After greeting the guests, Rose brought Alyssa to her studio. The mentor and mentee were as close as sisters. They chatted and laughed merrily in private.There, Rose served Alyssa excellent tea and desserts from the top pastry chefs in the nation. Not even the guests on the first floor had the honor of tasting the delicacies."Madam, have some tea!""Oh, the valuable spring tea! It's bright green with a rich aroma and a deep flavor profile. This is good." Smiling, Alyssa savored the tea. She wrapped her slender fingers around the cup as she sipped. Her graceful demeanor denoted her excellent upbringing in a wealthy family. Her noble air was the culmination of a distinguished pedigree that could not be copied."I feel honored when you enjoy the tea." Rose grinned. She always wore a cool and chic image in public. Yet, she'd turn into a silly and good-natured young lady in front of Alyssa.Their first encounter happened six years back. Rose was talented in fashion design and bless

Alyssa and her dance partner held hands and bowed to the audience when the dance ended. Her captivating dance elevated the cocktail party into a high-end ball.Liana was green with envy when she heard everyone praising Alice. In her teens, she was once a talented pianist who was good at singing and dancing too. For that, she had won many awards.However, after going abroad, she busied herself with dating and having fun to the point where she abandoned her practice."Jasper, wasn't Ms. White awesome? But I don't think it's appropriate for her to dance in public in that revealing dress. I would have been too ashamed to do that …"Her attempts at backstabbing Alyssa were of no use because Jasper was nowhere to be found when she turned around.…Jasper shuffled to the backstage corridor. Despite his best efforts at self-control, he could not shut down the imagery of Alice's allure in his mind. His throat was getting dry.He forced himself not to think of his behavior as falling fo

Liana started, "I—""You shouldn't pick a fight. Alice did not give you a hard time today, did she?" Jasper cast a wintry look at Liana's pale face. He continued, "You should put your grudges behind you since she and I are divorced. I will finalize the divorce after Grandpa's birthday. From then on, she and I will have nothing to do with each other. I hope you act sensibly. That's the only thing I ask of you."After that, he did not speak to Liana until their Maybach arrived at Seaview Manor. She endured the silent treatment from her fiancé while silently cursing out Alice."I'll go get changed upstairs." He left her with a glum look. Liana gritted her teeth, thinking that she hadn't done anything wrong. It was Alice who had robbed her of the marriage and claimed Jasper for three years. A couple of taunts were nothing. Even if she were to kill Alice, that wouldn't be enough to quell her resentment.Why would Jasper side with Alice? Why?…Half an hour later, Jasper descended

"I stole the Antique Rosewood Chair from your dad for you!" Colene sounded as happy as a child."Sorry for the trouble! I'll have to thank you when we meet again." Alyssa rubbed her hands excitedly."It's not a problem as long as it makes you happy!""What will you do if Winston learns about it?" Alyssa was worried for Colene. However, Colene was cool about it. "I'm childless, so I have nothing to fear. If anything bad happens to me, just take care of my funeral!"Alyssa was left speechless at her quirky stepmom.…Night fell. After a busy day, Sean drove Alyssa back to the villa. She kicked off her heels and changed into a pair of soft, red velvety slippers. Stretching, she decided to enjoy a bubble bath."Ms. Alyssa, I'll get the bath ready." Sean quickly rolled his sleeves."It's fine. I can do it. Can you throw together a simple dinner? " She gave him a tired smile."Sure. What would you like?" "A blue cheese chicken sandwich."Sean hated the smell of blue cheese, but

Alyssa said, "Let's do another one.""But you promised to do me a favor!" Landon frowned like a little brat."I really can't agree to that." Alyssa put on a serious face. "I promised Grandpa to show up as his daughter-in-law for the birthday. I will have nothing to do with the Beckett Family after that. "I'm afraid I'll only upset him if I show up to his birthday with a male partner. It's my wish to grant him a memorable 80th birthday. I don't have much time with him, anyway …"A tinge of wistfulness crept into her eyes."Alice, you're a lovely woman. Jasper lost out on you because he's blind!" Landon sighed. Upon second thought, he wouldn't have had a chance with Alice had it not been for Jasper's mistake. Jasper's loss was Landon's gain—a chance at love and happiness!"That's why I wanted us to do another one." She caressed the sculpture with much affection."How about you call me by my name? 'Mr. Harper' sounds too formal." He blinked earnestly."Is that it? My favors don
