Chapter 227

Sean was pacing anxiously outside the Seaview Manor. When Alyssa emerged with a suitcase, he

hurried over to help her with it.

“Ms. Alyssa, that bastard did not trouble you, did he?”

She frowned at him. “You should quit the habit of calling him a bastard in private. What if you blurted that out when we were in a business meeting with him? That’d be a serious gaffe!”

“Okay,” he answered glumly.

“He wouldn’t have the guts to do anything to me unless he wants me to rip him into pieces.” She cracked her knuckles.

Sean was tickled by her antics. He grew concerned at the sight of the slippers on her feet. “Why did you wear-”

“I was in a rush when I left and forgot to change my shoes.”

If she wanted, she could have worn any pair of her white sneakers on the shoe rack by the door before leaving. However, she stubbornly refused to change into any of her shoes at Seaview Manor to express her disgust and aversion to Jasper and their three years of marriage.

Alice White was the owner of those sneakers carefully laid out on the shoe rack. Alyssa Taylor would never wear Alice’s old shoes again–her current footwear of choice was luxurious and showy heels.

Of course, just like her refusal to wear the old shoes, she’d never rekindle an old flame as well.
