Chapter 301
“I’ve asked Liana to leave. She will notbother me anymore.” Jasper stared into Alyssa’s
unfeeling eyes and swallowed hard.
“Is that so? Congratulations, then. At leastone good thing came out of tonight’s debacle.
You got rid of a trouble.” Alyssa flashed him a sarcastic smile, like a proud and thorny rose.
She continued, “I know you are an expert at wrapping up romantic relationships. I wonder
if Ms. Gardner has received her 20 million dollars and a villa?”
Jasper felt as though he was physically struck by the flash of purplish lightning outside the
window. His shoulders were trembling, and his chest was numb from the pain.
He was again reminded of the cruel scene where he threw the divorce papers at
Alyssa. He stubbornly wanted to escape from the contract marriage without thinking about
the hurt he had inflicted on her.
His action almost destroyed her pride and ego.
The tear-stained divorce paper remained tucked away in his headboard storage.
He was afraid to picture Alyssa’s heartbreak on that day when she signed the paper alone
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtafter he abandoned her for Liana like a jerk.
He felt like he was stabbed in the throat, and his heart almost shattered into pieces. He
might have been wronged by many in his life, but Alyssa was not one of them—loving him
was not wrong.
Even if he did not love her in their marriage, he shouldn’t have disregarded her feelings
and broken her precious heart.
There was no way of piecing her shattered heart back.
“Mr. Gorham told me you saved Grandpain the golden hour through acupuncture. Thank
you,” he croaked.
“You don’t have to. He’s my grandpa, too.Now, please make way for me.” Looking down at
the floor, she refused to engage with him and decided to leave. However, he stood in her
way and towered over her.
“Don’t stand in people’s way. Where areyour manners?” She gritted her teeth and flared
up.
“Alyssa, I want to make it up to you.”Jasper fixed his burning gaze on her.”Tell me, what
can I do to make it up to you?”
“Are you sick in the mind? Why don’t youget your brains checked since you’re at the
hospital?” Smiling with furrowed brows, she felt that his words were an affront.
“I was wrong to hurt you.”
“Stop.”She irritatedly gestured.”Jasper,please stop apologizing to me. I’m sick of
hearing your apology.
“By the way, I have gotten over it. Youwere not in the wrong for loving Liana and wanting
to marry her. You were only being loyal to the true love of your life and did nothing wrong
from the start. It was me who fell in love with the wrong man.
“Anyway, I’d only make that mistakeonce. I v ow never to trip over the same stone twice.”
Jasper’s eyes reddened as he curled his shaking fists. He was shamed and crucified by her
pointed remarks.
Indeed, the two of them fell in love with the wrong person. Alyss a learned her lesson and
decided to let go and live her life. In contrast, he sank deeper into remorse and guilt over
his sins.

Alyssa turned around when she heard someone calling her name. She saw Jonah and Silas
walking to her from the other
end of the corridor.
“Jonah! Silas!” The sorrows in her eyeswere gone in an instant. She knocked aside the
frozen Jasper and flung herself into the embrace of her brothers.
“I’m hungry! Jonah, can you make supperfor me at home?” She held onto Jonah’s arm and
pouted.
“Me too! I’m hungry. Please feed me!”Silas mimicked her action and held onto Jonah’s
other arm. They were transported back to their childhood at that moment.
“Fine. I’ll stuff you little rascals with foodwhen we get home.”Jonah smiled dotingly at his
two siblings.
Meanwhile, Jasper watched helplessly as the Taylor siblings vanished from the corridor and
out of his sight. His world was flooded with loneliness, pain, and bitterness.
After leaving him, she was showered with love from others around her. On the
contrary, he felt like a shell of himself after leaving her.
