Chapter 552
Xavier shivered and stammered, “Uh, well, Mr. Beckett, I am worried for you! There has barely been any progress in your relationship with Madam. Who knows if I ever live to the day when you get back
together!
“You said you risked your life to save her, but her attitude hasn’t changed. She hasn’t visited you except for her daily check-in calls to me. I feel sorry for you.
Xavier recalled that Alyssa had always prepared a feast whenever she learned Jasper would come home
Then, she’d wait for him by the door. She had given all her heart to him
But now, all she offered were icy glances that sent shivers through onlookers. Some things, once lost,

There was a knock on the door. A female secretary announced, “Mr Beckett, Mr. Harper is here to see

Ever since Jasper admitted his feelings for Alyssa, Landon had been mentioning her a lot more
Jasper cheered up at the mention of Alyssa, but he cast a disgusted look at the skimpy outfit on Landon and warned, “You won’t be let in the next time if you dress like this”
Landon wondered aloud, “But why?”

Xavier nearly burst into laughter, leaving Landon squinting as it took him a moment to catch on.
Then, Landon yelled angrily, “You little F***er! I’m straight, okay? Even if you want to bed me, I won’t sleep with you. I’ve got better options out there…”
Jasper was left dumbfounded while Xavier struggled to hold back his laughter.
“That’s enough. I don’t have time for your nonsense. What’s up?” Jasper questioned.
“Look at this!” He produced an invitation card and waved it in front of Jasper.
“What’s that?”
“I got this invitation card to Lyla Nelson’s birthday party this weekend! Ms. Alyssa’s staff delivered it to
me!”
