I didn't know you were waiting for me,” Alyssa said with a blush. Yves grinned. “Don't sweat it. You've had a busy night.”She then wrapped an arm around Alyssa’s shoulders, making the two look quite like close friends. Shesaid to the reporters, “Come on, where are our photos?”Alyssa was just as shocked as everyone else.This was the first time a cold, terrifying, dominating woman like Yves had initiated a photo with someoneelse.The reporters thought that Alyssa must be someone special or unique to have caught her attention How tremendous!Betty and Zoe were devastated, especially the latter, who felt shame burst inside her veins like fireworks.Why?Why was this happening?Why were all the famous, influential, powerful people flocking toward Alyssa?Zoe couldn't figure out why.Alyssa did her best to appear calm and happy while taking the photo with Yves, though her heart waspounding against her ribcage like an excited little beast. Her image should have gained some positivity bynow.After taking the photo, Yves and Alyssa went somewhere private to converse.“Thank you so much, Madam Yves,” Alyssa said, her tone sincere.Alyssa continued, “I'm sure you saw the trouble I was in earlier with the other reporters. Your gestureearlier signified your approval of me and thus helped me regain my footing.”“Ms. Alyssa.“i know we're on the same team in this event. Your helping me will also ensure the event goes smoothlyand well Alyssa smiled. Regardless, I'm still deeply grateful.”“I didn't help you just because we're working together, Ms. Alyssa.” Yves’ tone and gaze were filled with a kind, caring warmth. “Your brother Jonah asked me to help you and watch over you tonight.” Shock flitted across Alyssa’s gaze.Jonah was always like this, taking care of her even when he wasn't around.

That wasn't very kind of him!“I know how large an impact your hotel has suffered since Ada stopped working with you.” Yves took offher shades, her expression now serious.Yves continued, “I can ask her to reconsider later. We've known each other for years.”“No, no, please don't!” Alyssa shook her head. “You've helped so much already. I couldn't possibly acceptmore!”"Are you worried you'll owe me one, girl?” Yves smiled, patting her shoulder reassuringly. “Don't be. I'mdoing all this of my own volition.“There is no such thing as owing any favors. Jonah has told you about my feelings for him, hasn't he?”Alyssa nodded, biting her lip.“He loves you dearly. You're the most important person in his life right now. That means you're importantto me, too.“I've loved him for ten years but never sought anything in return. All I ask is that he continues letting me do so, nothing more.” Share to your friends Chapter 438 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.Tap the middle of the screen to reveal Reading Options.
