"Ms. Zoe said she and Madam Lauren were schoolmates from middle school and had a pretty good bond during those days. She said she's had time to think about her past actions and said she shouldn't have been so selfish and reckless. "That's why Ms. Zoe came over wanting to talk to Madam Lauren to make up with her," Angelina explained."Do you buy that shit?" Landon snapped.Angelina replied faintly, "I didn't let her into the house.""So Zoe hurt you just because you wouldn't let her see Madam?"Angelina stayed silent."Hmph! Then all that she said about making up was nothing more than bullshit!" Landon took a deep breath to suppress his rage. "Zoe was looking to ambush Lauren today. She's so good at putting up an act these days you'd think Sophia adopted her!"Angelina smiled in exasperation."You've suffered much from being pitted between me and my sister while taking care of Lauren," Landon said with a sigh, feeling guilty. "Why don't you take a vacation starting tomorrow? I'

Thank you for tending to the house these past few days, Rosie," Jasper said to Rosie as he stood before her with an arm hooked around Alyssa's waist. They appeared quite like young newlyweds who had just returned from their honeymoon.Alyssa and Jasper cleverly knew not to reveal Jasper's injuries to Rosie. Rosie was old, so it was better not to make her worry.Just then, the doorbell rang.Xavier entered with two large lunch boxes. He was sweating and panting."Mr. Beckett! I've finally gotten the food you had me order from the Nouveau Table!" "The Nouveau Table? My goodness! The waiting list for that restaurant is terribly long. It takes at least three hours of waiting."Alyssa swallowed a mouthful of saliva before complaining to Jasper, "Why did you have to make things difficult for Xavier?""Because you were craving good food.""When?""Last night in your sleep," Jasper murmured in Alyssa's ear before chuckling.Alyssa blushed. "I-It was just dream talking!""Thank you

"What right does Mr. Justin have to just demand what he wants?" Xavier said, his fists balling up. "The company wouldn't have reached its height today without you. You have shed blood, sweat, and tears to make this company great. "You nearly lost your life in an accident while supervising the development lots yourself. You haven't even begun to enjoy the fruits of your labor, so how dare Mr. Justin come back and reap what you have sowed?"So what if Mr. Javier is backing him up? You're doted on by Mr. Beckett Senior! A son has to listen to his father no matter what!""What are you going on about father and son?" Alyssa's voice rang out suddenly.Jasper quickly signaled for Xavier to be quiet. His gloomy expression switched to a warm, loving one.Alyssa walked toward them with some mugs of tea in her hands. "What are you two going on about so loudly? You sound so riled up, Xavier.""It's nothing important. He gets riled up just by watching stray mutts fight over a bone." Jasper w

"Oh my goodness, I nearly forgot!" Cyrus suddenly smacked his forehead. His eyes were glowing excitedly. "You helped us solve two murder cases before! One was by pinpointing material evidence that gave us a breakthrough, and the other was identifying mistakes in a suspect's statement, which made the criminal come clean!"Jasper stared at Alyssa in sheer awe.How could Alyssa be so phenomenal? There was no way he could catch up to her at this rate.Jasper used to think he was pretty decent. But now, he felt like a piece of used tissue paper in front of Alyssa."Looks like you still remember my achievements, Cyrus," Alyssa teased. "If it weren't for Winston, Mandy, and everyone else holding me back, I would've become a gun-slinging police officer myself. You might even be calling me Madam right now.""That's only because everyone worried you would be in danger being out on the front lines every day. They all dote on you, after all. But they still couldn't stop you in the end, no? Yo

Jeffrey sneered but said nothing."So why don't we work together? You can testify that Sophia was the one who instructed you to kill Nina. In return, we'll make sure you return to Tsulu within the year. You saw how close my sister was to the royal family. All that's needed to get you back home safe is a kind word from my sister to the queen."Alyssa then ended her words with, "How about it, Mr. Snyder? Why don't you consider our offer?"Shock rippled in Jasper's eyes.Alyssa's attitude, consideration, and mindset were just as keen as Jasper's and the other men in the business world. In fact, many of the big leagues couldn't even compare.Jasper was fortunate Alyssa was kind at heart and that she loved him. Who knows what kind of torment Jasper would suffer from her? It must be the devastating kind.Jeffrey chuckled. He said sarcastically, "If someone else offered this deal to me today, I might actually take it up. But since it's you who's suggesting it, Ms. Alyssa, then I do not
