Jasper returned to his study and waited for Xavier. As he smoked by the window with a contemplative
look, Nina's words echoed in his mind, making his heart race.
Did that mean the maid had been secretly in touch with Alyssa? Why?
He mused, "Alyssa, what exactly do you plan to do? Why do you always make me worry?"
He answered when he heard a knock on the door. Taking another drag of his cigarette, he flicked the
cigarette ashes with his calloused fingers.
Xavier shuffled into the room, shut the door, and handed Jasper a note, explaining, "Mr. Beckett, this is
the address that Nina wanted to give you. She'll meet Ms. Alyssa here tonight."
Jasper felt his chest tighten, and even his fingers shook as he accepted the note. He cast a quick
glance at it, immediately memorizing the address.
Then, he questioned, "What else did Nina tell you?"
Xavier shook his head. "Mr. Beckett, I feel that she's spying on this family for Ms. Alyssa."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"She is a spy without a doubt," replied Jasper, clutching the note tightly.
Alyssa had always concocted plans under his nose and stirred up trouble.
Xavier wondered aloud, "What's Ms. Alyssa trying to do?"
His eyes lit up when a thought crossed his mind. He exclaimed, "Did she get a maid to spy on you
because she still has feelings for you? It looks like Ms. Alyssa still has a place for you in her heart.
That's good news!"
Jasper shot Xavier a gloomy stare while taking another puff helplessly.
He wasn't delusional. Alyssa hadn't placed a mole in the Beckett family because of her feelings for him.
She was a busy and ambitious career woman who had no time for that.
Only one possibility remained. She must have been worried about certain problems within the Beckett
family.
Jasper wondered if Alyssa was thinking of ways to avenge Lyla. If that was the case, all she had to do
was discreetly carry out the plan with Nina.
Why did Nina run to him and expose her plans with Alyssa?
Or was that a secret plea for help?
Eyes blazing, Jasper felt invigorated and needed. He had a strong urge to protect Alyssa.
Xavier asked with concern, "Mr. Beckett, do you want me to go with you?"
Sighing, Jasper shook his head. "No. Nina only wants me there, meaning they don't want the others to
learn about their plan."
Still concerned, Xavier said, "Does Ms. Alyssa know you'll be there? If it's only Nina's wish for you to be
there, will Ms. Alyssa be angry when she sees you?"
"If that's the case, I'll keep an eye on her from afar," Jasper replied.
His eyes filled with affection when he thought of Alyssa. He said, "She's always out creating trouble. I'm
worried about her."
At 9:00 pm, Becky left the house, all dressed up. Soon after she left, Nina, dressed in black and

After Nina was gone, a black sedan silently emerged from the shadows. The driver asked, "Ms. Betty,
do we tail her?"
Jeffrey Snyder was a trusted staff member who worked as a special assistant for Sophia. Since he had
served Sophia and Betty for many years, Sophia had ordered him to assist Betty's mission that night.
Betty replied, "No, we don't have to. We'll make her suffer for selling us out. If we tail her closely, we
might land in trouble if someone takes photos of us."
After years of living with and learning from Sophia, Betty had honed her skills in executing
unscrupulous plans.
"Alright. I'll wait for Madam Sophia's orders and take action when the time comes," said Jeffrey
unemotionally, just like a robot.
Betty asked, "What do you plan to do?"
