Renee hid in the car, sobbing. Her eyeliner and mascara were smudged. She looked utterly pitiful.


    "Enough! What are you crying for? Look at you, so pathetic!" Dominic was furious.


    "I made such a fool of myself in front of so many people. What''s wrong with shedding a few tears?"


    Renee miserably wiped her tears. "Mr. Beckett is really too much. I fell right in front of him. Shouldn''t he


    help me?


    How could he turn a blind eye?


    "He can only see that bitch, Alyssa! His soul is with her!"


    When Dominic recalled Jasper''s intense gaze and brazen stare at Alyssa, he was infuriated.


    "Dad, Mr. Beckett still has feelings for Alyssa. What should I do?" Renee asked tearfully.


    "What feelings? They wouldn''t have gotten divorced if he truly had feelings for her. If they''re divorced, it


    means he


    couldn''t go on being married to her even for a day."


    Dominic sighed, his gaze dark. "Right now, if you want to get close to Jasper, Alyssa isn''t the only


    obstacle. There''s


    also that girl from the Harper family."


    Renee thought of Zoe and found it quite troublesome.


    Zoe and Jasper''s recent hotel rendezvous caused quite a stir. Now, rumors of an alliance between the


    Harper and


    Beckett families were rampant.


    But she felt that the immature Zoe wasn''t worth worrying about.


    It was Alyssa who felt like a looming threat, giving her a scalp-tingling sense of danger.


    "Yeah ... That girl from the Harper family ..."


    Renee sniffled. "Mr. Beckett is really something. I can understand that he likes Alyssa. But why is he


    interested in


    Zoe? Am I inferior to that girl?"


    "You''re usually quite clever, but how did you be so confused when ites to important matters?"


    Dominic disdainfully clicked his tongue. "Jasper is not interested in Zoe. The hotel meeting might be


    some scheme


    of hers, aiming to marry Jasper and be the wife of the Beckett Group''s president.


    "If Jasper really had feelings for that Harper girl, why hasn''t there been an official announcement or


    deration? I


    doubt this alliance will go through."


    Renee was enlightened by these words.


    She had always listened to her father and knew that he was full of ideas. Otherwise, in the face of

    dominance, he would have had no ce to stand long ago.


    "If the Harper family can use schemes, why can''t we? Right now, it''s better to seize the opportunity


    when it''s


    avable."


    Dominic narrowed his eyes in deep thought.


    Renee hurriedly asked, "Dad, what do you mean?"


    "Renee, as the saying goes, ''No pain, no gain.'' You have to be shameless to get a wealthy husband."
