Chapter 497: Chapter 497

Ada Kingsley’s wedding wrapped up amid praises. Alyssa emerged victorious from the wedding, garnering both reputation and profit. She had successfully turned the failing KS World Hotel business around and returned it to its glory.

Within half a year, she had completed Winston’s mission for her and more. The first thing she wanted was, of course, to get her reward from Winston in Belbanks!

That evening, she picked up Tatiana from school. They sat in her Dark Emerald Rolls-Royce, chatting and fooling around merrily as the car headed to Belbanks.

“Lyse, I never thought that you were the renowned jewelry designer Alexa!” Tatiana clapped her hands, her cheeks flushed from the excitement.

“Okay, stop. I know what you will say. You’re going to profess your admiration for me again, aren’t you?” joked Alyssa. She flicked her hair and lifted her chin. “You don’t have to. I’m sick of all those compliments. Just let me know if you ever want to put on any jewelry.”

“T-That’s not okay!” Tatian shook her head furiously. “Alexa’s jewelry is for global superstars. Why don’t you gift Miley a piece of jewelry instead? Dad and Mom told me that Jeremy will be Kontina’s president soon. You’ll be proud to have the First Lady wear your designs!”

“Pfft. People might see Alexa as a famous designer, but I am just me in my family’s eyes.” Alyssa proudly lifted her brows and wrapped an arm around Tatiana’s waist.

She remarked, “You can finally show off your sister, Alexa, at school. Your schoolmates sure would want to suck up to you. It’s their pride to be acquainted with you.”

That reminded Tatiana of the rumors about her on campus and Tyler Crowley’s troublemaking. Her eyes brimmed with tears, but she pushed herself to smile and maintain tightly sealed lips.

Alyssa sighed. “Speaking of which, I miss Miley a lot.”

The sisters leaned against each other. Alyssa’s eyes glimmered. “I wonder if Jeremy’s treating Miley nicely. I’ll tear him into pieces if he’s mean to her.”

“I bet Jonah, Silas, Liam, Axel, and even Dad would teach him a lesson before you get to it,” Tatiana rapped with a grin.

She was right. Bet Jeremy was sensible enough not to land himself in hot water.

“Hmm… Lyse, why isn’t S-Sean with you?” Tatiana finally inquired after searching for Sean when she entered the car.

“He’s pretty tired lately, so I gave him time off,” replied Alyssa emotionlessly.

Alyssa’s car rolled past the gates of Heightsnew Villa. The sisters Immediately found Spencer, Sinead, and their three sons walking toward them when they disembarked.

Alyssa seemed slightly taken aback, as she hadn’t been informed about Winston’s guests. She quickly regained her composure.

Simon’s eyes were spitting fire when he spotted Alyssa. He would have cussed her out if he opened his mouth.

“Ms. Alyssa,” Sean croaked. He took a step forward but was reminded of Alyssa’s warning that day.

Despite his eagerness to get closer, he distanced himself from her.

Alyssa carelessly swept her eyes past him. His tall figure stood in front of her helplessly. Shoulders slumped, he bit his pale lips like a pitiful, homeless puppy.

Nevertheless, she decided not to raise his false hopes, for that would only hurt him.
