Chapter 273

Jameson smiled and sipped his tea with poise and grace, like a noble gentleman from a regency novel. He chatted with Alyss a for a bit.

From their conversation, she learned that he had been caring for his mother in Kontina. Due to Alzheimer's, Lily Schmidt was unable to take care of herself anymore. Despite multiple opportunities to return to Solana City, Jameson chose to stay in Kontina and build his career there.

Alyss a recalled that Jameson came from a rather complicated family. There were four Schmidt siblings in total, with Jameson being the youngest. His two brothers and a sister were the offspring of the first wife, while Jameson was born to the second wife of the Schmidt Family.

She knew little about Lily, who was once a close family friend. She even paid a visit to

the Schmidts'manor, but Lily left no impression on her at all.

"So, why did you come home this year?" asked Alyssa.

"I'm coming back to where I belong. Afterall, I'm the son of the Schmidt family. I want to take what I am entitled to."He lowered his gaze and toyed with the teacup.

She nodded in understanding. An offspring of a wealthy family who was not in the center of power would be chewed up and spat out. A harmonious family like the Taylors was a rarity.

"We have some time until dinner. Whatshould we do?"

His question caught her off guard."Huh?"

"I'll bring you to see some roses in thesunset."He leaned toward her with an earnest gaze."I have a private rose garden that is open to the public for today. Let's enjoy some roses."

Roses? Her eyes sparkled when she thought of her favorite flower. She had a rose garden in the backyard of Heightsnew Villa as well. Mandy and the others took turns caring for the garden when she was not around.

Without thinking, she agreed to it."Sure! Let's go!"

Alyssa took Jameson's Bentley to his private rose garden. It would be an unnecessary fuss to meet each other at the destination, given that they were old family friends.

The Bentley cruised down the street. Sean tailed the car as he gripped the steering wheel tightly. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After seeing Jasper Beckett off, he had to rise to a new challenge-Jameson Schmidt, who appeared more strategic than Jasper.

Last time, Jameson had stalked Alyssa to her neighborhood. Now, he made good use of his connections to swap out Alyssa's original date just to meet with her. He seemed well-prepared and calculative. Breathing heavily, Sean stared squarely at the back of the Bentley. He would never allow Alyssa to be hurt by another man after her history with Jasper. He vowed to give his best to protect her. Meanwhile, Jameson and Alyss a were having a good time in the Bentley. She took off her guise and revealed her bare face because she did not bring any makeup. Her long, dark hair was pinned up. She was not overly fussy about her image as the daughter of the Taylor family.

Jameson stole glances at her from the corner of his eye. Like a petal at dawn, she was perfection, carrying herself in a dignified and graceful manner.

Struggling to collect himself, he asked,"

Did you remember what you called me when we met that night?"

"Hm?"Taken by surprise, she blinked."I...don't."

"You called me a little bastard."

He always had a way to render her speechless or embarrass her.

"My dad liked to call me a little bastardwhen he scolded me. You would poke fun at me by mimicking him sometimes."

"Uh, kids don't know better. I apologizefor my vulgar behavior in the past." Her cheeks blushed in shame.

"It's fine. You can still call me that." Heflashed her a forgiving smile.

"I'd have to be dumb or thick-skinned todo so,"she grumbled in a hushed voice, attempting to wave it away.

She continued, "I'll go with Jameson. We're not kids anymore. You are an established businessman now. I need to

show you some respect."

He narrowed his eyes and leaned closer to her. His voice was crystal clear and velvety."Whatever makes you happy."
