Alyssa heard the sounds of sighs all around her.
She lifted her long lashes. Her eyes met with Jasper's densely dark eyes. She had already been
enveloped in his arms. She shuddered as she felt the temperature of her skin rise slowly.
She could feel his warm breath on the tip of her nose. He looked down at her with a deep gaze.
He interlocked his fingers with hers quite stubbornly. Gracefully, he lifted his right arm and placed his
left arm around her waist.
She could feel his moist palm on her slender waist, which was almost soaking the thin fabric of her
outfit. He caressed her, getting a feel of the dainty waistline that was so attractive to him.
Alyssa's back was stiff while he whirled around carefreely.
Alyssa was someone who knew how to dance. However, at that moment, her entire body was numb.
Her breathing was shallow as she tried her best to follow his dance steps.
Her clumsy movements made Jasper smile. His heart fluttered.
"What ... What are you doing?"
Jasper leaned into her ear and whispered through his thin lips, "Were you going to dance with that wolf
if I hadn't appeared?" His breath was deep.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlyssa bit her red lips shyly. Her cheeks blushed pink, and she replied, "Aren't I dancing with a wolf
right now?"
"That's true. I'm also a wolf—one that would eat you up."
Jasper lifted his chin slightly. He straightened his back and turned around, almost lifting her off the
ground.
In a strong yet relaxed voice, he said, "Pay attention, Lyse. You should only fix your eyes on me."
This pair of well-matched figures became a sight that made everyone in the banquet hall gasp in awe.
They had stolen the limelight.
Alyssa was the only one who matched up to Jasper and vice versa.
All the women accepted their defeat, with Zoe as the exception.
Zoe was filled with so much hate that steam was coming out of her ears. Her eyes reddened with
hatred, but all she could do was stare at them. There was nothing she could do!
By the side, Zeke was fuming after he had been interrupted. He was also almost blowing his top.
Then the minister whom Ezzo brought walked over He said in a low and polite tone "Mr Zeke Mr
Ezzo said that you can choose Ms. Zoe Harper as your dance partner if you wish to.
"With consideration of the status of everyone here, she matches up to your level. Even though she isn't
as good-looking as Ms. Alyssa, she will certainly not embarrass you."
"Her? The one dolled up like a turkey with cheap makeup? I'd rather skip on the dance!"
Zeke was also someone who had a temper. He had no interest in Zoe at all. So, he left in a huff.
With Alyssa being dragged away by Jasper suddenly, Tatiana was left alone. She didn't quite know
what to do.
The moment they spotted that Tatiana was alone, the men observed her like wolves. They were ready
to pounce.
Then, they saw a figure limping toward Tatiana.
"Hey! Look, isn't that David from the Schmidt family?"
"It's really him! It's been a while since he came out. I thought that he had ..."
"I heard that he was involved in a serious accident and almost lost his life. The Schmidts begged the
famous Dr. White, who finally treated his injury. It's such a pity that he is now handicapped!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Last time, Mr. David was always on his high horse, looking down on everyone. Becoming crippled
must have taken a huge blow on him. He can't have his nose in the air now, can he?"
A week ago, David started to go crazy with his abdominal exercises. He donned an expensive suit and
styled his hair scrupulously with a 7:3 parting ratio.
He did all these to leave a good impression on Tatiana.
At the same time, he wanted to prove to the world that even with one less leg, he was still the same
classy David Schmidt!
Tatiana was alarmed to see him. She even took a small step back.
"Ms. Tatiana, I ..."
It was only after David was already in front of her that he remembered that he was crippled. He could
no longer dance.
Thus, he laughed bitterly and said, "You look bored being here all alone. Can I sit and chat with you to
keep you company?"
Tatiana's entire body tensed up. While she was hesitating, her cell phone started to vibrate.
She looked down at the screen. The sight of Sean's name invoked a prickling sensation in her heart.
