Chapter 776
Why did Alyssa want to talk to Sophia about that? Did she find out something? Did that man betray
Sophia?
That was impossible!
Alyssa must be trying to deceive her.
“Ms. Alyssa, you should find another time to talk. Perhaps tomorrow?”
Sensing the weird atmosphere, Javier hurriedly stepped forward in an attempt to drive Alyssa away.
“As
you can see, we have guests at home now, so it’s not quite the right time.”
Alyssa’s initially smiling eyes abruptly grew cold. Just as she was about to speak, Jasper unexpectedly
grabbed her wrist and led her upstairs before everyone.
His grip was so strong that she couldn’t break free.
“What are you doing. Jasper? Let go!” Alyssa’s cheeks flushed, and she tried hard to break free, but it

Once Jasper made up his mind, nothing could stop him.
“Oh my!” Rosie covered her mouth, full of excitement. In her thoughts, she considered Jasper to be
exceedingly domineering but found Alyssa to be remarkably adorable.
*Jasper! Jasper, where are you going? Come back!”
No matter how much Javier shouted, Jasper didn’t even turn around. Soon, he led Alyssa away and
disappeared from the hall.
The Harpers were left stranded in place. Since the male lead had left, they didn’t know how to continue
the play. Instantly, the scene became awkward.
Zoe, in particular, glared with intense hatred, her eyes reddening.
Whenever Alyssa appeared, no matter where or who was around, she would immediately become the
center of attention. She was the only female lead.
At this moment, Zoe suddenly understood something.
Her hatred for Alyssa might not only be because she was the woman Jasper loved and her love rival
What she hated and envied even more was the charm radiating from Alyssa and the pride that no one
In Zoe’s world, there could only be one sun-herself. How could she tolerate someone shining brighter
than her and overshadowing her?
“Dad, Mom, I’m back.” Betty rushed over, panting.
Since she was meeting people, she deliberately changed into a decent new outfit. But she had a sleepy
look, with dark circles under her eyes.
Her body reeked of alcohol, and her pale face had overly red lips, making her look like a ghost who had
just eaten a child.
Seeing her daughter in such a state, Sophia felt so embarrassed that she wanted to flush Betty down
the
toilet. What a shame!
“Betty, where did you go? Why do you reek of alcohol?” Javier frowned, scrutinizing her.

“Someone, help Ms. Betty upstairs to rest!” Sophia quickly gave the order.
“Oh my! Zoe!”
Being intoxicated, Betty ran directly to Zoe, looking at her with a smiling face. “Congratulations! You’re
about to marry Jasper and become my sister-in-law!
“After all the scheming, driving away Liana, and getting rid of Alyssa, you’re finally marrying him.
Hahaha!”
Cornelius’s frown tightened.
Meanwhile, Penelope’s and Zoe’s faces turned pale and stiff.
“Betty, what do you mean by that? Are you mocking me, or are you playing drunk?”
Zoe was already angry. After being provoked by Betty, she blurted out, “I know what you’re thinking.
You
want to marry Landon. You asked me to help match you two, but I didn’t. So you resent me.”
