"Aren't you curious what I told Jameson after barging into his plane?" Alyssa resisted the entire day
and eventually decided to ask.
Jasper smiled lightly. "Why? Are you afraid I would be jealous?"
"Pfft! If you would get jealous of someone like him, you are basically questioning my character." Alyssa
poked his chest hard with her fingertip.
"Before this, I was really jealous when I saw both of you together." Jasper's eyes reddened slightly. He
lifted her hand and planted a warm kiss on her palm.
"I know. It was so obvious. I'm not blind."
Alyssa pouted as a light sense of uneasiness appeared on her face. "At that time, you and I just
divorced, so I had accumulated so much anger at you. I was overjoyed when I saw you getting angry.
"I thought I was different from other women. Divorce wasn't a big deal. I thought I could let it go as
easily as getting divorced. Then, I finally understood the joy I felt seeing you angry didn't stem from the
satisfaction of getting revenge—it was the feeling that you still cared."

It was impossible to let it go that easily.
Jasper's breath slowed down. An endless sense of sadness rushed through his veins. His chest was
churning as his mind was racing.
The sentence "Let's get married again" had been brewing in his heart for so long. He even dreamt of
the day he would say it. However, at this moment, he forced it back down his throat once again.
Was he worthy?
Was he worthy of being her husband again?
"I've... always cared for you," Jasper murmured shakily. He choked so much that he couldn't utter the
last word.
Alyssa felt she had touched a sore spot, so she changed the subject. "Actually, I didn't say much to
Jameson. I just. vented my anger."
"It's good to vent it out."
"I really don't understand his life in Kontina for the past 15 years. What could he possibly experience, or
who did he meet that had caused his heart to harden to this point?"
An image of Jameson laughing maniacally appeared in Alyssa's mind. She shook her head. "He was
never like this. I still remember the time we snuck out to play when we were younger and saw a snake
in the woods.
"He was more terrified than I was but still courageously stood before the snake. He shivered all over
and scared the snake away. There are still many instances... He was a pretty good person growing up."
"I've looked into his background. I'm afraid his mother has a lot to do with his animosity toward the
Schmidt Group."
Jasper hugged Alyssa's shoulders and said, "Mrs. Schmidt's position in the Schmidt Group had never
been favorable. Three of the children were not hers. She had to be careful, being a stepmother
constantly walking on thin ice.
"At that time, Jameson was young. Plus, you know how he was. He was too weak and unable to
protect his mother.

"Mrs. Schmidt was an honest and uncompetitive woman, so she and Jameson were often ostracized."
Alyssa nodded slowly.
She was no stranger to the situation with the Schmidt Group. She heard a lot of gossip from Winston
and his wives.
"I also heard Victor despised Mrs. Schmidt because she had an affair with Victor's bodyguard."
Alyssa was unbelievably shocked. "Ah, how is that possible? I met Mrs. Schmidt when I was younger.
She is so pleasant and gentle and is genuine toward Mr. Schmidt. How could she have an affair with a
bodyguard?"
"Yes, so there is something fishy about this."
Jasper frowned slightly. "Mr. Schmidt must still kept in the dark about this. However, the three Schmidt
siblings must have had a hand in this.
"That bodyguard who was involved with Mrs. Schmidt is currently overseas under Josh's surveillance.
Don't you think this is weird?"
