"I'm sorry, Jonah ..." Alyssa murmured, nestled in Jonah's embrace.

Jonah, overwhelmed by guilt, shook his head and pulled her into a deep hug. "Nonsense, my princess.

You've done nothing wrong. No need for apologies. It's my fault for not giving you enough attention. I

should be sorry to you."

She gave him a wry smile. Finally, she realized her naivete. She had thought she could shoulder the

pain on her own to protect her love and her family from guilt and worry.

Still, all her efforts went down the drain when the truth came out.

Jonah held her close, stealing a glance at Jasper's pale face before turning away. "I've stationed our

bodyguards around the castle. No one from the Harper family can leave until this matter has been

resolved."

Jasper's last glimmer of hope was shattered under Jonah's gaze. Feeling like a sinner, he thought he

had poured all his love into Alyssa, only to discover he had deeply wounded her. He did not deserve to

be with her. He did not even deserve to hold any hope.

The onlookers, however, were interested in staying and watching the drama. Cornelius lost his calm at

that moment. Pointing a finger at Jonah, he growled, "Jonah Taylor, you're unlawfully detaining us! I

can sue you for that."

"Go ahead and sue me. Zoe Harper violated Alyssa's privacy, illicitly obtaining and publicizing her

private information. We Taylors could sue you for the damages caused by your malicious actions!"

Sean had now changed into a suit and dashed into the hall, looking energized as if he was never

injured. Worried he might cause a stir, he had covered his left eye injury with a gauze. Despite his

injury, he hurried over upon hearing about Alyssa's plight.

Although he knew Jonah would protect Alyssa, he still wished to do something for her, a decision fully

supported by Tatiana.

"Sean ." Alyssa's eyes shimmered, and she choked back tears.

"Tsk tsk. I can't believe that Ms. Zoe is ignorant of the law," another voice rang in the hall.

Julien strolled up to Sean and snickered at Zoe. "Actually, you're not ignorant, just a reckless fool who

thought she had everything under control. You went about it with the stupidest method—exposing

other's privacy. You've shown your fucking character for the world to see and drag yourself down with it.

I've never seen something as idiotic as that."

Jonah frowned gently, a faint smile playing on his lips. Julien hadn't been in Solana City long. Yet, he

appeared to have picked up the essence of cursing in the local language.

"In my opinion, we can skip the court session. I bet the scene was captured on surveillance footage

and the phones of some of our guests here. Once the video gets online, Ms. Zoe's reputation will be

irreparable. She'd do better hiding in shame than facing the immense embarrassment."

Winston was taken aback by Mandy's nephew, Julien. Not only that, he was surprised that Julien sided

with the Taylors. He couldn't help but marvel at Julien's sharp tongue.

"D-Do you take us Harpers as a doormat? We're not!" Cornelius, aflame with rage, tapped his walking

stick. He commanded, "Summon the Harper bodyguards! We'll fight our way out of this castle if we

must!"

"Gosh, Grandpa, are you senile or too angry to think straight?" Landon yawned lazily. "I'm in charge of

the family bodyguards. They can't make a move without my orders."
