"Is Dad out of his mind? What does Simon''s matter have to do with Sean? I''m going to confront him!"


    Alyssa angrily mmed the table, but L stopped her.


    "Don''t, Lyse. This has nothing to do with you. You''d better not get yourself involved. It might anger your


    father."


    "Sean is an important friend, and Taty is my sister. How can I not care? I must get involved!" Alyssa


    had endured enough opposition to her own love and didn''t want Tatiana to experience the same thing.


    Besides, Tatiana was the most beloved daughter of the Taylor family. It was already difficult for her to


    love a man. Sean was just a secretary, and Tatiana was timid and indecisive. Their love might be like a


    boat in a storm, unable to withstand the huge waves of opposition from her family.


    "Lyse, don''t be stubborn." Mandy also tried to stop her.


    "Your dad is just starting to change his views on Jasper, and things are getting a bit better for both of


    you. Provoking your dad now won''t help. He''s petty, and he might take it out on Jasper."


    "Exactly, and Taty is L''s daughter. Lyse, it''s not suitable for you to intervene," Colene added,


    persuading Alyssa.


    Alyssa sighed in frustration and finished another bowl of soup to calm down.


    L went downstairs to meet Tatiana, and Alyssa followed suit.


    In the living room, Sean and Tatiana sat on the couch, shoulder to shoulder. They gazed at each other


    affectionately, fingers tightly entwined, exuding sweet intimacy.


    Alyssa couldn''t help but feel delighted. Her face beamed with a smile.


    "Sean, Taty, long time no see."


    The couple stood up. Tatiana shyly lowered her eyes and sweetly asked, "Lyse, how are you? Are your


    injuries better?"


    "I''m fine now. Seeing you both makes everything better."


    "Madam L, Ms. Alyssa," Sean respectfully greeted, showing his gentlemanly and courteous side.


    Even though he was now dating the Taylor family''s daughter, he never forgot his status.


    "Sean, how''s your recovery going?" Alyssa asked with concern.


    "I''ve fully recovered. Thanks for your concern, Ms. Alyssa."


    Though he was speaking to Alyssa his affectionate eyes had never left Tatiana''s blushing and beautiful


    face.


    "Since you''re here, let''s—"


    "Taty, go upstairs. I want to talk privately with Mr. Sean," L said calmly, interrupting Alyssa.


    Tatiana cast a worried nce at Sean and then went upstairs.


    Sean''s passionate gaze followed his beloved as she left.


    Right after that, L''s tone turned cold. "Mr. Sean, it''s time for you to know Winston''s stance on your

    rtionship. He doesn''t support the two of you being together. Therefore, I''m sorry, but I won''t support


    it either."


    Alyssa was stunned. She never expected the usually gentle L to be so assertive in her child''s


    marriage.


    "Madam L, I truly love Taty."


    Sean froze in ce. His eyes reflected a heartbreaking glimmer, and his slightly hoarse voice trembled.


    "Please believe me. Please give me a chance to prove my love for Taty."


    Frowning, L shook her head. "Mr. Sean, you''ve beening here since you were a teen. I''ve


    watched you grow up. I know your character very well. I''ve never doubted your feelings for Taty."
