Chapter 1235

Author: Ginger Sue
So what if Jasper had saved Alyssa multiple times? His so-called sacrifices couldn't make up for the pain he inflicted on her.

"No! No!" Zoe vehemently denied, beads of sweat forming on her forehead. "That man has nothing to do with the hotel scandal!"

Alyssa merely smiled, opting not to press further, as Zoe unwittingly betrayed the truth through her expression.

"Lyse, anything else you'd like to ask?" Landon turned to Alyssa with a gentle gaze.

She calmly shook her head.

"Good. Bring her away," Landon instructed with a wave of his hand.

Zoe's eyes widened in fear. "W-Where to?"

"The police station."

Looking crushed, Zoe stumbled backward indignantly. She yelled in a shrill voice, "Landon Harper, you're screwing with me, aren't you? Didn't you say you'd let this slip if I tell the truth?"

"Let this slip? Did I say that? Maybe you're being delusional." Landon turned away from her with a determination that felt like a farewell. "Zoe Harper, I said I'd teach you a lesson, and no

    "Jonah …" Jasper's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible."Jasper … Beckett …"Jonah widened his crimson eyes as a raging fury surged in his chest. Like an enraged beast, he rushed fiercely toward the frozen Jasper.Jasper saw the cold and fierce fist coming toward his cheek, but he remained motionless.He wanted to be hit. He had deserved it. Even if Jonah beat him to death, Jasper wouldn't complain."Jonah! Don't!"Just as Jonah's fist was about to reach Jasper, Julien appeared in time. He opened his arms and tightly embraced Jonah from behind."Let go." Jonah bit his lip hard, but it was his heart that was bleeding."No!" Julien's arms trembled around Jonah's waist. Panting heavily, he shouted, "What's the use of hitting him? Can you bring back what Lyse lost by hitting him?""But ... he deserves to die!"Jonah was so furious that his cheek muscles twitched. As he savagely struggled, the tears he barely held back started flowing again. "How can he stay alive? My

    Julien tried to put himself in Alyssa's shoes. Even if he loved Jasper deeply, he would probably suffer from constant pain and self-doubt in the future because he couldn't conceive. Such relentless self-torment would gradually erode the happiness of their love.They were truly an unfortunate pair—facing an unsolvable problem.However, Julien feared that things would worsen, so he could only persuade earnestly, "Jonah, no matter what, Mr. Beckett is Lyse's and your lifesaver."If he hadn't sacrificed himself to save you, how could you have come back alive? If it hadn't been for Jasper, I wouldn't have been able to see you again, and so many people would suffer because of you. Including Lyse!"Jonah's eyes remained bloodshot, but he slowly lowered his clenched fist."Jasper, you did save my life, so I'll spare you. But from now on, don't appear in front of me, and certainly not in Lyse's life."I can forgive all the harm you brought to her before, but I can't get over this one thin

    So what exactly happened two months after they had sex?"Mr. Beckett!" In the pouring rain, Xavier panted heavily while running over with a worried expression. "Mr. Beckett Senior couldn't reach you, so Ben contacted me. Mr. Beckett Senior knows what happened at the party. Please go to Crescent Bay to see him now."…Zoe's revelation about Alyssa's infertility at the Jesseltons' party had spread widely that night.Due to the high security level, no media was present at the party. Furthermore, with the pressure from the Taylors and the Harpers, no one dared leak any footage to reporters or share anything online.If the Taylors and the Harpers found out, it would be the end of them. After all, there weren't many present, so investigating wouldn't be that difficult.But there were no secrets in this world. The news still spread.Newton was at home when this news hit him. When he found out everything that had happened at the party, he almost had a heart attack from anger.Ben was s

    Javier, accustomed to a life of privilege since childhood, had never experienced such a beating or humiliation. And it happened in front of his son!He was totally embarrassed. The humiliation was unbearable."I'll smack you, heartless scum!" Newton was about to pick up a purple cup to continue his assault, but Ben timely stopped him. "Mr. Newton, calm down!"As Javier covered the injury on his forehead, his anger made him grit his teeth."You don't stand on your own grandson's and son's side but side with Winston's daughter? You're being a double-crosser! I think you're so old that you're confused."Winston and his daughter have been opposing us at every turn. This time at the party, they even snatched Jesselton Incorporated's tens-of-million-dollar racecourse hotel project from us! If it weren't for KS Group meddling, that project should have belonged to Beckett Group!"He angrily accused Newton of everything, then turned sharply to point accusingly at Jasper."And you! Not on

    Javier bellowed, "That miscarriage left Alyssa unable to conceive again! Do you really want to marry Jasper to such a woman? Jasper is now the only heir of our Beckett family."If you let him marry Alyssa, who will inherit the tens-of-billion-dollar family business? Betty? Lauren? Are they up to the task?"Jasper felt as if his heart were torn open."How ... How can that …" Newton was completely dumbfounded. He felt as though he was bleeding inside."It's her own problem. Why should we go down with her? Blame her bad luck. Blame her horrible fate!""It's not like that!" Suddenly, Ben, his forehead covered in cold sweat, rushed forward and shouted, "Things are not like what you're saying!"The three Becketts were all shocked.Ben had been with them for more than 30 years. He had a calm personality and was meticulous in his work. He had never been so impulsive."Mr. Gorham, do you ... do you know something?"Jasper keenly sensed Ben's hesitation to speak. With red eyes, he urgen

    Heartbroken, Jasper clutched his shirt tightly, feeling as if a knife were grinding his heart into a bloody pulp.Though Javier was unsympathetic, he lightly frowned upon hearing this.Ben explained, "Ms. Alyssa was afraid that you and Mr. Jasper would worry, so she begged me to keep this secret. Since you were severely injured at that time, I feared that you might be too traumatized."And if the news of Ms. Alyssa's inability to conceive got out, she wouldn't have a place in the Beckett family. She might be done for her whole life ...""Just because of this, you chose to listen to her? Are you out of your mind? She was so young back then! What could she possibly understand?" Newton lamented with a heavy heart."It's all my fault, Mr. Newton, Mr. Jasper. Please punish me in any way you see fit. I'll accept any punishment ..."Why was Alyssa so foolish?Before Ben could finish speaking, Jasper had already left them behind, running out of the villa."Mr. Jasper!"Ben wanted to c

    Lights were on at Heightsnew Villa, guaranteeing the Taylors a sleepless night.Winston treated his collections as treasures. But tonight, he was so furious that he had smashed several million-dollar antique vases.In an instant, countless porcelain pieces lay scattered on the floor.His three wives stood stiffly before Winston. Lyla anxiously held Mandy's hand, and Colene was also feeling uneasy."So … you all knew ..." Winston trembled, letting the boiling rage surge through his veins. "You all knew ... but hid it from me for three whole years?""Winston, we kept it from you because we didn't want you upset."Mandy tried to stay composed, speaking in a low voice. "You haven't been in good health these years. Such shocking news could be unbearable for you.""Haha ... Hahaha!" Winston's body swayed, and he pointed at them with a scornful laugh."Is your way of pleasing me to keep me in the dark for three whole years about Lyse and that scumbag's marriage?"Her body has been ru

    "Lyse will get better. She definitely will." Jonah endured the sorrow, but when he spoke those last few words, he choked up."What can I do ... What can I do ..."Silas seemed lost. In his 30 years of life, he had never felt so panicked before. He paced back and forth, speaking to himself."Alright, then I'll destroy Jasper now!"As Silas said that, he was about to run outside, but Jonah firmly blocked his way."That's enough! Enough!"A hoarse voice pierced everyone's hearts.Everyone looked up and saw Alyssa standing stiffly halfway up the spiral staircase. The soft glow that used to grace her face was gone, replaced by a livid and lifeless look.Seeing her like this, everyone felt a pang of distress."It's been three years. It's been three years since everything happened! I don't care anymore! Why do you have to bring it up over and over again? Why do you keep talking about it?"Alyssa's eyes turned a furious crimson. Almost hysterically, she shouted, "Must women give birt

    This time, the injection did not bring the excruciating pain that once made Amber wish for death. Her chapped lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face as she gazed deeply into Remy's eyes. He, too, looked at her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Between them, no words were needed."Damien… Thank you…" Though her voice was barely audible, the weight of her words sank deep into Remy's heart. For once, he did not object to being called Damien.The truth was, ever since Amber had been taken, an unbearable pressure had settled over him, making each breath feel like a punishment—every day since had been plagued by self-reproach and regret.If he hadn't stopped her that night and let her go sooner, could she have avoided Sheryl? Could she have been spared the torture and humiliation?"You should know that those who enter this place never leave. Most don't even make it out alive."Remy's gaze was unwavering. Taking advantage of the surveillance blind spot, he placed his

    "Mr. Lexington," the doctor greeted respectfully, lowering his head slightly. Everyone at the base knew who Sheryl and Remy were. They were the ones in charge, the decision-makers. So, everyone obeyed their orders without question. To the staff unaware of the facility's true purpose, Sheryl and Remy stood at the pinnacle of the hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, someone more powerful lurked in the shadows."How has she been these past few days?" Remy asked, his expression unreadable."She's had some adverse reactions, but there are no signs of organ failure yet. Honestly, I'm surprised. She looks frail, but her body is incredibly resilient—stronger than some men, even."The doctor scoffed. "But I'm not sure if she'll make it past her fourth injection today. Last month, four test subjects didn't survive beyond that point. Their bodies have already been sent to the incinerator." Remy's jaw tensed. His voice was husky as he said, "As I've instructed, this woman must be kept alive.

    Xavier seethed as he took in the insincere smile on Justin's face. Deep down, he was cursing him with every profanity imaginable. "Whatever makes you happy."Ignoring Justin's dark gaze, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead as he strode past him.Out of nowhere, Justin chuckled and asked, "Did you really think you had people on your side during the board meeting?"Jasper halted, his eyes narrowing. "Grandpa tried his best to shield you, but his health is failing by the day. How much longer do you think an old man can protect you?"Lowering his gaze, Justin idly adjusted the ruby cufflinks on his sleeves. His voice was casual yet cutting. "And Lyse—after how ruthlessly you discarded her, do you still believe she'll stand by you no matter what? That she'll fight alongside you like before?"The intense midday sun accentuated the sharp, aloof, and pallid features of Jasper's face as he stood, unyielding, in its glare. His pulse quickened. Finally, he answered, his voice a low rasp. "R

    As the board meeting concluded, the crowd gradually dispersed.News of Justin securing his position as president and Alyssa joining the board quickly spread through Beckett Group.After the meeting, Alyssa escorted Newton back to Crescent Bay while Jasper remained at the corporation to handle some matters.With Xavier accompanying him, Jasper strode toward the chairman's office, his expression cold and unreadable.Nearby, a few employees huddled together, whispering."Psst! Do you think Alyssa joining the board means she's teaming up with Jasper to take down our new president?""People have been saying they broke up since they haven't been seen together for a while," another speculated."But at the press conference, Alyssa openly condemned Mr. Justin. That looked like she was siding with Jasper. So, are they still together or not?""Come on, to people like them, personal feelings don't matter—only their own interests do. Even if they broke up, they can still work together if it

    When Jonah reached the bedside, he leaned in slowly, giving Julien an unobstructed view of his tanned skin, well-defined abs, and that devastatingly captivating face. Reclining against the headboard, Julien found himself lost in Jonah's eyes. His breath hitched, and his mind momentarily blanked as Jonah's mesmerizing gaze locked onto him. What could he do? His heart still betrayed him, a frantic drumbeat against his ribs. He was a fool—a pathetic fool. Jonah braced his arms on either side of Julien's head, his dark eyes overflowing with a raw, possessive affection. It was as if he sought to consume Julien—just as he had last night."Julien, does it still hurt—" "Fuck you!" Julien's bloodshot eyes blazed as he swung his hand, landing a sharp slap across Jonah's face. The illusion of his frailty shattered. A crimson handprint bloomed on Jonah's cheek in a split second, the flesh puffing up visibly. But the sting barely registered. Not when the ache in Jonah's chest was alr

    Justin frowned as a hint of surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He had assumed Newton's unannounced appearance at the board meeting—along with Alyssa's involvement—was a coordinated effort with Jasper to overthrow him as president. After mentally running through hundreds of countermeasures, the one possibility he hadn't considered was that everything would proceed smoothly in his favor. Javier was equally stunned, though this outcome aligned with his desires. Today, Justin wasn't merely his son but a constant shadow looming over him, a silent predator watching his every move and reminding him that his past actions weren't completely buried. Instead, this secret loomed like a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment, obliterating everything he'd built. And the person holding the detonator was Justin—his eldest son whom he had trusted above all others. With a dim gaze, Javier watched Justin rise to his feet amid the applause. Suddenly, Justin's voice seemed distant,

    Justin curled his lips into a smirk, scoffing in silence. Newton had gone to great lengths to bring Alyssa into Beckett Group. This was his way of decentralizing power and keeping it in check, and he wanted to prevent Justin from having complete control. Unlike others, Javier couldn't hold himself back. He blew his top instantly, his face turning red like a tomato. "Dad, have you lost your mind? Don't you know who she is? She is KS Group's president—our direct competitor!"KS Group is also bidding for Project A5. No matter how much you favor her, you should at least recognize the limits. If you promote her, it's a blatant conflict of interest—outright cronyism!" Newton sneered. "I might understand your concern if I were promoting someone other than Alyssa."His gaze hardened. "Cronyism? A conflict of interest? I wonder who you're really talking about."With those words, he cast a knowing, enigmatic glance at Justin's blank expression. Just then, a board member from Javier's

    Despite his age, Newton exuded the same energy and sharpness he had in his younger days, even when surrounded by the board members brimming with vigor. Despite his quiet presence in the wheelchair, an intimidating atmosphere clung to him. In an instant, Javier was transported back to the days when he worked under Newton's strict supervision."Good day, Mr. Javier and all fellow board members. I assume no one has any objections to my presence at this meeting?"Newton's gaze swept across the room, a perfunctory smile gracing his lips."Of course not. You are part of the corporation's board of directors!" the members responded immediately.Newton nodded. "Much has happened within the corporation lately. Our shares have been fluctuating amid the controversy. "As you all know, I had intended to retire after dedicating most of my life to this company. I wanted to step aside for the younger generation rather than hover over them like a specter, micromanaging everything. "However,

    Jasper's arrival plunged the conference room into an uneasy silence, and heavy tension settled over the space. Justin looked up, his expression a frozen mask. A palpable chill emanated from him. Javier's eyes widened in surprise. "Jasper? What are you doing here?" "Even though I'm no longer the president of Beckett Group, I remain a shareholder and board member. It's only natural for me to be here," Jasper replied smoothly as he strolled to his seat. As he passed behind Justin, he abruptly stopped. Without a moment's notice, he struck the back of Justin's chair. The sudden impact made Justin flinch. "Am I right, Justin?" Justin's expression darkened. Forcing a smile, he replied, "As a board member, you have the right to attend, even if you're no longer involved in operations. There's no issue.""If that's the case, why wasn't I informed about this meeting?" Jasper lowered himself into his seat, legs slightly parted, exuding an air of indifference. Yet, beneath the nonc
