Chapter 109
Throughout the journey back home, Alyssa did not utter a word. She looked spent, just like
a
broken robot.
Jasper’s unforgiving words felt like someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her.
She was shaking in rage from head to toe. Why had she never noticed that shameless and
vile side of him?
Love might not guarantee happiness, but it would certainly turn you blind.
“Ms. Alyssa, I have played the video per your instruction. Look, Betty is fighting her two
friends!”
Sean showed her the video on a phone screen.
She glanced at the screen and saw the three women clawing at each other in a horrible
catfight.
“Tsk tsk. Cat fights are the worst. Ms. Betty is doing pretty well. She’s still holding up even
when she’s fighting the two of them. It’s a pity she didn’t train for wrestling.” Sean
chuckled with glee.
“Hmph. They’re slapping each other and pulling each other’s hair. Nothing interesting
about
those amateur moves.”

Despite that, Alyssa couldn’t take her eyes off the screen. She secretly enjoyed watching
it. The fight among the three women was oddly stress–relieving.
“Did Jasper delete all the photos for real?” Sean still hadn’t gotten over how Jasper had
taken
advantage of Alyssa by holding her waist.
However, he reminded himself that Jasper and Alyssa must have engaged in more
intimate acts during their marriage of three years. He had no right to feel angry about
their physical contact.
“He has definitely deleted them. He might dislike Betty, but he needed to protect the
reputation of the Beckett Group. To put it in a nice way, he’s focused on the big picture.
But you could also say
he’s heartless to his family.”
Sighing, she unlocked her phone. She was surprised that Jasper had remembered her
passcode. Perhaps, he accidentally glanced when she was unlocking her phone one day
and memorized the
passcode until now.
Still, that meant nothing. Jasper, who had never loved her truly, would never figure out the
meaning behind the passcode.
It was the date when Jasper saved her from the mountains thirteen years ago. That was
also their first encounter. She lamented, thinking that her love and affection probably
meant nothing to him.
“What do we do next? Ms. Betty will not listen to us now that we lost our bargaining chip
to Jasper.
Sean sighed sullenly.

Suddenly, Alysan gasped as her eyes widened. She found Jasper’s number in her contact
list.
“A fucking roque! He’s a sly and unstoppable rascal!” She silently cursed him.
At might, Jasper returned to the Seaview Manor from the Beckett Group office. It had been
drizzling for a while. He stared at the condensation on the car window, which reminded
him of
Alice’s eyes
However, her eyes were filled with endless resentment, which added to his glum mood.
He lifted his chin. The neon lights from the outside illuminated his jaw and added a touch
of S**y charm. He tugged on the perfect Windsor knot on his tie. The smoothness of the
fabric reminded
hum of Alice’s tiny waist.
He swallowed hard as he breathed shallowly. He desperately wanted to chase the memory
of her eyes out of his mind but to no avail.
Alice White was getting bolder by the day. Back then, she was too shy to even hold his
hand during their marriage. However, after their divorce, she brazenly challenged him in

public. What
did she take him for?
“Mr. Jasper Xavier timidly called out to him with hesitation.
“Go on.” Jasper sounded unfriendly because he was frustrated by his thoughts of Alice.
“Um… Ms. Betty’s scandal is the talk of the town. The popular sentiment is that rich kids
are assholes who think they can walk over other people. Do you think we should…‘
“Leave it.”
“I fear that Madam Sophia will complain to Mr. Javier if we do nothing. He might give you
trouble.
“Xavier was concerned.
Jasper’s eyes darkened as a smirk appeared on his lips. “What are you afraid of when I
have nothing to fear?”
Then, they heard a text notification on Xavier’s phone.
“Mr. Jasper, I received the surveillance footage you requested for.”
Jasper looked up and took the phone from Xavier. He saw the scene where Alice was
confronting
Betty. Betty was acting brashly and making threats. He watched as Alice fought back
against Betty, who had attempted to hit her.
