Chapter 406
The grating sound of the car tires against the parking lot ground echoed in the space. Sean watched as Alyssa drifted the Bugatti
and parked it nicely into her parking spot.
He wore a proud grin on his lips.
Alyssa left her car, looking damp from the bath and seething in anger. She hissed, “Which room is that
scoundrel in?”
“He’s in the presidential suite on the hotel’s top floor,” answered a worried Sean.
He lowered his voice and continued, “They just entered their suite. There’s only one presidential suite on the top floor, so no
other guests would be disturbed even if there’s a commotion.”
“Got it.”
A few minutes later, Alyssa arrived at the door of the presidential suite in her stilettos, a bundle of
murderous rage.
Sean followed closely behind her. Judging by her demeanor, it seemed as though she was here to confront a cheating couple
rather than rescue a young lady who had made a poor choice.
“Swipe the room card.”
“Of course, Ms. Alyssa,” Sean acknowledged as he unlocked the door with the master card. Without further hesitation, she
forcefully kicked the door open, almost leaving a hole in it.
“Landon Harper! Get your ass out here!” Alyssa’s voice boomed.
Hearing that, Landon wandered out with damp hair, water still dripping from his front bangs. He was
shirtless and showing off his toned body. He wore nothing except for a loosely tied towel on his waist.
Seeing that, Sean took a deep breath, worrying that the towel might unravel at any time and accidentally
flashing Alyssa. He couldn’t help but, think that Landon had the potential to be a gigolo with that seductive
“Lyse? It’s really you!” Landon confirmed that it was Alyssa after checking out with his own eyes.
He had been unsure when he first heard her voice. His eyes glimmered in excitement. “Gosh, why didn’t
you let me know before you visit? I’d have thrown a shirt on.”
He then put on a devilish grin and added, “Though I look better without anything on.”
Alyssa laughed at the absurdity of the situation as she slowly went up to him. Then, he saw three flashes
Alyssa had moved with lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, he found himself on the receiving end of three stinging slaps
across his handsome face.
He stared blankly at her, lips quivering from anger and disgruntlement. He mumbled, “L-Lyse, you hit me
How could you ...”
His cheeks were swollen and numb. Behind her, Sean was stunned by the situation, but he was more concerned about the pain
in her hand after slapping Landon.
“I don’t need good timing to slap you!” Feeling the anger rising in her chest, she clutched her pained and numb palm. “Didn’t I tell
you that Lauren is my beloved little sister, even though we’re unrelated?
“Don’t you have enough women to play with? Why did you lay a finger on her? Does it excite you, knowing
that she’s your friend’s sister?”
“No, it’s not like that. Lyse, hear me out!” Landon’s throat was dry from nervousness, but she didn’t give
him a chance to catch his breath.
She hissed, ‘Landon, I was wrong about you. You’re filthy!”
i
Her remark cut deep, leaving him feeling immensely hurt and indignant. Tears welled up in his eyes.
“Landon, what have you done to Lauren?” They heard a wintry voice cutting through the air at that
pressing moment.
Alyssa turned around and saw Jasper strode into the room after his urgent trip.
Soon, he stood beside her, casting a glance her way.
She furrowed her brow, examining him closely. Why was he covered in dirt and dust? Had he just returned
from grave digging or coal mining?
*Jasper, she slapped me thrice and called me filthy!” Landon sounded even more pitiable and wronged
with his friend’s arrival.
He wore a forlorn expression as if he had found his savior after being bullied. “I’m unfairly blamed! Why don’t you rein her in?”
Jasper gave the angry Alyssa a deep look and remarked, “I can never control her.”
