“Everything he did, he did it for you.”

“So, is he willing to harm others on my behalf?” Alyssa couldn’t take it any longer and

snickered. “He’s attempting to justify his uncivilized behavior. He’d better not use that

excuse anymore-it’ll only

embarrass me!”

“Alyssa!” Jasper called out to her, his tone laden with bitterness. He felt like he was being

crushed. “I’m not trying to justify my actions. I just have one question for you-what do I

mean to you?”

Her breath caught, and her heart ached. In the dim light, she could see the shattered look

in Jasper’s eyes

and the pain that was etched across his face.

Jameson’s sharp gaze bore into Jasper’s pale face.

“If you stay out of my life, we might have a chance to be business partners in the future. If

you remain stubborn, we can only be enemies,” Alyssa cautioned. Then, she walked away

slowly, holding Jameson

without even glancing at Jasper.

Jasper stood motionless for a long time, feeling as though the world had forsaken him.

After what seemed like an eternity, he felt numb from head to toe. His tears had dried in

the wind, only to

Someday, a woman might take Alyssa’s place in his life, but he would never love anyone

As they stepped into the courtyard, Alyssa couldn’t help but sympathize with Jameson

when she noticed

the severe injury on his face. She cautiously asked, “Does it hurt?”

“That bastard! He’s gone out of hand! Alyssa seethed, as though she were ready to

confront Jasper.

“Mr. Beckett is a military school graduate and a veteran, so it’s no surprise that he can be

handed, Jameson explained.

Alyssa’s face fell a little. She questioned, “How did you know about his military past? Did

you investigate

him?”

Jameson calmly replied with a smile, “In both business and relationships, I’m destined to

be his rival. To

win the game, I need to know my rival inside out.”

Alyssa understood the underlying message in his words and pressed her lips together.

Unfortunately, she didn’t share the same sentiments as Jameson. What’s more, she had to

feign

ignorance about his feelings.

He turned to her, worry lacing his tone as he said, “If my mom asks about the injury, you’ll

need to cover

for me.

“How? Should I tell her you fell on your face while walking at night?” she pondered,

frowning at the

impossible idea.

He smiled wryly with an affectionate gaze.

“Hey, I have an idea!” Alyssa had a sudden realization and retrieved a foundation case

from her bag. handing it to him. She suggested, “Use some foundation to conceal it.”

patted it onto the

swollen area on his cheek.

“Ouch…” He couldn’t help but grimace.

She hurriedly asked, “Does it hurt?)

He squinted and intentionally drew nearer to her. Her skin was as soft as a baby’s, right

down to the fine

baby hairs on it.

Oh, how he loved her.

Their breaths intermingled as their noses nearly touched. She detected the minty

slightly lightheaded.

“It hurt a bit. But now, it’s all better,” he replied, gazing Into her eyes with a smile.

quickly stepped back, nearly dropping the foundation case. She might have accidentally

called him by his childhood nickname, but that didn’t mean they were close.

“Let’s go, Lyse, or it’ll be too late to make dinner,” he said, stopping teasing her. He knew

he needed to win her over gradually.

They disappeared into the doors of his villa.

On the other side of the vintage gates, Jasper stood across the street, glaring angrily at

the lights inside

the villa.
