“Mr. Jasper, you’re blessed to have such an amazing wife as Madam Alice.”
Jasper looked dazed at that moment. He thought he could see Alice looking up at him with doe-
like eyes that looked innocent yet aggrieved at the same time.
She would never care about him ever again. It would be a lie if Jasper claimed he wasn’t
disappointed at all.
“Alice isn’t a blessing. She’s a curse.”
Jasper returned to his bedroom gloomily. To his surprise, he noticed a box sitting on the coffee
table.
He recognized it immediately as a package from the tailor. So he opened the box while thinking
that his suit was patched.
As expected, the fancy suit was laid within the box.
It looked brand new. Jasper couldn’t spot any stitches on the fabric. The tailor in charge of
patching up his suit was very skilled, to say the least.
He couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction.
“Mr. Jasper, you still care about Madam Alice, right?” Mrs. Rosie asked happily upon noticing Jasper’s smile.
“I like the suit she gave me. It’s a good suit, after all. I don’t want to let it go to waste,” Jasper
replied coldly. His thumb caressed the collar, which was ironed neatly.
“Madam Alice has put in a lot of effort just to make you happy, sir.”
Mrs. Rosie let out a small sigh while looking quite distressed. “Please come with me.”
The pair soon arrived at Alice’s old room.
Mrs. Rosie opened the innermost door of the huge closet. “Take a look at the closet, Mr. Jasper.”
There were multiple shelves installed within the floor–to–ceiling closet. Boxes of various sizes and
colors were stacked neatly on top of those shelves,
Jasper was surprised to see such a sight. “What are those boxes?”
“These are the gifts Madam Alice had prepared for you during the past three years.”
Jasper’s body trembled in shock.
“Each of these gifts marked a special occasion of the year. For example, your birthday, Valentine’s

day of your first meeting with her.”
Mrs. Rosie continued, “She’d prepare a gift for you regardless of the occasion. Madam Alice knew
that you never cared about her effort. But she insisted on preparing them no matter what. It was
as though she was trying to make a tradition out of it.”
Jasper widened his eyes even more. At that moment, he felt quite stuffy inside.
“I may not understand what sort of love Ms. Gardner has for you, but Madam Alice truly loves you
from the bottom of her heart. I’m not being biased here, Mr. Jasper. I will continue to support the
young madam for as long as I live, I don’t care about Ms. Gardner at all.”
“You spent so much effort creating that necklace for Ms. Gardner, yet they sold it right away! Why

Jasper clenched his fists tightly. He felt bitter.
At that point, he wondered if he was just coming up with an excuse to defend Liana.
“You can keep feigning ignorance all you want, Mr. Jasper.”
Mrs. Rosie shook her head in disappointment before leaving Alice’s room with a sigh.
Jasper remained rooted to the spot. He had mixed feelings about Alice now that he had found out
the truth.
It appeared that Alice was just pretending to be compassionate and gentle during their marriage.
She had feelings just like any other human being. She was capable of getting mad and jealous as
well.
But at the same time, she also cared about Jasper.
It was just that Alice decided to conceal her emotions from everyone.
Then again, if she truly used to care about Jasper, why couldn’t he see even a trace of warmth in
her cold eyes?
Jasper could only grit his teeth silently while feeling his jaw going tense. A mask of reluctance
now took over his face.
