Chapter 281

Alyssa stated, "You could get plastic surgery or change your name, but you'll never cover up your past no matter how hard you try.

"The clues will show up if we look closer. Ichoose to keep my silence, not because I am nice. I couldn't be bothered because it's none of my business, that's all.

"If you try me again, don't blame me forairing your dirty laundry."

Liana felt her heart tighten. She was sickened by Alyssa's threat, as though she was sucked dry.

...

Alyssa and Jameson were gone when Jasper emerged from the rose garden. After the conversation with Jameson, Jasper stood alone like a statue in the chilly breeze for a while.

The night had fallen. Jasper arranged for Liana to be driven back to the hospital while he returned to Seaview Manor with Xavier.

During the trip, Xavier sweated profusely and apologized furiously to Jasper with a reddened face.

"Mr. Beckett, I'm so sorry! Punish me inany way you want! It's all my fault for not doing my research and failing to recognize Mr. Schmidt from our communications! It's all on me ..." Xavier started choking back tears. Jasper stirred from his shut-eye and opened his eyes. He ridiculed, "How old are you now? Why did you cry over nothing?"

"This is a big deal..."

"Jameson Schmidt and his people havenot been in the country for decades. It's not unusual to get nothing on them."

Jasper closed his eyes again and breathed

deeply."Even if you looked into the Schmidts, nothing would change. He would not work with us. So, call up a couple of similar rose gardens in the nation. We'll find a supplier somehow." "Got it!I will get to it tomorrow!"Xavierrubbed his eyes and let out a long sigh."Mr. Schmidt is pretty generous to Ms. Taylor. He handed the massive project to her without much discussion.

"Any businessman in their right mindwould have carefully considered a few proposals before making the decision."

Jasper was st ung by Xavier's remark. He asked in despair, "Xavier, was I a bad husband to Alyssa? Did I fail?" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Xavier was speechless. He might be an honest man, but he was not dumb. He was presented with a new challenge fresh after the heels of his blunder on the Schmidts. He felt burdened and anxious. "It's fine. Tell me the truth. I won't hold it

against you." Jasper read his mind.

"Um, Mr. Beckett. You treated ma dam ...fairly well. You provided her with an expensive lifestyle. You even showered her with luxury cars and black cards without complaints."

"Alyssa and I had a sham marriage because of Grandpa's wish. I gave her anything I could afford." Jasper pinched his nose bridge with a troubled expression.

"Technically, Ms. Taylor did not lose out ifher plan was to take her fair share from the contract marriage and leave when the three years were up."

Xavier suddenly put on a straight face and continued, Sadly, she was truly in love with you. She was attentive to you during the three years. She never complained about your cold shoulder and the bullying from your family.

"You were indeed cruel to a woman whosaw you as her husband. The money you

threw at Ms. Taylor was more likely a stinging humiliation for a woman who loved you with all her heart."

Upon hearing the phrase "a stinging humiliation, "Jasper swallowed hard. His chest became heavy with emotions.

He tried to take a breath and soothe the feeling. But he was almost crushed by the weight of it at the thought of Alyssa's genuine love for him.
