Transmigrated hacker becomes a Solitude painter

Chapter 17: Meeting the ML

"and Amelia Hale"

Alyssa froze in shock when she heard that name

I made it to my bedroom door and before I opened it I glanced at Alyssa 

She had her head lowered and her fists clenched.

I narrowed my eyes on her before entering.

Bear happily trotted over and greeted me. I crouched down to give her a hug and she returned it with a kiss.

I stood back up and made my way to the bed tiredly.

I flopped down on my back and spread out like a starfish. I was lost in thought drifting back to the scene I saw early.

"Alyssa" I mused softly

'The thing about Alyssa is that she holds grudges to an enormous degree. If someone did something bad to her that wasn't even harmful, then she puts her hatred for that person on the same level as someone who killed her loved ones.  That goes for Amelia. In Alyssa’s first life she constantly bumped into Amelia because of her friendship with the twins and verbally bullied her. Though that's all Amelia did. She never took action against her or followed the twins plan's, but that doesn't matter to Alyssa. In her eyes Amelia is just as bad as the people who killed her. I understand Amelia shouldn't be excused for her actions, but they haven't even happened yet. Alyssa is blaming an action on a person they haven't even done yet. She doesn't even care why Amelia bullied her and has her killed later on in the story.'

A beastly growl was emitted from my throat as my eyes glowed menacingly

"She won't touch my family" I spoke with a freezing cold voice

The next morning I woke up with a start and got to painting right away and enjoyed stroking my brush for an hour before I was interrupted by Ceilia knocking on my door and peeking her head through.

"Jasmine can you do me a favor" 

I looked at her for a second and glanced back at my half finished painting sullenly

Ceilia saw my look and chuckled

"It won't take to long"

I sighed before getting up and standing in front of her.

Ceilia smiled gratefully before handing me a lunchbox.

"Alyssa left in a hurry today for the company and forgot her lunch. I was hoping you could deliver this to her. I have a meeting with a client so I can't" She explained to me

'The company' I thought ' were the ML is' dread filled me in seconds

'I don't want to meet that arrogant jerk. He's most likely hovering over Alyssa like a moth'

Ceilia seemed to see my hesitation and straightened herself elegantly. She crossed her arms like a scolding parent and stared at me like I was beneath her.

"Jasmine" She said my name sternly

I stared at her unflinching

'This would probably make others intimidated but I've seen scarier'

*sigh*

"Okay" I replied and took the lunchbox walking past her to exit the house

"A driver is waiting for you at the front. Oh! I also informed Alyssa you'll be coming" Ceilia called back

I stilled for a second and a small approval flashed in my eyes

'That sly lady, she knew I would expect from the start'

When I made it outside an elegant limousine was waiting for me with a chauffeur standing by the door. When he saw me he opened the door.

"Miss" He greeted

I nodded to him and entered, sitting comfortably on the squishy but firm leather seat.

'You know what. I can see why people want a limousine' I thought poking the seat with my finger, ' super comfy'

The car started and the scenery outside started to pass by. I sighed contentedly and leaned my elbow on the window resting my head in the palm of my hand.

After 15 minutes we arrived at a tall business building.

"Miss we're here. Elder miss should be at the top floor" The driver said

I got out of the car before he could and nodded my head in thanks. I entered the building filled with busy people rushing about.

I went to the front desk.

"I'm here for Alyssa Black" I told the receptionist 

She looked up at me and noticed my sweatpants and crop top. She openly scowled but didn't say anything.

She looked back down at her schedule and nodded.

" You can head right up to the top floor. She's in her office" She informed rudely

I completely ignored her existence and made my way to the stairs.

I arrived at the top and opened Alyssa’s door. What greeted me was Alyssa pressed up against the wall with Aaron caging her in with his hands on either side of her head. Both their clothes disheveled.
