Jasper, standing with his back facing her, felt a thrill in his heart as a smile shed across his lips.


    However, he did not have the courage to face Alyssa.


    Meanwhile, Jameson pursed his lips. A storm was brewing in his eyes.


    Alyssa and Jasper might have divorced on bad terms, but he sensed theplicated feelings that


    lingered between the two.


    “Since you’re already here, why don’t you clear the air before you leave?” She took a step forward and


    stared at Jasper’s straight back. “Don’t skulk around like a thief. You’re going to give me nightmares.”


    His Adam’s apple moved. He turned to her and said, word by word, “Nothing. I’ve just been losing


    sleep


    these past few days.”


    She frowned as she was puzzled by the rtionship between his Belbanks trip and his insomnia. Was


    his


    insomnia rted to her?


    Speechless, she felt unfairly med for his troubles. She certainly hadn’t caused him any problems!


    “Take your sleeping pills if you’re having trouble sleeping. Coming to Belbanks won’t solve your


    problems.”


    “It’s been resolved.” He cast a knowing nce at her. “I believe I’ll have a good night’s sleep tonight.”


    With that, he turned around and left.


    She watched his slender figure and the ck sports car vanish into the night before blurting out, “He’s


    absolutely insane!”


    Back in this car, Jasper was instantly hit by waves of exhaustion, ready to drop at any time. His eyes


    were


    even more bloodshot than when he had arrived at Heightsnew Vi.


    He folded his arms on the steering wheel. His biceps were tense, apanied by frustration and


    labored


    breathing.


    He stared until Alyssa and Jameson entered the Heightnews Vi and closed the gates behind them. It


    jolted his heart.


    Trembling, he dialed Xavier’s number.


    “Mr. Beckett, any orders?”


    “Look into it.”


    “Huh? Look into what?” Xavier was puzzled.


    “The rtionship between the Taylors and the Schmidts. The rtionship between Alyssa Taylor and


    Jameson Schmidt.”


    He clenched his jaw. “Alyssa isn’t one to fall in love easily. I do not believe in Jameson’s description of


    their rtionship.”


    “Roger that! I’ll get to it right away!” Xavier sounded overjoyed. He even daringly added, “Madam


    wouldn’t


    have left you if you had trusted her from the beginning. She won’t be dealing with those pests!”


    “One more word from you, and I’ll ship you off to Alethia!”


    Xavier groaned, “Pardon me, your royal highness! It’s all my fault!”


    Alyssa had caught news of Jasper standing in front of Heightsnew Vi. She had wanted to ignore his


    dramatic act and leave him suffering in the wind.


    To her dismay, Jameson went out to meet with him. She couldn’t let trouble brew and thus had to


    resolve


    the situation decisively.


    The episode did not change the mood at the dinner. The event ended on a happy note.


    Winston returned to his study with Neil and secretly called Jonah and Ss in for a meeting.


    “Dad, what’s up?” Jonah questioned.


    “How much do you know about Lyse and Jameson? Tell me the truth.” Winston tidied his outfit and sat

    squarely on the couch.


    The brothers exchanged nces. Ss immediately ratted out his brother, “Dad, you have to ask


    Jonah. about this. I knew nothing about Lyse and Jameson showing up together!”


    Jonah remainedposed.


    “Jonah, what stage are they at?”
