Alyssa’s ch*st felt heavy, and she instinctively curled her numb fingers in response to the unsettling
sensation.
She couldn’t help but wonder why Jasper had never treated Alice White as kindly as he had treated her,
Alyssa Taylor.
“Jonah, I know my likes and dislikes. Maybe you’re right-a relationship is never black and white, but that
doesn’t apply to me because I know what I want,” she declared in a teary voice and gazed out the window.
“My relationship with Jasper is complicated, but I no longer have any affection for him. I’ll never repeat
my mistake-wasting my youth on a man is a silly decision with no reward,” Alyssa asserted.
Silence enveloped Sean and Tatiana as they journeyed back to her campus, each lost in their thoughts.
The Porsche came to a halt at the school’s quiet entrance in the middle of the night.
Seated in the car, they both seemed to share an unspoken agreement not to get out. The crescent moon
cast a soft light over the land, adding a romantic touch to the silence in the car.
“Sean, thanks for driving me back,” Tatiana broke the silence shyly.
Feeling a twinge of regret, Sean responded professionally, considering their status differences, “Ms.
Tatiana, there’s no need for such formality with me. I may have seen you and Ms. Alyssa grow up, but I’m
still an employee of the Taylor Group. You should treat me as such.”
Tatiana, who was extremely sensitive, immediately sensed that Sean wanted to put a distance between
them.
Tearing up, she muttered in heartache, “I … I won’t give you trouble anymore. Don’t hate me, okay?”
Sean explained with a sigh as he slowly unfastened her seatbelt, “You’ve misunderstood my words.
You’ve never been a bother to me. It’s me who didn’t want to trouble you.”
Their breaths intermingled, and the atmosphere in the car grew tense. Sean consciously avoided her gaze
and quickly moved back in his seat. He said to her, “It’s late. I’ll walk you to your dorm.”
With that, he got out of the car.
Repeating his words in her mind, she felt lonely and disappointed. She knew she didn’t have a chance
with Sean and that the k*ss was merely an accident.

She convinced herself that she was too ordinary to deserve a man like Sean and that she was just being
delusional.
After collecting himself, Sean courteously held the door open for Tatiana. She stepped out, her l*ps paling as she said, I’ll manage on my own. You don’t have to- Oh!”
She exclaimed in panic, squeezing her eyes shut and covering her ears when the sound of a revving
engine reached her.
A near-car crash in her childhood had left her with a deep-seated fear of the roaring engines of sports
cars.
Seeing that, Sean frowned and swiftly pulled her into a protective embrace. Just then, a silver Laferrari
roared down the street at breakneck speed, ruffling Sean’s jacket.
“It’s alright. Don’t be scared. I’m here,” he murmured gently, comforting the trembling Tatiana and patting
her. He felt both sympathy for her and anger toward the reckless driver.
The Laferrari stopped at the school entrance. A pair of long and S**y legs emerged from the front.
passenger seat.
Next, a woman with impeccable makeup and a head of brunette curls lazily strutted out of the sportscar
in a minidress.
