Chapter 208
“How about the Beckett Group?” Alyssa asked.
“I heard they didn’t make any progress too.”
“It’s good to know that we haven’t fallen behind. We’re still on the starting line just like
they are.”
“But we have more competitors than the Beckett Group! I heard that ten luxury hotels
across the
nation are fighting to host Ada Kingsley’s wedding!”
“The Beckett Group and the Taylor Group are the benchmark for hotels in the nation. Ada
Kingsley is too fussy to host her wedding in smaller hotels.” She took a bite of the
sandwich and
squinted.
She continued, “Keep in touch with her team. I want to move her with sincerity. She has an
event
in the country at the start of next month, where I’ll meet her in person and secure the
deal. Time
for the Beckett Group to give up!”
Whoever messed with her business deals would have to suffer.

Many young couples were waiting for their turn at the entrance to the city hall early in the
morning. They were either hugging or taking photos sweetly.
The Rolls–Royce in dark emerald, with its Spirit of Ecstasy mascot sculpture, came to a
stop in
front of the city hall. Many of the young couples were in awe at the sight of that.
Alyssa checked her wristwatch. It was 9:00 am.
“Hah. Surprisingly, Jasper did not show up early.” Sean mocked, “The president of the
Beckett
Group is indeed arrogant.”
“Whatever. Let him be.” She checked out the youthful faces from the curtain. Their eyes
were
shining with joy. She remarked, “I’ve waited for him countless times. I don’t mind waiting
for one
last time.
Three years ago, she waited for Jasper at the entrance of city hall on the day they were
supposed
to register their marriage. She was starving all day until he showed up right before the
closing time without a word of apology. He rushed through their marriage registration at
the very last
minute
Even so, she was too excited to sleep after they registered their marriage.

In retrospect, she was a hopeless pushover. She finally understood that she had to love
herself
before loving someone else.
After half an hour, Alyssa almost lost her patience when she saw a cab stopping in front of
the
city hall. She couldn’t believe her eyes when Jasper emerged from the cab.
“F***! Did I see it wrong? Why did the president take a cab here? Could he not afford to
fuel his
Maybach?” Sean’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Maybe he wants to keep a low profile. The divorce is not something to be proud of.”
Alyssa
yawned and got out of the car with Sean.
As usual, Jasper wore his favorite black suit with thin grey stripes, a dusty blue shirt, and a
dark-

The arrival of the handsome Jasper caused a stir among the crowds, especially the ladies,
who
might squeal in delight if they weren’t with their boyfriends.
It was the men’s turn to look delighted when Alyssa walked up to Jasper with poise.
“Wow, look at her face! It’s as clear as crystal. Is her skin real?”
“I think she’s bare–faced. Her dress is lovely! Please tell me how much it costs, so I’ll
forget about
ever buying it!”
“Pfft, she must be flaunting the bare makeup look, but I’ll admit she is good at makeup!”
“You got to have good looks to start with! You can’t look like her just by applying makeup!”
The young people, who were mostly interested in entertainment news, did not realize that
they
were looking at Jasper Beckett, the president of the Beckett Group. His arrival in the cab
offered a
cover for his identity.
Standing in front of him coldly, Alyssa confronted him, “Mr. Beckett, you’re-”
He cut her off in a heavy tone, “I’m sorry.”
