What did they have to do to change Winston''s mind, to stop the marriage between Tatiana and


    Jameson?


    Alyssa slowed her breathing and roughly ryed this night''s happening to Jasper. Naturally, she


    summarized the part about her fight with Winston.


    She downyed the serious points as she was afraid that he would worry and feel guilty.


    Jasper wrapped his muscr arms around her waist and furrowed his brows. "So, Mr. Taylor wants


    Tatiana to marry into the Schmidt family because you and I are together? Even if he prefers the


    Schmidts, this is just too sudden.”


    "It seems sudden, but it''s not."


    Alyssa shook her head dejectedly. Angry, she clutched his chest and said, "Actually, Winston is being


    crafty. He wasn''t happy about you and I being together previously.


    "I wouldn''t be surprised if he already had a secret discussion with Mr. Victor for me to marry into


    the Schmidt family.


    "After the horse racing event, I heard from Sean that there was news about Winston and Jameson


    bing close. It was likely part of the Schmidt Group''s preparation for the marriage.


    "They just hadn''t expected the Harpers toplicate things. Moreover, Sophia''s arrest must have


    messed up their ns.


    "Otherwise, ording to Winston''s aggressive personality, he would have made a public


    announcement about me marrying Jameson during the horse race event itself. He is definitely


    capable of doing so!"Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Jasper’s skin felt warm. It hurt a little from her wing at him, but it was a pleasurable type of pain.


    "Don’t worry, Lyse. Even if Mr. Taylor were to do that, do you think I will just sit back and watch while


    you be involved with that bastard, Jameson?"


    He then lifted her hand and kissed it. He looked at her with a fiery gaze and continued, "I will surely


    fight to get you back no matter the costs and consequences.”


    Alyssa didn''t think he would need to fight to get her back. She would always be his.


    She batted her long eyshes and replied, "But, it was also due to Zoe causing trouble that


    changed Winston''s opinion about you. Otherwise, he might have arranged for both Taty and me to


    marry into the Schmidt family and forced you to give up.


    "Hence, I''m sure Mr. Victor had said something to Winston to pressure him. And that influenced his


    decision to let Taty be the doormat. How abhorrent!"


    Jasper felt bad watching her being so enraged. "Lyse, as much as I don''t want to admit it, Jameson


    was quite adamant about his feelings for you. So, it doesn''t seem like he would marry your sister.


    "He cannot ept this marriage arrangement if he wants to have you. And, now that David has also


    be a crippled man, Mr. Taylor will not let Tatiana get married to him. This engagement might


    not even happen.”


    "Even so, once Jameson is provoked, he may go berserk. There''s nothing he wouldn''t do.”


    Alyssa leaned her head against Jasper''s chest and sighed. "Who knows if this is actually part of his


    n? If he were to ept the marriage, he could then pressure me indirectly.


    "He could make me feel extremely guilty so that I won''t be able to continue seeing you in peace.


    Even if he can''t take someone''s life, he''d still make sure that they''d suffer.”


    "Don’t panic, Lyse. I will face this together with you. We can think of something.”


    Right after he said that, thunder echoed, and lightning shed across the skies.


    A few secondster, it started to pour. Jasper promptly opened the car door, and they got into the


    back seat.


    It might have been because of the narrow space in the car that gave them a dopamine rush, leading


    to their arousal. Without having to say a word, they embraced one another and shared a passionate


    kiss—one that was more intense than the storm outside the window.


    Alyssa was captivated by the sound of Jasper''s deep, heavy breathing. She felt like she was in a


    trance from his kiss and ended up tugging at his necktie.


    Desire filled Jasper''s eyes. With his hands, he hooked the straps on her shoulders and let her silk


    strap pajamas slip down to her waist. The sight of her soft, lily-white skin made his world spin.


    "lyse ..."


    He couldn''t hold himself back any longer and leaned forward, pressing himself against her.


    A pair of intertwined shadows could be seen rocking back and forth through the hazy windows.


    The car felt confined, yet Alyssa was on cloud nine. Her face flushed red. It was as if she was about


    to melt under him.


    After making love, the heavy rain had also begun to slow.


    Alyssa''s hair was drenched in sweat, disheveled as she rxed in his arms.
