“It’s my duty to protect her. I would never ask for any reward or praise,” Jasper remarked.

He closed his eyes as a dull pain pulsed in his chest. “I am only making amends for

wronging her in the last three years.”

“With your life?”

“Well, I can’t make amends with money, can I? Do you realize how wealthy her family is?”

Jasper’s temper flared.

Landon scratched his head. Right, Alyssa could afford anything with her wealth.

Jasper’s thoughts drifted to the memory of her pale face in his arms, which only intensified

his heartache.

He wondered if she was awake now and if her fever had subsided. He also couldn’t help

but worry if she suffered any fractures from hanging onto the cliff.

She was all he could think about.

Taking a deep breath, he clutched his bedsheet tightly as if trying to kill a budding urge.

Had he truly fallen for her? 2

His heart raced at the thought of it. His breaths grew heavy, and his cheeks flushed.

“Hm, why are your cheeks red? Do you have a fever?” Landon wanted to take Jasper’s

temperature by

touching the forehead, but Jasper swatted his hand away.

“Ouch! That fucking hurt!” Landon grinned while shaking his hand. “You’ve got quite the

What the hell were you doing?”

With that, Alyssa entered the room with Sean’s assistance. Her presence was

astonishingly captivating.

After a shower, she changed into an aqua-blue dress and a chic white cashmere coat. Her

radiant

complexion left Jasper dazzled.

She strutted in her iconic high heels, her head held high. She didn’t look sick at all.

She was literally glowing from head to toe when she gave Jasper a frosty stare. Her

kisses.

Jasper pressed his parched lips together and put on a look of dismay.

“I’m asking you. Answer me!” Though she appeared emotionless, she silently observed his

pale

expression, which only fueled her anger.

Her irritation grew as she scolded him, “What’s your plan? Keeping your injuries hidden

from me and

avoiding me physically? Is this your way of grabbing my attention?”

Landon was caught off guard by Alyssa’s domineering air. On the other hand, Jasper

looked like a

disgruntled spouse as he weakly sat on the bed and shot a begrudging look at Alyssa.

Once the idea crossed Landon’s mind, he suddenly saw the situation in a comical light. He

couldn’t help

but guffaw.
