“I’ve asked Liana to leave. She will notbother me anymore.” Jasper stared into Alyssa’s unfeeling eyes
and swallowed hard.
“Is that so? Congrattions, then. At leastone good thing came out of tonight’s debacle. You got rid of
a trouble.” Alyssa shed him a sarcastic smile, like a proud and thorny rose.
She continued, “I know you are an expert at wrapping up romantic rtionships. I wonder if Ms.
Gardner has received her 20 million dors and a vi?”
Jasper felt as though he was physically struck by the sh of purplish lightning outside the window. His
shoulders were trembling, and his chest was numb from the pain.
He was again reminded of the cruel scene where he threw the divorce papers at
Alyssa. He stubbornly wanted to escape from the contract marriage without thinking about the hurt he
had inflicted on her.
His action almost destroyed her pride and ego.
The tear-stained divorce paper remained tucked away in his headboard storage.
He was afraid to picture Alyssa’s heartbreak on that day when she signed the paper alone after he
abandoned her for Liana like a jerk.

He felt like he was stabbed in the throat, and his heart almost shattered into pieces. He might have
been wronged by many in his life, but Alyssa was not one of them—loving him was not wrong.
Even if he did not love her in their marriage, he shouldn’t have disregarded her feelings and broken her
precious heart.
There was no way of piecing her shattered heart back.
“Mr. Gorham told me you saved Grandpain the golden hour through acupuncture. Thank you,” he
croaked.
“You don’t have to. He’s my grandpa, too.Now, please make way for me.” Looking down at the floor,
she refused to engage with him and decided to leave. However, he stood in her way and towered over
her.
“Don’t stand in people’s way. Where areyour manners?” She gritted her teeth and red up.
“Alyssa, I want to make it up to you.”Jasper fixed his burning gaze on her.”Tell me, what can I do to
make it up to you?”
“Are you sick in the mind? Why don’t youget your brains checked since you’re at the hospital?” Smiling
with furrowed brows, she felt that his words were an affront.
“I was wrong to hurt you.”
“Stop.”She irritatedly gestured.”Jasper,please stop apologizing to me. I’m sick of
hearing your apology.
“By the way, I have gotten over it. Youwere not in the wrong for loving Liana and wanting to marry her.
You were only being loyal to the true love of your life and did nothing wrong from the start. It was me
who fell in love with the wrong man.
“Anyway, I’d only make that mistakeonce. I v ow never to trip over the same stone twice.”
Jasper’s eyes reddened as he curled his shaking fists. He was shamed and crucified by her pointed
remarks.
Indeed, the two of them fell in love with the wrong person. Alyss a learned her lesson and decided to let
go and live her life. In contrast, he sank deeper into remorse and guilt over his sins.
“Lyse!”
Alyssa turned around when she heard someone calling her name. She saw Jonah and Ss walking to
her from the other
end of the corridor.
“Jonah! Ss!” The sorrows in her eyeswere gone in an instant. She knocked aside the frozen Jasper
and flung herself into the embrace of her brothers.
“I’m hungry! Jonah, can you make supperfor me at home?” She held onto Jonah’s arm and pouted.
“Me too! I’m hungry. Please feed me!”Ss mimicked her action and held onto Jonah’s other arm. They
were transported back to their childhood at that moment.
“Fine. I’ll stuff you little rascals with foodwhen we get home.”Jonah smiled dotingly at his two siblings.
Meanwhile, Jasper watched helplessly as the Taylor siblings vanished from the corridor and out of his
sight. His world was flooded with loneliness, pain, and bitterness.
After leaving him, she was showered with love from others around her. On the contrary, he felt like a
shell of himself after leaving her.
