Chapter 1262
When they realized someone had entered, the four men turned their attention toward the entrance.
Their eyes twinkled, and their souls almost left their bodies when they saw Alyssa.
Was tonight their lucky night?
Despite the thunderstorm outside, a stunning woman had just walked right up to their door. Didn't this mean that they were about to get lucky?
"What brings you here, my lady?" asked one of the men as he sized her up crudely.
The way Alyssa looked at that moment was so enticing to them that they simply wanted to eat her up!
"Sorry to bother all of you." Alyssa panted as her body shivered from the cold. "Could I borrow one of your cell phones, please? I will compensate you tremendously."
One of them chuckled. "Compensate us tremendously? How do you plan to compensate us, miss?"
The four men licked their lips. They approached Alyssa with lewd smiles on their faces.
They said with a snigger, "How about if you let us feel you, kiss you, and get it on? You can also smack us all you want!"
Alyssa's gaze was as cold as ice, and a ball of anger rose within her instantly.
Alyssa had already suffocated enough that day, and feeling half-dead from all the walking, who would have expected that she would bump into four jerks like that!
One of the men couldn't refrain himself anymore. He reached out with his perverted hands toward her full bosoms.
To his surprise, Alyssa reacted speedily. She grabbed his arm and twisted it to the back!
Immediately after, she kicked him behind his knee, forcing him to fall to his knees in front of her. The man yelled in pain, "Ah! It hurts! It fucking hurts!"
"Didn't you want to get smacked? I'm up for it!"
A crack sounded, and Alyssa had broken the man's arm. Her glistening pupils narrowed as she shouted back, "I will make sure that you're all done for!"
This time, Newton ended up in the hospital because of a stroke due to his chronic illness. It was fortunate that Ben had found him in time. That was why he didn't end up in a critical situation.
Due to the matter with Alyssa, Newton had been losing sleep, and he hadn't had much appetite these few days. He looked haggard and downcast.
The incident happened so suddenly. Plus, Javier wasn't in Solana City. So, the ones who stayed by Newton's side were only Jasper and Ben.
Jasper held a bowl in his hand. He scooped up some of the chicken soup and blew on it. Then, he held out the spoon to Newton's mouth.
Newton had no appetite at all. He noticed Jasper's bruised face and dejectedness and already had a rough guess of what had gone down.
Although his heart ached for Jasper, he maintained a frigid tone." How the hell did you end up like this? You went to see Alyssa?"
Jasper felt a lump in his throat. "Yeah."
"Her brothers beat you up?"
Jasper pursed his thin lips. He couldn't bring himself to answer.
Newton understood Jasper. At a glance, he could already tell what was on his mind. His eye twitched.
"Don't tell me that you were hit by your ex-father-in-law?"
Jasper stayed silent. His silence was a confirmation to Newton.
"That serves you right! I would have broken both your legs if I were Winston! You should be grateful that he had shown you mercy, allowing you to return in one piece!" Newton exclaimed. He was not on Jasper's side this time.
"Grandpa..." Jasper looked up slowly. Through his thin lips, he
mumbled bitterly, "Please tell me what I should do... What do I do to have Lyse back by my side?"
Newton shook his head helplessly. "You aren't the only one who had wronged Alyssa, my dear. Even I don't know how to face her in the future.
"She is such a good kid. If she hadn't married into our family, she could have had a liberating and carefree life. We are the ones who ruined her life."
A deafening silence fell upon the hospital ward.
"If there's no other way, then just stop thinking of one. You'll just have to make it up to her slowly with your sincerity."
Newton rested his wrinkly hand on Jasper's shoulder. In a heavy tone, he continued, "From now on, Jasper, stop thinking about how you can get her back. What you need to think of is how you will watch over her."
Jasper lowered his head in sorrow. He tried hard to hold his tears back.
"I don't want to let go, Grandpa. But I know that I am really not good enough for her."
Right as he said that, his cell phone began vibrating in his chest pocket.
