Chapter 537
“I love you, Alyssa Taylor. I’ve fallen for you.”
Alyssa held her breath and stumbled backward without knowing it. Only she would
understand the mixed feelings from hearing Jasper’s love confession.
They could hear each other’s heart beating in the silence.
“I would have accepted your confession right away if it happened in the three years we
were married. But it’s too late now. I told you before that my feelings for you had expired. I
no longer love you,” Alyssa
responded with a stoic look in her eyes.
“I’m sorry. I know my confession comes too late, but I’m not one to give up when I set my
mind to something,” Jasper argued, his forehead dotted with sweat.
He wanted to go up to her but feared that he might scare her off. “It’s fine if you don’t
love me. I’ll be the
one who sacrifices for you this time around. I’ll-”
He wanted to say, “I’ll love you”. He never told Liana he loved her, but he had an urge to
use the word on
Alyssa.
“Enough. I do not need the love from a man I’m not interested in. How many times do I

keep spouting nonsense.”
That immediately silenced him. After a while, when Alyssa looked much more composed,
he cautiously
asked, “I won’t bring it up anymore. Will you stay the night?”
“Pfft. Dream on.”
“You said you’d grant me a promise if I save you, as long as it’s not something
outrageous,” Jasper
persisted.
“Last night, you-” She recalled how Jasper had kissed her in the same room yesterday.
He had pinned her by the waist and showered her with a long, passionate kiss. She
blushed at the thought
as heat rose in her body.
“Oh, are you talking about the kiss? That doesn’t count,” Jasper said in a low voice as he
grinned,
pleasured by the sight of her embarrassment.
“That doesn’t count?” she raised her voice in shock. She finally realized how cunning
Jasper could be and
that she should really stay away from him.

“Sure, I forced a kiss on you, but you counterattacked,” he said, pointing at the scab on
his lip. “Here’s the
evidence.”
“You deserved it! I’d tear your lips to pieces if I could, you pervert!” Her cheeks reddened
in anger at the
thought of his advance.
“Okay. Go ahead,” Jasper invited her with a straight face, even leaning backward as a
welcoming gesture.
She gritted her teeth. How she wished she could kick him off his bed to wipe that gleeful
smile off his
face!
She didn’t want to argue further with Jasper, who had guilt-tripped her. Instead, she caved
in and decided
to stay the night.
Since she arrived at the hospital in a rush, she did not bring anything with her. She had to
request Sean to

Sean returned to the hospital soon with a somber expression. He walked down the corridor
with a tiny
suitcase in his hand.
“Sorry for the trouble, Sean. You should get home and rest now. Pick me up tomorrow
morning,” Alyssa
thanked Sean and was about to take the suitcase from him, but he refused to let go of it.
He implored her, “Ms. Alyssa, come home with me.”
“I know Jasper has thrown out a sudden request, but it’s not a big deal to me. I don’t mind
paying him
back this way,” Alyssa explained calmly.
“But you’ll share a room with him! What if he’s up to no good and… and …”
“I was once married to him. If he really wanted to take advantage of me, he wouldn’t have
waited until
today.”
“But-”
Alyssa waved off Sean and reassured him, “Jasper might be a jerk, but he understands the
law. If he ever
forces himself on me, I’ll castrate him.”
