However, in Alyssa’s heart, was he truly her limit? He might not even measure up to Jameson in hereyes.
As Jasper pondered, he experienced an overwhelming mix of discontent, anger, and loss, making it
unbearable. He forcefully averted his gaze from Alyssa’s captivating beauty, no longer looking at her.
As if they shared a telepathic connection, Alyssa stole a glance at him. Upon witnessing his cold,
determined gaze fixed ahead, her heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
Sophia shivered violently. Her heart leaped into her throat, making it difficult to breathe. Now, Javierhad
lost control over Jasper, and her man was no longer a reliable pillar of support.

In the last few months of Anne’s life, she left this world under the dual torment of physical and mental
pain.
The revelation of this secret must remain buried in the shadows.
The day it sees the light of day would spell Sophia’s doom.
Sophia clung to Javier’s clothes. Her tears streaming down as she pleaded, “Javier, are you truly goingto
stand by and witness me being beaten like this? I’m your wife.”
Having been unsuccessful in maintaining an assertive front, she had to resort to portraying herself as
pitiable.
She understood Javier very well. He was most vulnerable to this.
Javier held his breath while supporting Sophia, his hand stiffening.
“Go back to your room, freshen up. I’ll arrange for Betty and the secretary to take you to the hospital.”
“No,” Jasper responded coldly.
“Jasper, what are you planning again?” Javier’s brows furrowed.
Jasper, too, furrowed his brows, and his gaze turned intimidating.
“It’s just a slap. It won’t be fatal. But the issue between Sophia and Alyssa must be settled tonight.”
Alyssa’s heart skipped a beat, and she bit her lips lightly.
“How many times do I have to say it? Lyla’s case has nothing to do with me. I don’t even know the
attacker! Alyssa made it up to frame me!” Sophia hysterically shouted.
“Mrs. Beckett, consider heeding Mr. Javier’s advice and visiting the hospital for a check-up. It’sessential
to rule out any early signs of dementia,” Alyssa said, glancing at Sophia’s pale face with disdain.
Sophia seethed through gritted teeth, “Alyssa!”
After hearing this, Cornelius raised his gray eyebrows. “Is this girl from the Taylor family really that
outspoken?”
“Yeah, Dad. Alyssa Taylor has always been like this, aggressive and hot-tempered in her actions.”
Penelope resembles Aunt Alexandra from “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Naturally, she disapproved ofAlyssa’s
behavior.
Cornelius cleared his throat before saying, “It’s fine for a girl to be a bit fierce and hot-tempered. Thisgirl’s
family background matches her temper. She looks beautiful, too. It’s just a pity she’s a divorcee.
Otherwise, she would be a good match for Landon.”
Penelope stood in stunned silence, shocked.
Zoe was scared, her heart racing. “Grandpa! What are you saying? Alyssa is just a second-hand itemthat
Jasper rejected. How could she be a match for my brother?”
“Second-hand? Ms. Alyssa is exceptional. Even if she’s been divorced a hundred times, I’m sure there
would still be men eager to be with her,” Cornelius remarked nonchalantly.
