Alyssa found herself pondering the reasons behind Jasper’s choice to approach her now to address


    the past.


    She had never sought his apologies, yet he remained oblivious to her true desires.


    Alyssa felt a deep sense of disappointment and shame that permeated her, causing her to quiver with


    anger.


    While she typically wasn’t one to easily shed tears, her tears streamed down involuntarily now. It was


    as if her tear ducts had suddenly given way.


    Jameson had never seen Alyssa lose control of her emotions like this.


    Jasper had almost destroyed the girl who used to be lively, confident, and proud.


    “Lyse, don’t cry. Please don’t cry…


    Ignoring the presence of others, Jameson opened his arms and gently enveloped the emotionally


    distraught Alyssa in an embrace.


    Alyssa’s whole body went limp. Her thoughts were hazy, and she leaned her forehead on Jameson’s


    shoulder.


    Before long, her tears had soaked his shoulder.


    Jameson’s heart raced, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.


    At this moment, he experienced an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and happiness. He had never

    The scene before Jasper dealt a devastating blow to his heart.


    As a freezing chill coursed through his body, he took a few steps back.


    “Jasper, aren’t you leaving yet?”


    Jameson patted Alyssa as he mocked Jasper, “If you genuinely regret what happened to Lyse, you


    should heed her wishes and vanish from her life entirely.”


    He continued, “Your sole purpose seems to be repeatedly opening Lyse’s emotional wounds. She has


    managed to break free from her struggles. Why do you persist in reminding her of the time,


    loved you so desperately, and miserably?”


    Jasper didn’t know how he had walked out of the ward.


    His bruised forehead turned crimson, entuating the paleness of his face..


    Hecked the courage to seek out Landon now. He just wanted to find a secluded ce and hide for a


    while.


    Jasper entered the stairwell with heavy and sluggish steps.


    His towering figure gradually stooped while leaning against the wall. His entire body seemed on the


    verge of copsing.


    Suddenly, the door in the stairwell swung open.


    A beam of light illuminated Jasper’s sweat-covered face. He took a sharp breath, quickly regaining his


    composure, and hid the disarray surrounding him.


    “Why haven’t you left? Your audacity knows no bounds.”


    Jameson confronted him with a cold, proud, and mocking stare.


    “You’re not willing to let go even till now? You should have witnessed what just happened. I’m the one


    Lyse needs.”


    He continued, “Yet, I should express my gratitude to you. Without your heartless actions, Lyse might


    not have been able to give you up and ept me.”


    Jasper took a deep breath, refusing to say a word to him. Just seeing him made him feel disgusted.


    If it were in the past, he would have already fought this man who stole his beloved from him.


    But now, he doubted if he still held the right to do so.


    Just as Jasper was walking past Jameson with a nk expression, Jameson suddenly asked coldly.


    “Why did you apologize to Lyse? What have you done to her two years ago?”


    Jasper’s heavy footsteps came to a halt, and he closed his eyes, the bitterness within them apparent.


    What came to his mind was that night when they revealed their bodies to each other.


    His lips passionately grazed her earlobe, and it turned red as if it were oozing blood. He mur repeatedly
