“Someone dutuurd Jonah! Alyssa growled out, glaring at him.
“What?” Jasper gaped in shock.
“I managed to suppress the effects, but I can’t do much else to deal with this lucked up cocktail of drugs, so I’m getting him to the hospital right now!”
Alyssa llung Jasper’s hand away, yelling, “I don’t have time to deal with this nonsense right now, Jasper Beckett, but mark my words. If something happens to Jonah because of this, I’ll make sure you and your family pay!”
Her words were like blades that lodged themselves in Jasper’s heart. It felt like someone had carved a hole into his very being. His cheeks were warm and flushed as if she had just slapped him in the lace.

“Mr. Taylor, this is a woman who’s yet to leave her marriage officially, but here she was, already getting herself involved with your son. She even got herself alone in a room with him on Grandpa’s birthday, of all things! Would you really want your son to be with a woman like this?
Jasper had had enough. “Liana Gardner!”
But she had already said her fill. She needed to drag Alice down this once, even if it meant Jasper’s impression of her would turn sour
“Alice You” Newton blinked rapidly, not knowing what to say.
Meanwhile, Javier shook his head, silently grateful that his son had ended things with this woman. She would only humiliate their family
