Chapter 601: Chapter 601

There was rarely anything that could satiate Jameson. But one thing that could do the trick was crushing and torturing Jasper Beckett.

Alyssa regained her composure and questioned, “Jameson, why are you here?”

“I’ve moved into a villa behind yours,” he revealed with an affectionate gaze.

She was utterly astonished and gasped, “What?”

Equally shocked, Jasper’s chest tightened as he sensed an impending threat.

“I said we’re neighbors now, Lyse,” teased Jameson, tilting his head and flashing a gentlemanly and youthful smile at her.

Then, he extended his hand to her, saying, “Hello, new neighbor. Let’s get along well in the future.”

Although she was taken aback, Alyssa regathered her composure and politely shook his hand, effectively keeping her ex-husband, Jasper, out of the conversation.

“Lyse, would you like to visit my new place? Jameson invited her. Just like her, he was an opportunist.

He added, “I bought a lot of fresh seafood, including salmon and lobsters-your favorites. I’ll cook for you.

Each word Jameson said was filled with love for Alyssa. His thoughtfulness and courtesy made him the ideal boyfriend for any woman.

Feeling troubled and thinking it wasn’t the best time to join a housewarming event, she declined. “Let’s do that another day. We’ll run into each other a lot now that we’re living in the same neighborhood. Thanks for the offer, though.”

“My mom will be there tonight,” Jameson stated, his gaze unwavering.

He earnestly extended the invitation once more. “I promised her I’d invite you for dinner. She’s delighted since she hasn’t seen you in years. She’s eager to meet Mr. Taylor’s precious daughter.”

Alyssa looked surprised and exclaimed, “Is Mrs. Schmidt back from Kontina?”

“Yes, I brought her back,” Jameson replied with a contented smile.

“That’s wonderful.”

Jasper stood by anxiously throughout the exchange, watching them. He couldn’t find an opportunity to As an experienced businessman, he was always capable and never helpless. However, he often felt like a fool when he was with Alyssa.

“Lyse, you know my mom’s condition. She’s rarely conscious, Jameson mumbled with a sorrowful look in his eyes that evoked sympathy.

“I hope you’ll meet with her while she’s still awake. Otherwise, it would be pointless. I understand it’s a big ask, but could you do this for me?”

Given the long-standing friendship between the Schmidts and the Taylors and the fact that Alyssa had no plans for that evening, she had no reason to decline the invitation.

She replied, “Well, I’ll have to trouble you, Jameson.”

Jasper’s anger flared, and his blood pressure rose as he clenched his fists.

“It’s no trouble at all, and I appreciate you accepting the invitation, Lyse,” Jameson said with joy in his eyes. He gestured for Alyssa to go ahead of him, and they left Jasper standing there.

However, Jasper was no pushover, especially when his rival was Jameson Schmidt. He hated seeing Alyssa leave with another man. But what could he do?

A voice in his head urged him on, “Go, stop them! Ego is nothing in the face of love! Keep her by your side!”

“Lyse!” Jasper’s heart raced as he approached them with determined strides.

But before he could get close to Alyssa, he saw Jameson throwing a punch in his direction, as if the latter had eyes on the back of his head.
