Capítulo 271: More Than You Know

Alyssa's hands trembled as she walked away from her cousin. She could still feel the weight of Alexander's harsh words echoing in her mind, and the fear of him truly cutting ties with her left her shaken. 

"What on earth did Carla say to him?" she whispered to herself, her mind racing. She had genuinely thought Carla wanted to talk to Alexander for closure, something private she couldn't share in public. But now, seeing how dark and furious Alexander had looked, she began to wonder if Carla had other intentions. 

As she walked, Alyssa noticed Rain and Sanya in her path. Embarrassed, she averted her gaze and pretended not to see them, her face flushed with shame. In that moment, she made a silent vow: this would be the last time she'd involve herself in anything between Carla and Alexander. She couldn't risk her family's trust again, not after Alexander's warning.
