“Are you sure? Jasper asked solemnly.

“Well, sir. I phoned Ada’s manager myself. She was the one who said Ms. Taylor had

contacted them first. The manager actually intends for us to compete for the

opportunity… Xavier’s voice grew smaller as he continued, noticing how Jasper’s face was

growing more menacing by the second.

“What else did they say?”

“The manager also said that they know Berenike Hotel has always been famous and well–

known, but KS World Hotel’s been in the limelight lately, so they want us to prove to them

why they should pick us for the wedding. Our plans need to win them over before Ada

even considers working with us.”

Jasper slammed the table, feeling unbearably irritated.

Alice White was already annoying enough to deal with. And now Alyssa Taylor was here

trying to compete for their project? Were these women specifically sent to torment him?

“Arrange a meeting with all department heads and directors tomorrow. We need to come

up with a high–end wedding proposal to present to Ada Kingsley,” Jasper ordered. “If we

fail to secure this project and Alyssa Taylor wins it, then everyone involved in the proposal

will be dismissed!”

Xavier nodded and scheduled the meeting. It appeared his boss was exacting vengeance

for having to climb up those ten flights of stairs

last month!

After lunch, Jasper drove Liana over to meet the fashion designer she had mentioned

earlier.

“I thought we were meeting the designer?” he asked, confused as to why they were in

front of a lavishly decorated six–story building. The Victorian–style gate caught his

attention as it was stylized with elaborately carved roses.

“She’s right inside. This is the private design firm of the renowned designer, Rose

Emerson!” Liana squealed.

She continued, “Although her clothing brand, Rozabela, has numerous branches in malls

nationwide, they still can’t compare to what she can create for us. That’s why we’re here

today! She’s going to specially design our wedding outfits!”

Liana had gotten her hair done today just for this occasion, even dying it a light caramel

color. She was dressed in a backless red cocktail gown, and her lips were painted bright

red.

All Jasper could think about when he saw the red on her was Alice White, as if only she

could paint her lips that red. Anyone else who tried to mimic her would only embarrass

themselves.

“It’s just clothes,” he grunted. “I don’t need to get another set of clothes. We’ll just get

yours done.”

“Aw, come on! I’m going to be your wife soon. I should get you nice clothes too. You

mustn’t keep any clothes other women give you from now on, okay?” Liana mewled,

leaning against his shoulder.

Jasper’s heart dropped just the slightest as he recalled the suit Alice had made for him. He

had tried his best to maintain it over the years. even when it frayed and tore at the edges.

But clearly, Alice didn’t appreciate the gifts he gave her in the same manner. She hadn’t

defended him at all when the bracelet he’d made

for her had been tossed onto the ground, breaking apart.

He pursed his lips, saying quietly. “Okay.”

The two got out of the car and went up to the door. They were stopped by a man in a suit,

who said, “My apologies, but Ms. Emerson has a

private event today. Only invitees are allowed.”

“Look at what we have,” Liana said with a delighted grin, showing the man two Invitation

cards with rose gold roses printed on them.

“Then, this way, please,” the man nodded and showed them inside.

Several other guests were enjoying drinks and conversation in the event hall, all dressed

finely.

Jasper hadn I expected Liana to bring him to such an occasion. She had kept it from nim

the whole morning. No wonder she was dressed like this.

He didn’t like how things were going. He never participated in any dinner parties or high

tea events unless he had to meet with a client. Right now, he fell like he was being taken

advantage of by Liana.

Sure enough, his appearance shocked many of the guests.

“Isn’t that Jasper Beckett from Beckett Group?”

“It really is him! Damn, he’s even more handsome in person!”

“Who’s that woman with him? How lucky she must be!”

“What? Don’t you know who that is? That’s Liana Gardner, Mr. Beckett’s fiancée! She’s the

one he divorced his ex–wife for. Imagine that!”

“Oh, my God! Are you kidding me?”

Liana was high on all the gossip, feeling unbelievably proud of herself. To her, every

woman here was envious of her because she had successfully won over a man as fine as

Jasper Beckett.
