Amber's pupils trembled in fear, and her slender legs under her skirt shook violently."Last time I visited him, I felt like his eyes were all over you."Jameson grabbed her chin forcefully, lifting it with enough force to crush her jawbone. "I can confirm he's taken an interest in you."It seems he isn't as refined as I thought. Since he can't obtain the real person, having a fake around for a feast of the eyes and to satisfy his desires might not be a bad choice."Amber's eyes were red-rimmed, with tears glistening as they emitted a plea of helplessness. "Mr. Schmidt... please... please don't send me to Mr. Justin."I've been loyal to you for so many years... Please don't send me away... I beg you!""What value do you have?"Jameson, who had been holding back his anger since his return, unleashed it all on Amber. He pushed her forcefully in the chest.Amber stumbled back two steps, banging into the wall with a dull thud. Her back felt cold and painful."Carl, pack her things

"D-Did something happen?" Amber wasn't concerned for Jameson. She just needed to have everything under control to protect herself."Sigh! Mr. Schmidt went to see Mr. Justin and found out that Mr. Justin sent the drug that Mr. Schmidt failed to deliver to the Taylors. All these while, Mr. Justin had never interfered with Mr. Schmidt and Ms. Alyssa's business."Now, at this juncture, he decided to show up as the good guy. Wouldn't this paint Mr. Schmidt, the one who used the drug to threaten Mr. Winston, as a petty man? "Ms. Alyssa would hate and despise him even more. Mr. Justin is throwing Mr. Schmidt under the bus to make himself look good. Mr. Schmidt had every right to be outraged!"Comparisons are odious.Jameson had a well-thought-out plan, but Justin's interference had painted him like a fool."Mr. Justin is not doing this for Mr. Jasper but for Ms. Alyssa."Carl sighed, "Mr. Schmidt had suspected Mr. Justin had feelings for Ms. Alyssa multiple times. From the looks of th

Justin kept to his word. Jasper received the drugs after one week.Jasper, who was hosting an important meeting in the Beckett Group, was on edge.When the meeting ended, he sprung up from his seat and darted out the doors like lightning.The management was left at their seats, exchanging glances."What is wrong with Mr. Beckett?""Haha! I think he had to relieve himself. The meeting was so long. I wouldn't have held it in if I were him. His kidneys are such champions!" "Not to mention his bladder too!"…Today, the KS Group had an important board meeting that required Winston to attend.However, Jameson's drugs ran out, and Julien was taken away by the Lovelace family. So, Winston grew more helpless.The effects of the drugs had worn off. He started feeling his body weakening. He couldn't stop yawning. His nose was runny, his head was spinning, and his vision was blurry. He didn't even manage to eat dinner last night because he had fallen into a deep slumber.He considered

Neil walked over to open the door and received the shock of his life. "Mr. Beckett?""Mr. Benton."Jasper stood at the entrance coldly. He was panting, indicating that he had rushed here. "Is Uncle Winston and Alyssa in there? I brought the drugs."When Alyssa heard his voice, she immediately got up and walked toward him. An uncontrollable sense of longing surged in her heart."Jasper!"Alyssa rushed into Jasper's wide embrace. The emotions she held in for so long had turned into tears and began streaming down.Jasper eagerly stretched his sturdy yet shaky arms to hug her. His eyes reddened. "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long, Alyssa. The wait wasn't in vain. I have the drugs."He quickly reached into the pocket of his overcoat and retrieved a long box. "There are six of them in here. It's more than what you received the last time. This should cover Uncle Winston for a while, in case he needs it."Alyssa took the box from him. Her heart was churning as she was ove

"Dad, I'm not letting you go! You'd better stay here!" Alyssa flared up and blocked her father's way."How dare you! I'm your father. You have no right to tell me what to do. You are in no place to make decisions for the Taylor family."Winston and Alyssa found themselves at a stalemate, unable to find common ground.Mandy panicked and froze where she was.It was the first time Jasper had experienced a situation like this after getting together with Alyssa. He didn't know how to comfort and how to mediate this argument."Dad, you…" Alyssa felt a sense of suffocation. She clenched her fists so hard that they'd turned pale. "Alyssa, if you want to be a good daughter, please don't anger me anymore. Please don't force me into this yelling match with you."Winston had drenched his nightwear in sweat. Even panting took up a lot of his energy. The sight of his beloved daughter slowly turned blurry in his eyes. "Please just let me do what I want this one time. Is it that hard?"…It

Winston frowned and coughed lightly. However, he didn't stop Alyssa. The smile on Dominic's face slowly faded. He gritted his teeth hard.Alyssa looked down, then slowly shifted her gaze from the bottom up. Her red lips curled into a contemptuous smile. "Also, I can't help but remind you, Uncle Dominic, when you attend an important event next time, please ask Renee to match your clothes for you. Red and green make you look like a walking Christmas tree."Winston cleared his throat, hinting at Alyssa to stop. Dominic, who was wearing a dark red suit with a dark green tie, froze.…After that debacle, Winston and Dominic entered the meeting room to start the meeting.Alyssa and Jasper waited at Winston's office.Alyssa lay horizontally on the couch and used Jasper's thigh as a pillow. She stared at Jasper's handsome face with thin lips and deep eyes. She was laughing hard."The memory of the horrified expression on Dominic's face when I unleashed my biting remarks fills me wit

"Fishy?" Jasper frowned.Alyssa said, "It's completely normal for your brother to get his hands on the medication. He had been in Mosgravia for many years. One word from him can get Jesseltons to partner with the Beckett Group."A dark look rested on Alyssa's face. "However, how did Jamiper get his hands on it?"Jasper was caught off guard by the question."The Schmidt family abandoned him. He had built his life in Kontina since the beginning. Why would he have any connections in Mosgravia?"Alyssa felt more unsettled the more she thought about it. "I have a wild theory. I'm wondering if Jameson knew your brother or at least had met your brother before."Jasper was about to object to her theory, but he remembered that Sheryl and Jameson had the same fragrance.Drawing conclusions about Sheryl and Jameson knowing each other from this fact seemed premature. Nevertheless, doubts continued to nag at him.Suddenly, hurried knocks echoed in the room.Jasper and Alyssa exchanged glan

Winston suddenly felt moisture seep from between his legs. Warm liquid trickled down his pants leg and to the floor.Neil was stunned to his core. But he swiftly recovered and yelled out, "The meeting is over. All of you are dismissed immediately!"Winston slowly looked down at the small puddle of water by his feet, mind blank. He'd always lived his life proud and lustrous, never in such a pathetic and hideous state.A great wave of shame consumed Winston, washing away the fear and pain from his illness. As the head of his family and company, he felt incredibly humiliated right now.Just then, two rows of bodyguards filed into the room and got everyone out as soon as possible before securing the entrance.Dominic sneakily pulled out his phone, wanting to record this humiliating moment. But before he could even start recording a video, pain shot through his wrist, making him release the phone.Dominic yelped in pain, stumbling backward as he clasped his injured arm. Standing in fr

"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

Beckett Group was, in essence, Javier's heart and soul, forged from his own labor. "Justin set me up, framed me for drug addiction, and bribed my primary physician to give false testimony—all so he could drag me down. The fact that he dared to target me like this means he's willing to betray anyone."Jasper took a deep breath, forcing down the rage roiling inside him as Javier remained silent. "Fine. Even if you insist this is just a family matter, Justin's reputation is already in ruins, and the corporation's stock prices are fluctuating. Are you really going to stand by him, even now?""Justin has explained everything to me. He wasn't aware of the bribery. That female doctor who worked for him acted on her own. Besides, she's been arrested. The backlash against Justin will settle in time…"Jasper listened, his face unreadable, but his heart clenched painfully. A lump rose in his throat, suffocating him.He had lost his mother at a young age, but he had never longed for his fa
