Alyssa coldly observed Jameson’s fake act as she clutched her fists.
Winston cast an affectionate gaze at Jameson and said warmly,” Attaboy. I know your feelings. Don’t
worry. You’ll have many more opportunities to spend time with Lyse.”
The onlookers gasped at Winston’s response as the cameras captured the interaction. As a legendary
businessman who was at the top of his field, Winston had never shown such affinity with men younger
than him. He clearly approved of Jameson as his future son- in-law candidate.
Someone mumbled softly, “Why do I have a feeling that… Mr. Taylor intended to matchmake Mr.
Jameson and Ms. Alyssa?”
“It appears like that to me as well. He’s always cold to Mr. Beckett but friendly with Mr. Jameson. It’s a
clear sign, isn’t it?
“Besides, everyone in business knows that Victor Schmidt and Winston Taylor are good friends. Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTaylor spoilt his stubborn daughter. He wouldn’t have approved of her marriage to Mr. Beckett
otherwise. Instead, he would have married her off to Mr. Jameson.”
“But Ms. Alyssa’s heart seems set on Jasper Beckett. They even walked the red carpet like they’re
getting back together.”
“Pfft. What good is that? Women from esteemed families have no say in their choice of husband. Mr.
Taylor might have given her freedom once, but he would never allow it again.”
“An arranged marriage between the Taylors and the Schmidts will be big news. That will certainly shift
the dynamics of the business world in Solana City.

Alyssa ‘couldn’t bear listening to the gossip around her and hurried away with a heavy expression.
Jameson rushed after her with concern. “Lyse, what’s wrong? Are you still angry over what Zoe did?”
She maintained her stride in silence. He persisted. “Lyse, I have many ways to cheer you up if you’re
still upset. I’ll do anything for you as long as it makes you happy.”
Halting in her tracks, she questioned, “Do you have evidence of Zoe framing me?”
“No. I played tricks on her because I knew she would crumble under the guilt,” Jameson admitted
openly with a chuckle.
“From my understanding of Zoe Harper, she is more resilient and shameless than Betty Beckett. Do
you think she’ll cower under your threat when she has the backing of Mr. Cornelius and Landon?” She
stared at him with doubt. “Or did she back off purely out of
consideration of your relationship with her?”
Alyssa’s words were full of sarcasm, but it played into Jameson’s plan. Adjusting his glasses, he
concealed the sly glint in his eyes, explaining, “Lyse, I have no relationship with any woman except for
you.”
“Oh, quit it. I have a lover. No matter how interested you are in me, I will not feel the same for you.” Her
harsh reply was akin to a blade that pierced through his heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFeeling bitter, he began, “Lyse, I-”
“I do not wish to take away your right to a healthy relationship,” she said with a smirk and called him
out. “Don’t waste your effort. You can suck up to my father as much as you’d like, but I’d never leave.
Jasper for you.”

On the other hand, Jasper had been working closely and discreetly with Xavier to launch their next
move.
When he heard that Zoe had nearly tainted Alyssa’s reputation, he rushed to the scene at lightning
speed, but it was too late.
The guests and the reporters had left. He and Xavier stood blankly at the scene.
Xavier reported, “Mr. Beckett, I just checked the trending topics. Zoe apologized to Madam and is now
being attacked by the netizens. Everyone is speaking up for Madam.”
