Chapter 351
Zoe’s back was to the entrance, so Jasper’s gaze was fixed right on her.
“Jasper …” she murmured, blushing red as she strode up to him.
Suddenly, a sensual scent, like the smell of roses, wafted in from around her, whispering of danger.
Someone walked past her, their heels clicking loudly against the floor. Zoe felt herself overcome bytheir
force of unwavering confidence.
Jasper stared sternly at Alyssa as she walked over to them. The latter was clad in a woman’s suit, andher
fiery red lipstick made his heart leap at the sight.
A wave of intense gossip and hushed conversations swept through the crowd. It was impossible for
anyone not to have noticed her by this point.
Sophia and Betty were both left in shock by her sudden arrival.
“Hold on, I recognize her-she was featured in a magazine not too long ago. She’s the daughter of
Winston Taylor, who happens to be the President of KS Group, and she also manages KS WorldHotel!”
“Yeah! Her name is Alyssa Taylor!”
“Was she the one who had been involved with Jasper Beckett? One look at her, and you’d swoon!”
“She’s like a modern-day Queen of Sheba. Just look at how regal and elegant she is,”
“I don’t know who you’re referring to. All I know is that she and Jasper Beckett complement each other
very well. They should seriously consider uniting their families through marriage!”
Jasper, who had been getting irritated listening to the gossip, relaxed upon hearing that last sentence.It
didn’t sound too bad.
Zoe was furious from the tips of her toes to the ends of her ears as Alyssa stole everyone’s attention
away from herself. What was even more infuriating was the passion and fervor in Jasper’s eyes as he
gazed at Alyssa.
Zoe couldn’t recall him ever looking so alive or eager toward another woman.
Was he still in love with Alyssa?
“I hope Mr. Jasper and Madam Ada can pardon my unannounced intrusion,” Alyssa greeted the twowithnovelbin
a smile.
She had opted to address Ada as “Madam” to show respect, particularly due to their age difference andthe formality of the situation.
“Of course not, Ms. Alyssa.” Jasper could only nod in her direction. “I would’ve sent you an invitation if Ihad known you were joining us tonight.”
Alyssa’s smile didn’t reach her eyes. “No need to trouble yourself with that, Mr. Jasper. I have nointention of participating in your party tonight.”
That made Jasper’s expression fall just the slightest.
Behind him, Xavier was frantically texting the guards outside the hotel.
“What is going on?”
“We’re so sorry, Mr. Xavier! We have no idea where Ms. Alyssa entered from either…’
Π
“What? Were any of you doing your jobs properly? She can’t have appeared out of thin air!”
“We will take full responsibility for our mistakes, sir. We’ll get Ms. Alyssa out right away!”
