Sebastian understood what Alyssa wanted.

There wasn't substantial proof to prove that Jasper had abused drugs in the first place. The substance found in his blood was simply supporting evidence.

As long as they found the right opportunity to reveal that, it wouldn't completely exonerate him, but it could at least divert public suspicion.

After emerging from the Bender residence, Landon took Zayne away to keep him under close watch and ensure Sebastian wouldn't retract his statement. Landon planned to release him only after Sebastian fulfilled Jasper and Alyssa's request. "Landon, it's really nice to see you. How's Lauren doing lately?" Afraid of looking at Jasper, Alyssa had no choice but to speak with Landon.

"She's doing great."
