The next day, Alyssa woke up and vomited again.
âLyse, I remember you used to have a good tolerance for alcohol. How did it get so bad?â Silas
hurriedly handed her a glass of water and brought her some hangover medicine.
âI haven't had a drink in three years and suddenly drank so much yesterday. Of course, I couldnât
handle it.â
Alyssa knew Jasper disliked women reeking of alcohol, so she quit drinking during their three years
of marriage.
âIf 1 didn't know you were dunk last night, I would have thought you were pregnant,â Silas teased
her.
"Haha. What would you guys do if I really got pregnant with Jasperâs child?â A subtle look of pain
flashed across her eyes.
"What else can we do? Of course, we'll take care of the child together. Regardless of who the father
of the baby is, it's innocent.â
Although Silas hated Jasper to the core, his values were upright, probably due to his profession as
a legal practitioner.
âDonât worry. Do you think I'll want to bear Jasper's child?â Alyssa sneered and took a sip of water
to clear her throat.
Silas asked, âBy the way, do you remember what happened last night?â
âI remember I got into trouble with Dylan, and it seems like... Jasper came? After that, I donât
remember anything.â
"You really donât remember?â
âI think I saw a handsome guy helping me out. Gosh, I was too drunk at the time. Otherwise, I would
have definitely asked for his number.â
âThat was Landon. We went to his newly opened club last night.â
As soon as Alyssa heard the name of the infamous Landon, she lost all interest. âForget it. That kid
is a disaster wherever he goes.
âDo you know that Jasper dragged you into the menâs restroom after that?â
Alyssa widened her eyes in shock.
âI don't know what you two were up to, but when I went in, I saw you hugging him and wiping your
nose on his body.â Silas shook his head repeatedly, unable to bear the memories
Alyssa gasped. She was speechless.
âLyse, if I hadn't arrived in time to take you away, that brat might have...â
âIt wouldn't have happened. Jasper isn't like Landon,â Alyssa said, rubbing her temples in
annoyance.
"And now you're defending him!â
âI'm not defending him! Besides being cold, emotionally ignorant, and hating me, he can still be
considered a gentleman,â she continued, feeling a pang in her heart after saying those words.
âBut I didn't know what got into Jas last night. He actually asked me if I would marry you and told
me not to play with your feelings. He said you couldn't handle the game of love because you're
from a small family.â
Silasâ lips curled with a hint of mockery. âDonât you think heâs too much of a busybody with nothing
better to do? He can't even settle his own matters yet he's worrying about other stuff.â
"Wait, why did he bring this up out of nowhere with you?â
âBecause he mistook me for Jonah, so I just went along with it and told him not to touch my woman
in the future. Hmph, he must've been frustrated by that,â Silas explained proudly.
âDamn it. Go to hell!â Alyssa exclaimed in anger and landed a punch on Silasâ handsome face.
Knowing that Alyssa had been drinking last night, Sean prepared a light and delicious breakfast. He
specifically made food that was good for hangovers for her.
Wearing a pink silk slip dress, Alyssa came down for breakfast with her long hair flowing freely.
Although she wore underwear underneath, it was still too revealing and S**y.
Sean's face instantly flushed red, and he quickly averted his gaze, not daring to look at her closely
âHey! There are two men in the house. Can you consider our feelings?â Silas lightly rubbed his
swollen cheek while staring at Alyssa with an annoyed expression.
âI've been wearing white sneakers and dresses for three years. Now, I want to wear whatever I want.
Nobody can stop me.â Alyssa rolled her eyes and bit on her bread furiously.
"Why did you wear only white sneakers and dresses for three years? Ms. Alyssa, were you teaching
in the countryside? Will you corrupt the future of our country with your teaching?â Sean asked
solemnly.
âShut up!â the siblings exclaimed in unison.
Donning delicate makeup, a white suit dress, and Jimmy Choo shoes, Alyssa transformed into a
stunning female executive again as she visited the hotel. She was glowing. 1
However, her head was throbbing due to the hangover.
Sitting in her office, Alyssa recalled her conversation with Silas in the morning and felt mixed
emotions.
Did Jasper really care about her when he helped her last night and said those things to Silas?
No way. It was impossible. Jasperâs selfish possessiveness was only triggered because he saw his
former lover with a new guy:
