Alyssa was dumbfounded by the exchange. Jeremy’s face hardened¨Cas Newton’s grandson, he had been sidelined in favor of Allison.
The guests turned toward the voice and were stunned by who they saw.
Jonah Taylor smilingly wandered into the main hall accompanied by Sean. Alyssa’s eyes lit up with joy. She almost blurted out his name aloud.
Jeremy’s heart almost stopped at the sight of Jonah. His frosty eyes looked even more threatening at that moment. Alyssa seemed to have felt the change in him, as though she was standing right beside a walking iceberg.
She reflexively looked at Jeremy and found him looking glum. A frightening storm was brewing in her eyes.
“Please excuse me for running late,” Jonah said to Newton politely. He showed up in a special outfit that day, looking outstanding and gentlemanly in a high¨Cneck top with a dark suit.
The ladies around him swooned at Jonah, thinking of marrying him or Jeremy in their dreams. 1
“It’s not a problem. I am glad you’re here.” Newton smiled warmly at Jonah and treated him no differently, even though Jonah was Winston’s son.
Alyssa felt relieved at Newton’s reaction, for she initially thought that he’d mind Jonah’s presence.
“Allison, come over,” Jonah said as he reached out for Alyssa.
Sophia and Liana exchanged a look and smiled deviously. They successfully made Jonah show up because they wanted to see him fighting with Jeremy over Alyssa. That would tarnish Alyssa’s reputation as well as expose her as an easy woman to Newton. They thought they could kill two birds with one stone.
“Sure.” To their surprise, Alyssa happily went up to Jonah without hesitation.
On the other hand, Landon was dying of jealousy when his crush went back to her lover. He wondered if that was what it felt like to be a kept man. It was too torturous for him.
Jeremy’s body jolted in shock as his eyes widened. He raised his arm a little and tightened his fists, not knowing exactly what he was grasping at. He sensed a bitter taste in his mouth.
“Oh? Since when did you know Mr. Jonah? The two of you seem close too.” Newton was baffled.
“Dad, you probably haven’t heard about it. Allison is now his- Sophia was about to add fuel to the fire when Jonah cut her off.
He replied, “Mr. Walsh Senior, thank you for taking good care of Allison in the last three years. She often talks about you and thinks of you as family. I will always remember your kindness to her.”
Everyone was shocked when Jonah wrapped an arm around Alyssa’s waist. The two looked like the main couple from a movie.
Jeremy clenched his fists as fury twisted inside of him.
“Sadly, Allison will stay with me. She’ll be under the Taylor family’s care. She might not be part of the Walsh family anymore, but she will always think fondly of you.” Jonah smiled softly. “You will always be her beloved grandpa.”
No one had anything to say about his impeccable manners.
“Ah…” Newton came to a realization
“Dad, Allison is in a relationship with Mr. Jonah Javier whispered in a low voleo “Please stop hooking her up with Insper because she’s dating someone new. You can’t force a relationship”
“That’s right. Sophia jumped on the train. Seeing the way Mr. Jonaly immediately picked her up after she tell our family, you could tell that their fling started way back.”
“Way back?” Newton glared.
“Yes. How else would their relationship grow this last? That’s why I told you II was useless to worry about Jeremy and her. A loveless marriage is meaningless. They might as well break free and find their happiness,”
“So, you don’t have to worry about Allison. She’s joining the Taylor Family they’re as good as we are,” Sophia muttered sollly with hidden intention. She wanted to shatter Newton’s Impression of Allison as a prim and proper lady.
Alyssa pursed her lips and stared at her feet. She had long anticipated the arrival of this day, and she was fully prepared to face Newton’s resentment.
“Grandpa, please do not blame Allison,” Jeremy surprisingly stood up for her and shot her a heavy look. “She does not owe me anything at all. I have nothing but good wishes for her relationship with Mr. Jonah.”
Still, he was reluctant to offer his well wishes,
Alyssa’s eyes wavered in shock. She did not recall the arrogant Jeremy ever calling her by her name. She would have been over the moon for that occasion if they were still married, but all she could do was smirk at his Jarring remark.
“Of course, you can do nothing except wish her well. You couldn’t win her back even if I asked you to.” Hulling and pulling, Newton hit Jeremy twice to express his fury. “How can I blame her for dating another man? It’s all your fault. You do not deserve a nice young lady like Allison as your wife!” 1
Newton’s statement was Jaw¨Cdropping. The expression on Sophia and Liana’s laces crumbled. They finally understood that it was impossible to start a drama to provoke Newton, for the old man was hopelessly on Allison’s side.
After being reprimanded, a frustrated Jeremy said flatly. “I’m glad you’re not upset with her.”
“Why would I be? I can’t dote on her enough! Allison, Mr. Jonah, please come up.”
Jonah and Alyssa exchanged looks before approaching Newton. Alyssa pursed her lips with a pitiful expression. “Grandpa, I’m sorry for keeping it a secret from you.”
“It’s not a big deal. I am not concerned about that. All I want is for you to be happy.” He looked at Alyssa affectionately before turning to Jonah with a serious look.
Then, he said, “Mr. Jonah, you are an Important man who comes from a family full of sisters. Do promise you’ll look after Allison and keep her from trouble at home. If you don’t, I will be knocking at your door for Justice.”
Jonah cast an amused look at his little sister as he recalled how she had ridden Silas like a pony and scribbled all over Axel’s face in their childhood. He chortled and sald. “Sure, I promise.”
Newton might be old, but he was not senile. Seeing the love in Jonah’s eyes, he sighed gladly and said with regret, “Mr. Jonah, I’ll entrust Allison to you. I hope you give her what my grandson falled to offer her. Please show her love.”
The color drained from Jeremy’s face at that moment, as though he was struck by lightning.
“I will,” Jonah replied gently with a determined look in his eyes. With a sharp Inhale, Jeremy stared hard at Allison, the woman who was once his wife, now standing beside Jonah.
Feeling like an empty shell, he fought back tears.

She caliberately leaned toward Landon in an effort to close her distance from him. Too bad Landon refused to pay attention to her and dooged her move, causing her to almost lose her balance.
How humiliatirs
Some quests were quietly laughing at her. Overcome with embarrassment, she silently cursed them out.
Before long, a maid brought in the Victorian¨Cera vase by Betty. Newton beamed and nodded. “Great! Thank you, Betty!”
Betty couldn’t help but gloat.
“This is Ms. Lauren’s gift for you. Do check it out.” Ben brought out a painting.
“On is that from Lauren? Show me!”
Newton looked surprised by the painting before laughing merrily. “Hahaha! Is this her portrait of me? Splendid! Such a talented girl!”
Everyone crowded around Newton to check out the painting that made him laugh. Within seconds, their attention had shifted from Betty to Lauren’s painting.
Lauren had painted a portrait of Newton laughing out loud in his usual outfit. She paid great attention to the details. Additionally, she scribbled a message at the bottom of the painting. It read, “Dear Grandpa, smile always. From Lauren.”
“Look at Lauren’s painting. Does it resemble me? She’s talented in art!” Newton proudly showed off Lauren.
*Laurie¨CUhm, Lauren is great at painting. She is almost like a professional artist!” Landon smiled at the thought of the adorable Lauren.
The smile froze on Betty’s face as she burned in jealousy.
“Her lines might be a little unpolished, but give her some time, and she’ll be successful in the industry.”Jeremy nodded quietly.
“Grandpa, Lauren is talented in art. It’s always been her wish to enroll in an art college to study the subject.” Alyssa grabbed the opportunity to speak on behalf of Lauren.
She continued, “She must have great potential if Jeremy compliments her¨Cyou know he rarely sings praises. She should give it a try. I bet we will have a famous artist in the family in five years.”
Jeremy frowned at her words, which felt like a swipe at him. Did he never compliment the others? He wondered if he was as harsh as she made him sound.
“You’re right Dad.” Javier and Sophia could only agree with Newton with apologetic smiles.
