Chapter 164
“Why?” Jasper’s eyes wavered in shock as he frowned. He had taken a while to build up
the courage for the apology. For that, he lost sleep
for a week.
At first, he had planned to apologize to Alice at Newton’s birthday event. However, when
he heard that Landon had shown up at Alice’s place, he could walt no more and
Immediately mished over to meet her.
He was confused by his rash action as he had never behaved in this way in the past. He
knew there was a switch button for his emotions, but it slowly dawned upon him that Alice
was in control of it.
“Llana should be apologizing to me. Why would you do that on her behalf? Are you
showing off your love for her?” Her icy gaze pierced through him. “If she committed a
murder, would you take the punishment for her as well?”
“Alice, I’m here to offer a sincere apology!‘ He raised his voice,
“I feel you’re here to anger me.” She chuckled. Her eyes were dripping with iciness. “You
shouldn’t throw around your apology. It’s an affront.”
“Are you picking on me?” His lone grew hostile.

to be snubbed.” She attempted to free her wrist. which hurt to the core. “Let go of me! I’m
going back!”
“So what if I apologize on her behall? At the end of the day, I’ve offered you an apology.
What else should I do to make you happy?” Losing control of his temper, he grabbed her
by the shoulders and shook her.
“It was never my intention to force you into giving In. I wanted only for you to love me, but
I understood and accepted the fact that you would never do so. Why would you annoy me
after I’ve received closure? Am I that insignificant to you?”
She smiled bitterly. Her eyes were red in anger. Shocked, he felt that she had stared
through his soul.
“I want you to stay out of my life and never show up again. Bye. See yourself out.”
She flung his hands off her shoulders, but he grabbed her hand. “How could you possibly
keep me out of your life? You’ll always be a divorcee after we end our marriage. You can
never wipe away our history.”
“That’s for me to decide. You might think of it as a divorce, but I feel like I’m widowed.”
She looked at him with disdain as though he was a
speck of dust.
Suddenly, his gaze flickered, as if he had been struck. His mind buzzed as a sharp pain
coursed through it.
He gasped as his hand trembled in pain. “Alice, I will never let go of you! You’re taking my
last name! Don’t ever dream of starting anew as long as I refuse to divorce you.” J
Tears rolled down her cheeks. She could take it no more and slapped him across the face.
This was her second time hitting him, but it felt different. There was a hole in her heart, as
if he had physically stabbed her with his words.
“Had I known you were such a jerk, I wouldn’t have married you!”
She fled his car and slammed the car door behind her. She hastily ran into the villa in the
rain without even taking her umbrella.
Jasper looked on with vacant eyes. His head froze in the lilted position after she slapped
him on the cheek.
Moments later, he curled into a ball and wrapped his arms around his head. Trembling, he
suffered through the throbbing headache,
looking pitiful and miserable.
Back in the villa, Alyssa stayed out of Sean’s way and ran into her bedroom. She couldn’t

top of the stairs.
With one hand on the wall, she gripped her sleeves with the other. Gasping like a drowning
person, she had to muster all her energy to stop the tears from falling.
Alice/ Landon approached her from behind with a concerned voice. She gritted her teeth
and held her tears back.
“I’m tired. I won’t see you off as I need my rest. Thanks for the gift.”
“Alice, what’s wrong?” He questioned with trepidation.
“Nothing’s wrong. Good night.”
“Alice!” He went up to her in huge strides and held her shoulders, forcing her to turn and
face him.
She felt a little dizzy after he forcefully spun her around. Her misty eyes looked glazed and
woeful, adding to her allure.
“Are you crying?” He stared at her fearfully.
“No,” she answered flatly, only to be betrayed by her reddened eyes.
“Did Jasper make you angry? He’s just a dumb and insensible dude! Don’t take his words
to heart. He’s not worth it.”
