Chapter 173

Liana noticed that Jasper had been fixating on Alice ever since Alice showed up. Fueled by

insecurity and rage, she started plotting her

moves.

“Alice!” Landon flashed a broad smile and waved at her. She nodded softly and returned

the smile while Betty turned green with envy at his enthusiasm.

Just as Alyssa was about to brush shoulders with Jasper, he suddenly reached out to hold

her arm. “Where are you going?”

“I can’t stay by your side, Mr. Beckett.” She slowly removed her arm from his grasp with a

faint smile. Anger flooded his veins. He wanted to say something, only to be interrupted

by Sophia, who approached them arm in arm with Liana.

“Alice, I’m so glad you came. I thought you were going to skip the event.”

They instantly became the center of attention as the quests speculated the relationship

between the stunning beauty and the Beckett. Group.

“Mrs. Beckett, I have no reason to be absent. Grandpa has been looking forward to

celebrating his birthday with Jasper and me,” Alyssa countered with a calm smile.

The look in Jasper’s eyes deepened. Meanwhile, the guests cast funny looks at Llana and

gossiped.

“Did you remember their explosive marriage announcement? Mr. Beckett hasn’t Issued a

statement about it, but everyone in Solana City knows that Ms. Gardner is basically his

fiancée.”

“Why does this young lady sound like Mrs. Beckett while Ms. Gardner sounds like some

mistress?”

“Isn’t that right? You can tell that she comes from wealth from her classy air. Who exactly

is she?”

“She’s a finer lady than Ms. Gardner. She’d make a good pair with Mr. Beckett!”

Liana’s face fell upon hearing the murmurs. She felt that Alice was cornering her. What

Alice did was effectively a declaration of her special relationship with Jasper and Newton

Beckett.

“What about me? I’m Jasper’s fiancée!” Liana scowled in silence.

“Alice, we all know that you are close to Newton.” Sophia concealed her calculative moves

with a warm smile. “Why didn’t Mr. Taylor of KS Group come with you? Javier sent his

secretary to deliver the invitation in person.”

The guests were shocked to hear Jonah’s name. As they assumed that the Beckett Group

and the Taylor Group were archenemies, no one would expect Jonah to attend Newton

Beckett’s birthday event.

A cloud of gloom passed Jasper’s eyes when he realized that Sophia was putting Alice on

the spot. He was about to speak up on Alice’s behalf when she replied, unconcerned,

“You’re being funny. Why would he attend with me?”

“Because he’s your boyfriend.” With a smirk, Sophia went straight to the point, “Let me

introduce you to everyone. Ms. White here is Jasper’s ex–wife and the current girlfriend of

Jonah Taylor, the president of KS Group.”
