Alyssa froze in surprise, then slowly turned around.

Once again, it was him.

Jasper felt like the ground was sinking as he watched Alyssa stand beside the man from

earlier. He looked down and noticed her heavily bandaged arm. His heart clenched at that

sight. He instinctively took a step forth.”Your arm-”

Alyssa swiftly stepped back behind Jameson.

Nervously, Jasper gulped when he locked eyes with the other man.

“People say the third time’s the charm.However, I usually make sure it ends the second

time,”Jameson said deliberately, adjusting his spectacles. “You’ve taken her away from me

once tonight. Do you think I’d allow it a second time?”

“Who are you?” Jasper asked frostily.

Having learned his lesson with Alyssa’s brothers, he worried that this might be another

one of Winston Taylor’s sons. However, Alyss a gazed at the man differently, a look distinct

from the one she used with her brothers.

“He’s someone with a closer relationshipto me than you, someone more important,

“Alyssa spoke up just then.

Jameson shot her a pleased grin.

“I made myself clear earlier outside theclub, Jasper. I don’t understand why you continued

to hold on. What’s the point of all this?”

Jasper bristled upon hearing Alyssa’s words.”Shouldn’t you know better, Alyssa? You got

yourself drunk with some stranger you’ve never met. I was worried about you.”

Alyssa scowled.”Your worry disgusts me.

Please, Mr. Beckett. I’ve hurled my guts out once. I don’t want a second time.”

She couldn’t be more cruel.

Jasper opened his mo uth as if to speak, but his heart hurt so intensely that he couldn’t

find any words.

Wave after wave of pain had struck him deep tonight, making it nearly impossible to stand

upright. It felt as though he was slowly falling apart at the seams.

Why was it that the longer they were apart from each other, the more he couldn’t let her

go?

Was he actually regretting their divorce?

Jasper descended into a downward spiral of self-doubt. Had he been wrong from the start?

“Mr. Beckett!Mr. Beckett, Ms. Gardnerhas … She’s out of the critical period now! “Just then,

Xavier yelled, running over tothem.

Xavier didn’t notice Alyss a was present, but when he did, it was too late. He wished the g

round would open up and swallow him whole.

“So Mr. Beckett already has his hands full.”Jameson nodded to himself.”Why doyou keep

on following Ms. Alyssa, then?”

Jasper’s eyes darkened as Xavier hastily glanced away. The latter couldn’t help but think

that Jameson was being too upfront.

Meanwhile, Alyssa tensed up slightly. She couldn’t figure out how Jameson knew who she

was.

“If you two have divorced, then by right,you should stay out of each other’s lives,”Jameson

said coldly, eyeing Jasper.”The first step to being a gentleman is learning proper

manners.”

Xavier was upset now. He stormed up to Jameson, saying, “How dare you talk to him like

that?”

“Alright, you’ve had your fun,”Alyssasaid tenderly, leaning up to the man. She didn’t want

him to cause a big scene.

“Okay.”Jameson’s cold glare instantlyswitched to a warm smile.

Jasper gazed at the two as they left, the blood in his veins slowly turning to liquid ice.
