What Newton said was as fatal as a nuclear bomb to her. All these years, she had put on an obedient act to get in Newton's good books. However, it turned out that all her efforts were for naught.

"I know how you feel, Landon. You don't have to say anything else. | get you." Silently, Alyssa wiped the tears from her eyes. Jasper took this chance to pull her in by the waist. He whispered in her ear.
