right, we'll make this little troublemaker disappear from the face of the earth!"
Alyssa was discharged from the hospital after she recovered.
Axel wasn't there when she was discharged because he didn't want to see Winston. Everyone else
from the Taylor family came. Even Winston's wives rushed over from Belbanks.
The wives were empathetic women. When they saw how scrawny the princess of the family had
become, tears streamed down their faces. Alyssa had lost her usual radiant appearance.

Lyla was the most sensitive of all. Her eyes were swollen after all the crying. She went to Alyssa and
hugged her tightly. "It's our fault that we didn't protect you. I'm sorry, my dear."
"Lyla, I'm the one who should be apologizing." Alyssa returned Lyla's hug. Pain surged in her heart.
"Are you feeling better now? Did Dad buy you anything like bags, clothes, or jewelry?
"Whoa, don't tell me that he's so stingy that he didn't buy you anything!"
"Pfft, please don't say that. On the other hand, Lyla bought a lot of premium ingredients and local
products to cook for you for a month. She wants to replenish your body again," Colene said, laughing
as she hugged Manday's waist.
"Huh? I'm not in confinement or hurt. I don't need these." Alyssa beckoned with her hand. She was a

and rushed here.
Yet he could only be a shadow in the dark, silently standing there as he stared longingly at the woman

she had shrieked and scowled at him. She had even tried to hurt him.
Jasper shuddered as he clutched at his chest.

out with their bare hands.
Yet he didn't know who to blame for things progressing this way.
Was he supposed to blame Liana? Or Jameson?
It seemed like he could only blame himself.
"Lyse ... Lyse ..."
Jasper blanked for a moment. His body rebelliously moved forward, wanting to be closer to her.
At this moment, a luxurious car came to a stop before Alyssa.
It was Winston's car, an antique Rolls-Royce. It was the only one in the country. Neil got out of the car.
Then, he opened the passenger door.
Alyssa thought her father would get out of the car. However, the next second, she was stunned.
A man got out of the car in a suit and tie. He was elegant and gentle. It was Jameson.
