"Give it up. It's not going to happen,” Alyssa said firmly. “I won't eat with you.”

Landon clucked his tongue. “Why so harsh? Remember

how I helped you teach Dylan a lesson? Think of this meal as thanks for that. Can't you do that?” Alyssa smiled mockingly. “As far as I'm aware, Jasper's the one who helped

me out. It's inappropriate for you to take credit for something your best bud did.”

“Have I done anything to offend you, Ms. White? Why can't you give

me a chance?” Landon looked her in the eye. “Is it because you already have Jonah? Does he have th tell the world you're his girlfriend? Because I do!"

“Mr. Harper, it doesn't matter who came first or last when it comes to relationships. But having sham "When I married Jasper, my heart belonged to him and only him. Now that Jonah's my boyfriend, he isn't the best, but I hate it when people try to ruin it. I'd advise you to keep your nose out of my busi knew how bitter Alyssa felt when she said this.

Even Landon could tell she was trying hard to suppress her anger and heartache. His gaze deepened for a second. Alyssa breathed deeply and put her guard up again. Then, she turned to leave with

“Jasper?” Landon’s eyes widened. How had he

gotten there so quickly? Had he taken a rocket or something?

Jasper stood

at the entrance of the restaurant with his back straight. He oozed iciness. The restaurant's A/C was tu Alyssa met his burning gaze. She

like she would miss Jasper at all.
