Chapter 964
Sean was still in the hospital, so Xavier came to pick them up.
Both of them sat in the back. Jasper took a deep breath. He reached out and held Alyssa’s cold hand.
She didn’t avoid it and let him hold her hand. She even let him intertwine his fingers with hers, feeling
his warmth.
“Landon said he wanted to come, but I didn’t let him,” Jasper said softly.
“Okay, I understand why you did it. Landon is with Lauren now. He – worried Lauren would feel sad if
she saw what happened to Nina.”
Alyssa sighed. “After all, Nina had cared for Lauren for a long time. They were more than a servant and
a master. They were friends.”
Her voice dropped as she spoke. She choked on her words slightly.
“Don’t cry, Lyse.”

Jasper’s heart ached intensely, feeling as if twitched slightly, lifting his arm to wrap it around Alyssa’s

“I’m sure she wants to see the beautiful, sassy, and tough Ms. Taylor. Don’t let her down, and don’t let
the murderer see how vulnerable we
are.”
Alyssa nestled her head against his chest, feeling a sense of rejuvenation coursing through her body.
She nodded firmly.
The Taylors meticulously arranged Nina’s funeral, providing the best

“Jameson is such a calculative man.”
Silas was standing by the entrance. He mocked when he saw the Schmidt family’s wreath. “People
might think that the deceased was someone from the Schmidts. The wreath is so big that you can see
it from Mars. Get someone here to bring it to the back. The wreath is blocking ours.”
Jonah patted his shoulder and shook his head. “It’s okay. Even if it was given because of other
intentions, it’s the thought that counts. Don’t make the Taylors look so petty as if we can’t let others

Jonah, Silas, Cyrus, and Axel were present today. Sean even came in his wheelchair with Tatiana
helping to push him.
When Tatiana learned that Sean had gotten hurt, she went to the hospital and bawled her eyes out.
She requested a leave of absence from the school and has never left Sean’s side since. She cared for
him, fed him food, cleaned his body, and supported him when he needed to use the toilet. She was
practically Mrs. Lynch by now.
Sean was recovering well under Tatjana’s care. He would either walk around with a crutch or move in a

“Sean, why are you here?” Jonah went to him hastily. “You need to

Sadness lingered in Sean’s eyes. “Ms. Nina saved Ms. Taylor’s life. She meant a lot to me. How can I
be absent from her funeral? I would crawl my way here if I had to.”
Silas came to him, too. He looked at Tatiana angrily. “Tatiana, why did you let your Mr. Lynch roam
around like that?”
Sean and Tatiana’s faces reddened in embarrassment upon hearing
that.
Tatiana couldn’t take such teasing. Her face was as red as a tomato. She said softly, “I-I couldn’t stop
him.”
“Sigh, how can this do?”
Axel shook his head as he walked over and joined in the teasing. “You are a Taylor. It didn’t matter
whether it was the situation or a man. You need to hold them tightly and have control over them. Am I
right, Mr. Sean?”
Sean coughed dryly from embarrassment. He answered honestly, You are right, Mr. Axel.”
Just then, they heard someone shouting, “Ms. Alyssa is here!”
Following that, someone exclaimed, “Mr. Jasper Beckett, the president of the Beckett Group, is here!”
