Not many people knew about the relationship between Tatiana and Sean. But the Schmidt family was one of them.
It was very bold of the Schmidt Group to do Sean dirty like that!
âHow did you get in, Sean?â Jasper asked in a concerned voice.
âI was surrounded by people from the Schmidt Group. Nonetheless, I still found a way. I stole one of the bodyguardsâs access cards and snuck in,â Sean explained. His face was pale and drenched in cold sweat.
Jasper chuckled, âWhat a painstaking effort the Schmidts had to go. through to stop you!â
Jasperâs eyes were ablaze with fury. However, he forced himself to remain calm in front of Alyssa.
Jasper said in a cold and steady voice, âYouâre quite badly hurt.
Youâve already been injured before. You shouldnât delay treatment. Iâll have Xavier send you to the hospital right now.â
âNo! Iâm not leaving! I need to see Taty! I want to take her away with me!â Sean screamed at the top of his lungs.
âMr. Lynch, please be more reasonable.â Jasper raised his brows. With Alyssa helping you from behind the scenes in the first place, you could have had a sliver of hope to be with Ms. Tatiana. If your commotion tonight provoked Mr. Taylor, you will end up having no hope at all.â
âHope? Mr. Taylor has already agreed to the Schmidt familyâs proposal. It is a done deal! Taty is also soft-hearted and timid. She would definitely give in for the sake of her parents and family. If Iâm DIVL UL une nynung ivi 42, mat nopy uv ne Jasper observed Sean, who had a face full of despair. He felt a prick in his heart as he empathized with him.
As the president of the Beckett Group, Jasper had power and status. He also had support from Newton. Even so, he had to put everything on the line in order to get to where he currently was with Alyssa.
Sean was only Alyssaâs subordinate. His family background didnât even match up to that of the Taylor family.
Even if he and Tatiana were truly in love, the challenges before him would certainly be no less than Jasperâs.
âSean, who was the one who ordered them to beat you up?â Alyssa was at the peak of her fury. All she could think about was avenging him.
Sean shook his head. âI wanted to just barge my way in initially.
However, Daisyâs men barricaded me. Davidâs secretary was also right next to her.
âIâm not sure whether it was David or Daisy who was actually behind it In her extreme anger, Alyssa cracked up. Her eyes glistened dimly.
âThey share the same last name, and they have the same filthy blood running through their veins. If you donât know which of them it was, just make it a double kill!â
Meanwhile, Tatiana was still oblivious to the incident with Sean.
Regardless, she was weighed down by many concerns. She remained indifferent no matter how David tried to please her. Nothing he said was reaching her.
Her heart was filled with Sean. There was no way that she could accept anyone else.
While she wasnât paying attention, her phone fell onto the floor.
Just as she was bending over to pick it up, David also reached out to help her with picking it up. Their hands came in contact accidentally.
Hastily, Tatiana tried to withdraw her fingers. To her surprise, David made a bold move and grabbed her hand instead!
She shrieked as she pulled her hand away forcefully. She shot to her feet and asked agitatedly, âWhat are you doing, Mr. David?â
âIâm sorry! Iâm sorry, Ms. Tatiana. Your hand is really beautiful. I couldnât help it and⦠Itâs my bad. I acted too abruptly. My apologies.â
David put on a panicked expression on his face. His eyes turned moist. âIâm sorry. Itâs just that⦠I really like you, Ms. Tatiana.
âThe person Jameson loves is still your sister. You should be well aware of that. Your life will be ruined if you were to marry him. He will not treat you well! But Iâm different. I truly fancy you, so why donât we just be together? This is the best outcome!â
âStop talking! Thatâs enough!â
Tatianaâs cheeks flushed red. She was filled with angry humiliation, and deep down, she felt ashamed.
âEven though my mother is not my fatherâs first wife, you still shouldnât insult me like this!
âIâm not interested in you nor Mr. Jameson. At the very least, Mr. Jameson is still respectful of me. That makes him better than you! Stop wasting your energy. You will not be the one I choose!â
With that, Tatiana turned and left the banquet hall.
She had just said that Jameson was better than him.
How could she say that bastard was better?
David was extremely ticked off. Rage ran red through his brain! With his entire body shaking, he pulled out his phone and texted his secretary.
âTonight, I will make this dense woman mine!â
