“What?” Belly shrieked but was quickly silenced with a hand on her mouth.


    “Shh! Be quiet!”


    “Y–You wanna drug Alice? During tonight’s celebration?”


    Liana whispered deviously. “If we can get Alice to sleep with Jonah tonight right when the celebration is


    going on, imagine the impact on her!


    “Then, Alice’s carefully built reputation would crumble apart in front of the masses, angering and


    disgusting both Jasper and her grandfather. Even the Taylor family wouldn’t want anything to do with


    her anymore.


    “Plus, you hate how close she is with Mr. Harper, don’t you? Do you think he would still want to be


    involved with Alice once news of her being a whore goes out?”


    Betty gaped at Liana in shock. It was true that she despised Alyssa and had thought of confronting her


    from time to time, but never to drag her down in such a backward way!


    “If someone finds out about this, we’re doomed!”


    “No one will know. There are so many people here tonight. Plus, even if they did, they wouldn’t have


    any evidence that it was us. If you’re scared, send someone to do it in your stead.

    “Pour a bit of this in Jonah Taylor’s ss, and I’ll do Alice’s. We’ll do it sneakily and separately. That


    way, no one will be able to trace it back to us,” Liana said.


    For good measure, she then added, “You also saw how Mr. Harper only had eyes for Alice tonight. He


    barely looks at you and doesn’t even


    talk to you.”


    Betty’s heart tugged painfully as shame and embarrassment clouded her chest.


    “If you don’t remove Alice from this equation, you’ll never get your chance with Mr. Harper. You’ll end


    up being made a fool. So think carefully about what you want to do next!” Liana urged Betty on, using


    Sophia’s words to her advantage.


    Finally, Betty nodded, her eyes determined.


    Outside, the guests were still enthralled with the aria performance. Landon hadn’t been able to take his


    eyes away from Alyssa, who looked beautiful onstage.


    Jasper was also staring at her familiar yet distant face. Everything he had consumed turned to acid and


    tar in his throat.


    “No wonder men have suffered years of agony all for her. Beauty, terrible beauty!” Jonah said lightly,


    sighing under his breath.


    Just then, a wave of gasps swept across the crowd of guests. Alyssa opened her eyes out of curiosity.


    What she saw made her freeze up right on the spot.


    Winston Taylor was walking into the garden, apanied by his secretary and several armed guards.


    He had a regal air about him that made the guests step out of his way almost instantly.


    “Is–Is that KS Group’s president, Winston Taylor?”

    The


    Alyssa’s vote wavered best the allobteal as for heart pompted against her chest.


    Why was Whyshon here?


    Was he here for Newton’s bithday?
