“Tell me the truth, Lyse. Did you catch feelings for him again after that incident?” Mandy

asked with

concern.

“Not at all,” Alyssa replied firmly. “I’m not going to dig my own grave. I just want to pay

him back for what

he has done for me.” Her heart panicked for a moment, but she soon gathered herself.

“Good to hear. “Just know that if you ever consider getting back with him, you’re out of our

lives. It’s your

family or that jerk,” Mandy warned and cast a frosty glance at Alyssa.

Alyssa rubbed against the goosebumps on her arm. Her skin prickled at Mandy’s threat.

“Lyse! Mandy!” Colette’s voice interrupted as she knocked on the door and entered.

She exclaimed, “The dresses for Lyla’s birthday party have arrived, and I need your input!

I mean, I’m a

woman who got married in jeans-I know nothing about women’s fashion.”

“Alright! we’ll be right there!” Alyssa replied. Eager to avoid more questioning from

Mandy, she grabbed

Mandy’s arm and headed to see Lyla’s dresses.

The three women hastily made their way to Lyla’s room, where endless opulent evening

gowns were displayed on racks.

Each dress was a limited edition and the latest design from Bastian Fashion Week. It was

truly dazzling!

On the floor, pairs of haute couture heels were laid out. Some of them were adorned with

diamonds in an

envy-inducing display of wealth.

Any other woman would have squealed in delight at the scene. The price of the diamonds

on those heels

alone could buy a house.

However, Lyla appeared lost as she sat on the couch in her simple lilac sweater.

“What’s wrong, Lyla? It’s your birthday soon, but you seem upset,” Alyssa asked with

concern. She took a

seat beside Lyla and wrapped an arm around the latter.

“Lyse, could you please ask your dad to cancel the party?” Lyla sighed. “I’ve been insisting

for months that I wanted a small gathering at home. I’m not accustomed to dining out,

and it feels exhausting and wasteful to host all the guests he invited. But he won’t listen.

What should I do?”

“Woah, Lyla, is that a humblebrag? Colette poked fun at her.

“We would have thought you were a bitch if we didn’t know you better,” joked Mandy, who

rested her hand

on Colette’s waist,

Alyssa’s eyes flickered. She was a little uneasy by Lyla’s behavior. Ever since she was

young, Lyla, who married Winston, had deliberately stayed out of her sight out of

consideration for her feelings. Alyssa would only see her during mealtimes, busying

herself in the kitchen.

Back then, Alyssa was too young to understand much, but she knew that Lyla had been

Jennifer’s romantic rival. As a child, she threw tantrums at home and caused trouble for

Lyla to take Jennifer’s side.

She had even used hurtful words to insult Lyla.

At that time, she perceived women like Lyla as homewreckers. How could they humiliate

themselves by

staying with him, even after knowing that he had been married and had flings with

multiple women?

It wasn’t until she grew a little older that she learned the full story from Jonah and Silas. It

was Lyla who

had selflessly donated her bone marrow to Jennifer, who was battling a severe case of

lupus.

The bone marrow transplant took place two decades ago when medical technology was

less advanced.

Lyla had endured lasting side effects from the transplant, leading to occasional pain

throughout her body.
