When Alyssa opened the lid of the food containers, her eyes widened at the array of Belbanks


    delicacies.


    The ting was immacte, and the food was both aromatic and delicious. To her surprise, those were


    all her favorite dishes at home. Her stomach rumbled.


    “I heard that Jasper Beckett sent his people to buy the food from Belbanks at 5:00 am. The containers


    are


    insted, so the food is still hot,” Sean exined robotically as heid out the breakfast.


    He was well aware that Jasper had made a move to pursue Alyssa. Sean had been in love with Alyssa


    and did not want to interfere in her love life, but he didn’t want her to date Jasper.


    “Is he crazy? Nobody wanted him to do that!” Despite herints, she couldn’t help but shove a


    hashbrown into her mouth and chew away happily.


    Sean smiled wryly at her reaction.


    Suddenly, they heard a raspy voice that almost sent Alyssa choking on her food.


    “Ms. Alyssa, is the food delicious?”


    She coughed violently and pressed a hand against her chest.


    “Ms. Alyssa, are you okay?” Sean panicked and quickly patted her on the back.


    Jasper was enraged by Sean touching Alyssa on the back. He knew there was nothing between Alyssa


    and Sean, but he was green with envy nheless.


    Frowning, he was about to approach Alyssa when she marched up to him. She confronted him


    furiously,


    What happenedst night? How did I end up in that bed?”


    “I moved you to the bed. It is ufortable sleeping on the couch,” he answered. Due to their


    proximity,


    she sensed his hot breath tickling her forehead. It felt rather intimate.


    “Nobody asked you to do so! You’re just a busybody.” She red into his eyes, that was filled with a


    doting look. Then, she clenched her fists.


    “I’ll always be a busybody when it concerns you,” he said sincerely. There was no hint of flirting in his


    tone.


    Paired with his enchanting eyes, he could make any woman fall for him.


    “Look, you will not touch me no matter what you do for me. Save the trouble,” she retorted.


    Suddenly, she caught some details on his outfit from a casual nce.


    He was dressed in a custom navy striped suit and wore a tie that was a gift from her. He even sported


    apel pin that she gave him, Her eyes wavered at his choice of attire.


    “Are you getting yourself discharged soon?”


    “Yes,” he openly admitted.


    “That won’t do. You’re not well enough to be discharged.”


    “So, will you stay by my side until I’m well enough to leave the hospital?” he wondered with a grin.


    “You’re delusional!” She glowered at him. Maybe she had been too easy on him.


    “That’s why I do not want to be kept a prisoner in the hospital. And I want to see you,” he said to her.


    He


    had a rebellious yet affectionate look in his eyes.


    His childlike demeanor caught her off guard, and she momentarily forgot to deliver hereback.


    “Lyse!” Jonah and Liam showed up at the door, looking smart and stunning.


    “Jonah! Liam!” Alyssa immediately left Jasper behind and ran toward her brothers.


    Seeing that, Jasper frowned and puffed his chest with a hint ofpetitiveness in his eyes.
