Chapter 20
The next day, Alyssa woke up and vomited again.
“Lyse, I remember you used to have a good tolerance for alcohol. How did it get so bad?” Silas hurriedly handed her a glass of water and brought her some hangover medicine.
“I haven’t had a drink in three years and suddenly drank so much yesterday. Of course, I couldn’t
handle it.”
Alyssa knew Jasper disliked women reeking of alcohol, so she quit drinking during their three years of marriage.
“If I didn’t know you were dunk last night, I would have thought you were pregnant,” Silas teased
her.
“Haha. What would you guys do if I really got pregnant with Jasper’s child?” A subtle look of pain flashed across her eyes.
“What else can we do? Of course, we’ll take care of the child together. Regardless of who the father
of the baby is, it’s innocent.”
Although Silas hated Jasper to the core, his values were upright, probably due to his profession as
a legal practitioner.
“Don’t worry. Do you think I’ll want to bear Jasper’s child?” Alyssa sneered and took a sip of water
to clear her throat.
Silas asked, “By the way, do you remember what happened last night?”
“I remember I got into trouble with Dylan, and it seems like… Jasper came? After that, I don’t remember anything.”
“You really don’t remember?”
“I think I saw a handsome guy helping me out. Gosh, I was too drunk at the time. Otherwise, I would have definitely asked for his number.”
“That was Landon. We went to his newly opened club last night.”
As soon as Alyssa heard the name of the infamous Landon, she lost all interest. “Forget it. That kid
is a disaster wherever he goes.
“Do you know that Jasper dragged you into the men’s restroom after that?”
Alyssa widened her eyes in shock.
“I don’t know what you two were up to, but when I went in, I saw you hugging him and wiping your nose on his body.” Silas shook his head repeatedly, unable to bear the memories.
