Chapter 434
Betty’s words attracted some curious passersby, most in awe at how much Betty was insinuating in those
few words.
Firstly, she asserted that KS World Hotel was responsible for this mistake, thus making Ada the victim.
Secondly, she claimed that Alyssa had yet to resolve the aftermath of said mistake and was using MINT’s
charity auction to tide things over.
Thirdly, she accused Alyssa of being an irresponsible general manager unsuitable for her role. She
claimed that Alyssa couldn’t meet customers’ needs and couldn’t maintain confidentiality.
That meant Ada’s choice to go with Berenike Hotel was affirming that they were far better than KS World
in all these aspects.
The reporters erupted into yet another flurry of questions like fish that had been tossed bait.
Alyssa had anticipated that Betty would do this already, attacking her and the hotel’s reputation on such an important evening.
She looked at Sophia and Betty’s extravagant makeup, feeling that the two of them resembled clowns at
this moment.
Just then, Ada Kingsley walked into the venue with Yves Vanderbilt from MINT, dazzling all who had eyes on them.
Yves glanced at Alyssa from behind her shades before nudging Ada with her elbow. “I think you should reconsider working with
Alyssa Taylor.”
“Why?” Ada asked.
“Because her brother is an intelligent, powerful, and devastatingly handsome man. I’m not bluffing at all. Jonah Taylor is the
hottest man I have ever met in my life.” Yves’ eyes glowed when she said that.
Then, she added, “He’s the love of my life.”
“I don’t see how that’s related to why I should work together with Alyssa Taylor again.”
Yves scowled, then prodded her friend again, this time gently saying, “Come on, can’t you give my ‘sister-in -law’ a chance, for
my sake?”
Ada was left speechless. She wondered if this was considered moral blackmailing.
Meanwhile, Jasper was on the second-floor landing, quietly watching the event unfold as he leaned
His gaze finally fell back on Alyssa. He watched her calmly answer all the reporters’ questions. A smile
graced his face. He knew she wouldn’t give up so easily.
Alyssa was the sort of individual whose resolve to fight grew stronger with each challenge she
encountered.
“Mr. Jasper, those mutts who call themselves reporters are bound to tarnish Madam’s reputation if we
don’t do something!” Xavier exclaimed, glancing worriedly downstairs. “Can we, please?”
“No.” Jasper shook his head. “I can’t come to her defense even if her reputation is actually in danger. I am
a Beckett.
“Standing out now will only complicate things further. I’m sure she already has plans on what to do next.”
Xavier nodded solemnly, choosing to trust in Alyssa. It was best not to get in her way.
More importantly, he didn’t want Jasper to worsen his standing with her, which was likely to occur if he
intervened at this moment.
“Xavier, I need you to get two things done right away,” Jasper suddenly said, his tone dead serious.
“Yes, sir!”
