Chapter 220
Immediately, Jasper reached for the seatbelt and helped Alyssa fasten it.
She clenched her jaw and flinched as though she was in contact with filth. “Where are you bringing me?”
“Last night, we agreed on picking up your stuff from my place today.” He let go of her and leisurely placed his hands on the steering wheel.
“I will be there. You didn’t have to pick me up!”
“I don’t trust you.” He started the engine and stole a glance at her. “You’re a bloody good liar. How
many times did you lie to me in the past three years? Were you ever honest with me?”
“Had I never?” She smirked. “Think what you want. It doesn’t matter.”
Her words were like bullets to his chest. He felt chills in his body. Sometimes, he’d rather she had
never fallen for him. At least, he wouldn’t have felt guilty for his poor treatment of her.
The Ferrari sped on the highway as the scenic view passed them by in a blur.
Since Alyssa could not escape, she decided to take things as they came. She crossed her arms and
had a comfortable shut–eye after adjusting her seat.
She’d rather keep him out of her sight.
“I’m sorry about that.” He tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
“About what?”
Something was not quite right with Jasper ever since the divorce. He was stubborn as a donkey in
the past, but now, he would own up to his mistakes.
She couldn’t help but wonder if Liana had given him lessons on manners.
“I did not know that Jonah was your brother.”
“Ignorance is not a sin. You’re forgiven.” She was indifferent toward the matter.
“Why didn’t you explain yourself?” He examined her soft and lovely side profile.
“Would you have believed me if I insisted that he and I were innocent?”
He choked.

She shook her head. “The world is always hostile to women. If I were Alice White instead of
Jonah’s sister, you and everyone else in this world would think of me as a shameless gold–digger.
Was she implying that she no longer loved and cared for him?
