Chapter 438
The surrounding guests and reporters shot Alyssa incredulous, awe-filled looks.
“My apologies, Madam Yves. I didn’t know you were waiting for me,” Alyssa said with a blush.
Yves grinned. “Don’t sweat it. You’ve had a busy night.”
She then wrapped an arm around Alyssa’s shoulders, making the two look quite like close friends. Shenovelbin
said to the reporters, “Come on, where are our photos?”
Alyssa was just as shocked as everyone else.
This was the first time a cold, terrifying, dominating woman like Yves had initiated a photo withsomeone
else.
The reporters thought that Alyssa must be someone special or unique to have caught her attention.
How tremendous!
Betty and Zoe were devastated, especially the latter, who felt shame burst inside her veins likefireworks.
Why?
Why was this happening?
Why were all the famous, influential, powerful people flocking toward Alyssa?
Zoe couldn’t figure out why.
Alyssa did her best to appear calm and happy while taking the photo with Yves, though her heart was
pounding against her ribcage like an excited little beast. Her image should have gained some positivityby
now.
After taking the photo, Yves and Alyssa went somewhere private to converse.
“Thank you so much, Madam Yves,” Alyssa said, her tone sincere.
Alyssa continued, “I’m sure you saw the trouble I was in earlier with the other reporters. Your gesture
earlier signified your approval of me and thus helped me regain my footing.”
“Ms. Alyssa.
“i know we’re on the same team in this event. Your helping me will also ensure the event goessmoothly
and well Alyssa smiled. Regardless, I’m still deeply grateful.”
“I didn’t help you just because we’re working together, Ms. Alyssa.” Yves’ tone and gaze were filled witha kind, caring warmth. “Your brother Jonah asked me to help you and watch over you tonight.”
Shock flitted across Alyssa’s gaze.
Jonah was always like this, taking care of her even when he wasn’t around. But in this case, he wastaking
advantage of Yves’ feelings for him. That wasn’t very kind of him!
“I know how large an impact your hotel has suffered since Ada stopped working with you.” Yves took off
her shades, her expression now serious.
Yves continued, “I can ask her to reconsider later. We’ve known each other for years.”
“No, no, please don’t!” Alyssa shook her head. “You’ve helped so much already. I couldn’t possiblyaccept
more!”
“Are you worried you’ll owe me one, girl?” Yves smiled, patting her shoulder reassuringly. “Don’t be. I’m
doing all this of my own volition.
“There is no such thing as owing any favors. Jonah has told you about my feelings for him, hasn’t he?”
Alyssa nodded, biting her lip.
“He loves you dearly. You’re the most important person in his life right now. That means you’reimportant
to me, too.
“I’ve loved him for ten years but never sought anything in return. All I ask is that he continues letting medo so, nothing more.”
