Chapter 1117

Even as Zoe’s grandfather, Cornelius admitted that Alyssa was a fine. young lady with wits

and guts. If only Landon had considered dating. Alyssa, Cornelius would have considered

giving his blessing.

“Dad, Lyla, Jonah, time’s running out. I’ll go change.” With that, Alyssa coolly waved at her

family and left the seat with Neil.

“Lyse, be careful!” Lyla called out to her worriedly.

Alyssa turned around and briefly gestured “okay” at her.

“Fine. Since she can’t sit still even for a minute, she can join the race,” Winston grumbled.

He was worried for Alyssa but refused to openly display his emotions. At the same time,

Jasper’s passionate gaze followed Alyssa until she vanished from sight.

“Surprised, aren’t you? You probably didn’t know Lyse is good at horse. riding.” Jameson

approached him with a smile, causing him to frown.

men

The two good-looking stood side-by-side like something out of a painting. One wouldn’t

have known that they were archenemies.

“Lyse is God’s gift to me,” Jasper declared. “Since she’s a gift, she always has surprises in

store for me.”

“Pfft. Quit it. Just admit that you don’t know her well enough. Why would you cover it up

and protect your ego by wording it nicely?”

Jasper’s chest tightened as he rolled his fist.

Jameson added, “I spent my childhood with Lyse. After all we went through, we knew each

you that sent Inigo Montoye to assassinate Jonah on Shelland Island?”

“Jasper Beckett, do not provoke me.” Despite smiling, Jameson

reeked of danger. “I’ll make you burn in hell.

Jasper carried an imposing air as he snickered. “I’d like to see what would happen if I

provoked a beast like you. I look forward to knowing.

alone in the corridor outside the lounge, she started smoking when no one was around.

From the way she smoked, one could tell she was a long-term smoker.

“Aw, look at what Alyssa has done to our poor Zoe. She’s bullied your into smoking and

drinking away the sadness!” Cackling, Betty approached Zoe, lifting her bulky dress while

walking.

“I’ll never get bullied by Alyssa. I just can’t be bothered,” Zoe replied. with a squint as she

furiously took a drag.

Betty was already tired of Zoe’s self-aggrandizing manner and didn’t. bother to counter.

Instead, she got a cigarette from Zoe and started smoking.

Zoe seethed with greed, “No matter what game that bitch is playing, Jasper is mine and

mine only. I will be the one and only Mrs. Beckett!”
