"Is there no need to sign an agreement? Ms. Alyssa, are you sure?" rissa stared at Alyssa in shock.


    "Aren''t you worried that I would change my mind after the transnt and refuse to help you out? I


    thought you businesspeople always dismissed oral agreements and emphasized the importance of


    putting everything down in ck and white."


    "I''m doing this to show you that you always have a choice, regardless of the deal we have struck."


    Alyssa shed a faint smile, looking as calming and reassuring as ever. "If you sign the agreement,


    you''ll turn this into a formal deal. If you don''t, you can think of it as a battle to avenge your family.


    "I will not me you if you choose to return to the Schmidt family under pressure after the transnt


    surgery. As a doctor, my priority is saving lives. Not only that, as General Sparks was a great mentor to


    my brother, I''ll do this to return his favor on my brother''s behalf."


    Even as an outsider, Jasper felt awestruck by Alyssa''s remarks and marveled at Alyssa''s grace and


    elegance.


    The emotional impact on rissa was understandably greater. At that moment, rissa''s pent-up


    anger, frustration, grievance, and pain transformed into tears that rolled down her cheeks. She threw


    herself into Alyssa''s arms and finally cried her heart out after fighting to hold back her emotions.


    Jasper had not let go of Alyssa''s waist on their way home from hospital. They sat in silence as they


    walked back to the car. She finally rxed when they entered the car and leaned softly on his firm and


    warm chest.


    She rested her forehead on his broad shoulder and started weeping quietly. His breathing grew heavy


    at the sounds of her quiet sobs. He gently caressed her back, feeling emotional and touched.


    "My darling," he called out dotingly.


    Then, he nibbled her ear. He said, "Why are you bing a crybaby by the day? You were once a


    strong career woman."


    "Pfft! I didn''t cry in public, okay? I only cry when I''m with you. Anything wrong with that?" She pouted


    and wiped away her tears with his tie. "It''s like how Elizabeth Bet only kicks up a fuss when she''s


    with Mr. Darcy."

    "Of course you can." He breathed heavily by her ear, his voice sending a thrill of excitement through


    her. "However, you must remember that you can only cry when you''re with me."


    She proudly scoffed but obediently wriggled into his embrace nevertheless. "I can''t believe I cried over


    rissa''s matters. Jasper, you must see me as weak and dumb..." "You''re not. You''re the smartest in


    the world." Jasper ran out of adjectives topliment her, so he sighed helplessly and added, "Lyse,


    you''re too kind."


    In reality, Alyssa had prepared an agreement, but she softened when she saw from afar rissa crying


    helplessly over her inability to save Oscar. The scene reminded her of Winston, who had been gravely


    ill and bedridden not long ago.


    Therefore, she decided to put aside her calctions and help out rissa. That was it.


    "Even if rissa turns against us, that''s fine. I have ways of dealing with Josh Schmidt," Jasper stated


    with a frown. "But three days is a little rushed to find a surgeon, who is both highlypetent and


    avable for surgery, to perform Oscar Sparks'' kidney transnt."


    "Hey, did you forget that I''m a brilliant surgeon, too?" She ced a hand on her waist and made a


    victory sign with another. "Dr. White on a mission!"


    Jasper was taken aback. Attracted to her adorable demeanor, he leaned forward to kiss her on the lips,


    only to be interrupted by an untimely call from Xavier.


    "What''s up, Xavier?" Jasper asked in a raspy voice.


    His fingertips were stained by Alyssa''s lipstick, which he wiped off from the corner of her lips.
