Landon was equally excited at the news, but he had Angelina bring Lauren back to the room as he

wanted to protect Lauren.

Jasper sat on the couch with an arm around Alyssa, listening intently to Axel's story about his

exchange with Amber.

Axel told them everything from Amber hiding a weapon and her failed attempt at seducing him.

However, he left out the details about the sudden kiss Amber planted on his lips.

The kiss had sent a jolt across his body. As she went deeper into the kiss, she wept, much to his

confusion. He wondered why an assassin would weep in front of her victim.

"What the hell? That was pretty crazy!" Landon was intrigued by the incident and gasped, "Did that

happen in modern society? It sounds like something from a story!"

Axel shot him a disdainful look and muttered under his breath, "Idiot."

Landon picked that up, but he chose to overlook it, knowing that he could never win a fight against

Axel. Moreover, he couldn't afford to upset Alyssa's brother and Jasper's brother-in-law.

"So, did you take advantage of her seduction?" Alyssa's mood lightened. Resting in Jasper's arms, she

teased Axel, "You probably haven't had sex in a while. Wasn't that a wonderful opportunity for you? It

must be priceless."

"Do you take me as a clueless virgin? I won't succumb to any woman who throws herself at me," Then,

Axel took a jab at Landon, "unlike Landon Harper."

"I—Fuck!" Landon's cheeks reddened in anger, and he silently cussed at Axel.

"But she looks like me. Didn't you once say that you'd marry a woman who resembles me? I remember

Silas calling you a pervert at that time."

Jasper was green in envy but tried not to show it. His cheeks flushed as well, looking like two red

tomatoes with Landon by his side.

"I have never bought counterfeit. Why would I want a carbon copy of you? I'm not sick in my mind,

alright?" Axel finally lost it.

"Alright, now. I was just teasing you." Alyssa put on a straight face. Despite joking about Axel and

Amber, she felt the fear in hindsight. "So, you mentioned that you used her as bait while you hid in a

corner. Tell me. Did you find out who she's working for?"

Axel snickered and placed his phone on the coffee table. Landon, Jasper, and Alyssa inched closer to

take a good look at the photo on the screen.

The air in the room froze when they recognized the familiar face in the photo, who left the hotel with

Amber. He was Carl Moses, Jameson's secretary.

"So, it was still Jameson's doing after all," Alyssa hissed as she quivered in anger and disgust. "After

Jonah and Miley, he had moved on to put you in harm's way! What a cold-blooded psycho!"

However, Jameson had messed with the wrong man. He might be ruthless, but Axel was worse.

Jasper huddled closer to Alyssa and rubbed his palm against her shoulder to comfort her. He wasn't

surprised by the revelation, for he had had a feeling.

Landon analyzed, "The same woman lured Jasper to the hotel and into Zoe's trap. It all makes sense

now. It was Jameson who set everything up, taking advantage of this woman and my dumb sister Zoe

to drive a wedge between you and Lyse. The evil, meticulously crafted plan matches his modus

operandi."

Gritting his teeth, Landon added, "He caused a misunderstanding between you and Lyse, making you

look like a fuckboy. Because of him, Mr. Taylor was upset with you. Jameson Schmidt nearly won the

game. Damn it! That was vile of him."

Alyssa was gripped by a heartache. She stared at the floor with remorse.

Jasper kissed her on the cheek and declared, "Jameson Schmidt will never get what he wants. Lyse

knows I'll never lie to her. She will trust me."

"You fool." She wiggled in embarrassment and pouted. "What if I choose not to trust you and refuse to

give you a second chance?"

Jasper smiled and stared affectionately into her eyes. "I'll wait for you until you do, even if it takes a

lifetime."
