Chapter 793
Penelope choked at Alyssa’s words, her heart rate becoming irregular.
Alyssa couldn’t help but notice that Penelope’s comebacks were not as sharp as Sophia’s. It seemed
ridiculous to Alyssa that Penelope dared to challenge her with such responses.
“Alyssa! How dare you contradict my mother like that! You’re so disrespectful! She’s your elder!” Zoe,
holding Cornelius, acted like a watchdog, barking loudly at Alyssa.
Jasper overheard, and his eyebrows tightened, expressing clear disdain for Zoe.
“Does age automatically make someone an ‘elder’? Following that logic, I’m also your elder. Is it
appropriate to address elders this way?”
Alyssa, who was a head taller than Zoe, coldly looked down at her, intensifying the pressure on Zoe.
Zoe trembled, her lips quivering. She was afraid to retort further for fear of Alyssa’s harsh words.
Penelope was aware that Cornelius wouldn’t create problems for Winston’s daughter over such a minor
issue. So she kept sending frantic eye signals to Landon, urging her son to restore her honor.
Landon’s gaze flickered. He cleared his throat and spoke timidly, “Well … Alyssa, I…”
Alyssa’s eyes flickered, and her cold gaze fell on his face.
Landon Harper, the all-capable demon king, quickly changed his stance, saying, “I-I’ll take you back.It’s
already late. It’s not safe.”
“No need. I drove here.”
Alyssa, without looking back, swiftly walked out of the villa gate. Her high heels echoing crisply.
Landon scratched his head, feeling embarrassed.
Cornelius snorted angrily, feeling that his grandson was too obedient to Winston’s daughter.
It was embarrassing!
“Let’s go!”
The Harper family members all walked out in a rush.
“Sophia, leaning against Javier, moaned weakly. It was as if she had no bones. ‘Ah… my head… I feelso
dizzy.”

Rosie glanced at Sophia and muttered disdainfully, “Ha, either acting like a pitiful victim or feigningdizziness. Your acting skills from your acting days are quite apparent. It’s no surprise you were
overshadowed by Ms. Lyia Nelson for so long.”
Sophia heard every word clearly, and they fueled her anger.
Javier’s expression stiffened, his face turning pale. After a silent moment, he murmured to Rosie, “Mrs.
Rosie, help Madam get back to the room.”
“Sorry, Mr. Javier. I’m only responsible for Mr. Jasper’s daily life, and I need to prepare a bath for himnow.
Please get someone else to take care of Madam. Madam probably wouldn’t want me to attend to her,
too. She might not feel comfortable around me.”
Rosie then left with a disgruntled face.
Rosie’s response left Javier without words.
Jasper stood alone, his expression a mix of reluctance and anger, portraying a forsaken figure. He
seemed overwhelmed with melancholy and sorrow.
“Jasper! Why are you still standing here?” Landon walked up to Jasper, pushing him hard. His face was
anxious. “Alyssa is about to leave. You finally met her. So go and stop her! Explain the situationbetween
you and my sister!”novelbin
Jasper’s breath hitched. His feet seemed to be filled with lead, making him heavy.
On their way back, Cornelius drove one car, and Penelope and Zoe took another.
In the car, Penelope was still indignant, full of resentment.
In her youth, she was protected by her husband, and in her middle age, her son cared for her. Whenhad
she ever experienced such humiliation as tonight?
“Mom, Landon publicly questioned me in front of the Beckett family and Grandpa! He used despicable
means to prevent me from marrying Jasper. He’s so despicable!”
Zoe cried and leaned into her mother’s arms.
Zoe continued, “He only cares about seeking his own happiness and doesn’t consider my life at all!Does
he still see me as a sister? In his eyes, I’m just an enemy!”
