Chapter 173


    “You have no idea. Lester is different from you. His heart and eyes are only for me. He gives me what I

    want, and he’d never dare to go against my wishes. He’s gentle, considerate, and most importantly,


    incredibly generous.”


    Sasha, feeling troubled inside, was not about to let Jameson off easily.


    Knowing how high his pride was and his dislike for being outdone, she deliberately praised Lester in


    front of him.


    What she said wasn’t an exaggeration. In business, Lester indeed doted on her.


    Even in personal life, Lester was especially indulgent with her, and for the sake of both their families,


    he wouldn’t contradict her words.


    Therefore, she felt even more emboldened.


    Jameson’s face visibly darkened, and his hands, unknowingly, had clenched into fists, clearly


    distressed.


    “Is he really that good?”


    “I don’t know how he is with others, but I know he’s incredibly good to me.”


    “Wake up, Sasha. Lester is known for his reputation as a y boy. His intentions for you. might not be


    sincere; he’s probably just enamored with your beauty.”


    Sashaughed upon hearing this. She had never heard Jamesonpliment her looks. before. With


    his attitude of avoiding her like the gue, she had almost thought herself


    a monster.


    A man’s pride indeed can be strong. Even if they no longer care, they can still utter insincere words in


    the face of a rival.


    Sasha, still smiling cheerfully, didn’t believe the words Jameson said.


    “So what if it’s temporary? It’s a rtionship of mutual consent.”


    “How can you be so naive? If his feelings aren’t genuine, he could end up betraying you


    in the future.”


    “What could he betray in me now? I have nothing left to lose. He, the distinguished second son of the


    Peyer family and the CEO of Thysha Corporation, is extraordinarily handsome and capable. And me?


    I’m just a woman discarded by a wealthy family, a divorcee. No matter how you look at it, isn’t he the


    one at a disadvantage?”


    Jameson’s expression darkened to a grim extent, looking as if he might explode at any


    moment.


    In the past, Sasha would have never dared to speak so freely, but now, she found it liberating.


    “Don’t be self-deprecating. You…”


    “It’s not self-deprecation. It’s just the truth.” Sasha interrupted him, saying, “Honestly, whether Lester is


    sincere or not, I’m grateful for his kindness towards me.


    “He’s shown me that blind devotion is foolish. I am not inferior. I wasn’t born to be tram pled upon.”


    Herst statement, indirect yet pointed, was harsh.


    Jameson’s pupils constricted, feeling a bitter taste in his heart.


    Having vented her frustration, Sasha didn’t want to prolong their interaction and earnestly exined,


    “I’m not Suzie, and I can’t help you. Since you know I’m with Lester now, please refrain from bothering


    me in the future. I don’t want him to get the wrong idea.”


    It felt like a heavy hammer had struck Jameson’s chest, filling his heart with immense sorrow, the


    reasons for which he couldn’t clearly articte.


    Sasha waited there for a while, and seeing that Jameson didn’t speak again, she suddenly smiled.


    “Then, thank you, Mr. Leigh, for letting go. Let’s both move on and live well separately.” After saying


    this, she turned and walked away, her departing figure showing no trace of lingering attachment.


    Not long after Sasha left, Henry arrived with others to find Jameson.


    Seeing Jameson’s distressed expression and his sudden bend at the waist, Henry quickly approached,


    supporting him and asking anxiously, “Mr. Leigh, are you alright?”
