"It''s not a bad thing to cry. It''s better for you to let it all out than to keep everything bottled up inside,"


    Jasper responded.


    Not everyone in the world might understand her good intentions. But Jasper surely did.


    He gently pinched Alyssa''s face and said, "Let''s give time for both you and Taty to calm down.


    Tomorrow, we''ll spare some time to see Taty. Have a good chat with her. I''m sure that we cane up


    with a perfect strategy."


    Teary-eyed, Alyssa rubbed her eyes and said coquettishly, "I''m hungry. Make me something to eat."


    Jasper put his right hand on his chest and his left hand behind his back. He transformed into an elegant


    attendant and bowed respectfully.


    "On it, mydy."


    The next day, Jasper and Alyssa returned to Belbanks to see Tatiana.

    To their surprise, they learned that Tatiana hadn''t gone home at all. Instead, she had contacted L to


    say that she had some urgent matters to attend to at school. She informed her that she would be


    staying at the dorm these two days.


    Alyssa and Jasper looked at each other, feeling perplexed.


    Tatiana had already graduated. She had moved all her belongings back home. They couldn''t fathom


    any other reason that might necessitate her staying at her school.


    "What happened to Taty, Lyse? Did something happen?" L asked with an anxious expression on her


    face.


    "Everything is fine, L. Jasper and I were just thinking of taking Taty out to get some fresh air. I just


    didn''t expect her to be busy." Alyssa didn''t want L to worry. So, she could only answer in a


    roundabout manner.


    "Lyse, it would be great if you could take her out. Thank you very much."


    Concern overwhelmed L''s face. "Ever since David was released, Taty hasn''t been able to sleep. She


    didn''t even have much appetite. She has been saying that she''s fine, but I know she feels terrible


    inside."


    Upon hearing that, Alyssa really wanted to kick herself. She really regretted speaking so harshly to


    Tatiana the previous day.


    Beneath Tatiana''s serene expression, she was enduring a level of suffering she had never experienced


    before. As a victim, she was the one who neededfort and care.


    Instead, she was the one who ended up showing concern for Alyssa''s situation. It was too thoughtful of


    her.


    "Lyse, if you meet with Taty, please convince her on my behalf. She should stop splitting hairs." L


    spoke in a warm yet helpless voice, "Let bygones be bygones. We should be forward-looking people."


    It was already the evening by the time they left Heightsnew Vi.


    There was an inexplicable heaviness in Alyssa''s heart. She dialed Tatiana''s number on her phone. Her


    call was rejected after a few rings.


    Alyssa stared at the screen of her phone, which had turned dim. She started to panic. "Taty... Why


    would she hang up on me?"


    "Maybe she''s upied," Jasperforted her.


    "That can''t be. If she was busy, she would just let the phone ring. She wouldn''t hang up on me. This


    has never happened."


    The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. She grabbed Jasper''s arm and said, "I''m


    afraid, Jasper. Could it be that something happened to her?"


    "If you''re worried, we can return to Sna City now. I''ll have Xavier head over to Taty''s school to take a


    look first."


    The moment Jasper finished his sentence, Alyssa received a call from Sean.


    "Ms. Alyssa! Could you please help me to get in touch with Taty?"


    Sean''s voice sounded anxious and hoarse. "I have called her countless times sincest night but she


    hasn''t answered a single call!"
