Chapter 528
“My dad once told me that a perfect relationship has to be smooth from the start. In our
three years of
marriage, I gave up myself to prop you up. I kept the relationship by compromising.
What’s the point of
keeping this broken relationship? Why would I hurt myself by giving you a second
chance?”
Alyssa’s words were piercing and damning. Jasper refused to lose her and reached out to
hold her hand,
but she dodged the move.
He panted heavily and declared, “I swear I will not treat you like I did in the past. You don’t
even have to
do anything. I’ll pursue you.”
Her heart raced as she went through a whirlwind of emotions. Her palms grew sweaty, her
breathing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbecame erratic, and her heart raced in all directions.
She scoffed at his suggestion. “You once said I was a shameless and deceitful woman. I’m
not a prim
and proper lady, unlike Liana Gardner. Why would you fall for me?”
She sniffled and added, “Besides, I’m no longer the gullible and weak Alice White. Men are
lining up for
1. Do you think you stand any chance after being blacklisted as a massive jerk?”
“Alyssa, I really-”
“Stop it. I don’t want to hear one more word,” she interrupted, covering her ears and
leaving the room
hastily. “I’ll consider your words today as nonsense. I’m treating your wounds only
because I feel bad for
you. We will part ways once you’ve recovered.”
With that, she slammed the door shut.
Jasper’s eyes were bloodshot. His hands, suspended in mid-air, finally dropped.
He mumbled, “But I truly love you.”
After leaving Jasper’s room, Alyssa met with Xavier instead of going home. She wanted to
obtain more
information about Jasper’s condition. She also took the body checkup reports and patient
files to review
later at home.
She was concerned because she realized that Jasper was in a bad condition after
performing a body
checkup on him just now. He might suffer from chronic side effects if his wounds were not
taken care of.
Sean drove the Taylor siblings to Belbanks in their Rolls-Royce. Liam took the second
passenger seat
while Jonah sat in the back with his arm draped around Alyssa’s shoulder.

Throughout the journey, Alyssa tightly clutched Jasper’s patient profiles and scan results.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe rested her head on Jonah’s shoulder and repeatedly sighed, obviously in low spirits.
“What’s going on, Lyse? You seem upset,” Jonah inquired and gently caressed her cheek.
“Is Jasper dying?
She was speechless at his speculation. Liam turned around with a frown and said, “Oh,
that would be
good news. Why would you feel upset?”
Again, she was dumbfounded.
“Liam, Lyse is a thoughtful and kind soul. She’ll feel bad if something happens to Jasper
because he has
saved her life,” Jonah remarked with a sigh.
Liam seethed but did not comment more.
“Jasper is severely injured, but he’s no longer in critical condition because he received
timely treatment.”
“That’s great news. Why are you upset, then?” Jonah sounded puzzled.
She replied, “It’s not a big deal.” After a pause, she admitted, “Jasper said he wanted to
pursue me.”
