Chapter 611
QUITE
Jonah checked his wristwatch, his expression turning icy. He began, “Jameson, I know Lyse
very well. She has never spent the night at a man’s place in her life.
“Yet, she was at your place last night. I need an explanation.”
“You never allowed her to stay out, but you supported her when she decided to elope. For
three years, you kept her marriage to that jerk/a secret from Uncle Winston.
“You let her suffer at her in-laws’ place, living without any official recognition, Jameson
stated calmly,
taking a seat across from Jonah.
Jonah’s breath briefly stopped. Lips downturned, he taunted, “Oh, is that what you’re
doing? You’re
comparing apples to oranges. Lyse willingly married Jasper out of love.
“As her brother, I might not agree with her decision, but I had to respect it. You, on the
other hand, are a
different case.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJameson’s eyes wavered as he started to falter.
Jonah continued, “I know Lyse isn’t into you. If you persist, you’ll not only anger her but
also change my impression of you.” His eyes carried a threatening glint.
Jameson adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses with a faint smile. But in truth, he was
swallowing hard and
holding in his rage.
He explained, “I invited Lyse for dinner last night, as my mom and I loved meeting her. We
had a good
time at dinner.
“Later, Jasper called Lyse, said something that upset her, and she fainted.” The thought of
yesterday’s
Incident infuriated Jameson once more.
While listening, Jonah furrowed his brows. Even if Jameson might not be lying. Jonah was
wary of his
claims.
“Even so, you let Lyse stay at your place without informing us. You’ve crossed a line.
“As her eldest brother, I’m almost like a father figure to her. She’s precious to my dad and
me. Lyse might not care about last night’s incident, but I’m blacklisting you because of it.”
Jonah rose with an air of authority, heading toward the entrance hallway. He added,
“Jameson, you may be interested in Lyse. Our dads are good friends, but I speak for my
dad now.

“We approve of your friendship with Lyse, but not a romantic relationship! Don’t ever
dream of marrying
her.”
Jonah’s words were polite, but it was a humiliating rejection of any romantic relationship
between Lyse and Jameson, even if Jameson wanted to be a matrilocal son-in-law.
As Jonah was about to leave, Jameson declared, “Mr. Jonah, Lyse will marry me one day. Do
attend our
wedding.
“That would indeed be a dream wedding-it will only be in your dreams!” Jonah quipped
and snorted

When the door slammed shut, Jameson’s expression froze. He hissed, ‘I don’t need your
approval to do
anything! That’s absurd.”
His phone rang with a call from Carl. “Mr. Schmidt, I have two updates for you. First, Zoe
Harper will
return to Cyrris soon.”
Jameson smirked. “And the second update?”
It’s regarding Jasper Beckett’s health, which you wanted me to investigate. I don’t have all
the details, but I do know he was hospitalized at Solana City Memorial Hospital last month
for a severe injury. He was discharged after two days.”
“That’s enough. I don’t need every detail. The fact that he’s gravely injured is all I need to
know,” Jameson
said, raising an eyebrow
“Mr. Schmidt, what’s your next step?” Carl inquired cautiously.
“I want him dead,” Jameson drawled with a menacing look.
“Sigh. Too bad we aren’t in Kontina. If we were, you could have gotten rid of him earlier
on,” lamented Carl.
“It doesn’t matter. He’ll die by my hands eventually. I can wait.”
