Sean felt anxious upon hearing the threat. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
He explained, “I’m worried about Ms. Alyssa. When I was in a coma, I repeatedly dreamed of the
incident from that night. May I visit her?”
“She’s fine now. The cut on her arm has healed. She doesn’t have any other injuries, but she needs
time to recover emotionally. She needs to be alone for a while,” Axel replied, sighing.
Upon being reminded of Alyssa’s injury, Jasper felt overwhelmed by bitterness. In the year after their
divorce, she had always gotten injured and never enjoyed much peace in her life.
He blamed himself for being useless. Regardless of his willingness to sacrifice everything for her, he
had repeatedly failed to protect
“I heard about Nina,” Sean muttered, his heart breaking at the memor of the young lady who had taken

He inquired, “Has anyone tracked down that bastard yet?”
“It’s only a matter of time. I’m monitoring Sophia and Betty’s movements. Sophia just left home tonight,
and she’ll likely meet Jeffrey Snyder. “My men might come back with updates soon,” Jasper informed
Sean with a dangerous gleam in his eyes.
He added, “Don’t worry. I want that guy dead more than anyone else. I’ve looked into his background.
He’s claimed more lives than Nina’s.
He’s a devil.

Axel continued jeering, “I’ll have to thank Madam Sophia when I meet. her in person.”
Jasper was perplexed. “Thank her? Why?”
“I’ll have to thank her for not killing Lyse in the three years she lived at your place.”
Once again, Axel’s sharp tongue left Jasper speechless. In school, Axel had been even more reserved
and withdrawn than him. It
seemed Axel had hidden his true nature well.
Alyssa’s door suddenly swung open, startling the three men. She changed into a black pantsuit and

“Ms. Alyssa!”
Jasper’s heart raced, and his ears reddened as he gazed at Alyssa. He had wanted to call her name
but hesitated.
He’d had a good reason to approach her that night due to the urgency of the situation, but he didn’t
have any justification to approach her at
this moment.
“Sean, are you okay?” Alyssa choked up when she saw Sean’s left arm.
“I’m perfectly fine, Ms. Alyssa.” Sean had wanted to lift his arm to show he was fine, but he failed.
He offered an awkward smile. “Don’t worry! I’ll be back to work as usual once I’ve fully recovered.”
“When you recover, quit working as my secretary.”
