Chapter 117

A few steps away, Landon and Alyssa walked in Jasper’s direction. A tall and handsome

man with a cold beauty by his side, they were a match made in heaven.

Jasper felt his eyes twitching in rage. He also noticed the shopping bag in Landon’s hand.

Did the two shop together?

However, Alyssa didn’t see Jasper and Liana because she was too engrossed in Landon,

who was telling a joke animatedly. She looked into Landon’s eyes, and they both chuckled.

Jasper felt a weight on his chest. The sight pained his eyes.

Landon sensed an air of hostility and looked up. His eyes widened in shock. “Jasper! Why

are you here?”

Alyssa finally noticed Jasper and his sour face. Her gaze swept past Liana, who was in his

arms, and a smirk appeared across her face.

Knowing it was her chance, Liana held Jasper tighter and glared at Alyssa to claim him.

Alyssa was unbothered by the action. In the past, she might have been envious of Liana,

but she felt nothing but calm at the moment.

To her, Jasper and Liana were a bastard and a bitch who deserved each other.

“I should be asking you that, Landon Harper,” Jasper growled.

“I’m shopping. You know me best. Shopping is my hobby.” Landon put on a wide smile, not

knowing that he was in trouble.

Alyssa wholeheartedly agreed with Landon’s answer. She had never seen a man more

passionate about shopping than Landon.

Although he was always chatting with her, his eyes kept darting to the store window. He

would

have shopped in every store if she weren’t in a hurry.

However, Landon’s honesty sounded like a challenge to Jasper.

“I never knew that Ms. White was close to Mr. Harper in private. They even came on a

shopping date.” Liana leaned against Jasper’s chest. “Jasper, let’s go home. Let’s not be

the third wheel and ruin their date.”

Alyssa glanced at her with indifference. On the other hand, Landon’s mind wandered when

Liana described his outing as a date. 1

“Hey, Jasper!” Liana called out to him, but he did not turn back. Her eyes blazed.

Alyssa stared up into his sharp eyes. He was taller than her, even when she was in heels.

She felt overwhelmed under his gaze.

“What is this?” He confronted her.

“We’re just shopping. What’s wrong?” She snickered dispassionately. “I know we don’t see

eye–to- eye, but

you can’t seriously blame us for bumping into you here.”

“You said you were shopping with him?” He enunciated the last word in his sentence as he

scowled at her.

“And what’s wrong with that? It’s not like I’m a wolf.” Landon clicked his tongue.

Jasper clenched his jaw. “Who knows whether you’re a wolf when you are undressed?”

“What the fuck?” Landon’s brows snapped together ferociously when he heard the remark.

“Jasper Beckett, it’s my freedom to shop with whoever I like. Why would you pick at me

after the divorce? You’re only being ridiculous.” Alyssa ignored the anger in Jasper’s eyes.

She wondered if he was angry and jealous of her and Landon. She ruled out the possibility

on second thought because Jasper had never loved her

“How could you hang out and shop with my friend before we go through the divorce

proceedings? What would people think of the Beckett Group and the Harper Group? Is this

your plan to stir trouble again?”

Jasper had a crazy look in his eyes as his chest tightened. Meanwhile, Landon secretly

grumbled,

You sly thing. Are you using me to get out of this fight when you’re stuck?”

“Hah.” Alyssa merely took Jasper’s criticism as an unfunny joke. “No one knew I was your

wife outside of the Beckett Family.”

Jasper’s eyes widened as his emotions simmered.

“Have you once publicly introduced me in the three years we were married? Have you

introduced

me to your friends? You didn’t even plan a wedding for us.”

Alyssa beamed widely as if to taunt him. “Don’t worry about it. Even if you plaster my face

on the screen outside the mall, no one will recognize me as Alice White, your ex–wife.

“As for the reputational damage to you and Landon, I assure you that you’re overthinking

it. Let’s live separate lives. If we run into each other, we should just act like strangers.

“After all, an ex is as good as dead; best if she doesn’t make a sound at all.”

With that, she brushed shoulders with him and left the scene.

It took Landon a split second to think before he decided to leave his friend behind and go

after his

crush.

Jasper inhaled sharply in a long face as he stared at Landon. The veins on the back of his

hands.

were popping.

Somehow, he felt as though Landon had heartlessly stolen his partner. Good friends
