Chapter 1079: Chapter 1079

Alyssa had her back facing Jameson. She didn’t say a single word.

She had trouble untangling her messy thoughts. As she was about to enter the house, the door opened.

“Mandy?” Alyssa was shocked to see Mandy come out.

Mandy smiled at her. Her face turned glum when she looked at Jameson. “Mr. Jameson, my husband wants to see you. Please.”

“What did you say? Dad wants to see him?”

Alyssa’s eyes widened. She tried her best to calm herself down. “He is sick. What is he trying to do?”

Helplessness swirled in Mandy’s eyes. “Your dad asked for this, so I am merely relaying the message.”

“Thank you for inviting me in personally, Mrs. Taylor.”

Jameson subtly adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and a dark glint flickered in his eyes. An unconscious smile graced his lips.

After Jameson entered Heightsnew Villa, Mandy escorted him to the study to meet Winston.

The Taylors usually entertained guests in the guest room or parlor. After all, to a man, the study was as sacred and private as their bedroom.

Apart from Winston’s partner-in-crime, Victor, no one had entered his study all these years.

Jameson was the second person. It was clear as day how much Alyssa was sitting on the sofa in the living hall. Her eyes were gloomy as a storm.

“Lyse, your dad had been pretty close to Mr. Jameson these days. From what I know, this is not the first time he is meeting Mr. Jameson alone.”

Mandy held Alyssa’s freezing hand. “I think your dad is serious about this.”

“Serious about what?”

“For you to marry into the Schmidt family.”

“Pfft! He can dream on.”

Alyssa clenched her fists tightly. A violent rage surged in her heart.” Over my dead body. They can consider marrying my spirit off after I die.”

“Lyse, watch your mouth.”

Mandy frowned deeply. Yet, she took Alyssa’s words seriously. “I know you will never marry Mr.

Jameson.

“Lyla, Colene, and I will do our best to convince your dad not to force you to do anything you’re unwilling. You won’t marry someone you. don’t love and struggle in an unhappy marriage under our watch.”

“Dad never wanted this marriage to happen. I think he wants to break me and Jasper apart.”

Alyssa sullenly closed her eyes and sighed. “He’ll go to any lengths to prevent me from being with Jasper. I’m acutely aware of his ruthless nature, willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. I’ve absorbed this trait from him completely.”

“You are right. Out of all your siblings, you resemble your father the Mandy was lost in her thoughts for a long while. Then, she asked worriedly, “Lyse, is Jasper the only one you will consider?”

“Yes, I won’t accept anyone but him,” Alyssa emphasized each word. without hesitation.

Then, her phone rang.

She looked at the name that had appeared on the screen. Her eyes were moist as her lips unconsciously curled into a gentle smile.

She was smitten.

“I won’t bother you, lovebirds then. I’m going upstairs.” Mandy got up and left knowingly.

Alyssa pursed her lips. Her heart palpitated as she answered the call.
