Some were distraught and lost, while others remained sprightly and kicking.
Jameson had acted as if he''d just heard the news and hurried over to Heightsnew Vi. He was
currently sitting anxiously in the living room.
"Tsk. We only just sent Jasper away, yet now Jameson hase crawling all the way back here! What
did our baby sister do to deserve this? What bad karma did she rue?"
Jonah and Ss were looking downstairs from the second-floornding. Ss was so angry he was
grinding his teeth together.
Jonah coldly eyed Jameson''s face, which had had its fill of putting up a dramatic show. His hand
around the railing was so tense his veins were bulging.
"He didn''t show up at the event even though he''s his family''s favorite right now. Yet here he is, showing
up first thing the moment something happens to Lyse.
"Hmph! Based on my years of experience as a prosecutor, I know he definitely has something to do
with what happened earlier tonight. He probably worked together with Zoe and used her as a pawn!"
Ss hissed.
"Your analysis isn''t too different from mine. Jameson is a very cunning man who''s very skilled in using
others to carry out his dirty work," Jonah said.
Jonah''s cold eyes were fixed on Jameson''s face. "He''s already nned out his escape route before
putting his n into motion. I fear he''s already removed every trace of himself from the picture.
"Otherwise, he wouldn''t havee all over here without fear. He probably thinks he has nothing to
worry about anymore."
"Damn it! We''ve let a fox into our nest now!" Ss huffed angrily. "You, me, and the other boys
Just then, Winston and L came downstairs to meet Jameson, apanied by Neil.
"Uncle Winston, Madam L," Jameson got up to greet them. His respectful and gentle demeanor was
the kind elders liked to see the most in youngsters.
"My daughter is feeling unwell, Jameson, so she won''t be able to join US," L spoke up on behalf of
Winston, seeing how ill he looked. "Plus, I''m sure you know what happened during tonight''s event. We
really aren''t in the mood to wee any guests, so please leave."
Jameson''s gaze darkened slightly after L said that. His fingers clenched lightly, but he still patiently
said, "I couldn''t rest well after hearing about Lyse''s condition, so I rushed over to see her.
"Don''t worry, Uncle Winston. I know some very good doctors from Mosgravia, all world-renowned
professionals. If the doctors in the country can''t do anything to help, I can ask the doctors from
Mosgravia toe here to Belbanks to help Lyse!" "Jameson," Winston suddenly spoke up. "I
appreciate your kind gesture. But you''re Taty''s fiance now. Even though you grew up with Lyse and
have a close rtionship with her, you should now direct your concern to Taty. It''s time you distance
yourself from Lyse."
Jameson was shocked. His face even paled somewhat.

"Haha! Serves him right!" Ss snickered. "He plotted out everything yet still couldn''t reach Lyse in the
end. Now his n is going to bust because his own n is biting himself in the ass!"
"Uncle Winston, the person I wanted to marry has always been Lyse! I''ve never wanted to marry
anyone else!" Jameson eximed passionately, no longer hiding his true desire.
L was stunned. Her lips pulled thin awkwardly.
"What did you just say?" Winston asked, his brows knitting together. "Jameson, all my daughters are
fine young women, not items for you to negotiate and purchase as you please. We agreed you''d marry
Taty, so Taty it is. Never mention your matter with Lyse ever again!"
"You know just how true my love for Lyse is, Uncle Winston. The heavens itself is my witness."
Jameson might be a cunning, devious, lying cheat, but his love for Alyssa was real. The sincerity of the
love in his eyes was unmistakable. "I never had a choice about who I was going to marry in this
arranged marriage! I only stayed out of the way because I thought Lyse had found happiness. But do
you still think Jasper is the best choice for Lyse right now?"
Winston''s breath was punched out of his lungs. Pain filled his lungs when he recalled how his daughter
could never be a mother again.
"I wasn''t able to protect Lyse back then while she suffered endlessly. I swear to protect only her from
now on. rd never find fault or hurt her like Jasper Beckett has done," Jameson said.
Jameson''s eyes were reddened with emotion as he begged, "Please, Uncle Winston ... let me marry
Lyse. I''ll never let what happened to Lyse happen again!"
"Hmph! You should keep on dreaming!"
When Jameson saw Jonah and Ss walking downstairs, his eyes glinted dangerously. His teeth
locked together angrily.
"Don''t be fooled by him, Dad! He''s not a good person whatsoever!"
