Alyssa coldly observed Jameson's fake act as she clutched her fists.

Winston cast an affectionate gaze at Jameson and said warmly, "Attaboy. I know your feelings. Don't worry. You'll have many more opportunities to spend time with Lyse."

The onlookers gasped at Winston's response as the cameras captured the interaction. As a legendary businessman who was at the top of his field, Winston had never shown such affinity with men younger than him. He clearly approved of Jameson as his future son-in-law candidate.

Someone mumbled softly, "Why do I have a feeling that … Mr. Taylor intended to matchmake Mr. Jameson and Ms. Alyssa?"

"It appears like that to me as well. He's always cold to Mr. Beckett but friendly with Mr. Jameson. It's a clear sign, isn't it?

"Besides, everyone in business knows that Victor Schmidt and Winston Taylor are good friends. Mr. Taylor spoilt his stubborn daughter. He wouldn't have approved of her marriage to Mr. Beckett otherwise. Instead, he would have married

    "But—" Xavier sounded hesitant.Heart sinking, Jasper demanded, "What is it?""Jameson Schmidt was the one who helped Madam." Xavier broke into a cold sweat when he brought up Jameson's name.Rage filled Jasper's eyes. His jawline tightened as he clenched his teeth. "Not only that, photos of Mr. Taylor and Jameson are circulating online. There are unverified rumors of an arranged marriage between the Taylor and Schmidt families. Madam might end up marrying Jameson Schmidt!" Even Xavier quivered as he spoke.Jasper was clearly more crushed and heartbroken than Xavier upon hearing the news.Nervous, he was about to look for Alyssa when he witnessed the Jesseltons of Mosgravia's Jesselton Incorporated approaching him under heavy security protection."Mr. Beckett, it's the Jesseltons!" Xavier gaped at the entourage. "Damn, are the father and son both here? It could've been a sudden schedule change, as we weren't notified at all."While they were speaking, Ezzo and Zeke Jesselton c

    Meanwhile, Zoe kept her head low in anger. She dared not utter a word after what had happened.Betty learned about the incident just now and secretly laughed and relished in Zoe's rare display of dejection.Preston laughed merrily and replied, "Dad, don't mention it. Of course, I'd help my niece. I can't be helping the outsiders, can I?"His remark reminded Cornelius of Landon's recent behavior. Right then, Landon showed up and announced, "Grandpa, Mom, we're here."Everyone turned to look at him. He strode over, fingers interlacing with Lauren, looking as sweet as newlyweds.Landon cast a loving gaze at the shy Lauren, to the envy of the onlookers. Nevertheless, there was tension in the air. Cornelius and Penelope treated the couple with an icy demeanor."Oh gosh, is Mr. Landon with Ms. Lauren now?" Daisy, who was oblivious to the complex dynamics, broke the ice. "Wow, you make a lovely couple! Congratulations in advance to both of you, as well as your parents!"Javier and So

    Zoe, feeling emboldened, took the chance to sneer at her brother, "I'd advise you to think twice lest you regret your choice and waste Lauren's time. I know her very well. We went to the same middle school. She's different from those sluts you dated before."Upon hearing that, Javier's expression fell. At this point, he had lost any hope of marrying Lauren to Landon."Grandpa, Mom, Mr. Javier, I know what you're worried about. I was an unreliable brat in the past." Landon took a deep breath and stared longingly at Lauren as his voice trembled emotionally. "But I love Lauren deeply. I'd do anything for her. I'd give her everything."Giving Lauren everything? What joke was that? Cornelius gritted his teeth and tapped his walking stick on the ground but refrained from further expressing his rage in the presence of the Becketts and the other guests.Landon swallowed hard and declared, "I won't marry anyone else except Lauren."Turning to Penelope, he explained, "Mom, you might think I

    The Jesseltons' arrival introduced a subtle change to the social dynamics. Javier and the Harpers reacted to the new guests with enthusiasm, though they did not grovel at Ezzo Jesselton as they were on par in social standing. Still, they accorded the Jesseltons much more interest and respect.Jasper was the only one who did not respond to the Jesseltons. Sitting like a statue beside Javier, he cast a passionate look at his lover. Alyssa, engaged in a conversation with Winston, wore a serious expression, oblivious to Jasper's longing gaze.Suddenly, Jasper felt a chill when Jameson, holding a champagne flute, leaned forward to obstruct his view of Alyssa.Next, Jameson slowly turned around to face Jasper with a smirk and raised the champagne flute at him.Jasper froze from head to toe, tightening his grip on his wine glass in rage. Jameson arched a brow and leisurely took a sip of the wine, a clear act of provocation.Jasper held his breath and unknowingly broke the glass in his ha

    Alyssa leaned forward, jolted from the emotional turmoil.Suddenly, Winston growled sternly, "Alyssa Taylor, what do you plan to do?" She sensed pressure and turned to look at her father.Winston accused, "Are you going to confront Zoe Harper over a man? I hope you're not as shameless as that woman. Do not make me lose my respect for you, and don't bring shame to our family!"Alyssa pressed her lips tightly together. Jameson, happy at Winston's intervention, grinned as he downed the champagne in his flute.Just when Zoe was about to touch Jasper, he stood up without warning, causing her to lose her balance and fall on her butt. The Harpers' bodyguards went up to help Zoe. However, it only added further humiliation as she attracted unwanted attention from the other guests.Jasper glared daggers at Zoe. "Ms. Zoe, please behave." His warning clapped like a frightening thunder.Alyssa quietly smiled when Jasper distanced himself from Zoe, her heart dripping with honey. No other man

    Alyssa stood out as the most attractive and dazzling female among the young ladies from the four distinguished families and possibly even across the nation.From the moment Zeke stepped into the venue, his gaze remained fixated on Alyssa, the charming Cyrrisian lady."You bitch! Who do you think you are—proposing a toast to the Jesseltons? Do they even know you?"Much to Betty's chagrin, Ezzo nodded approvingly and raised his glass toward Alyssa. He chirped, "Alexa, today I learned that you are the daughter of the KS Group president. How many more surprises do you have in store for me? This is not our first meeting anyway. Do skip the formalities."Everyone was taken aback by Alyssa's friendship with the Mosgravian tycoon Ezzo Jesselton, including Javier, who grew uneasy. When Alyssa married Jasper, she concealed her identity, including her multiple careers, never once leveraging her influence for Jasper or the Beckett family.Now that she was divorced, she seemed to enjoy going a

    Jasper's public act of chivalry proved to the guests that Alyssa was the only love of his life. Zoe Harper meant nothing to him at all.Jameson clenched his fists, his body tensing. Why was he always a step slower than Jasper Beckett? Why did that scoundrel always manage to be in the place beside Alyssa?Zeke looked visibly upset, but he maintained a smile. "It's the Cyrrisian culture to protect the ladies. Mr. Beckett, you're indeed a gentleman for taking care of Ms. Alyssa. Compared to you, I appear a little too rash. I was wrong to disregard Ms. Alyssa's feelings. For that, I'll drink as a penalty."After that, Zeke downed a glass of champagne. Jasper studied him with a knowing gaze as he confidently downed his drink as well. The timely applause from the audience alleviated the tension, but Javier wore a discontented expression.Betty couldn't help but scoff. "Dad, what's Jasper thinking? Zeke Jesselton clearly has an interest in Alyssa, so why is he coming between them? He's on

    Jasper might be tacit and reserved, but he always managed to surprise at crucial moments.Alyssa squinted at him, and when no one was watching, she softly elbowed him. Her scent that wafted in his direction made him blush as he pressed his lips. She covered her laugh when she saw his reddened cheeks. Jasper was like a naïve schoolboy.His shyness was a stark contrast to his behavior in bed at night, where he devoured her like a predator."Sophie, just finish a drink. A few sips should be enough," Javier told Sophia.With a glint in his eyes, he lowered his voice and warned, "Don't be a party pooper."Sophia felt her chest tighten. She stiffly raised her glass and downed the contents. Even Betty silently worried for her mom, who acted as though she was drinking poison.Jameson keenly observed the interaction between Alyssa and Jasper, feeling as though they were onto something. However, he had no idea what was going on.Zeke took his seat beside Ezzo, clenching his jaw and lookin

    Even without Jasper's presence, he was confident that the Taylors and the rescue team would have been able to save Alyssa. It became clear what the person manipulating Remy had been aiming for.But why had Remy let Jasper go at that crucial moment? Had he experienced a sudden change of heart? Or was he, in fact, Alyssa's brother, Damien?Jasper's mind filled with all kinds of thoughts. Before he could dwell too deeply, there was a knock at the door. Xavier hurried over to open it, freezing in shock when he saw who stood outside. "Mr. Winston?"Winston was leaning on Silas for support, his expression grim. "Mr. Beckett is in there, isn't he? May I have a word with him?" Xavier quickly stepped aside, gesturing for Winston and Silas to enter.When he saw the elder he respected standing at the door, Jasper struggled to rise from the bed despite his exhaustion. "Mr. Winston…" "You are wounded. Stay put!" Winston insisted, swiftly moving forward to gently press Jasper back down

    "Next time? There won't be a next time."Tears flowed down Alyssa's face, soaking Jasper's shirt with each drop. Her voice was quiet but steady, carrying the weight of her heartache. "Jasper… I'm drained. Sometimes, I think it might be better if you just forgot about me. It would be easier than this. Every time I let myself hope, all I get in return is disappointment."Jasper's chest tightened as her calm words pierced through him. Waves of emotion surged inside him, and a lump rose painfully in his throat.…It was fortunate that Jasper had found Alyssa in time to administer first aid. After rushing her to the ER, she slipped into unconsciousness. That being said, she was extremely lucky to have escaped death. Nevertheless, she needed to remain in the ICU for further observation. Aside from treating her frostbite, the doctors needed to assess whether her internal organs or brain had been affected.With the severity of Alyssa's condition, Sean couldn't keep the truth from Winsto

    "Jas…"Alyssa looked at Jasper with an unfocused gaze. Her breaths were shallow, and she was slipping in and out of consciousness. Mentally, she was confused. "Yes, it's me—Jasper!"Jasper's heart clenched as he saw the color drain from her face. Her body trembled uncontrollably, fragile as a leaf caught in the wind. She resembled the kitten he had saved as a child—frozen and alone in the alley that bitter winter night. A deep sorrow flooded his chest."Jas… per…" Alyssa murmured his name, her voice strained, her tongue numb from the cold.A faint, mocking smile tugged at the corners of her lips, and tears streamed down her cheeks. "It seems… like I am about… to freeze to death… How could he be here… He will not come back… He doesn't want me anymore…" Alyssa's vision blurred as her eyelids grew heavy. She began to lean, her body sagging to one side."Alyssa! Stay awake!" Jasper's heart was pierced, the pain unbearable as he saw the denial in her eyes. He forced himself to pu

    Elias frowned deeply; his worry etched onto his face. "We've been shouting Ms. Alyssa's name the whole way. With so many of us calling out, she should've heard us by now if she were nearby!"In a deep voice, Jasper said, "The wind is too strong, and then there's the heavy snowfall. Our voices are being drowned out. Lyse might not hear us at all."Lyse. Her nickname slipped from his lips before he even realized it."I'm just afraid she's injured—or worse, fainted. If she blacks out in this cold…" Elias trailed off, his voice heavy with dread. "On a day like this, she won't survive long. She'll freeze to death."The group exchanged uneasy glances, the reality of his words tightening their chests.It wasn't that Elias was being a doomsayer. Rather, this was the cruel reality that might actually happen. Crater Mountain claimed lives every year. Danger lurked unpredictably in the woods on the mountain—anything could unfold."Let's split up," Jasper commanded, his eyes fixed on t

    The snow was falling heavily, and the chilling winds howled through the night.Remy had no car, so he trudged through the snow alone, each step more exhausting than the last.His thoughts were consumed with Alyssa—was she still alive? In danger? And Jasper's unrelenting resolve to reach her, even after being shot and drenched in blood.Remy pressed his calloused, trembling hand to his chest. His heart hammered in his ribcage erratically.A sharp, searing pain shot through his temples, blurring his vision. He collapsed to his knees in the snow, his body racked with agony. The pain surged deep within him, and his eyes felt like they were going to burst from their sockets. It was unbearable.His breath came in ragged gasps. His hands scrambled for the necklace hanging from his neck—inside it was a hidden medicine box.Justin had told him that the medication in there could calm him down and relieve him of any pain. It would be able to save his life. But in his desperate haste, the

    As subtle as Remy's expressions were, Jasper still noticed them. A slight twinkle flashed across his eyes. He did not have the time to continue entertaining Remy. He clenched his teeth, turned around, and started running toward Crater Mountain. Nevertheless, he had barely taken a few steps when gunshots were fired at his feet. Even so, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead and did not stop. Just then, another gunshot rang out. It wasn't until a bullet hit him in his right shoulder that the pain caused him to stumble. He almost fell to the ground but forced himself to stay on his feet. It was fortunate that he was shot in his right shoulder this time. After all, his left shoulder could not be injured any further. Otherwise, his left shoulder would be left in complete disability."If you take another step, the next shot will be in your left leg," Remy warned mockingly. Yet, his gaze was firm and fiery. "Jasper, I don't suppose you want to end up like your older brother, living in

    A chill went down Jasper's spine. At that moment, staring down the barrel of the gun, one thought consumed him. It was the only thought that mattered—he had to stay alive to meet Alyssa!Jasper's mind raced. His gun was hidden under the driver's seat of his usual car, but today, he had taken a different sports car—one that wasn't equipped with a weapon. Panic gripped him for a split second before his instincts kicked in.The soldier within him stirred. Without warning, he jerked the steering wheel, ramming his car into Remy's.One of Remy's headlights was taken out and left rolling across the snow. All of a sudden, this prideful man was overwhelmed with anger. His eyes reddened with a strong sense of competitiveness, compelling him to pull the trigger. A shot rang out. The bullet sliced through the cold air, shattering Jasper's car window.From the very beginning, Remy hadn't intended to take Jasper's life. All Justin told him to do was to stop Jasper from meeting with Alys

    "Jasper, you are such a jerk. If anything bad happens to Ms. Alyssa, you will surely regret it. You will live in regret your entire life!" Sean yelled. …The temperature tonight was -4 degrees Fahrenheit. The snowstorm in the woods on the mountain was getting stronger and stronger. The winds were freezing and bone-piercing as they blew against Alyssa's face. Trees swayed dramatically in the screeching winds, creating an inexplicable creepy atmosphere that added a feeling of desolation to Alyssa's sorrowful and depressive mood. She braved the bone-piercing winds and faced the heavy snowfall. With the help of her trekking pole, she plodded forward one step at a time. She did not have a destination in mind. She did not know where she was heading. Her heart had shattered, and she was beside herself. The decreasing temperatures discouraged her and made her lose all her motivation. For someone who had lost their willpower, being in the woods under extreme weather conditions wa

    "Mr. Jasper, why do you say so?" Sheryl lifted her head and looked into Jasper's reddened eyes. She furrowed her brows and laughed out loud. "White Dove is from Solana City. This is also something that I wasn't able to predict. If I had known, I wouldn't have gotten you to make a trip here in vain, would I?" Sheryl was no longer that conniving bitch who used to act coy. Now, she had a powerful person backing her up. Jasper's violent rage did not scare her at all. "Why the hell didn't you say anything earlier?" Xavier marched forward furiously. He was even more inclined to serve her a slap. "Did you know that Mr. Beckett had an important date with Madam today? He only rushed her because of your stupid lead! Right now, you're telling us that White Dove isn't in Skydon but Solana City? What the heck are you scheming? Were you trying to ruin Mr. Beckett and Madam's date intentionally?" "Madam? Haven't Mr. Jasper and Ms. Alyssa broken up? Is it right for you to be referring to her
