Chapter 382

Whenever Jasper saw Alyssa getting close to someone from the opposite sex, it frustrated him. He so

badly wanted to rid her of the men.

He sensed that he was getting weirder and more begrudged by the day. The self-control he had always

prided himself on was nowhere to be found when he was with Alyssa.

Alyssa was riled up upon hearing his remark. She said mockingly, “Yeah, we do know each other.

We’re

archenemies.

“Alyssa,” Jasper croaked. His chest tightened.

“An ex-husband shouldn’t be out telling everyone about our ‘relationship.” You should lay low and shut

up.

Don’t you have any manners?”

Her ex-husband? Vincent was shocked to learn that Alexa had been married. He hadn’t heard of it,

even as her close friend of many years. The question was, why did she marry Jasper?

Alexa was a goddess who had better options. Why did she choose to marry a jealous fellow?

“Mr. Beckett, you want to find trouble? I’m fine with that. The sight of you has already pissed me off

anyway. But I don’t want to drag Mr. Carter, an important friend, into this,” she hissed and added. you

still care about your reputation.”

Clenching his jaw, Jasper felt gutted. His fingers dug hard into his sweaty palms.

Alyssa seemed willing to speak up and defend any individual against him. As for him, an ex-husband

she

had once loved deeply, was unworthy.

“The show is about to begin. Aren’t you supposed to keep your girl company? She’ll be anxious if she

can’t find you.” Alyssa prepared to leave with Vincent, leaving Jasper frozen on the ground.

In a panic, Jasper seized her arm and tightened his grip.

“Hey, you have nothing to do with her if you’re divorced! Please show her some respect!” Vincent

intervened, only to be stopped by Alyssa.

She urged, “Vincent, they’re waiting for your speech. Go ahead. I’ll be fine.”

“But…”

“Don’t worry. We’re divorced. He can’t do anything to me.”

Jasper felt that she had chipped away at his heart. The excruciating pain led him to hold on tighter.

Knowing that the ex-spouses needed to sort out their issues, Vincent knew his place and decided to

leave. He was confident that no one would cause a scene on his turf anyway. 2

The corridor was enveloped in a tense silence. Jasper heard the thud of his heart. He tried to hold his

breath, but that didn’t help to calm him down,

“Let go of me,” she hissed and struggled, showing no affection of any sort.

“I know who you were referring to just now. You meant Zoe, right?” He anxiously pulled her closer. She

pressed softly against his solid frame, their breaths mingling.

“I never mentioned her name. How do you know it was Ms. Harper?” Her caustic eyes bore into him.

Seems like she’s still on your mind. Why else would you react so strongly, Jasper?”

Alyssa deliberately mimicked Zoe’s saccharine tone to irk him.

He smiled bitterly. Women could be quite difficult to argue with.

He wa

was more curious than angry. He wanted to know his place in her heart and asked in a throaty voice,”

Alyssa, are you jealous?”

She laughed incredulously and shook her head. “What’s wrong with you? The nerve to ask me that

question!

“You were entangled with Liana when we were married. You jetted off to Mosgravia at Christmas to

watch the lights with her. You even custom-ordered a one-of-a-kind jewelry for her.

“Not once did I feel a hint of jealousy after you treated me so poorly. How dare you question me on

jealousy after our divorce? You shameless son of a bitch.”
