Chapter 473
Jasper inhaled sharply. That hit Zoe where it hurt.
“Tyler might be from Yoarkley, but he understood the importance of respecting one’s
mentor. He’s my mentee, and he’ll never betray our trust for short-term gains,” Alyssa
said with a smirk.
She then added, “So, Ms. Harper, you made a mistake from the beginning. One shouldn’t
have
underestimated the noble character of a gentleman with one’s questionable values.”
It was a clear insult directed at Zoe.
Jasper wore a grin on his lips despite looking calm. Landon’s lips drooped as his face
looked clouded,
losing his composure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had braced himself for Alyssa’s straightforwardness but hadn’t expected it to sting so
deeply.
“Alyssa Taylor! You’re a sly, devious bitch!” Zoe was seeing red. She pointed a finger at
Alyssa, which only
highlighted her farcical behavior.
“Y-You acted like you didn’t know I met with Tyler. You knew Betty would give Ada Kingsley
that necklace,
but you said nothing until the charity auction. Was that to humiliate her?
“Alyssa, how could you be so wicked? Must you ruin every person who was in your way?”
As Zoe spoke,
she started weeping as if she was the victim.
“What else should I do? I can’t be keeping them around.” Alyssa rolled her eyes in
annoyance.
“You-” Zoe was too angry to speak. Alyssa was impudent. How dare she speak recklessly
in Landon and
Jasper’s presence? She did not seem to mind what men think about her. 1
“Ms. Harper, you’re here to apologize, not to point fingers. Is it difficult to admit you’re
wrong?”
After a pause, Jasper looked squarely at Alyssa while addressing Zoe, “Even if Javier did
not teach Betty a lesson, I would have done so. Even if Landon did not force you to come
here, I would have done so. The result is the same. Do you have anything else to say?”
Alyssa looked up with a complicated expression. Jasper did not go easy on Zoe. Anyway, it
was none of her business.
“Jasper …” Zoe was heartbroken and furious as tears streamed down her face. Jasper was
no longer the gentle guy with a smile who’d stroll in the park with her, hand-in-hand.
He had completely lost himself after being bewitched by Alyssa!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hey, are you going to apologize or not?” Alyssa lost her patience and was ready to leave.
“Zoe, apologize to Ms. Alyssa!” Landon urged.
“I’m sorry…” Zoe hissed through gritted teeth in an almost inaudible voice.
“Louder. I can’t hear you,” demanded Alyssa with a frown.
“Sorry!” Just as Zoe spoke, Landon approached her and forced her to bend over and bow
to Alyssa.
She couldn’t fight Landon and was forced to nod to Alyssa. She was torn by the grave
humiliation, and she vowed to take her revenge.
“Sean,” Alyssa called out to Sean as she rose.
“Yes, Ms. Alyssa,” he answered.
“I heard Mr. Harper said he’d compensate me for the damages caused by Ms. Harper’s
actions on behalf
of the Harper Group. Please itemize the compensation for infringement and psychological
distress and present them to Mr. Harper.”
