Jasper chuckled naughtily and asked, “Your hips won’t hurt if we get a room?”
Shy, Alyssa lightly punched his chest.
“Lyse, about the party on the weekend, almost all of Solana City’s reputable families will be there.”
Jasper had a sincere and serious look on his face. “I am thinking of making a public announcement then... that I am seeing you.
Would that be alright?”
Alyssa’s dazzling eyes widened slightly. She stared into his eyes without saying a word for quite a while.
He thought that she was unhappy with the idea. He held her hand tight and continued, “Actually, more than that, I want to
propose to you. But, I’m afraid that you aren’t ready yet, and more so that it will be too rushed. I don’t want to make things
difficult for you.”
“Why are you choosing that day in particular?”

Simon walked toward him. He clicked his tongue as he shook his
head and said, “Why? Are you about to lose the treasure that you’ve obtained?”
Sean disregarded Simon’s ridicule toward him. He scoffed coldly and replied, “I was just wondering who was speaking. It turns
out that it’s the Beckett family’s pet dog.”
“I am their pet dog, but I’m just living by the seat of my pants. I’ve got nothing to be ashamed about.”
Simon was a thick-skinned man. He continued to mock Sean, “At least I’m better than a bootlicker like you who relies on your
woman. to get ahead.
“I guess it’s different for you, being a secretary. You can be flexible. Since you weren’t able to seduce Ms. Alyssa, you’ve gone

“Sean! You’re hitting your brother just because of that bitch? Are you trying to infuriate me?” Sinead reprimanded him in a
devastated. voice. Her heart began to hurt again.
Sean glared at her. His eyes were red. He shouted, “Mom, Tatiana is the woman I love the most. Don’t insult her with such a
term!”
Sinead was shocked, and her heart ached. Her youngest son had always been the kindest and the most caring of them all.
