Chapter 651
Alyssa hummed a tune and headed for the event hall, knowing that Brie was done for
good. That put her
in a great mood.
Given her understanding of Josh-no, her understanding of men in general-their egos often
got the
better of them. Now that Brie had disgraced Josh, she had landed herself in hot water.
Alyssa believed Brie deserved everything that had happened for bullying Lauren. (2)
“Lyse.” Suddenly, she heard a low and affectionate voice calling out from behind. Her
heart skipped a
beat, and she clenched her fists.

away with an
exquisite gift box in his hand. He marched up to her with a regal air about him.
“I’m here,” he said to her tenderly.
Alyssa replied flatly, “Okay.”
He pursed his lips and looked apologetic. “I’m sorry. I wanted to come early and lend you a
hand, but I still
got late.” T
Jasper, who was always haughty, looked humble in front of Alyssa.
She scoffed. “Why would we need an outsider to help with a family event?”

“He’s chatting with Mr. Taylor in the reception,” Jasper replied.
“Fine. I’ll go greet him. Make yourself at home,” she said, her voice devoid of any emotion,
and she turned
to leave.
“Lyse!” Feeling anxious, he grabbed her hand and tightened his grip.
“Why are you pulling and pushing around? People might gossip. Let go!” She struggled to

“No one’s around. It’s just us,” he whispered, breathing heavily and looking at her.
Pulling her into a hug, he confessed, “I’m an opportunist. I won’t miss a chance. If there
isn’t one, I’ll create

hot. There was a
carnal look in his eyes.
“Lyse, you have… a great body,” he murmured, turning his face aside and whispering into
her ear. Every
word sent shivers down her spine. She was enveloped by his warmth.
“You-You-” Glaring at him, she pushed him away and slapped him across the face.
Her voice was laced with anger as she berated him, “You filthy pervert! You’re asking for
it!”
Her slap was nothing but a minor scratch for him. Rather than anger, he felt thirsty and
dazed, like he had
too much to drink.
