“Winston, where’s Lyse?” Unwilling to give up, Victor craned his neck. to look outside.
“No need to look. Lyse is injured and can’t sit for a long time to talk to guests. I asked her to rest at
home. She won’t be coming tonight,” Winston replied indifferently.
“Winston, how can you do this? You promised to bring Lyse last time. How can you go back on your
words? Besides, we’re not just guests. We’re going to be family.” Victor kept chattering away, but he
was confused.
Winston sat down. “If you truly care about Lyse, you would let her recover properly and not bother her.”

conversation, and Winston really liked Jameson. He had promised to make Alyssa marry Jameson,

art.

“I also know that Jimmy has feelings for Lyse, and he’s dutiful and considerate. He’s the one I really
like. But matters of the heart can’t be forced. Lyse has a man she loves, and you should know who that
is.”
