Chapter 650
“But do hurry. The célebration is about to begin.”
The door slammed shut behind Alyssa and the others.
Ten minutes later, Josh and Morgan walked out of the hall. The former’s watch was still
stained with
blood. A woman’s wails and sobs of pain could be heard in the hall he had just left.
“Clean the mess up.’ Josh instructed Morgan.
“Yes, sir!”
“Alyssa Taylor really is something.” Josh emanated a frosty air as he cracked his knuckles.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve met someone who dared challenge me. If she wants to

in the cold.” Here. The wind is stronger here.”
“Did you … tell my sister about the other night when Brie messed with me?” Tatiana
asked, slowly turning to face Sean. Her gaze was filled with a mix of emotions.
Sean blinked for a moment before answering softly, “Yes. I was the one who told Ms.

“What if Josh decides to make things difficult for Alyssa? Did you ever consider how
serious the
consequences of your action would be?”
Sean’s heart prickled with pain at Tatiana’s words.
In the midst of his panic, he placed both hands on Tatiana’s shoulders. “I was too angry!

eyes. She could feel the heat from his hands warming her up, making her heart pound.
“I know I manipulated Ms. Alyssa into this. I’ll definitely ask for her forgiveness, but I just
can’t ignore it, Ms. Tatiana. I just can’t.”
Sean’s breathing quickened, and his cheeks flushed. ‘I hate how useless I am. If I could, I
would do anything to keep you safe. Anything.
Tatiana’s cheeks were bright red now. Tears welled in her eyes as she leaned against
Sean’s shoulder.
She had once read a poem that went like this:
What was love?
It was the coward’s bravado, the pauper’s generosity.
the gladiator’s determination, the stoic’s gamble,
the meek’s confidence,
and-the fight to the end, knowing only futility stood in the way.
