Chapter 98
After replying to Newton’s question, Jasper moved to stand next to Alyssa. He stared at her quietly.
He could still see tear tracks on her pretty face. Her hair covered half of her face, making her look
even more pitiful and frail.
Alyssa blushed in embarrassment:
Another teardrop dripped off her eyelashes at that moment.
Jasper’s focus was now on Alyssa’s eyelashes. He could feel his chest heaving slightly as he
stared at her eyelashes in a daze.
“Hurry up and apologize to your wife, you st* pid brat!” Newton urged angrily.
“Why do I have to apologize to her? I didn’t make her cry.” Jasper frowned in confusion.
Newton widened his eyes furiously. “Alice’s your wife, damn it! Are you expecting me to comfort
your own wife? Are you that st* pid?”
“Grandpa, Jasper and I are already divorced, so I’m not his-”
“I don’t care! He never did anything for you during your three–year marriage! He owes you that
apology from the start!”
Newton’s expression darkened when he heard the word “divorce.” A look of frustration and pain
soon took over his features.
“Jasper, if you don’t apologize to Alice right now, I’ll disown you!”
Jasper pursed his lips tightly for a short while. Finally, he said softly, “Sorry.”
Alyssa widened her red and puffy eyes in response. She could feel her heart hammering inside
her.
For the first time ever, Jasper actually apologized to her.
It was a shame that he didn’t mean what he said.
“This time, I want you to perform a gentleman’s bow in front of Alice while apologizing to her!”
Newton demanded
“Is that really necessary?” Jasper could feel a wave of irritation washing over him.
“You should count your lucky stars that I didn’t force you to prostrate! I used to do the same thing to your grandmother back in the day!
“Alice is my beloved granddaughter–in–law, so you’d better apologize sincerely! Now hurry up!”

Jasper had no choice but to comply with his grandfather’s wishes. He took half a step backward with his hands firmly placed by his sides. Then, he leaned forward and dipped his head slightly to perform the perfect gentleman’s bow.
“I’m truly sorry, Ms. White. I’m the one at fault.”
Newton couldn’t help but smirk when he witnessed Jasper’s antics. At that moment, he wished
that Jasper and Alyssa could become a couple again.
Just as Jasper was about to straighten up, Newton issued his next order. “You’d better stay in that position until Alice says so! You’re only allowed to straighten up once she gives the order!”
