Chapter 153

Alyssa and her dance partner held hands and bowed to the audience when the dance ended.

Her captivating dance elevated the cocktail party into a high–end ball.

Liana was green with envy when she heard everyone praising Alice. In her teens, she was once a talented pianist who was good at singing and dancing too. For that, she had won many awards.

However, after going abroad, she busied herself with dating and having fun to the point where she abandoned her practice.

“Jasper, wasn’t Ms. White awesome? But I don’t think it’s appropriate for her to dance in public in that revealing dress. I would have been too ashamed to do that.”

Her attempts at backstabbing Alyssa were of no use because Jasper was nowhere to be found when she turned around.

Jasper shuffled to the backstage corridor. Despite his best efforts at self–control, he could not shut down the imagery of Alice’s allure in his mind. His throat was getting dry.

He forced himself not to think of his behavior as falling for her. He believed he was emotional because he was angry at Alice for challenging him and lying to him over and over.

All of a sudden, he overheard an excited male voice from a corner. “My dance partner today had a freaking tiny waist! How exciting! I’ve never held a woman with a waist that tiny in my entire life!”

The compliment sounded wrong to Jasper, who immediately got triggered. The male dancer turned around when he heard the clicking of leather shoes and immediately received a punch to his face.

*Ouch!”

As a military veteran, Jasper effortlessly sent the male dancer sailing in the air with a punch. The poor dancer winced on the ground and moaned in pain.

“How dare you dream of touching her?” Jasper smirked and demanded coldly. “Who do you think you are?”
