Chapter 774
At this point, everyone knew that Jasper had someone in his heart, and that particular someone wastheir
former madam.
Why did Alyssa suddenly appear now? What was she here for?
Did she hear about the Harper family pressuring Jasper into marriage, so she came to save him?
Alyssa wore a tight black dress draped with a stylish black velvet shrug. Her hair swayed down to herwaist, and her red lips were vivid. She looked cool and elegant.
Two initially contradictory qualities harmonized perfectly in her. She was truly astonishing.
She exerted such pressure on Zoe with a single assured glance that the latter couldn’t lift her head.
Upon seeing Alyssa’s sudden appearance, Penelope quickly pressed on her tightened chest.
When she recalled Alyssa’s deeds, she felt that even their entire family joining forces might not beenough to compete with her. Penelope’s not-so-healthy heart couldn’t take it.
“Grandpa, she’s the one I mentioned to you, Alyssa,” Zoe urgently whispered to Cornelius.
Zoe added, “She used to bully me a lot. Grandpa, you must help me get justice.”novelbin
Cornelius stared at Alyssa’s face, feeling complicated.
Although he was meeting Alyssa for the first time, her father, Winston, was an old acquaintance.
They might not be friends, but Winston’s character was well-regarded in their circle. He could confrontJavier but found it hard to make things difficult for Winston’s daughter.
“Good evening, Mr. Javier. I apologize for the sudden visit. Oh, Mr. Cornelius, you’re here too.”
Smiling, Alyssa greeted Cornelius. “I’m Alyssa. Nice to meet you, Mr. Cornelius.”
Graceful and sensible, she was indeed raised by Winston.
Zoe anxiously urged Cornelius, “Grandpa! Grandpa, why aren’t you saying anything? She not onlybullied
me but is also my rival for Jasper!”
Hearing that, Cornelius pressed his lips together. This grudge was not something he couldn’t help his
granddaughter settle.
However, as a big shot who had been through life and death, he couldn’t stoop to the level of quarreling
with a young woman.
Meanwhile, Jasper’s intense gaze was still on Alyssa’s stunning face.
His brain told him that this woman had hurt him deeply and he should be angry. But his heart and body
were on fire, with passionate hormones telling him he longed for her.
“Ms. Alyssa, what brings you here and at such a late hour too?” Javier asked with a half-smile,maintaining
a distant attitude toward his former daughter-in-law.
“That’s right, Ms. Alyssa. You just said it yourself that it was an impromptu visit. It’s quite rude to come
unannounced.”
Sophia added with a smirk, “Didn’t you see? We have an esteemed guest here, and we’re discussingimportant matters. It’s inappropriate for an outsider to listen. If there’s good news, we’ll inform youlater.”
Sophia’s words were loaded with implication and sarcasm.
At once, Jasper’s expression turned cold. Just as he parted his lips, Alyssa calmly said, “MadamSophia, you misunderstood. I’m not interested in the conversation between your two families at all. I’mhere to
see you.”
Everyone was puzzled, exchanging glances.
Stunned, Sophia frowned. “Me? Why?”
“Would you like to have a private chat, or should I speak openly right here?” Alyssa smiled, her eyes
twinkling menacingly.
