Chapter 363


    Betty thought that Zoe was a bluff. She couldn’t help but wonder how someone like Zoe could possibly


    get her hands on Alexa’s designs when even a celebrity superstar like Ada had trouble doing so.


    Betty rolled her eyes silently, though she still praised, “You’re amazing, Zoe! If you can find one of


    Alexa’s


    designs to give Ada, she’ll definitely join us!


    “That way, we’d get revenge on Alyssa and help my brother. You’ll leave a good impression on him,


    too.


    I’m sure your rtionship with him will blossom then!”


    Zoe was grinning so widely that her teeth looked like they might fall out. “That’s why we need to win


    Ada


    over from KS World!”


    Betty, meanwhile, had other ideas.


    She wasn’t going to help Jasper. They didn’t even share the same mother.


    Instead, she intended to use this opportunity to prove herself to their father and wrest control of the


    project from him.


    That would earn her father’s favor and help reconcile her mother’s rtionship with him. And Zoe


    would


    be the catalyst for that, Betty thought sneakily.


    “Well, tonight went to hell,” Zoe grumbled. “Jasper left, and my brother never showed up either …


    Screw


    him. I’m not going to talk to him when I go home!”


    “But I did see your brother earlier. He left before you saw him,” Betty suddenly said coldly.


    “What? When?”


    “When you were ying the piano, he was right there with my sister, Lauren. She’s really pushing him


    toward fame,” Betty remarked with a hint of bitterness.


    “Your sister? Your sister, that idiot?” Zoe was in shock, unable to believe what she’d just heard. She


    knew


    Lauren very well. They were even ssmates in the same girls’ school back then.


    “It’s over for me, Zoe,” Betty moaned. “Your brother seems to be in love with her already.”


    “In love?” Zoe rose from her seat, sshing her drink all over the counter. “That idiot doesn’t deserve


    my


    brother’s love!”


    Betty secretly cheered her on. However, on the surface, she continued miserably, “You didn’t see how


    caring and tender he was toward her. He bought a gown for her and even told her how he would only


    treat


    honestly-”


    She sighed again, the wine lowering her inhibitions. “I’m beginning to think that he’s just blind. He’s as


    blind as a fucking bat.”


    Zoe’s expression grew even more menacing. She sneered, “Are you standing up for her, Betty? Do you


    miss Alyssa being your sister-inw?”


    “What?” Realizing she had misspoken, Betty gave an awkward chuckle. “No, no, of course not. I’m


    analyzing the situation for you.


    “I don’t know why Jasper is behaving like this after the divorce. Is this what they mean by realizing how


    much someone means to you after you lose them?”


    Zoe gritted her teeth, a dark and obsessive need for possessing Jasper churning in her gut. “I don’t buy


    it. Jasper’s not in love with Alyssa Taylor! If he were, they wouldn’t be fucking divorced after three years


    of marriage! He’s just envious because she’s doing better without him!”


    She then twirled her hair around her fingers, saying, “Meanwhile, I have known Jasper for years.


    Alyssa could neverpare to me. I’m sure he still cares about me. He’s just blinded by that whore,


    Alyssa!”

    Betty grimaced but said nothing. Something was definitely wrong with Zoe, but she couldn’t say


    anything just yet. After all, she still needed Zoe’s help to marry Landon!


    “We need to find a way to get Ada on our side. Betty, we need to help Jasper win this. I’ll help you,”


    Zoe decided. Her bloodshot eyes narrowed as she recalled how Alyssa had given “Ragnarok” to Ada.


    Zoe added, “It’s just a fucking brooch. Alexa has way more designs than this. If she can get her hands


    on one, then I can too!”
