Alyssa said, "I believe that Amber is a pawn Jameson prepared long ago. Even if not, he might haveforcibly deprived her of her original face and turned her into me just to satisfy his despicable desiresbecause he can't get me."

Alyssa trembled with anger in Jasper's embrace. "It's understandable if she became even morebeautiful after the surgery. But who would willingly become someone else's substitute and lose theirtrue self?

"Does she truly accept walking in the sunlight, only to be pointed at and called Alyssa Taylor? Doyou know what that means? It means, in this world, that girl named Amber is dead even if she’s stillalive.”

Jasper felt a chill run down his spine instantly.

"Now, she's secretly passing evidence to us through Axel. That's her act of rebellion. She's no longerwilling to submit to Jameson and be a ridiculous stand-in."

"That makes sense. I've never thought of that, Lyse."

After pondering for a moment, Jasper suddenly asked with concern, "Do you think that Axel mightdevelop feelings for Amber after their interaction?”

"No, Axel is even more immune to love than Jonah," Alyssa replied without hesitation.

"Jonah has been single for so many years because he likes men, while Axel is because of the natureof his profession.

"He told me before that in order to complete the tasks assigned by the organization, he hasseduced 80, if not 100 women over the course of a year. He's immune to love a long time ago.”"80?" Jasper was dumbfounded by the astonishing number. "Is Axel's body... okay?"

"What are you thinking?"

Alyssa poked his forehead with her finger. "Axel sells his talent but not his body, okay? Anyway,don't worry. What you're worried about will never happen.”

Early the next morning, Rose went out to buy groceries.

She returned to the kitchen in her studio while humming happily as she prepared meals and snacksfor Alyssa.

As lunchtime approached, she was about to call Alyssa when her assistant rushed in.

"Ms. Emerson, there's a visitor.”

"Do we have an appointment?”

"No."

"Did you just start working with me yesterday? My rule is no appointments, no meetings."

The assistant frowned helplessly. "I told her, but this lady is very stubborn. She said she'll stay hereuntil she sees you."

"What the hell? What kind of shrew is that?"

With her hands on her hips, Rose decisively waved her hand. "Forget about her. Let her do whatevershe wants. If she can stay until nighttime, I'll prepare a sleeping bag for her.”

The assistant nodded reluctantly. Just as she was about to leave, Rose stopped her.

"Do you know who that woman is?"

"She said her name is Clarissa Sparks, the wife of the Schmidt family's eldest son.”

At the mention of the Schmidt family, Rose's gaze instantly darkened. She took off her apron atonce. "Take her to my office. I'll meet with her."
