Chapter 336

After returning from Yoarkley, Xavier constantly paid close attention to Alyssa and KS

World Hotel’s

activities.

Unfortunately for Jasper, Alyssa hadn’t done a single thing moving forward since that day.

She was still

busy managing the hotel, not even stepping out of Solana City once.

Jasper gazed outside his window, brows wrinkled in thought.

Wasn’t Alyssa worried?

Ada’s wedding was right around the corner. Or had she secretly given up on hiring Alexa

for this project?

The rose garden affair, Sophia’s arrest, and the Verdane Valley project being snatched out

of his hands

had slowly instilled a sense of apprehension in Jasper toward her.

Jasper couldn’t help but curse at himself for fearing Alyssa after their divorce.

Just then, the phone on his desk rang.

“Mr. Jasper, Mr. Landon is here for you.”

“Have him come inside.”

Landon strode into his office like he owned the place, then lounged on his couch.

“How many times do I have to tell you to not come over here without anything important

to tell me? I’m

not as carefree as you are.” Jasper didn’t even look up at Landon, only quickly flipping

through the

documents on his table.

“Tsk. You’re not some warlord busy planning your next move. Lighten up a little.

“Actually, you do resemble those warlords my mom was watching a documentary about

recently. They’re

heartless, selfish pricks. You’d fit in.”

“The door is right there if you have nothing better to do.”

“Now that Zoe’s back home, Mom’s inviting you over for dinner.”

“Thanks, but no thanks. I’m busy with Ada’s proposal.”

“How long has it been since you saw your godmother? Did you know she wanted to cook

for you first

thing after returning home from her overseas treatment? Are you seriously going to reject

her?”

Landon scowled. “She even got all the ingredients for that dish you liked. Imagine how

disappointed she’d

Jasper pursed his lips. “Alright, fine. I’ll go.”

“There we go!” Landon smacked his leg excitedly.

Jasper recalled how things had transpired at the National Theater-how Zoe had been so

touchy-feely that it made Jasper immensely uncomfortable.

They used to hold hands when Zoe was 10. He was only a few years older than her then.

Back then, he

saw her as an actual kid sister, especially since she was Landon’s sister.

But things had changed now that they were all adults. While she might still be naive, he

couldn’t afford to

do as they did before.

“Is Zoe …”

Just then, a knock on the door interrupted Jasper.

“Come in.”

“Mr. Jasper, I’ve gathered the information you requested about Madam and Jameson

Schmidt’s

connections and their families’ relations!” Xavier rushed in, his excitement evident in his

voice.

Upon hearing that, Landon blinked incredulously but said nothing.

Jasper, on the other hand, nearly snapped his pen in two.

“Oh, uh … I see that you’re occupied. Then, I’ll take my leave first, ” Xavier said

awkwardly, slowly stepping

back outside.

“Stay. Come on, I’m no stranger.” Landon grinned, then snagged an orange from the

coffee table. He

peeled it with his fingers while eyeing Jasper from the corner of his eye.

Landon continued, “What’s this then? Finally deciding to get her back?”

“Eat your orange and shut up. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t know.”

“Shouldn’t know? I was the one who courted Alyssa from the start, so don’t give me that

attitude!” Landon

chewed on an orange slice.

“So what?” Jasper gazed at him curiously. “She married me. Also, she shut you out the

door.”

“Hey, don’t go rubbing that in my face now. Anyway, you’ve divorced her!”

Landon had a strong urge to smack Jasper in the face with his orange. “If you were

capable of divorcing

herself, why rely on Xavier to do the dirty work?”
