Chapter 541
Jasper didn’t have a choice. The men surrounding Alyssa were all distinguished in their
own right. Now,
he had another Taylor sibling to worry about-Liam, the young colonel.
“Lyse, he didn’t do anything to you, did he?” Liam held Alyssa’s shoulders and examined
her from head to
toe.
“I’m fine! Let’s leave, Liam,” suggested Alyssa. She tried to drag Liam away, worried that
war would break
out between Liam and Jasper at any second.
To her dismay, her worst fear came true.
Liam addressed the others coldly, “Jonah, Sean, please leave with Alyssa. I’ll join you
shortly.”
“Liam!” Alyssa called out to him, her tone tinged with concern. She knitted her brows.
“Lyse, let’s go.” Jonah wrapped an arm across her shoulder and gave Jasper a knowing
look.
He then whispered in Alyssa’s ear, “You know Liam is the calmest and the gentlest of all,
don’t you? Don’t
worry. He knows where to draw the line.”

She let out a sigh and left with Jonah. After all, it was unlikely that anything serious would
happen
between Liam and Jasper in a hospital setting.
Jasper’s intense gaze followed Alyssa on her way out and lingered until the door was
closed.
Suddenly, he recalled that she hadn’t had breakfast. He was about to pick up the food
container from the
table when Liam pressed it back down.
Their gazes locked, and tension hung in the air.
“I’ll send her breakfast. She hasn’t had anything,” Jasper remarked icily.
“You don’t have to. I’m worried she might suffer after eating food from a massive jerk,”
Liam retorted with
a chuckle.
Liam continued, “Trying to win her back with pity and sweet talk, are you? You’re the one
who caused her suffering! Do you take her for a puppy that can be lured with a treat? You
think too highly of yourself.”
“I was in the wrong. From now on, I’ll give my best and treat her well,” Jasper admitted. He
glared at Liam
and attempted to retrieve the food container,
if he remembered correctly, Alyssa always had digestive issues. Even now, he felt a pang
of guilt thinking about her curling up in pain on the couch from gastric distress at the
charity auction event.

Liam scoffed. “Hmph, I’d never believe in a word you say!” Then, he suddenly lifted a
hand and knocked
over the container.
Before Jasper could react, Liam swiftly tossed the second container onto the ground,
sending plates crashing and food scattering across the floor.
Liam’s actions greatly wounded Jasper.
Liam spat, “Stay away from my sister. Consider this my last warning.”
He pointed a finger at Jasper’s pale face and added, “Or you’ll end up like the mess on the
floor!”
Jasper closed his eyes and took a deep breath. There was a murderous look in his eyes
when he
reopened his eyes.
He declared, “I will not give up on her. I have decided that she’s the one for me. I love her,
and I want to be with her. Even if everyone is against my decision and the Taylor family
tries to sabotage me, I will not
waver.”

Liam was jumping in anger at Jasper’s audacity. Soon, he burst into a mocking laughter.
“Did you think the Taylor family could stand in your way? We tried to talk Lyse out of
marrying you, but she
went ahead anyway.
“Tell you what, even if our family did nothing, she’d never get back with you. You’ve
exhausted all her love
and patience. There’s no room for you in her heart anymore.
“Do not mistake her action yesterday for love. She’s much like her father, loyal and
principled. She would
have done the same for someone else. So, please do not flatter yourself.”
Jasper’s heart was thumping wildly as he curled his fist. No matter what people said to
him, his feelings
for Alyssa would not change.
After a period of fighting, confrontation, and entanglement, he realized that he had fallen
for Alyssa. Even
he worried that he might have arrived at the realization too late.
He feared he no longer had a place in her heart, just like what Liam had said.
Liam ignored Jasper and marched out of the door. Suddenly, he came to a halt and
dropped a remark,
saying, “I heard from Lyse that you came from a military background. Pfft. You are a
disgrace to the
military!”
