Chapter 222

Alyssa felt creeped out by Jasper's sudden show of care. His belated attention was like expired

food that only brought disgust

She made a call to Sean “Sean, I'm at Seaview Manor in Solana City Pick me up now"

"What?" He was astonished to hear that “W Why are you there?”

“It's a long story Let's talk when you're here”

After the call, she made her way up the stairs She planned to pack the clothes and leave the

moment Sean arrived, as she did not want to overstay

Her former bedroom was near Lauren's room. From talking to the maids, she learned that Lauren

had taken a break from her studies. She thought of checking in with the girl

Standing at Lauren's door, she overheard Betty's bitchy rant “You little bitch! What did you do to

M: Harper at Grandpa's birthday? Tell me

“No, I didn't Betty, I didn't do anything to him” Lauren's teary voice was heart-wrenching to heat

“Bullshit” Lauren's denial only fanned Betty's anger Betty believed that her sister was lying

How could you have done nothing with him after he took the spiked drink? How do you explan

the hickey on his neck? Was that an animal bite?”

“I don't know I don’t remember a thing, I swear Ouch!”

What followed was the sound of a shattered vase Alyssa clenched her fist and busted the door

open, which came as a shock to Betty

You? When Betty finally pulled herself together, she saw a swift movement that attacked her

Tight on the face

“high” Soon, another slipper landed on her face. Her face was flushed with marks from the

slipper attack She appeared dizzy, which made her look rather hilarious

The pressed a hand on her forehead and pointed a finger at Alyssa’s face, but she was too angry to

think of any insult

Alice Lauren curled up into a tiny ball and shivered in a corner. She started crying agitatedly after see

"Alyssa Taylor, you crazy bitch!” Betty was seething. Her face was numb from the attack, as the

slippers were harder than the palm of a hand.

She continued, “You think you're something just because you're a Taylor? I am a Beckett, and I'm

as powerful as you. I will not let this slip!”

“Please keep your word. I, too, need a good reason to punch you.” Alyssa did not give a damn about

Betty at all. Her eyes spelled mockery.

She added, “You're just a good—-for—

nothing who bullies your sibling. Pretty impressive, aren't you? Those who don't know that you're Sc

wolves!"

It took Betty a while to get the mockery, as she was not the sharpest tool in the shed. She growled

and threw herself at Alyssa.

“How dare you call me an animal? I'll rip you to shreds!”

Alyssa shook her head in disgust at the sight of Betty's ugliness. She was reluctant to dirty her

hands by punching Betty-the woman was a mad dog.

Just when Betty was close to touching Alyssa, she was grabbed on the wrist by a huge and

defined hand.

"Ouch! That hurts!” Feeling the pain, Betty doubled over.

Alyssa sensed an increase in testosterone in the vicinity. She turned around and found Jasper

staring at her. They exchanged gazes.

She picked up a hint of concern in his eyes, which might well be an illusion. She shook it off and

reminded herself that she was only being delusional.

She'd rather believe in ghosts than his feelings for her.

“Did she hurt you?" He looked at Alyssa and questioned with a concerned tone.
