Jeremy was tortured with a head full of questions when Alyssa was surrounded by her loving family. Why did she stay by his side and endure his emotional abuse when he did not show her a tiny fraction of the love that her family showered her with?
He was driven crazy by all the questions without answers.
“Oh, my God! That’s the retired actress, Lyla Nelson!” Xavier gaped at Lyla, who had aged like fine wine. “I want her autograph! My mom is a fan of hers!”
Jeremy shot him a look. “Back to the company now!”
However, he gave in and blacked out in the next second.
“Mr. Walsh!”
Jeremy woke up to find himself lying on a patient bed.
“Alyssa. The first thing out of his mouth was Alyssa’s name.
“The tendon in your right hand is injured. We observed some light concussion and a bit of blood clot, but they shouldn’t pose an issue.” Alyssa stood by the windows with her back against the light, leaving him with the sight of her lovely silhouette. 1
When Jeremy was in a coma, Xavier filled in Alyssa with the details of the car crash. Xavier claimed that Jeremy had not slept at all. He found Jeremy in the study filled with suffocating cigarette smoke in the morning.
“I think he must have lost his focus because he didn’t sleep well. His headache might have affected his driving as well.”
Alyssa was aware of the intensity of Jeremy’s headache. For that reason, he had rarely driven himself anywhere in recent years.
He had pulled off sleep deprivation, heavy smoking, and refusal of medical treatment in one day.
“Who are you torturing yourself for? Liana might feel sorry for you, but I won’t fall for it.” She scoffed in silence. She sneered at him. “Rest well. I’m leaving.”
She approached the door in great strides.
“Alyssa, wait!”
When she didn’t stop, he hopped out of bed anxiously and ran after her. As she placed her hand on the door handle, he put his arms against the surface and trapped her between his towering figure.
and the door.
“Jeremy, are you crazy? What are you doing?” She was shocked and enraged.
TII let you go if you answer me.” He stared squarely at her and demanded in a hoarse voice, “Why did you marry me?”
“What’s with all the questions?” She attempted to kick him, but he blocked her attack with his knee. Unable to move, she bit her lips with butterflies in her stomach. Her combat skills were nothing when faced with Jeremy, the top of his class at the military school.
“Is it that hard to tell me the truth?”
“Well, I was out of my mind at that time! Get off me, or I’m calling for help!”
He remained motionless at her unsatisfactory answer.
At the same time, someone busted the door from the outside. Alyssa stumbled into Jeremy’s arms from the impact.
He was quick to hold her waist firmly, pressing his palms against her flat belly. Her lines were even better than what he had imagined.
He swallowed hard as the urge rose in his body. Alyssa was breathing unevenly.
“Mr. Walsh! M¨CMadam!” Xavier was astonished by his discovery. He couldn’t figure out what was going on between the two.
Alyssa took her chance to free herself from Jeremy and stomped hard on his feet with her heels.
To her surprise, Jeremy dodged her attack thanks to his quick reflex.
Despite the failed attack, she grasped at the chance to escape and was out of the room in no time.
“S¨CShe’s running away. Do I go after her?” Xavier gulped nervously at the look of murder in
Jeremy’s eyes. He wondered if he had shown up at the wrong time.
“Huh?” Jeremy cracked his knuckles and squinted his rage¨Cfilled eyes. “Go to the HR and sort it out! Your bonus is canceled.”
The issuance of the divorce certificate ended Alyssa and Jeremy’s three¨Cyear entanglement.
If memory served her right, Jeremy and Liana were set to marry after Newton’s birthday. After years of waiting, it was Liana’s time to show off the title of Mrs. Walsh to the world.
Alyssa had nothing but good wishes for the couple. After all, the two deserved each other.
Alyssa went home to Belbanks in the evening, accompanied by her two brothers and Sean.
“Lyse!”
Alyssa heard a singsong voice from afar when she stepped foot in Heightsnew Villa. Smiling ear to ear, she responded, “Taty!”
Tatiana, the ninth Taylor sibling, and Winston’s youngest daughter, ran up to Alyssa with joy and anticipation.
“Lyse, I missed you so!” Tatiana hugged Alyssa with teary eyes and an adorable red nose.
“Look at you! Little crybaby, are you upset that I’m back?” Alyssa wrapped her arms around
Tatiana’s waist and gave the latter a kiss on the forehead. Although she was as tall as Tatiana, at that instance, she looked like a bigger sister towering over her little sibling.
“You’re back for good. Right?” Tatiana’s face was as lovely as a budding flower as she questioned
Alyssa through her tears.
“I’m not going anywhere. I’m back to help Winston manage the Taylor Group and spend time with.
you all. I will not leave anymore.”

Alyssa was guiltridden when she saw the worries in Tatiana’s eyes. Reckless and freedom¨Cloving, she bravely pursued love in the past and neglected her most beloved family.
Thankfully, she realized her mistake and returned to the embrace of her family. She almost melted when Tatiana called her nickname.
“That’s awesome! We’ve all been waiting for you!”
After some chitchatting, Tatiana nodded politely at Jonah and Silas. “Hi, Jonah and Silas.
Taty, how many times do we have to tell you to relax? Treat us like how you mingle with Lyse
Tatiana nodded shyly, even if she knew very well that she would never compare to Alyssa.
“Taty, you lost weight. Is school stressful?” Jonah rested his hands on his back and checked in with Tatiana.
“I’m a little worn out because I’ve been busy preparing for the graduation performance. I enjoy it, though, so it’s okay.” Tatiana’s eyes glimmered with hesitation as she mumbled, “W¨CWill you all attend my performance?”
She quickly added, “It’s fine if you can’t make it! I know you’re busy, but I asked just in case. I won’t mind.”
Jonah and Silas replied one after another, “We’re going!”
“Of course! That’s not a problem at all.” Alyssa rested her arm on Tatiana’s shoulder. “Let us know the date in advance. I’ll put aside my work and reserve the day just for my dear little sister!”
“I¨CI will let you know early! Thank you… Thank you for coming!” Tatiana’s voice trembled in excitement as Alyssa gently caressed her soft hair.
Tatiana had always behaved well and acted sensibly. The family never had to worry about her. Somehow, Alyssa felt sorry for Tatiana.
Tatiana was the youngest daughter of the Taylor family and Lyla Nelson’s only child. She should have received plenty of attention and love. However, Alyssa had taken much of the spotlight. This was due to her outstanding qualities and her standing as Winston’s first wife’s daughter.
Tatiana did not envy her older half¨Csister. On the contrary, she always respected the other family members because Lyla raised her well.
L
After Tatiana became an adult, she never once asked her family for money. She relied on scholarships to pay for college.
During her free time, she would work part¨Ctime jobs She lived in such a humble and ordinary manner. Most of her schoolmates were clueless about her wealthy background.
Still, Alyssa knew that Tatiana always felt that she was lesser than her other siblings due to being the child of Winston Taylor’s third wife. That was the reason Tatiana had always treated everyone with a distant politeness.
“Ms Tatiana, do you have an extra seat for me?” Sean suddenly asked.
