Chapter 1126

Author: Ginger Sue
"Blaze ... Why did you force yourself? I told you to stop. Why didn't you listen?"

Jasper stood stiffly by Alyssa's side, watching the heartbreaking sight of her being deeply distressed for her horse. His heart ached with her as well.

She was inherently kind. What he loved most was her pure and kind soul.

The horse trainer quickly arrived and immediately conducted a detailed examination of Blaze and Alyssa.

Soon, they discovered the problem.

Blaze's left leg had a long and narrow knife wound!

The wound was located on the backside of its leg, so it was well-concealed. Neither Alyssa nor the horse trainer noticed it due to the rush to enter the arena.

Moreover, it was evident that this injury was intentional.

Initially, proper treatment and bandaging could have avoided significant harm. However, after galloping for miles hysterically, the wound had deteriorated dramatically.

The pus and its dark fur merged into one, and the injury had become so severe that it was deep enough to

    Alyssa raised her sweaty face, beaming at Jasper. Her eyes revealed a hint of admiration. But she wouldn't tell him that. She feared he might become too proud."Lyse! How are you?"At this moment, Jameson hurried over, followed by Carl and several members of Solana City's top surgical medical team, all wearing white coats. Jameson had dispatched them at the fastest speed."Mr. Atkins, Mr. Benton, please take Blaze in and have the tools ready. I want to perform the surgery myself."Alyssa stood up with Jasper's support, calmly stating, "Also, I need a steel plate to fix my waist. Nothing else for now.""Okay, I'll help you before the surgery." Jasper's voice was hoarse, and his heart ached for her once again.The two of them walked past Jameson. None of them spoke to him or even glanced at him. They treated him as if he were invisible.This kind of disregard was more unbearable for Jameson than having his throat slashed with a knife."Lyse ... Lyse!"No matter how Jameson calle

    Jonah took care of the tasks Alyssa assigned and returned with a stern face.Before Winston and Lyla could speak, Zeke rushed up, asking with concern, "Mr. Jonah, how is Ms. Alyssa? Is she seriously injured?""Thanks for your concern, Mr. Zeke. My sister is fine for now. Apart from a few superficial injuries, the injury to her waist is a bit severe, but Mr. Beckett has already treated her. Right now, he's accompanying her to rest in the infirmary," Jonah replied with a smile, but his expression didn't appear relaxed.When Zeke heard that Jasper was with Alyssa, his expression darkened."Phew ... Thank God, and may God bless her." Ezzo showed his kindness, making the sign of the cross over his chest.Meanwhile, Winston's pale complexion eased a bit. With Lyla's support, he slowly sat down. However, he remained anxious and abruptly stood up again, preparing to go see his daughter.Suddenly, Preston frowned and spoke, "Oh, how's the horse?"Silence fell among the group."Mr. Prest

    Preston felt extremely embarrassed since everyone was looking. His face fell."Lyse! You're okay! Thank goodness!" Lyla, with tears in her eyes, was overjoyed.Meanwhile, Winston was unconcerned about business matters anymore. He heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that Alyssa was unharmed. The typically composed tycoon, who remained unfazed even in the face of major challenges, had his suit drenched in cold sweat at this moment.He looked toward Jasper, who had steadfastly stood by his daughter's side. Jasper's gentle eyes were filled with nothing but concern for her.When the accident happened, Jasper rushed to Alyssa without hesitation. That genuine care from the depths of his heart was definitely not an act.As the president of Beckett Group, Jasper's every move and action was scrutinized. It might lead to criticism and even ruin his reputation, but he didn't care. It was as if he could give up his crown, but not Alyssa.In a moment of reverie, Winston thought of Alyssa's bio

    The crowd was in shock. They looked at Alyssa in disbelief."Mr. Beckett, are you saying ... Lyse fixed the horse's leg? Can a horse's leg really be reattached?" Victor widened his eyes in amazement."Of course, Mr. Victor. Don't forget, Lyse has another identity." Landon hinted with a smile."Our Lyse is none other than the renowned and worshipped Dr. White! You should know this name better than anyone else."Alyssa was speechless, feeling that Landon was exaggerating."Ah ... Right!"Victor recalled that when David had a car accident, it was Alyssa who performed the surgery on him. Victor excitedly slapped his forehead."Yes, Lyse is Dr. White! She's the benefactor of our family! How could I forget this? Dr. White can mend any bone. Even if it's shattered into pieces, it's as simple as building blocks for her."Hearing that, Alyssa felt a headache coming on. Their description of her was becoming more and more absurd.This was also why she liked using pseudonyms. She disliked

    Just then, Jameson walked over slowly. The moment he saw how close Jasper and Alyssa were, pain shot through his heart like bullets—so painful it was soul-crushing.Jameson gripped tightly onto the railing, his other hand clutching his chest right above his heart. It hurt so much.How could it hurt so badly?"What's wrong, Mr. Schmidt? Are you feeling unwell?" Carl was shocked by this. When he went to help support Jameson, the latter quickly shoved away."Scram! Don't touch me!" Jameson snarled."Y-Yes, sir." Carl ducked to the side. He glared at Jasper and Alyssa from a distance.Carl would never complain about how Jameson treated him. He'd only blame Jasper Beckett for making Jameson's life a despairing one, for destroying Jameson's hard-to-come-by happiness."The injury on Blaze's left leg was man-made. It's a narrow and peculiar knife wound," Alyssa said.She exhaled deeply as anger glinted in her eyes. "KS Group's horses are worth millions and are routinely checked eve

    "I intended to do so as well," Jonah replied, nodding solemnly.Winston looked at his old friend. "Victor, it would help to have Josh aid in the investigation, given he's the CEO. You wouldn't mind if he aids Jonah, would you?""What's with the politeness? How could I possibly ignore something so serious that's affected Lyse? Help Uncle Winston as much as you can, Josh. You must investigate this thoroughly so Lyse is avenged!" Victor exclaimed.He was secretly grateful for Winston's decision. The police should've been called on to look into such a grave matter, but Winston chose to handle this privately on account of their decades-long friendship.If the police were involved, then so would the media. Since this incident occurred at Schmidt's Racecourses and Alyssa was injured from it, the Schmidt family's reputation would surely be affected if known to the public."Alright, I'll do my best to help Mr. Taylor," Josh said.However, Jasper's voice rang out the moment he finished spe

    Meanwhile, Sophia had rushed over to one of the lounges on the racing grounds to meet Tristan after the race."Tristan … I'm coming, Tristan!" Sophia sometimes felt like she'd become much more youthful after meeting Tristan. Not only that, but she'd become more fearless, too.While living with the Beckett family, Sophia had hidden her true self and constructed a fake persona for the past 20 years or so. She had long been fed up and tired of having to appeal to Javier every single day. Sophia had had enough of trying to appease a man she despised with every fiber of her being.Tristan's presence was like the life-giving rain that a parched, cracked desert yearned for, completely rejuvenating Sophia. She was deeply entranced, unable to break free from him.With her heart pounding in excitement, Sophia shakily knocked on the lounge door. But it didn't open even when she knocked again and again.In the end, Sophia barged in and locked the door behind her.Unexpectedly, she was th

    Sophia took a deep breath and went to open the door, acting calm. "What is it?""What are you doing here, Madam Sophia? Mr. Javier is searching for you all over the place." As Rory spoke, his eyes wouldn't stop peeking behind Sophia into the lounge."I was tired, so I found a place to rest. What are you looking for? You think I'm hiding someone?" Sophia leaned back against the door, arms crossed in front of her chest. She sneered. "Only an ugly and perverted mind would view the world as such. Go inside, then. Try to find a man hiding in here, or so help me!""That's not what I meant, ma'am."Rory didn't pursue the matter. He smiled politely and gestured for Sophia to exit the room. "Ladies first, Madam Sophia. Mr. Javier requests your immediate presence in the VIP area. Everyone is present save for you, Madam Sophia and Mr. Javier worries about speculation."…A peculiar atmosphere had settled in the VIP area.Zoe hid behind Cornelius, now pale and rigid as ice.

    "Amber will be fine," Jasper said confidently. "Based on Justin's way of doing things, he won't harm her for now. She's still useful t o him. He'll exploit her to control you and Alyssa, and to keep me from taking him down."Gripping Jasper's arm, Axel pleaded, "Jasper, I have to save my wife… What should I do?" His eyes were red, brimming with unshed tears.Steadying his breath, Jasper replied, "Even if it comes to killing Justin, it shouldn't be your hands that get dirty. I'll do it.""Are you kidding me? If we're taking that bastard down, we do it together!" Axel's expression was fierce and unyielding. "We went through the same military academy. We have to fight side by side!""Justin is my older brother. It's my family's matter to handle. And don't think I'm doing this for your sake—I have my own reasons."After a moment of silence, Jasper's voice softened. "I came to see you today for another reason. When you get home, don't blame Lyse. She's been torturing herself with g

    When Axel heard the news, he immediately returned to the city where his organization was based. Without even reporting back to work, he booked the earliest red-eye flight to Cyrris. His eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep, and when he emerged from the arrival gates, an ominous air surrounded him. A black luxury car awaited him at the exit.Standing in front of the car were Jasper and Xavier, who had been waiting anxiously for his arrival.Axel's gaze locked onto Jasper's fiery eyes. His presence radiated fury, unrestraint, and a barely contained viciousness. A strong gust of wind swept through the terminal. Snow danced in the air, tangling both Jasper's and Axel's hair into disarray."Let's talk in the car, Axel," Jasper said in a low, measured voice.Red-eyed, Axel insisted, "I need to find my wife right now." "That's exactly why I'm here. Get in the car, and we'll talk." Jasper turned on his heel. His tone grew colder. "But let's be honest—you won't find her no matter ho

    Jasper wanted to console Alyssa but found himself at a loss for words. So, he remained silent. "Disappointed, aren't you?" Alyssa sniffled as she smiled bitterly."Not at all." Perhaps he had been expecting too much. As a woman, she was intelligent, capable, and a strategist for victory. Beyond that, she boldly stepped forward to fight against the dark forces. She was strong and perfect as she was—why should he expect her to be anything more?Yet, seeing Alyssa's vulnerable side unsettled him. Something tugged at his heartstrings, a deep ache he couldn't ignore."I found it! I found Ms. Altman's cell phone!" With more manpower and better visibility as the sun rose, it didn't take long to locate Amber's bloodied phone. "Ambs…"Alyssa's face drained of color as terror gripped her at the sight of the bloodstained device. Jasper, on the other hand, remained composed. He tried powering on the phone, and to their surprise, it turned on. "What's the password?" Jasper asked g

    "Five times more potent than the previous version? Are you sure it's safe for Remy to consume this?" Sheryl picked up the pill, unease flickering across her face. As much as she despised Remy, she couldn't deny his prowess as a fighter and his value as Justin's right-hand man. Having him around would certainly ease Justin's workload, prompting her to double-check."It won't kill him, but it won't be pleasant either. Don't worry—it's temporary," Justin replied, a sinister smile curling his lips. He continued nonchalantly, "When he takes the pill, his adrenaline will spike, flooding him with energy while his muscles tense. He'll feel both pain and euphoria. Then, it will fade, leaving him dependent on the drug moving forward." The implication was clear to Sheryl. Justin intended to control Remy through addiction. "Remy wasn't born for the shadows," Justin continued, his gaze darkened. "He's just a victim of post-traumatic amnesia, his nervous system subdued with sedatives and anes

    "Got it, Mr. Harper!" Harper Group's subordinates acknowledged before swiftly dispersing. "I'm going to search for Amber too," Alyssa said, turning to leave.Jasper caught her arm. "It's freezing. Go wait in the car." Landon chimed in, "Lyse, listen to Jasper. Just wait in the car. We'll search for Amber.""No—I have to come too!" Alyssa sniffled. The sharp wind stung her face, leaving her nose raw and crimson, her eyes watering until they puffed into tender, swollen crescents. "Amber's in trouble because of me. I was careless—it's all my fault!""Lyse…" Landon's heart sank at her remorseful expression.Jasper's gaze softened as he studied Alyssa's pale face. "Her disappearance isn't your fault."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes as she shook her head. "Amber means everything to Axel. If anything happens to her, I won't be able to face him. I don't deserve to be his sister. Please, let me come with you."Jasper and Landon failed to dissuade her. Reluctantly, they agreed. Alyssa

    After studying Sheryl for a moment, Remy turned and left."M-Ms. Gillis, are you okay?" One of Sheryl's subordinates came forward to help her up."Useless bastard! Why didn't you step in when he hit me earlier?" Sheryl's voice trembled with fury as her gaze fell on the crimson stains marring the pristine snow.Stammering, the subordinate replied, "R-Remy acted too quickly. Everyone in the organization knows how good of a fighter he is. None of us stood a chance against him!""S-Something wasn't right about him tonight." Sheryl watched Remy's retreating figure disappear into the distance, her voice dropping to a menacing murmur. "I need to report this to Mr. Justin in person immediately."Inside his car, Remy gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands but made no move to drive.Closing his eyes, he felt a suffocating sensation rise in his throat, as though he were drowning in an endless, hopeless sea. He was just a speck, sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss.A shar

    With a piercing gaze, Sheryl glared at Remy, who stood in front of her car with an air of frigidity around him. The temptation to ram her car into the crestfallen man was almost irresistible, but she didn't dare. Remy was Justin's right-hand man, and even her audacity had limits. Instead, Sheryl pulled her white coat snugly around her, stepped out of the car with feigned composure, and strode toward him. Hostility crackled between them as their eyes locked.Sheryl broke the silence. "Remy, is there nothing you'd like to update me about?" she asked with a sinister look in her eyes. Stiffly, Remy asked, "Where did you take that woman?" "How shameless of you to question me. Mr. Justin was wise to send me as backup. Otherwise, Amber would have escaped without a trace!"Gritting her teeth, Sheryl took a step closer to Remy. "Is this how you handle tasks entrusted by Mr. Justin? The unstoppable Remy, brought to his knees by a wild brat? Or did you let her go intentionally? Are yo

    "Jameson and Carl have been eliminated. Who else could be targeting Amber?"A sharp glint flashed in Jasper's eyes as a thought struck him. "Could it be Justin or Sheryl?" he asked, his voice low and tense.He recalled seeing Justin in the living room earlier that evening, wide awake instead of resting. Was Justin waiting for something? Or perhaps, provoking him in subtle defiance?"They are the only ones I can think of with a grudge against Amber." Alyssa's anxiousness made her voice tremble. "Having worked for Jameson for years, Amber must have visited Mosgravia multiple times to meet with Sir—who is, in fact, Justin. "Justin wouldn't have met anyone else besides Jameson. But how could he leave no trace after all those interactions? Amber must have figured out his true identity. And Justin—he must have realized who she is, even with her changed appearance."Jasper's expression darkened. "So he decided to eliminate her as a precaution."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes, threaten

    Searching for Amber without direction would be pointless. Jasper made a swift decision to bring Alyssa back to the manor, shielding her from the relentless chill of the wind. Once inside, he immediately began organizing the search. He deployed his men and contacted Landon, requesting additional support.The two of them sat together on the couch.This time, there was no space between them. It was as though an invisible force drew them closer, their proximity feeling natural yet electric. Neither could say who had moved first.Alyssa, however, was in no mood to dwell on their closeness. Wrapped in her down jacket, she curled up on the couch, her arms hugging herself tightly. A quiet frostiness emanated from her as she sat in silence, listening to Jasper's calm and methodical calls to mobilize his team.In the past, his composed presence would have been enough to ease her mind. But now, her thoughts were a tangled mess, each one like a razor claw tearing at her heart. The pain was u
