"Mr. Javier had hired a classical opera singer for sir, as something special for his birthday, but her student came to me just now reporting that the singer suddenly caught a terrible bug. She's still in the bathroom, unable to perform," Ben said worriedly. He continued, "What can be done? The singer was hired just to perform for Mr. Beckett Senior. He's going to be disappointed. The guests will make a fool of us.""Not on my watch." Alyssa assumed a confident stance. "Don't worry, Mr. Gorham. By the time the night is over, the guests will be leaving in awe."Jasper's heart skipped a beat at that. They weren't technically husband and wife anymore, yet she was still standing up for his family in their times of need to ensure his grandfather had a memorable birthday."Do you have a plan, Ms. White?" Ben smiled."Could you show me the way to the stage, Mr. Gorham?" Alyssa said, then left with Ben while Jasper stood there, still in awe.He blinked slowly, clenching his hands into

Alyssa stood on stage, her face delicately painted with peacock blue and purple. Her bright eyes met Jasper's, sending another jolt into his heart.When she began singing, her voice thoroughly enchanted him."The sweet sound! His voice struck me! Ah, that voice, which has descended into my heart!"Jasper stared at her in shock. The two seemed so close yet so far, one a young, promising woman, one a rich family's heir. One smile from her was enough to rock his entire world."Is that … Is that really Alice?" Newton asked, shocked. "It really is! Look at her features, her delicate cheeks, her beautiful smile. That's … That really is her!"Jasper suddenly fell back into his seat. Delicate cheeks … beautiful smile …His temple began to throb painfully."Jasper? What's wrong? Are you okay?" Landon asked, seeing how his friend's face looked pale."I'm … fine," Jasper grunted, massaging his temples as he sank into his thoughts.Why was Alyssa's name suddenly so familiar? Where had

Betty asked, "What plan do you have in mind?"Liana glanced around the surroundings, making sure there was no one else nor any security cameras before pulling out a vial from her purse."What's that?" Betty asked.Liana grinned with evil glee. "Something that, once consumed, will unleash irresistible impulses in every individual. It's particularly effective for cheap whores like Alice White.""What?" Betty shrieked but was quickly silenced with a hand on her mouth."Shh! Be quiet!" "Y-You wanna drug Alice? During tonight's celebration?"Liana whispered deviously, "If we can get Alice to sleep with Jonah tonight right when the celebration is going on, imagine the impact on her!"Then, Alice's carefully built reputation would crumble apart in front of the masses, angering and disgusting both Jasper and her grandfather. Even the Taylor family wouldn't want anything to do with her anymore."Plus, you hate how close she is with Mr. Harper, don't you? Do you think he would still wa

Jonah recovered from his shock and got up from his seat. "Dad, what are you doing here?"He shot a worried look at the stage, where Alyssa was."What? Why can't I be here? Hey, you never even let me know you were coming. We would've made such the entrance earlier," Winston scowled, then shot Newton a hearty smile. "Long time no see, old man. Your youth has not left you, I see!""My goodness, what an honor to have you here!" Newton hurriedly stood up to shake hands with Winston.Javier and the rest of Newton's family hurriedly stood up to greet Winston.Jasper, on the other hand, had narrowed his eyes. He didn't recall seeing Winston and Jonah Taylor's names on the guest list earlier tonight. It didn't seem like Newton had known they were coming over either.That could only mean Javier had personally invited the man.But why?"I apologize for being late. We just got off the plane. Come, let me drink to your health!" Winston raised a glass of wine.Jasper couldn't help but be

Jasper peered at the stage, but Alyssa had long left. He could only frown, brows knit together in focus.…The wait staff were busying about in the kitchen when a simply-clad maid slipped into the room. Betty had gotten through to her, so she was prepared to do her dirty work for her.She kept away from the cameras and took out the vials Betty had given her before adding them to two champagne glasses. She then topped it off with champagne."One for Mr. Jonah Taylor and the other for Mr. Landon Harper. Do you understand? You have to make sure he drinks it."That was the instruction Betty had given her.This would be the maid's golden ticket to being rich. She was determined not to mess up.Right after she finished topping the drinks, the urge to go to the restroom hit her like a pillow to the face. She quickly ran off, leaving the glasses unattended.Just then, a woman in a white cotton dress snuck into the kitchen. She was the Beckett family's fourth child, Lauren Beckett.Her

Liana felt indignant when she heard Jasper say the word "forced."That was the first time Liana took the initiative to kiss him first. How could he see it as being forced?"But Jasper, I'm your fiancée! How could you? How could you say that of me?" Liana's eyes reddened with tears."You knew from the start that I never liked women who made the first move, nor can I tolerate intimate acts." Jasper's tone was icy.Liana muttered, "I know … I've always known …" Liana knew that due to his upbringing and childhood trauma, he always had a hard time being intimate with the opposite sex. Being able to communicate his emotions was already a big improvement for him.He was such a fine man. If it hadn't been Alyssa who took him away from her, it would have been some other woman.Jasper's hand curled into a fist, recalling Alice's cold gaze from afar. "You say you've always known, but you seem to have wilfully forgotten about it since we started dating again." What was this emotion he wa

Alyssa stood in the empty guest room, and no sound was heard. She fumbled for the light switch, calling, "Jonah! Jonah, are you there?"A low voice came from the bedroom, too low for her to hear.She quickly went into the bedroom, calling, "Jonah? Are you okay?!""Al-Alyssa, stay away!" Jonah yelled, his breath coming in harsh pants."What's wrong, Jonah? You're scaring me!" Alyssa went and opened the bedroom door.It was dark inside, but she could still see Jonah leaning against the foot of the bed. He looked like he had just taken a dive in the lake. He was soaked with moisture.He had taken off his suit, leaving only his white dress shirt sticking against his skin, the buttons open to reveal his flushed red skin."Jonah—""I've been … I've been drugged." Jonah closed his eyes, trying to stay conscious. "I tried a cold bath, but it … it didn't work. The drug's too strong!""How could this happen?" Alyssa cried, angry and panicked at the same time.She was masterfully skille

Newton's suggestion had Javier's and Sophia's faces falling flat on the table. Betty, on the other hand, nearly spat out her drink."Don't joke about these things, Grandpa!" Jasper said sternly.Winston was just as stunned as everyone else."You have three daughters, if I remember correctly?" Newton asked, to which Winston nodded."Yes, three. I have a total of nine children. They're enough for me for a lifetime now.""Ah, and are those three married yet?" Winston replied awkwardly, "My sixth child, Miley, has already married. She's currently overseas. My youngest, Tatiana, is still in school. I don't want her to marry just yet. Let her enjoy her youth and whatnot.""What about your third girl, the one you dote on? What was her name again? Al-something?"Winston's gaze turned gentle at the thought of his favorite daughter. "That's my eighth child, Alyssa."Jasper felt something like thunder hit him. His grip on his wineglass nearly slipped."Right! Alyssa! I remember seeing

Julien's questions sent the hall into an uproar. In an instant, the number of viewers on the live stream shot up to 50 million, and the comment section exploded."Dr. Lovelace has presented Mr. Jasper's examination reports. He never did drugs—he was framed! This is undeniable!""He risked his life to save Ms. Alyssa, yet ended up being manipulated, dismissed, and investigated like a criminal. He almost carried a lifelong stain on his name. What a despicable move by whoever did this!"Then, a comment appeared, saying, "Wasn't it Justin Beckett, the current president of Beckett Group, who orchestrated all of this? He set up his own younger brother just to seize power. What a vile man!"Yet, less than two seconds later, the comment vanished.But no matter how many trolls swarmed in or how quickly posts were deleted, the public's outrage could not be silenced. Suspicion against Justin surged, and tens of thousands of negative comments flooded the chat.Julien stood below the stage,

The once lively and fashion-loving Julien now seemed like a star that had lost its light. The radiance that once defined him had vanished. Julien walked past Jonah without stopping. The short distance between them gave Jonah a painfully clear view of the cross-shaped scar on Julien's cheek. His heart wrenched, the pain so intense that his vision blurred. He staggered. "Jonah, are you alright?" Fortunately, Landon was beside him and caught him just in time. Staring at Julien's slim figure, Jonah parted his dry lips, but no words came out.Bitterness filled the back of his throat, and his longing for Julien sent sharp, stabbing pains through his body.Julien stopped beside Jasper, offering him a small smile and a nod as a greeting.Then, his gaze turned fierce as he locked eyes with Justin's hypocritical expression."My name is Julien Lovelace. I was once Mr. Jasper's primary physician. Approximately six months ago, Mr. Jasper made a deal with Jameson to rescue Ms. Alyssa w

Alyssa stood at the doorway, her slim figure framed against the light, yet she seemed to tower over the room. Her presence commanded attention, filling the hall with an air of reverence and grandeur. From across the room, Jasper's dark eyes burned with intensity. To him, Alyssa was like a golden phoenix, its wings unfurling as it soared, radiating brilliance over everything in its wake. "Lyse!"Jonah and Landon stared in shock. They hadn't expected Alyssa to show up at the press conference. Camera flashes erupted once more."It's Ms. Alyssa Taylor!""We should address her properly now—she's the head of KS Group!" "Wait… Is she here to support Jasper? I thought they broke up?""What do you even know? They used to be in love!" Justin narrowed his eyes at Alyssa's frigid, determined expression. Slowly, his lips curled into a chilling, sinister smile.Alyssa met his gaze, suppressing the hatred surging within her. Then, with an air of composure, she turned to the crowd. "W

"That's rubbish. I never asked you to do anything like that!" Sheryl's bloodshot eyes burned with fury. She clenched her fists, longing to silence Sebastian."I didn't expect you to admit it," Sebastian said coldly. He reached into his chest pocket and pulled out his phone. After scrolling briefly, he held it up for all to see. "You were wary of me recording our conversations, but you never suspected I'd install a hidden camera in my office. This footage clearly shows you bribing and threatening me. With this evidence, denial is futile!"The crowd turned to Sheryl, their gazes heavy with shock and suspicion. When their eyes shifted to Justin, doubt lingered in the air.Sheryl's heart sank, her face draining of color.As cautious as she was, she had miscalculated. But it didn't matter. She had carried out the task herself, avoiding any direct mention of Justin's orders. Justin could still be saved.It was Sheryl who had fallen short in her responsibilities, and she was ready to tak

Jasper's eyes blazed with fury as he locked his gaze on Justin, a sharp, determined gleam in his dark eyes. "I will clear my name and restore my reputation, no matter the cost!" he declared, his voice ringing with resolve.The tension between Justin, standing on stage, and Jasper, positioned below, was palpable—like a killer whale facing off with a great white shark. The outcome was still uncertain."I, Landon Harper, swear on my name and the entirety of Harper Group that Jasper never did drugs. The whole situation was a setup!" Landon's voice resounded throughout the entire hall. The reporters buzzed with questions. "Who would do such a thing?"Landon refrained from directly naming Justin, aware that exposing the wolf in sheep's clothing would not be easy. Accusing him too hastily might provide Justin with an opportunity to counterattack, exploiting any gaps in their case.Landon had no fear of tarnishing his own reputation, but he was deeply concerned about the damage it m

Everyone turned to look behind them.Justin's icy gaze locked onto the doors, his expression dark and foreboding. The light pouring in from outside was blinding, piercing through the shadows like a blade. As the crowd squinted against the glare, two figures emerged, standing tall and resolute side by side.It was Jasper and Landon. Clad in a sleek black suit, Landon bore traces of dust but appeared otherwise unscathed. Jasper, however, was a stark contrast. His clothes were torn and bloodied, his appearance disheveled, but his demeanor was anything but defeated. Standing straight and proud, his frigid stare was enough to make the crowd shrink back, unwilling to meet his eyes."Mr. Justin," Landon began, his voice sharp and cutting, "you've gone to great lengths to keep Jasper from this press conference."Ever the rebel with the air of a street-hardened fighter, Landon didn't mince words. "To stop him, you sent assassins to ambush him. You had your people block his way in the

Meanwhile, the light above one of Taylor General Hospital's emergency surgery theaters flickered off. Moments later, the door swung open, and a doctor emerged, pulling down his surgical mask. Mandy hurried toward the doctor, her eyes brimming with worry. "How is that poor man doing?" "Mrs. Taylor, it's fortunate you brought him in when you did. Ten minutes later, and we might not have been able to save him. He went into shock from excessive blood loss, but he's stable now. I gave him a transfusion and sutured his wounds. He'll need rest and proper nutrition to recover fully."Relief washed over Mandy, and her tense body slackened. Her knees nearly buckled as she murmured, "Thank God… Thank God!" Once the doctor departed, Mandy instructed her driver to purchase the best blood-replenishing supplements available, sparing no expense.The driver had only been employed by the Taylor family for the past two years, so he was unaware of the true reasons behind Mandy's actions. To him, h

Soon enough, Jasper and Jonah found themselves surrounded by a horde of fighters. The atmosphere was charged with a vicious, merciless tension that heightened their awareness. They were now in the underground parking lot of Berenike Hotel.This was one of the Beckett family's properties, with Newton overseeing the construction personally.Berenike Hotel had always been the leader among all the five-star hotels in Solana City. Yet, on this day, when a critical press conference was about to begin, Justin chose to start a massacre in the hotel's parking lot, disregarding the potential damage to the hotel's reputation. His actions were utterly insane and perverse. "Shall we each take down ten of them?" Jonah nudged Jasper with his elbow. Narrowing his eyes, he added, "The press conference starts in ten minutes. Think you can wrap this up by then?"A cold, fierce glint flashed in Jasper's usually dull eyes. "I'll take down 15 and leave five for you." "Why only five for me?"Jasp

The golden iris stood as a symbol of triumph."Ms. Alyssa, we're on track. We'll make it to the press conference on time!" Sean declared, stepping on the accelerator with a fiery look in his eyes. "Safety first," Alyssa reminded him in a calm, steady voice. Surprisingly, at this crucial juncture, she appeared composed. "Taty is due soon, and you're about to become a father. As a family man, you shouldn't be as reckless as before." The thought of his unborn son brought a blissful smile to Sean's face, softening his fiery resolve.Alyssa closed her eyes, though her mind remained in overdrive. The truth was, she was forcing herself to stay alert. Ever since Amber's disappearance, she hadn't had a single restful night. The once carefree Alyssa, who could sleep through anything, was long gone. Her frayed nerves left her in a weakened state, but she held on.She had survived when others hadn't, and that resilience fueled her belief that she could endure again. This time, she wou
