Jasper responded, "I'm just curious."
"I didn't do much. I just disfigured her," Landon revealed.
When Landon recalled the pitiful state Betty was in when she was tortured in the warehouse that day,he couldn't
help but laugh.
"Oh, no wonder. I was wondering why I hadn't seen her lately. She's probably too embarrassed to showher face in
public anymore."
Jasper nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly looked at Landon seriously. "During this time when you'vebeen staying
with Lauren, you didn't do anything to her, did you?"
At this question, Landon's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly recalled the scene from last night where he and Lauren were entangled in the bathroom,kissing as if
they couldn't bear to part. At once, he felt a rush of heat from his lower abdomen.novelbin
Just as he was unsure how to answer, Xavier urgently ran over from the other end of the corridor.
"M-Mr. Beckett, Ms. Alyssa is here."
Hearing that, Landon widened his eyes and looked at Jasper.
Meanwhile, upon hearing that Alyssa was here, Jasper seemed to be in a daze and asked again,"Who's here?"
"Ms. Alyssa. Alyssa Taylor. She's in the banquet hall right now." Xavier was ecstatic and couldn't stopgrinning.
That was because he hadn't seen his boss' wife for quite some time.
He didn't know whether Jasper missed her, but Xavier missed her quite a bit.
"Jasper, is Lyse here to see you? Damn, your patience paid off!" Landon excitedly patted Jasper on theshoulder.
"Many elite figures in Solana City will be at the cocktail party tonight."
Suppressing his emotions, Jasper said solemnly, "She might just be here to expand her social network.After all, she
will inherit the Taylor family business."
"My goodness. Why don't you think positively for once? You're really something else."
Landon turned to Xavier and asked, "Did Lyse come alone, or did she come with Jonah?"
Xavier replied, "Neither. She came with a stranger."
"Is it that bastard, Schmidt?" Landon thought of Jameson and couldn't help but get angry.
"No, it's not him. It's a guy who looks ... exceptionally beautiful, somewhat androgynous."
Although Xavier only glanced at Julien from a distance, the latter left a deep impression because of hisextraordinary appearance.
Upon hearing this, Jasper had a surge of emotions.
It wasn't one of Alyssa's brothers, not Jameson, and not even someone that Xavier knew.
He thought he had completely given up on Alyssa. However, whenever there was something related toher, he couldn't ignore it.
