“But in the end, you were one step ahead of his game, so you took over the right to host the wedding.

she’d switch to the Beckett Group, isn’t it?”

Bryan made it sound like it made perfect sense.

Alyssa smiled, her captivating eyes narrowed slightly. She leaned back comfortably and smirked.

“Good point, Bryan. But you’ve overlooked one thing-until now, the Beckett Group and Ada have not

signed any official contract,” stated Alyssa,

Everyone was appalled. “What? It’s been a week, and the contract hasn’t been signed?”

Bryan remained calm, but his expression gradually stiffened.

“Ms. Alyssa, you’re truly remarkable! Everyone cheered for Alyssa for her bold statement.

Bryan could only force a smile and went along with the rest.

“But Ms. Alyssa, In the end, it’s KS Group who breached the contract first. Ada must be quite unhappy

with us by now. If you were to go talk to her again, won’t you end up being disappointed?”

A smile beamed on Alyssa’s lustrous lips. Her eyes were glistening with an obsidian-like glow. “In life,

“Yes, and I did manage to bait someone.”

Excitement surged from Sean’s widened eyes. “Really? Who is it?”

Lauren.

Sophia wouldn’t tell her off even if she knew about it, but that wouldn’t be the case for Javier. He would

have scolded Betty.

In the evening, Lauren lay in bed with a sullen expression, clutching the teddy bear she had lost and

recovered the previous night.

She made an effort to piece together the events of the previous night, feeling her heart race as her

Lauren didn’t know that her good-looking Landon had already made his way into Seaview Manor. He

was driving a bright red Ferrari.
