Though Betty had called Lauren an idiot throughout her life, the latter wasn't stupid.Upon hearing the words "living together", she slightly shivered. The lingering sweetness of orange juice suddenly became bitter.Landon secretly squeezed her slightly cool hand, holding it tightly. "Dad, I admit I used to have a less-than-exemplary private life. But won't you give me a chance to turn over a new leaf and start anew?"Besides, I might have been a playboy, but I've never brought any woman to my home before. Lauren is the first and the last.""Landon, what I mean is—""To be honest, I can't live without Lauren now."Landon's chest was filled with a strong sense of love. He imprinted a passionate kiss on the back of Lauren's hand, and his eyes were filled with affection. "If I don't see her for a day, I'm afraid I'll go crazy."His low and gentle voice flowed into Lauren's ear like a gentle stream. She felt her heart was being teased by a soft feather, tingling and ticklish.She f

When Landon touched Lauren's slender back, he realized sweat had soaked through her clothes. His eyes contracted, and his heart seemed to sink, making it difficult to breathe.He had forced her too much. He shouldn't have let her dwell on the painful past, always thinking about revenge.Landon didn't want to let her beloved Lauren do anything. He decided to handle everything."Is ... your sister bullying you?" Javier suddenly asked. His question pierced Lauren's trembling heart like a sharp arrow.She lowered her head and ruffled the folds of her skirt in silence."Is it true? Has Betty been bullying you all along? Tell me. I'll stand up for you.""Dad, you know Lauren's situation. She's not like Ms. Betty, who can sweet-talk and please you. Sometimes, Lauren is too kind and doesn't want to make things awkward with her family."So, she can only live cautiously, silently enduring all the humiliation."Landon couldn't bear to watch any longer. With a cool gaze, he said, "It has b

Just then, someone knocked at the door. Betty's sickly, sweet voice floated through. "Are you in there, Dad?""Come in."Betty opened the door and walked in with a plate of snacks. She was smiling widely."I'm sorry for causing you trouble today. I specially prepared some of your favorite fruits and treats to seek your forgiveness. Please don't be angry at me anymore, okay?"Betty set the plate on the table. She then went over to Javier, intending to act spoiled like she used to whenever Javier got angry at her for causing trouble.But this time, Javier stopped her with a raised hand. "I hope this is the last time you ever misbehave in a manner unbefitting someone of your status. You're Ms. Betty Beckett, not some rich, disrespectful warlord. You have to behave in a classy manner. Otherwise, how would you be any different from a mad woman?" Javier chastised.Betty's arms were left hanging awkwardly in mid-air. Her smile was dry and pitiful. "Yes, Dad. I won't misbehave again."

Jeffrey was tossing and turning restlessly in East Solana Federal Prison. It was now midnight, and it had been days since Alyssa and Jasper paid him a visit. However, he had spent every night unable to fall asleep, continually thinking back to all that Alyssa had said to him.Her offer to him had been too tantalizing. It made him waver, even though it was likely a trick.But Jeffrey despised Alyssa and Jasper too much. He hated what a perfect match they were, how powerful and rich they were. One was a wealthy business magnate in Solana City, the other a multifaceted heiress.Just the thought of them angered Jeffrey to no end. Plus, it was still their fault that he was in jail right now.With nowhere to vent his anger, Jeffrey could only hope Sophia continued giving them the hell out in the world.

"You … " Alyssa could sense the desire in Jasper's tone. Her heart skipped a beat as she blushed."Ahem … Congratulations on your recovery, Mr. Beckett. I'll be leaving first. You two can rest here in my office in the meantime. Goodbye!" Abel said.Abel had three kids of his own. He knew what the youth these days had on their minds. He'd truly be dumb if he didn't leave Alyssa and Jasper alone now."Don't, Dr. Liverton. I-I still have something I want to ask you about. I'll come with you!" Alyssa quickly tried to run away from Jasper, face still flushed. The moment she did, however, Jasper's hands clasped her tightly against his waist, making her unable to pull away."Oh, no. You're Dr. White, after all. I'm the one who has a lot to learn from you. Please don't put this stress on me!" Abel said as he inched out the door. He was right about to close it."Wait for me! We can learn from one another!" Alyssa cried, shoving Jasper away with a firm push like a prey running away from i

Before Jasper finished speaking, Alyssa wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips.Jasper felt like he was on cloud nine. He was able to hold his desire back at first, but as Alyssa deepened their kiss, his mind went blank. He pressed her into the bed, tearing away her black dress.Alyssa had taken the initiative, but in the end, she surrendered to Jasper's fervent desire.She felt like she was alight in flame, burning every inch of her being.Her waist was so sore, yet her heart felt warm and sweet.Alyssa and Jasper made love until the wee hours of the morning before falling asleep together. They slept in until the sun was in the middle of the sky.Jasper was the first to awaken.

He just lay there and watched his beloved sleep.When Jasper read stories back then, he never understood why kings could abandon their kingdoms all to spend

Xavier's booming voice traveled far, allowing Alyssa to overhear it. "Dr. McAlister, I have something to attend to here. I'll contact you again after!" Alyssa hung up hurriedly. She immediately looked at Jasper with gleaming eyes. The corners of his lips turned up slightly. He stroked the top of her head and asked, "How did he finally come to his senses?" "Just last night, Jeffrey was attacked by his cellmate. He was stabbed in his neck with a toothbrush! Lucky for him, some competent prison guards on patrol came by. Only then was he saved in time!" Jasper looked straight into Alyssa's eyes. "How is his condition now, then?" he asked. "He was transported to the hospital for treatment. Once he surpassed the critical period, he made a fuss about meeting you and Madam. My guess is that he was scared shitless!" Xavier sniggered coldly, "He has just been in prison for a few days, and there's already been an attempt on his life. How is he going to get through the 20 long years
Can't Win Me Back Chapter 1067
Oh, God! Alyssa might as well have been the one to be hospitalized for a few days! …It was already dark when Jasper and Alyssa walked out of the prison entrance after meeting with Jeffrey. Even though it was already spring, the morning and evening breezes in Solana City were still quite cool. Jasper removed his coat and put it on Alyssa. Then, he put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. They stood in the night, listening to the sound of rustling leaves in the wind. They held calm expressions on their faces, but deep down, waves of restlessness surged. After a long time, Alyssa finally said, "He admitted it." "Yeah, he revealed everything." Jasper's hand was still on her shoulder. His uneasiness finally simmered down, and he said, "Everything is about to come to an end." "No, not yet. We still don't know where Inigo is." "But, Inigo is not working for Sophia. His statement isn't going to be very helpful in Jeffrey's case." Alyssa looked up at him with

Jonah's gaze burned with a mix of longing, sorrow, and something deeply affectionate. The world swam back into focus as Julien looked at Jonah. Without preamble, he asked, "Are you new? How much do you charge per night?"Light-headed and grinning, Julien reached out a hand, his fingers brushing softly against Jonah's cheek. "You're pretty good-looking," he said, his voice slurred. Then his expression shifted. "Why do you… look so much like someone I hate with every fiber of my being?"Jonah's heart clenched. Even so, he slid his arms around Julien's waist. Trembling, he pulled Julien into his arms. "I'm new here. Could you help me meet my target tonight, Mr. Lovelace?"Julien's eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Jonah. Jonah's eyes teared up as he held Julien's waist tightly. "I promise you won't be disappointed," he said, his voice deep. Watching from the shadows below the stage, Evan nearly gagged at Jonah's sultry tone. Was this really the Judas he knew? The man sounded downri

The bar was alive with striking lights and thundering music, and the air was thick with the scent of tobacco and alcohol. The atmosphere was one of moral decay—corrupt, degrading, and vile. "Where's Julien?" Jonah's voice cut through the noise, his tone icy and sharp. When Jonah stepped inside, the eyes of several men turned toward him, their gazes filled with illicit intent."Why, hello there. Are you here alone? Are you feeling lonely?" A sexy man sauntered over, draping himself over Jonah's shoulders. He let his hands linger with a playful squeeze. "If you're bored, I'd be happy to keep you company." Jonah's expression darkened. His hands trembled, veins bulging with barely contained rage. Suddenly, Evan burst through the crowd, his face twisting in alarm at the sight of Jonah surrounded by a swarm of predatory men. Evan yelled, "Don't touch him!" A heavy thump reverberated through the room. Gasps erupted as people scrambled back.The man who had draped himself over

Rafe stated, "But Beckett Group is in the middle of a storm right now. If I insisted on giving your corporation the project, my superiors would investigate me. I wouldn't be able to escape unscathed!""If you're investigated, I'll make sure you can still live a life of luxury—even if you lose your job." Justin's tone darkened. "But if you turn against me, you won't just suffer a few losses. You'll lose everything."Under the dim moonlight, Justin fiddled with his antique tea cup, his gaze narrowing. "You've worked so hard to get to where you are. Are you prepared to lose it all?"After ending the call, Justin turned to Remy, who stood quietly at the side. "Sheryl is still being detained. She can't be bailed out for another two days. I need someone to watch over the research lab. You'll handle that."Remy was taken aback. "I failed my last mission. Aren't you going to punish me?"Justin's smile was cold and insincere. "It wasn't your fault. You were ambushed. If not for that, I tru

Remy pursed his lips, bending down to pick up the fallen poker card. It was the King of Spades—an entry pass to Kings' Club. "My attacker was…" Remy's pupils constricted as he tightened his grip on the card. "It can only be that dear uncle of mine, always claiming to see me as his own son." Justin's lips curled into a sinister smile. "He's trying to get rid of my right-hand man, taking advantage of my internal feud with Jasper. Weakening me is just his first step toward gaining control over me."He's been a fugitive ever since his successful prison break, never returning to Cyrris after receiving his life sentence. His power base remains in Kontina. "I'm the last surviving Dutton. The Dutton Group, as a cover, has declared bankruptcy and severed all ties with the country.

The hospital ward grew heavy with silence. Mandy and Neil stared at Alyssa, stunned beyond words. "M-Ms. Alyssa, you knew that man was Mr. Damien?" Neil asked, disbelief etched into his voice. "Yes." Alyssa's reply was quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper. "We found out when Cyrus took Damien's cigarette butt for a paternity test."Mandy approached Alyssa, her shoulders trembling slightly. "So, you and Cyrus knew… and you both kept it from me?" Mandy said, her voice catching in her throat, tears welling up. Alyssa felt a sharp pang in her chest. "Mandy, I'm sorry. It was my decision. Cyrus had nothing to do with it."Mandy's tears fell freely now, her grief spilling out in raw sobs. "Do you know what it's been like for me all these years, thinking Damien was gone? Winston, Miley, Lyla, and Colene kept telling me to move on. I tried to accept that he was dead, that we'd never find his body. But I never did."Her vo

The hospital ward was bathed in a dim, yellow glow from the bedside lamp. The silence was thick, yet the room held a strange warmth—an unfamiliar comfort that felt oddly familiar to Remy.Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to sit up. His eyes fell on Mandy, who was asleep beside his bed. Her hair was a mess, and her swollen eyes suggested she'd been crying. She was sound asleep. Remy stiffened. His breath quickened as he stared at her fragile figure. Slowly, he leaned forward, his fingers lifting slightly, tempted to reach out.Just as his hand hovered close, Mandy's lashes fluttered. In her sleep, she murmured, "Damien… Damien… I miss you so much…" Tears slipped down her cheeks, silent and unbidden.A pang tugged at Remy's heart. Without thinking, he brushed away her tears with his calloused fingers. The moment his skin touched hers, a jolt shot through him, sharp and electrifying. Pain throbbed at his temples, but beneath it was a warmth he didn't want to let g

Justin's casual question hit Javier like a thunderclap. Shock rippled through him, freezing his expression. His voice trembled with fear as he barked, "What nonsense is that? Are you accusing me of causing Chester's death? I'm your father—how could you think I'd do such a thing?""It's not an accusation. Just the facts," Justin replied coolly, crossing his legs and savoring his tea with unsettling calm. "And I'm not condemning you. In fact, I understand why you did it. I'm facing the same dilemma now."Javier's breathing grew ragged. He had watched Justin grow from a child into the man before him—now a predator, circling with quiet menace."You were meant to be the heir as the eldest son," Justin continued, his voice smooth as silk. "But Grandpa favored Uncle Chester, handing him major projects, grooming him in plain sight. "Uncle Chester's reputation soon eclipsed yours. He was a natural leader, adept at business, with one fatal flaw—he was kind. Too kind. Unlike you."Justin

Nonetheless, night had fallen by the time Justin arrived at Seaview Manor. On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible. Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully. He had never lost contact with Remy before. Justin's face was as dark as the night itself. The moment he stepped inside Seaview Manor, Rory approached with a solemn expression. He gave a slight bow before speaking. "Mr. Justin, what took you so long? Mr. Javier has been waiting.""I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back here yet?" A conflicted look came across Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. I doubt he'll want to see you anytime soon—or show up here.""Is that so? How disappointing."Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he se

Jonah scoured every corner of the hotel, desperation clawing at his chest, but Julien was nowhere to be found. "Jonah!" Alyssa called out, breathless as she caught up to him. She grabbed his arm. "Calm down! I'll help you search for Jul!""I can't find him. He's gone," Jonah murmured, sinking to the floor. His tears mixed with sweat, creating dark patches on the ground. "Lyse… I fear… if I can't find Julien this time, I'll lose him forever."The agonizing thought of losing the love of his life pierced him. "No, you won't!" Alyssa gripped his arm tighter, her voice trembling with conviction. "If Jul had given up on you, he wouldn't have come here today. The fact that he showed up means he still cares."Jonah's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a pain too deep to hide. He shook his head slowly. "Julien came back for Jasper. He did it because he's loyal… because he's a good friend. Not because of me.""He does care!" Alyssa insisted. "If he didn't, he would've faced you without fli
