Jasper had heard Tessa's testimony many times in private. Even so, the pain in his heart was just as piercing as when he heard it for the first time. "Fentanyl is a type of analgesic. Its usage is banned in the country. Even a slight overdose could cause death." Tears of hatred welled up in Alyssa's eyes, which had already turned red. She had a mother, too. She could completely empathize with Jasper's pain. Everyone present in court was staggered. The attendees in the public gallery began to chatter among themselves. Simultaneously, the live broadcast was being streamed on the court's official website. The livestream page was also filled with a stream of comments. From the commencement of the hearing until now, the court's official website witnessed an unprecedented surge in viewership, reshares, and comments."Sophia was also involved in a homicide? Is she the wife of a plutocrat, or is she the devil?""So, Jasper isn't an illegitimate child! Sophia married into the Becket

Tessa conveyed everything that she knew. She had just let out her anguish and frustration, which she had suppressed for 20 years. After that, she slumped back into the chair. She was drenched in sweat. At this moment, she felt guilty. She regretted it from the bottom of her heart. She hated herself for being 20 years late in revealing the truth.If only she hadn't been so greedy at the time. If only she could've been brave enough to withstand Sophia's threats and testify that she had murdered Anne. If so, Anne could've rested in peace. As for herself, she wouldn't have had to be away from home and suffer for 20 years. She was really foolish back then. Sophia was just Javier's mistress at that time. Why did she have to fear such a lowly woman? If Javier and Anne reconciled, there was no way that Sophia would've become Javier's wife. She wouldn't even have remained in the Beckett family. Sophia might have been carrying Javier's child, but she would've ended up having to leave.

"It's fine if you say that. The deceased fell to her death. Even though my client was at the scene, there is no one who can prove that my client has anything to do with the victim's death." Upon saying that, Simon looked at Steven with a serious look. "Judge Lynch, the witness whom the plaintiff's attorney summoned, is in no way a direct witness in this case. "Moreover, the witness vanished for 20 years before coming out to give her statement. It has been 20 years. Wouldn't her memory already be fuzzy? Might she have colluded with someone else in secret? Her statement is unreliable!" There was pin-drop silence in the room. Furious, everyone looked toward Simon's despicable-looking side profile.Sophia hung her head low. She was trying her best to control her facial expressions, so much so that the muscles on her face were beginning to spasm. She was terrified. She was worried that she'd suddenly lose control and burst out laughing.She thought to herself, "Anne, you bitch! Yo

Silas spoke with confidence. He watched Sophia with a piercingly sharp gaze. He looked as if he was able to see through her. His overbearance was not to be belittled. Sophia's heart was pounding. She felt a lump stuck in her throat. Even Simon felt his chest tighten. He had heard that Silas was the top prosecutor in Solana City. He was a stubborn man and extremely difficult to handle. The job of a prosecutor was very sensitive. They were people in a position of power. The powerful and wealthy often want a prosecutor or two on their side. This was so they could use the prosecutors at a crucial moment. Many prosecutors looked righteous. However, they would work for the tycoons in secret, with both parties reaping mutual benefits. As for Silas, he wasn't just born with an overwhelming sense of justice. He was even the second generation of a plutocrat.What would happen if anyone tried to bribe him? Hah, his pockets were so deep that they'd be suffocated! Silas presented new

"I… I didn't. I didn't poison her!" Sophia was essentially being put on the spot. Silas disregarded her denial. He continued in a deep, cold voice, "At that time, you panicked. You fled from the crime scene. But you forgot to take this medicine bottle with you. "That year, the victim's death was determined to be a suicide. This made you let your guard down. You never went back to the scene to double-check. "The Beckett family figured that it was bad luck that someone had died in that room. So, they ended up locking the room up. Unexpectedly, this unintentional decision has helped the police preserve the crime scene to this day. "This medicine bottle used to contain the victim's depression medication. It was placed by her bedside. Its contents were swapped out. But there was some drug residue in the bottle. "We lifted samples for testing and found that it wasn't fentanyl. It was cyanide." Cyanide? That was the most poisonous of all poisons! Coming into contact with it woul

It was because Sophia pushed Anne down. Sophia was a hypocritical, crafty, and villainous woman. She murdered the love of Javier's life. Yet, he was entirely in the dark. Not only that, he had kept the murderer by his side and protected her for 20 whole years! Sophia deserved to die, but Javier wasn't any better. Javier clenched his teeth, his gaze piercing straight at Sophia, who looked pale. His eyes were filled with hatred, and his heart ached.The evocation of Anne's presence haunted him. It was like a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from. Unconsciously, a tear trickled from the corner of his eye.Not a single tear was shed at Anne's funeral, yet at this moment, an overwhelming sense of grief washed over him. Despite that, it felt too late now; shedding tears seemed meaningless.Simon staggered backward. He looked at Sophia in extreme shock. He felt as if someone had pulled the rug from under his feet.At this very moment, he finally understood.From the very beginnin

"No… No… No!"Sophia shook the metal railing so much that they were rattling. She continued to protest. She looked at Silas with a ferocious look on her face. She shouted, "Silas! You used false evidence to deceive me! As a prosecutor, how could you present false evidence? You were misusing your power! This is malpractice! Your evidence should be made inadmissible!"Silas stared at her mockingly. He didn't look afraid of her at all. It was indeed his dream to become a just prosecutor. This time, he had risked being suspended when he used false evidence to trick Sophia. That said, he didn't regret it a single bit. It didn't matter who it was who was seeking justice. It could've been someone other than Alyssa's lover. The victim could've been someone other than Jasper's mother. He would have done the same without any hesitation. His duty wasn't merely to adhere to the procedures of a prosecutor but to ensure justice prevailed, even if it meant confronting the darkest truths a

The corridor was previously empty. The loud footsteps of the Beckett family broke the silence in the hallway. Javier had a frosty expression on his face. His eyes were red. He was seething with rage as he strutted forward. The Beckett family members behind him held their breath. Rory followed closely behind Javier. He kept a straight expression on his face. But this hearing gave him an inexplicable feeling of relief in his heart.His heart harbored unspoken words for far too long.He had been in Javier's employ for a considerable time, witnessing Sophia's claim and enjoying everything that rightfully belonged to Anne. However, as a secretary, he could only go along with it. He had no other choice but to show respect to Sophia. This irked him. It made him feel indignant.Fortunately, justice prevailed. Even so, Rory pretended to be worried. He probed, "Mr. Javier, the verdict will be announced at 3:00 pm. Is there anything else that you need to get done before this? I can help

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

"Ms. Gillis, I've searched her thoroughly. She doesn't have anything on her." Sheryl's brows knitted in frustration. "How can that be? Where's her cell phone?" "There wasn't one." Sheryl, no longer concerned about dirtying herself, stepped forward, grabbed Amber by her hair, and forced her to meet her gaze."You bitch," Sheryl snarled. "You came to The Millennium at this hour for a reason. What did you find? Hand it over, and I might spare your worthless life!"Amber spat a mouthful of bloody saliva directly onto Sheryl's face."Fuck! You bitch!" Glaring at Amber, Sheryl rolled her sleeves up and slapped her twice in the face. Even so, it wasn't enough to quench her fury. She yelled, "Take her back!" Two of Sheryl's subordinates moved forward, dragging a limp Amber away. Sheryl's reddened eyes burned with fury as she wiped the spit off her face. She was teetering on the edge of madness."Search the area! Retrace her steps and leave no stone unturned!"…Jasper drove to
