Javier veiled his warning with a touch of advice. He added, "Furthermore, this is the history between

Jasper and Alyssa—between the Becketts and the Taylors. It would be prudent for you to bring

Cornelius and Zoe home for now. You should stay out of our affairs."

"Hah! Did you hear yourself? Are you saying that Zoe is not guilty of exposing Alyssa's medical history

to the public and shaming Alyssa for her infertility? She did that with the intent of seeking revenge on

Alyssa and fulfilling her own agenda," Landon called out Zoe mercilessly.

However, Landon's words stung Alyssa again. Clenching her teeth and closing her eyes, she struggled

to hold back her tears.

Each tear that slid down her cheek inflicted pain upon Jasper's soul.

How he wished he could hold her tight and kiss her like the intimate nights they had shared. Alas, he

did not feel like he was deserving of her.

"Landon, are you mocking me now?" Javier's patience began to wear thin.

"Well, you shouldn't beat around the bush. I'm a straightforward man. I call a spade a spade. I wonder

what the others make of all this," Landon retorted.

Then, he put on an unbothered look and casually cleaned his ears. "By the way, I'm friends with your

son, not you. Kindly refer to me as 'Mr. Landon.' That sounds much more pleasant to my ears."

Javier's face soured as the guests admired Landon's forthrightness. The young man had outplayed

Javier at his own game. They cast looks of disappointment and disdain at the pale Javier, gossiping

among themselves.

"Zoe Harper could go to any lengths to stop Alyssa from marrying Jasper!"

"Right? The diagnosis was supposed to be confidential. She's a wretched woman for exposing Alyssa's

medical history just to spite her."

"I assume she did that because she lost all hopes of marrying Jasper. That's why she risked her

reputation to drag Alyssa down with her."

"Who'd marry such a despicable woman?"

"Don't get me started on Javier Beckett. From the sounds of it, he was thinking of getting his son to

marry Zoe. Is the Beckett family a trashcan? Why would he bring in such a vile woman? Perhaps he's

interested in Zoe himself?"

The taunts and jeers weighed heavily on Javier, who belatedly realized that forcing Jasper to marry Zoe

and ditch Alyssa was the wrong move all along.

"Grandpa, my ear hurts! Am I going deaf? I don't want to lose my hearing! Get me to the hospital," Zoe

wailed and pleaded in a panic.

"Let's go! Get Zoe to the hospital!" Cornelius instructed.

However, Jonah suddenly bellowed sternly, "No one is leaving!"

The Harpers were taken aback by Jonah's declaration.

Zoe, feeling ashamed, wanted to hide away.

Jonah strode to Alyssa and freed her hand from Winston's tight grip. He began, "Dad, what's the point

of getting angry at Lyse? You're only stepping into the trap of your opponent.

"What you're doing now is hurting Lyse as well. She's not just your precious daughter; she's my

beloved sister too. She's already in great pain. Please do not add to her suffering."

Winston quivered upon hearing Jonah's remark. It was then he realized that he had gripped Alyssa's

hand so tightly that it had turned a frightening shade of red.
