"What happened?" The look in Jasper's eyes hardened. He silently met Alyssa's eyes.

"Just now, Victor and Josh Schmidt bailed him out from the police station. Not only that, they brought

along a group of reporters with them.

"Josh shamelessly cleared David's name in front of the media, claiming that someone had framed

David. He said it was all a misunderstanding." Xavier's voice broke due to his rage.

"Fuck! How did that happen?" Alyssa jumped up from the bed. Jasper went pale and hurriedly pinned

her back onto the bed. "Lyse, be careful! You don't want the needle to come off."

"How is that possible? That fucking pervert couldn't have been released from the police station." Alyssa

grabbed the phone and yelled at Xavier in panic, "Jasper and I have made the arrangements. Winston

knew about this as well. Knowing how much he cares for Taty, there's no way he would allow the

Schmidts to do so. Why didn't he stop them?"

"M-Madam, please calm down," Xavier croaked, his throat dry from the panic. "I'm still looking into the

situation. Please wait for my updates."

After the call, Alyssa couldn't help but contact Cyrus. Before she could dial Cyrus' number, in a sudden

moment of telepathy, a call came in.

Staring at the screen of Jasper's phone, Alyssa felt her heart thumping wildly. She pressed her lips.

"Lyse, who's that?" Jasper hurriedly questioned upon seeing how upset she became.

"It's... Jonah."

Jasper pressed his lips nervously. Soon, he coaxed her gently, "Lyse, answer his call. You shouldn't

keep him worried."

Still reeling from the aversion against her brothers' controlling streak, she answered the call with a

hostile attitude, "Don't waste your time trying to get me home. Keep it short if it's about something

else."

Jonah's expression froze, engulfed by pain. Alyssa had always treated him with love, even in calls.

She'd call his name sweetly.

Now, their relationship had deteriorated into a tense and distant state. The more he wanted to protect

her, the more he pushed her away.

He began, sounding as gentle as usual, "Lyse, Axel told us about your situation. If you're safe and

happy with him, I won't stop you."

"Jonah." Alyssa held her breath. She was surprised by the change in his attitude.

"Lyse, you were right for being angry at me. I was overprotective because I felt guilty for not taking

good care of you. Because of that, I took away your right to love."

Chuckling in pain, he added, "I repeatedly asked myself in the past two days—what is it that I'm after? I

realize that all I want is for you to be happy. Happiness can't be forced or measured. If pampering you

means giving you what you want, I'll give you freedom by letting go."

She choked up in shock. "Jonah..."

Jasper's eyes brimmed with tears upon hearing Jonah's sincere confession.

Jonah promised, "I'll try my best to persuade Liam. As for Dad." After a pause, he said, "One day, he'll

get over it when he sees that you're living well. Jasper, you know what to do next, right?"

"I know. Don't worry," Jasper rasped and pulled Alyssa into a hug. "She's my one and only. I'll treat her

well no matter what it takes."
