"Well done." Alyssa pecked Jasper''s cheek, and the sound was loud.
Being rewarded again, Jasper closed his eyes contentedly. "There''s one more thing. There''s movement
on the Schmidt family''s side."
"Oh? What did they do?" Alyssa instantly became alert.
"They''re nning to hold a press conference to rify what happened at the venuest time."
"rify? I think it''s more like distancing themselves." Alyssa chuckled and drew a heart on Jasper''s
chest.
"Timothy has fallen. It''s not just a talent groomed by the Schmidt family that has been ruined. They''re
all on edge, fearing repercussions from above."
Jasper''s eyes shed with a hint of coldness. "To show sincerity, Schmidt Group will definitely hold a
press conference as quickly as possible. It should be in the next two days."
"Hmph! Although that corrupt Timothy is unforgivable, the Schmidts'' two-faced demeanor is truly
hateful."
"Don''t worry, Lyse. I said I would avenge Taty. I won''t easily give up. If they hurt you or any of your
family even a bit, I''ll make them pay a painful price." Jasper fiercely gritted his teeth.
As Alyssa listened to his powerful heartbeat, a smile graced her face.
She loved Jasper''s strong sense of justice and his upright and fearless personality. They shared the
same values, both having apassionate heart.
Jasper held Alyssa''s delicate hand and touched her numb little finger.
A sudden sorrow filled his chest, and he choked up. "Lyse, what happened to your little finger? Can you
tell me?"
"It''s nothing. I identally hurt it while climbing a tree when I was little. It''s not a big deal."
Alyssa smiled, trying to make her smile look rxed and natural. "It''s just a little finger. It doesn''t affect
my work or life.
"I''m already an adult. You don''t have to be so nervous around me. Rx. Our days ahead are still long.
Seeing you this tense, I''m going to get a heart attack sooner orter."

"Because it''s about you." Jasper lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Because it was about you,
even the slightest details struck a chord with me and lingered in my mind."
"Jasper, I know you''ve been regretful and guilty about what happened before, even feeling inferior in
front of me. But I don''t like you being like this."
Alyssa''s heartache was almost overwhelming as she gently stroked his face.
"I know how ufortable it is to feel self-conscious in front of someone you love. So, I don''t want you
to consume yourself with self-doubt and torture yourself.
"We''ve finallye together, and I hope... we can have a healthy rtionship, just like ordinary people,
simple and pure."
Once upon a time, in order to please Jasper and make him fall in love with her, she did everything she
could.
The feeling was so bad that she would wake up crying from her dreams.
She loved him, so she didn''t want him to go down the same path.
Jasper understood her intentions. A pang of pain shot through his heart. He propped himself up on her
side and sealed her lips again.
It was another passionate encounter, sometimes fierce, sometimes gentle.
Alyssa was a little dizzy, and she felt weak all over. It was as if she had drifted into the clouds.
"Lyse, after dealing with Schmidt Group, let''s go to Swizo."
Jasper whispered in her ear, "Let''s go on a nice trip. You wanted to see the snowy mountains, right? I''ll
go with you."
Alyssa''s eyshes trembled, and she agreed softly. "Okay."
She was also in the medical field and knew that there was a renowned gynecology professor in Swizo.
Although Jasper treated her very well, he was not the kind of person who soughtfort and ease. He
surely wasn''t the romantic kind, either. His sudden proposal to go on a trip must have a purpose.
He wanted to take her to see a doctor. Even if there was no hope, he had wanted to try.
Alyssa understood his intentions and also understood his feelings. If this could make him feel a little
better, she wouldn''t stop him.
