If Landon were to hear what Jasper just said, he would probably laugh at him.

"Good-for-nothing!"

"Useless president!"

"Polyandry?"

Alyssa narrowed her eyes at him. She tickled him on his chin with her fingers and tilted his chin up. "Would you be happy with that, Mr. Jasper?"

“No, I won't.”

Jasper looked her in the eyes with his fiery gaze. He then gulped. The bob in his Adam's apple was exceptionally sexy. “But I know that I don't deserve it."

If he didn't deserve it, who did?

That said, The Taylors always maintained a level of conservativeness. Although Alyssa's heart was racing, she uttered in a neutral tone, "Also, what are you doing? Is this a proposal?"

Jasper pursed his lips and didn't reply.

"Others would usually have a romantic proposal and an expensive ring. I've never seen anyone hold a brush and a broken one at that." Alyssa put her hand on her hip, making herself look as if she was mad at him. Jasper clenched his hands into fists. The brush's bristles dug into his palm.

He recalled the time when Alyssa married him in the past. There was no proposal and no wedding ceremony. All she had with her was her luggage when she moved into Seaview Manor quietly. Even the three-carat wedding ring was just a tool for formality's sake. He didn't put any heart into choosing that ring. Yet, she wore it every day and treated it like a treasure.

He was indebted to her. Time and time again, he was covered by all the debt he owed her.

It was his dream to marry her. However, till today, he couldn't bring himself to say those few words openly—"Alyssa, marry me."

Right at this moment, Alyssa’s phone buzzed.
