Alice had left with Jonah and taken nothing with her, including the 20 million and the villa.
“Where’s Alice? Why isn’t she joining us for dinner?” Jasper’s father, Javier Beckett, asked.
“We’re divorced. The papers are already signed. We will go through the procedures soon and get the divorce certificate.” Jasper looked down as he answered.
Shocked, Javier asked, “Divorce? Why?”
“Javier, I told you Jasper and Alice aren’t a good match. Still, your father forced them to get married.” His wife, Sophia Kirkman, couldn’t help but sigh.
“She’s suffered a lot during these three years. It’s a good thing for them both that she’s finally let go. Now, they can live their own lives. You know that Jasper has always been in love with Lia.”
“Jasper, marriage isn’t child’s play. Moreover, she …”
“Dad, we’ve signed the divorce papers. Alice has also left, and she didn’t take anything with her.” Jasper frowned irritatedly.
“Whoa! That country bumpkin is quite principled.” Jasper’s sister, Betty Beckett, sneered. “Don’t tell me this is one of her tricks. I hope she doesn’t make up rumors that the Becketts mistreated her.”
When Jasper heard this, he became sullen.
“Jasper, I think you’ve acted rashly in this. Your grandfather is still sick. How are you going to explain this to him?” Javier couldn’t hold back his irritation as he was afraid that his father would be outraged by the divorce.
“I will publicly announce my marriage with Liana next month.”
Liana stared at Jasper’s handsome face. The happiness in her eyes was obvious.
“Absolute nonsense! How could you abandon your wife of three years so casually? Your reputation will be tarnished!”
“I never cared about such things. Alice White was never the woman I wanted to marry.” Jasper’s stance was firm, and he didn’t show a hint of regret.
