“Mr. Jasper wears his watch all year round. It’s not because he likes to do so. It is so that he can coverup the scar on his wrist.”
Alyssa was his wife. Naturally, she knew about his scar.
However, she had thought it was a battle scar he received from the battlefield during his military days.She never expected there to be such a painful history hidden behind that long, terrifying scar.
“I’m sure you must have been curious about why Mr. Jasper insisted on staying by Liana’s side backthen, given that she was such a cunning, selfish, and materialistic woman.
“That was all because he places too much value on his relationships. He was also naive as he hadnever come in contact with any other woman other than her.
“Plus, she was also the one who discovered him in time and saved him when he slit his wrist that year.If not for her, Mr. Jasper probably wouldn’t be here.”
Rosie rubbed her swollen eyes and continued, “Not only that, when Mr. Jasper was young, he waslabeled as an illegitimate child. His schoolmates ostracized him. No one was willing to get close to himexcept Liana.
“I was quite puzzled at the time. I wondered how such a young girl could have the patience andmaturity that superseded her peers.
“It turned out that it was all by Sophia’s instruction. She had orchestrated it all! And her motive was sothat she could control Mr. Jasper through Liana!
“It was such a misfortune for Mr. Jasper. He was still so young when player, the enemy’s niece,contributed to his undoing!
“Www. of all souls, did hardship choose Mr. Jasper as its canvas?”
Rosie couldn’t help but cry as she recounted.
Alyssa was in disbelief, and all her thoughts had vanished. It felt as though a lightning bolt had struckher, leaving every nerve in her body devoid of sensation.
The profound shock robbed her of words, rendering her speechless. Naturally, she hated Liana to thebone.
Suddenly, Alyssa comprehended the reason behind Jasper’s unwavering determination to be withLiana.
Perhaps, back then, he was innocently under the impression that she loved him. Maybe even thinkingthat Liana was sincere toward him and that she was his lifesaver and guiding light.
No wonder he had no room in his heart for her then. In his position, she would have exhibited identicalbehavior.
“With that said, Mr. Jasper has truly repented. He has also completely moved on from that Gardnerbitch.”
The edges of Alyssa’s eyes betrayed a reddish tint. Rosie met her gaze squarely and shared, “Iencountered Xavier that day when he returned to Seaview Manor to gather some of Mr. Jasper’spossessions.
“He told me you’ve found out what happened at the East Side Phoenix. Lake villa. I was told that yougot very mad at Mr. Jasper because of that. You thought he kept that villa because he still cared for
Liana.”
“Rosie, I…” Alyssa stuttered bitterly. The look in her eyes was hazy.
“Xavier is normally all smiles. But that day, he cried his eyes out
The thought of how Xavier was the other day made Rosie feel powerless and distressed. “He told methat if you and Mr. Jasper were not going to reconcile, he would remain a sinner for the rest of his life.
“He said he would be too embarrassed to stay by Mr. Jasper’s side. He wanted to resign-finishing hiswork and handing everything over.”
“Resign? But why?” Alyssa asked with a look of surprise.
“He said that on the same night after Mr. Jasper and Liana separated, Mr. Jasper already ordered himto sell the villa. He had been instructed to burn everything related to Liana-not to leave a single trace ofher behind.novelbin
“It was just that the property market at Solana City wasn’t great at the time. There were no interestedbuyers, and Xavier had his hands full. So, he ended up pushing this task on the back burner.
“After that, he said Mr. Landon had brought Mr. Jasper to that house to stay that particular night. Youwent over to look after him but ended up seeing what you shouldn’t have seen.
“When Mr. Jasper woke up, he almost beat Mr. Landon into a pulp. Things got really awkward betweenthe both of them after that. It almost cost them their brotherhood of 20 years.”
Alyssa’s eyes widened slowly, and her breathing became uneven in response.
“Xavier was shocked. He could barely sleep for the next few days. Now that he has dealt with thehouse and things, he was trying to find. a suitable opportunity to apologize to you in person.
“He doesn’t care if you scold him, beat him up, or command him to do anything. He just doesn’t wantyou to ignore Mr. Jasper.”
“To be frank, Mrs. Rosie, that incident is already past
Alyssa held tightly onto Rosie’s hand. She said in a hushed tone, “It’s true that I was furious. I justdidn’t want to see anything related to Liana around him. But now that the misunderstanding has beenresolved, I am not angry anymore. I mean it.”
“I understand! I truly get you! Mr. Jasper harbors no ill intentions, nor is he a deceitful man. He only hasone shortcoming-he possesses poor emotional intelligence. Mr. Jasper is really dumb!
“I noticed your anger toward Mr. Jasper tonight. What did he do wrong? Tell me, and I will teach him alesson.
“I’ll spank him with my shoe to vent on your behalf. Then, I’ll make him apologize to you in person!”Rosie exclaimed with a face full of righteous anger.
The way she spoke was as if she were Alyssa’s family.
