishment as they gossiped.

"Is that the infamous Mrs. Schmidt? My goodness. What has become of her? She doesn't look like an upper-class lady at all.Just a weak, old woman."

"She seems to be mentally ill."

"| heard she was abandoned by the Schmidt family in Kontina for many years, left to fend for herself.

Can you blame her for having mental issues?"

"They were married, after all. Mr. Victor is really ruthless."

"J-Jimmy." Trembling, Lily tugged at Jameson's shirt. "| don't like these kinds of gatherings. Can we go home, please?"

"Mom, I'm here with you. Don't be afraid," Jameson whispered in her ear. "Not only do you have me, but Lyse is here too. Look."Following his intense gaze, Lily suddenly spotted Alyssa standing gracefully nearby.

Asmile of joy spread across her hollow face, and her eyes lit up. She suddenly shouted, "Lyse! Lyse!”

All eyes instantly converged on Alyssa.

Upon seeing Jameson pushing Lily toward her, Alyssa couldn't help but hold her breath, yet she maintained a polite and gracefulsmile.

"Mrs. Schmidt, it's been a while. How have you been?"Jasper's hand on Alyssa's waist was tense. He stared fixedly at Jameson, restraining his surging anger.As Jameson adjusted his glasses, their eyes met, and a hint of mockery flashed in Jameson's eyes.

“Lyse, | missed you so much."

Lily, already emotionally unstable due to her surroundings, now saw Alyssa as a lifeline. She grabbed Alyssa's hand tightly andheld it in her hands.

"Have you been busy lately? Whyhaven't | seen you visiting JimmyAre you two Qn baghtefa\s*pidJiminy Set you? Lyse, don't bemad at him. You're really importantto him." The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!

The surrounding discussions grew even louder with her words.novelbin

Although Lily's words were innocent, they carried a different meaning to those who heard them."Why does it sound like Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Jameson have some history?"

"Could Ms. Alyssa's ex be Mr. Jameson? Haha! This trip is worthwhile. We get to witness a drama."“What about Mr. Beckett? Did he date Ms. Alyssa after or during her relationship with Mr. Jameson?"

"Ms. Alyssa certainly has a knack formen. The heirs in Solana City grerallunder her Bune Wa r. Landonirfollidied, they could play afour-player game." The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!

The gossip spread and became increasingly malicious.

Alyssa remained indifferent. Being content and happy with what she had, she was immune to negativity, so she treated theirwords as mere noise.

However, Jasper couldn't stand it any longer. His eyes flashed with hostility as his chilling gaze swept over those gossipers.Suddenly, a clear and angry voice rang out.

"Don't say that about Alyssa! Alyssaonly loves Jasper and has only beenwith hi None ef youbdow Alyssa.What right do you have to say suchthings about her?" The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!
