Chapter 797
Alyssa could see how Jameson slowly lowered his head into his arms, only revealing his bright eyes.
Those eyes conveyed a lonely emotion, as if he were some wounded animal. Alyssa recalled how Jameson had this very same
look in his eyes 15 years ago when Victor punished him by making him stand outside in the pouring rain.
“Fuck me. When did he arrive here? There wasn’t a sound at all. What is he? A ghost?” Cyrus shivered. chills shooting up his
spine.
Jonah glanced at Jameson, then turned back to Alyssa. “Did he follow you over to the Becketts place?”
Alyssa hummed in acknowledgment.
Just then, Jameson’s car engine revved up. It swiftly U-turned back the way he came, disappearing into the night.
“Huh? Is he leaving just like that?” Cyrus frowned. “Why are all the people who try to court you so strange.
Lyse? From jackass-of-the-year to stalker supreme. How could we not be worried about your safety when
you’re out alone now, Lyse?”
“Let’s get to the point here.” Alyssa didn’t want to talk about Jameson any longer. She said solemnly,
What did you find out about Ronald, Cyrus? Is he still keeping quiet?”
Cyrus sighed in exasperation. “I’m afraid I need more time. That bastard’s more loyal than we thought. He
really is so devoted to Sophia that you’d think they were married.”
“I’ve actually anticipated that he wouldn’t give up so easily. He’s already gone and killed for Sophia, after
all.” Alyssa crossed her arms around her chest. Her face was as cold as ice.
“That’s why I want you to interrogate him according to my instructions. It will weaken his resolve and
allow us to deal the killing blow right when he’s vulnerable. We’ll make his love for Sophia crumble for
good,” she said.
“What do you want us to do, Lyse? We’ll do as you say!” Cyrus eagerly rubbed his hands together,
determined to make Sophia and Ronald pay.
“Ronald’s testimonial for Sophia’s crime won’t be enough.” Alyssa balled her hands into fists, snarling, Sophia’s hurt Lyla so
much and even made her lose her pride. I’m going to make sure she gets punished a
millionfold!”
“Lyse, Cyrus, I think there’s more to uncover about Ronald and Sophia’s relationship.” Jonah’s eyes were filled with cold reason
as he continued, “Sophia must’ve told Ronald to attack Lyla on a whim.

“If one call from her could make him take action without hesitation, it goes to show just how close they’ve remained for all these
years. She likely had him take care of all her dirty deeds for her, too.”
“Right? Maybe Sophia has had children with him, too. What a cuck Javier Beckett must be!” Cyrus sneered.
Alyssa treated the statement as a joke, yet couldn’t help but wonder if the truth really was what Cyrus suggested. If that truly was
the case, then Sophia could be ruined for life!
But would someone so proud and as vain as Sophia, who treasured her title as Mrs. Beckett, really get together with a destitute
and lowly supporting actor like Ronald?
“Hmph. If they really did have children, I hope it’s Betty. That way, Ms. Alyssa can finally get her revenge on that evil duo, and
they can leave the Beckett family for good!” Sean gritted out.
Alyssa thought about some things before asking gently, “Jonah, has Axel contacted you lately? Does he know when Julien will
be here in the city?”
“Axel did call. He said he’s still planning things out with the Lovelace family. He’ll try to have Julien come
over ASAP,” Jonah said.
He then patted his sister’s shoulder, saying, “Don’t worry. I’m still around. I’ll get you whatever you need,
even if it means walking through the fires of hell.”
“I’m here too! I’ll help you!” Cyrus raised his hand excitedly.
“You have me as well, Ms. Alyssa.” Sean shot her a warm smile.
Alyssa felt touched. She leaned into Jonah’s shoulder, suddenly feeling much more at ease than before.
