Alyssa wasn’t oblivious to his gaze. She pursed her rosy l*ps subtly, deliberately avoiding his intensestare.
Then, the trio entered the police station. Even though it was night, the sight of Alyssa and Jasperwalking in together drew astonished glances from the officers.

She closed her eyes, but she couldn’t stop the tears streaming down. her face.
“Lyse! Are you okay? Do you need to rest for a while?”

Jasper didn’t know how to react.
“Ahem… Before you leave, give me your suit. I’ll find someone to dry clean it and have it sent back toyou.”
“Why do you want to clean it?”
Jasper narrowed his eyes, smiling brightly. His smile pierced her heart. “There’s no need to wash it. It’sfine just like this.”
