"I'm surprised you've still got an appetite, Jasper. I wouldn't have any appetite at all if I were you." Silas chugged an entire cup of cold water. He slammed his cup on the table and said, "The hearing for Sophia's case officially begins next Friday." Everyone hadn't seen Sophia in a long time. Their faces turned gloomy at the mention of her name. "I know. I've been counting down the days." Jasper twitched his eyebrow slightly. His voice was tense and hoarse. He was doing his utmost best to suppress the sharp pain in his heart. "There hasn't been a day when I forgot how my mother died. I have not forgotten about seeking revenge on behalf of my mother and all the innocent lives that Sophia had claimed. Not for a single day." Alyssa's heart raced. The tears in her eyes glistened slightly. Under the table, she reached over slowly for Jasper's hand. She held his hand tightly. Jasper interlocked his fingers with hers immediately, as if he was grasping onto the only ray of light

"Jasper, it's alright if they don't understand you. I understand you." Alyssa exhaled. She placed her warm hand on the back of Jasper's hand. "If I were you, I would also do all I can to fulfill my mother's dying wish."At the same time, I understand how your mother felt. What she actually wanted was for you to have the ability to protect yourself. That was why she hoped that you could become more powerful. "There's nothing wrong with the path that you have chosen. As much as you may hate your father, Grandpa Newton has always cared for you. You're indebted to him for raising you. For Grandpa's sake, your perseverance and toil will not be completely meaningless." "Lyse… Thank you." Jasper choked on his tears. His voice trembled slightly as he called her name. "You don't have to thank me. I'm just someone who understands you," Alyssa replied as she smiled sweetly at him. "Jeffrey is now willing to testify against Sophia to say that she was involved in contract killings. With dr

To be frank, they had more than a couple of hurdles ahead of them. Even though Jeffrey had confessed to everything he knew, a crucial individual remained elusive—Inigo. This meant that their scheme to implicate Jameson was not going to succeed.After the guests left, Mrs. Rosie came back. She worked on tidying the kitchen and the house on Jasper and Alyssa's behalf. "Jasper, could you find a time to speak with Landon? He seems to get mad every time he meets Cyrus." Alyssa placed the plates into the sink so that she could wash them. She mumbled, "Why is he seeing him as an enemy just because he's single and handsome? All five of my brothers are still single. Yet, Cyrus is the only one he's keeping an eye on? "He's already acting like a possessive partner even before he gets married to Lauren. If so, wouldn't Lauren lose all her freedom if they were to get married in the future? "Is he going to keep her captive if she sneaks a peek at other men? Would he end up abusing her?"

"Lyse, I cannot leave you. Not even for a moment," Jasper said. Alyssa looked up at him slowly. Her eyes were filled with tears. Jasper wiped her tears dry. He felt pained to see her cry. "So… the first person you fell in love with was me?" Alyssa was determined to get an answer. Jasper probed carefully. "Do you want to know my honest answer?" "Of course I do." "No, it wasn't you." "Jasper! You're a jerk!" Alyssa's blood boiled. She punched him repeatedly on his chest. "How did I never realize that you were someone like this? You're such a jerk! Get out! Leave Mrs. Rosie with me. Take nothing else and leave!" Jasper let her hit him as much as she wanted. Despite his shaky voice, he responded seriously, saying, "You are the one I love the most, Lyse. You are the one that I want to marry. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."It is exactly because of this that I want to bare my heart to you. I want to be completely honest with you. I no longer wish to hide anyth

Alyssa's heart was still racing. She played it cool and asked, "After that… You've never tried to look for that woman?""I've never stopped searching for her. But I don't even know her name or what she looks like. There's no way for me to look for her." Jasper chuckled to himself. "I gave her a nickname—the White Dove. It represents hope. I was able to return from the battlefield alive all because of her. That was how I began to hope again." Alyssa's eyes welled up again. At this point in time, she was content regardless of whether he knew of her identity as the White Dove. …Jasper and Alyssa tidied up the kitchen and the living room. They took a bath together and changed into a clean set of matching pajamas. They were about to go upstairs to rest when Xavier returned. "Welcome back, Xavier. Have you had dinner? I'll warm something up for you if you haven't eaten," Alyssa asked in a concerned tone. The way she spoke to him wasn't like an employer speaking to an employee at

"Madam fell in love with you at first sight?" Xavier's eyes widened. He was burning with curiosity. Jasper had a dull look in his eyes. He poured some wine for himself to drink. This was meant to be fine wine that tasted rich and sweet. However, he could only taste a burning bitterness at the back of his throat as he drank it. "It's a pity that we can never go back in time. I cannot become the one who falls in love with her first. This will be something that I regret in my entire life." There was something else he regretted. His greatest regret of all was that he had caused Alyssa to lose the child that she longed for. She lost the child that was most precious to her. And in that, she had lost the chance to become a mother. Jasper let out a heavy sigh. It almost felt like it even hurt to breathe. "I will do my best to make her happy. I'm just not sure if I will be able to do it well." After all, happiness was subjective. It would only count if the other party felt satisfied.

"I understand… I just couldn't help it earlier today. I will definitely be more rational next time." Xavier stood up and smiled regretfully at Jasper. "You are only human. It's not wrong to have feelings. You didn't do anything wrong, so you don't have to be like this. Since you have found the right one for you, you should then aim for the right timing." Jasper got out of his seat and took a few steps toward the cellar door. All of a sudden, he stopped in his tracks and squinted. "You didn't give Maggie a tacky luxury item as a gift, did you? That's boring, thoughtless, and meaningless. If so, I'm not surprised to hear that she didn't accept your present." Xavier felt called out. He was so ashamed.…All the way back home, Lauren was a little sulky. She didn't say much either. By the time they crawled into bed, Landon couldn't restrain himself any longer. His eyes were filled with passion. He slipped his hand under her white-colored nightgown.Their fingers interlocked wit

How could an envious Landon be placated? Well, only through showing off his money. …David was officially being indicted by the prosecution of a few major crimes. The Schmidt family's stance toward this was clear as day. They had completely abandoned David, just like how they had abandoned Daisy. After all, the Schmidt Group would fall apart if they continued associating with trash like David. Despite being locked up at the detention center for a week, no one had come to rescue him. Instead, it was his arch-enemy who came—Jameson Schmidt. "Hey, you son of a bitch."David was in his gray-colored prisoner uniform. His hair looked unkempt, and his stubble was growing out. He sniffed and continued, "Are you here to mock me, too? If so, you can come over together with Josh next time. I'm not that free to meet with you assholes every other day!" "You say that you're not free. But, aren't you here to see me anyway?" The corners of Jameson's lips curved upward. He laughed coldl

"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
