Jasper's eyes glistened. He wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "I don't want his filthy hands to touch my

woman."

"But, have you thought of the consequences if you were to go over now?"

As a bystander, Landon could read the situation clearly. He wanted to help keep Jasper out of harm's

way.

"The Jesseltons' purpose of having tonight's party is to select their business partner. Everyone wants to

obtain that opportunity, including Mr. Taylor.

"If you were to go up and cause a scene, you might ruin Mr. Taylor's potential collaboration. Then,

wouldn't Mr. Taylor hold a grudge against you?

"Lyse has mentioned before that her father is great at holding grudges. So, you'd better not bad-mouth

him at this time. You might end up crushing your dreams!"

While he was hesitating, Alyssa smiled and replied, "Mr. Zeke, welcome to Solana City. As a sign of

respect, please allow me to greet you according to your country's customs."

Upon saying that, she lowered her long lashes. Then, with her fair hands, she lifted the sides of her red

evening gown and gave a steady and elegant curtsy.

All the men around her couldn't help but swoon, including Zeke.

All of a sudden, they felt as if they had traveled back in time to a palace ball during the Middle Ages.

They were in a daze.

But only Alyssa knew the real reason. She didn't want to touch Zeke's hand.

She was well aware that Zeke was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

In Mosgravia, he was even more of a playboy than what Landon used to be. She guessed that the

number of illegitimate children he had had was enough to form a soccer team.

She was germaphobic, and he was filthy.

Jasper seemed to read her mind, and that caused the corners of his lips to curl upward into a sweet

and gentle smile.

Zeke still felt smug. He thought that Alyssa was interested in him, and he had a foolish arrogance in his

eyes.

"On one hand, this party is to announce the upcoming business partnership. On the other hand, my

son was hoping that both of us could have an opportunity to understand each other better. At the same

time, he wanted to have a chance to get to know Ms. Alyssa better."

Ezzo couldn't have been more obvious!

He essentially meant that he had taken a liking to Alyssa. He had intentions for her to become a Mrs.

Jesselton!

When Jonah heard what he had said, his face suddenly turned glum. He gave a conflicted gaze at

Winston, who was beside him.

What Winston said next caught the Jesseltons off guard. "Mr. Ezzo, are you eyeing my daughter to be

your daughter-in-law?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, including the Jesseltons.

Alyssa was also taken aback. She hadn't expected Winston to reveal their intentions!

He was an adult, but he was not low-key at all!

Jasper's chest tightened, and his palms started sweating.

His trust toward Alyssa was unabated, but it was Winston whom he didn't trust.

To benefit their corporation, Winston could allow Tatiana to marry the sly viper, Jameson. So, why

wouldn't he consider the olive branch the Jesseltons were extending to him?

Furthermore, Winston had always looked down on him.

While Ezzo struggled to answer, Zeke replied impatiently, "That's right, Mr. Taylor. I like your daughter.

You can say that it was love at first sight." He was not at all concealing his admiration for Alyssa.

The crowd was in an uproar. The other socialite ladies gritted their teeth in envy.

What good luck did Alyssa have that every one of her suitors was always nobler than the ones before?

She was a divorcee. She was only like a second-hand good. How was it that she was so sought after

by this group of men?

"Ms. Taylor's dashing appearance at the horse racing arena was unforgettable. She was the most

eyecatching woman I have ever seen. After seeing her, I no longer think of or wish to see any other

woman.

"So, I wish to date your daughter. Ms. Alyssa, I also hope you can give me a chance to pursue you,"

Zeke said.

Although his words sounded humble, his expression couldn't hide his arrogance.
