Chapter 2063

Author: Ginger Sue
Carl's blood ran cold at Jameson's words. He couldn't bring himself to speak.

"I told you to keep Nicholas under close watch, and as I expected, he's been communicating with someone." A cruel, mocking laugh escaped Jameson's lips. "Didn't I tell you? In this world, only the dead can be truly trusted."

"You're a genius, Mr. Schmidt!" Admiration and shock warred on Carl's face. "But, how did you realize something was off with Chief Novak?"

"He asked me about the drug development progress the other day, completely out of the blue. Never before has he bothered himself with such minor details."

Jameson circled the table, picking up a photo from a stack. He studied it with chilling coldness. The picture captured Jasper placing a lighter in Nicholas' hand during their meeting at a café.

A long moment passed before Jameson crumpled the photo into a tight ball, his eyes hardening with repressed fury.

"Are you planning to..." Carl ventured cautiously. "Forgive my bluntness, but Chief Nova

    Mandy began, "Everyone, I'm sure you've all heard about what happened recently at the Lovelace Group. This is an emergency, so I will keep it brief." Mandy took the center seat at the meeting table, exuding power and fearlessness. "Effective immediately, I will be taking over from my brother, Joseph and assume the position of Lovelace Group's chairman." The room erupted in an uproar. "Ms. Lovelace… No, I mean, Mrs. Taylor. You've married into the Taylor family. You can't be making decisions for the Lovelaces now." Someone mocked, "Furthermore, you had a falling out with Mr. Edgar to be with Mr. Winston. Don't think we've forgotten how you cut ties with the Lovelace family. "For the past 20 years, you never cared about Lovelace Group. Now that it's in trouble, you're the first to step in and claim it. Don't you think trying to get a slice of the pie makes you look bad?"The others joined in criticizing Mandy."It has been half a month since Lovelace Group got into trouble.

    "Julien…" Upon witnessing Julien's entrance, Mandy was moved to tears. Everyone else in the room was shocked to see Julien at first. Their shocked faces were subsequently replaced by looks of disdain shortly after. Everyone knew that Julien had been outcasted by the Lovelace family long ago. He wasn't allowed to participate in the corporation's operations. To them, he was simply a doctor who only studied CT scans in his doctor's office. They believed Julien knew nothing about the business world. Not just that, he was previously embroiled in a scandal. The photos of him being intimate with Jonah were exposed to the whole wide world, bringing humiliation to the Lovelace family. "This is a board meeting, Mr. Julien. It's not like those bars and nightclubs that you frequent. You're being a little too tactless!" The arrogant board member from before mocked Julien. His insult made everyone else chuckle. "The place you're occupying belongs to the Lovelace family. I am also part of

    Once the board meeting ended, the announcement about Mandy's and Julien's appointment was released to all Lovelace Group employees. Julien exited the meeting room. The moment he entered the chairman's office, he plunged into Jonah's arms. He nuzzled his sweaty face against Jonah's shoulder. He could finally feel at ease, knowing that he was finally back in his lover's presence. He also let go of the confident persona he was putting up and melted into Jonah's embrace."Congratulations, Mr. Julien. You've succeeded in taking over." Jonah lifted his hand and stroked Julien's hair gently. In a gentle and raspy voice, he said, "You are someone with status and a title now. You are the second-in-command in the Lovelace family. I'll have to rely on your support in the future, Mr. Julien." Julien clicked his tongue. "Forget it." Julien let out a long sigh. He said in a coy voice, "If you hadn't bulk purchased Lovelace Group's shares in secret to stabilize our share price, our corpora

    Landon was finally done preparing for his wedding with Lauren at Bernardia. He had made arrangements according to Lauren's preferences. Over the past month or so, Landon wished that he could split himself into multiples of himself. He had to look after Lauren, manage Harper Group, and manage the decorations at the wedding venue—from personnel assignments, their wedding photo shoot, and the positioning of even a small pot of flowers—everything had to be vetted by him. He made sure that he was all hands-on. His private plane flew between Bernardia and Solana City multiple times, so much so that he used up a considerable amount of fuel. Jordan was worried that it would all be too tiring for Landon. He offered to go to Bernardia on his behalf to keep watch over the preparations there, but Landon refused adamantly. He would rather see to it himself. He didn't care if he was jet-lagged or that he was losing sleep. He made sure that he went there in person to have a hand in the decora

    "Thank you for caring for my wife over this period. I've prepared a gift for you. My secretary has brought it to your office." Landon poured a cup of tea for Robbie. He was no longer the prideful man that he used to be. His speech and mannerisms were much friendlier now. The changes in Landon were indeed drastic. In order to become a brilliant leader like Jasper and for Lauren's sake, he was willing to let go of the man he used to be. "No worries at all, Mr. Harper. It's my job to be responsible for my patients. A gift isn't necessary. I am just doing my job." Robbie paused before continuing in a low voice, "Mr. Harper, we have performed a thorough body check for Mrs. Harper this morning. We found that she has endometriosis." Landon, while carrying a teacup in his hand, froze. His chest tightened. "What's that?" "It's not a major condition or anything. There can be many reasons why one develops this disease. In Mrs. Harper's case, it's a little more serious. "She told me

    As Lauren wrote, a soft and motherly glow came across her face. Landon, on the other hand, hid behind her. His face was downcast, and his pale lips trembled uncontrollably. He hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. He nuzzled against her longingly. His eyes filled with tears that were so close to streaming down his face. "Darling, didn't you say… that you didn't want to have children?" Landon's voice was unusually low and gravelly. With his lips right next to her ear, he asked, "Didn't you want to study art and be my only woman forever?" Lauren's lashes fluttered shyly. She focused her attention on writing, "That was in the past. That's not what's on my mind now." A lump rose in her throat. "Landon, I know that my physical condition isn't great. I have to take medications and get injections every day. I don't even know when I can be discharged. "It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl. I want to have a child whom we can raise together. This way, eve

    "Can you come and speak to Mr. Landon? He looks like he's having a breakdown. I'm quite terrified!" Jordan exclaimed. Jasper's chest tightened when he heard that. He turned around and walked toward the door. "Give me the address. I'll head over right now!" …When Jasper arrived, Landon was the only patron in the dimly lit pub. He was sitting by the bar and taking a glass of vodka from the bartender. Jasper asked Jordan to wait outside. Then, he walked over to Landon and sat down by his side. He placed his hand on Landon's shoulder."That's enough, Landon. These strong alcohols are not good for your health. You're about to have your wedding. You need to look after yourself." Landon lifted his head slowly. His drawn and pale face was covered in tears. His eyes were bloodshot. It made Jasper's heart wrench to see him like that. "Why are you crying?" Jasper was astonished. He looked at him intently. "What in the world happened? Don't be like this. Tell me what's wrong, and we

    A white winter day with fluttering snow was the perfect symbol of purity and romance. It was Christmas Eve. The time had come for Landon and Lauren's fairytale wedding at faraway Bernardia. The Becketts' and the Taylors' private planes set off. Both families landed at Bernardia Airport one after the other. Then, via Landon's arrangements, they were transported to a fortress where they would stay. Landon had booked the entire historic estate for a whole month. The fortress in front was to be used for their wedding reception, whereas the block behind was the accommodation for friends and family. In other words, if they wanted to stay on to enjoy Bernardia's beautiful scenery after the wedding, they could continue staying there temporarily while they toured around and soaked in the beauty of a foreign land. This estate was a historic site. Over the last century, it had never been rented out for anyone's private use. This was the first time in history and might also be the last.

    The bar was alive with striking lights and thundering music, and the air was thick with the scent of tobacco and alcohol. The atmosphere was one of moral decay—corrupt, degrading, and vile. "Where's Julien?" Jonah's voice cut through the noise, his tone icy and sharp. When Jonah stepped inside, the eyes of several men turned toward him, their gazes filled with illicit intent."Why, hello there. Are you here alone? Are you feeling lonely?" A sexy man sauntered over, draping himself over Jonah's shoulders. He let his hands linger with a playful squeeze. "If you're bored, I'd be happy to keep you company." Jonah's expression darkened. His hands trembled, veins bulging with barely contained rage. Suddenly, Evan burst through the crowd, his face twisting in alarm at the sight of Jonah surrounded by a swarm of predatory men. Evan yelled, "Don't touch him!" A heavy thump reverberated through the room. Gasps erupted as people scrambled back.The man who had draped himself over

    Rafe stated, "But Beckett Group is in the middle of a storm right now. If I insisted on giving your corporation the project, my superiors would investigate me. I wouldn't be able to escape unscathed!""If you're investigated, I'll make sure you can still live a life of luxury—even if you lose your job." Justin's tone darkened. "But if you turn against me, you won't just suffer a few losses. You'll lose everything."Under the dim moonlight, Justin fiddled with his antique tea cup, his gaze narrowing. "You've worked so hard to get to where you are. Are you prepared to lose it all?"After ending the call, Justin turned to Remy, who stood quietly at the side. "Sheryl is still being detained. She can't be bailed out for another two days. I need someone to watch over the research lab. You'll handle that."Remy was taken aback. "I failed my last mission. Aren't you going to punish me?"Justin's smile was cold and insincere. "It wasn't your fault. You were ambushed. If not for that, I tru

    Remy pursed his lips, bending down to pick up the fallen poker card. It was the King of Spades—an entry pass to Kings' Club. "My attacker was…" Remy's pupils constricted as he tightened his grip on the card. "It can only be that dear uncle of mine, always claiming to see me as his own son." Justin's lips curled into a sinister smile. "He's trying to get rid of my right-hand man, taking advantage of my internal feud with Jasper. Weakening me is just his first step toward gaining control over me."He's been a fugitive ever since his successful prison break, never returning to Cyrris after receiving his life sentence. His power base remains in Kontina. "I'm the last surviving Dutton. The Dutton Group, as a cover, has declared bankruptcy and severed all ties with the country.

It seems he truly doesn't trust me, his only remaining family."Remy lowere

    The hospital ward grew heavy with silence. Mandy and Neil stared at Alyssa, stunned beyond words. "M-Ms. Alyssa, you knew that man was Mr. Damien?" Neil asked, disbelief etched into his voice. "Yes." Alyssa's reply was quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper. "We found out when Cyrus took Damien's cigarette butt for a paternity test."Mandy approached Alyssa, her shoulders trembling slightly. "So, you and Cyrus knew… and you both kept it from me?" Mandy said, her voice catching in her throat, tears welling up. Alyssa felt a sharp pang in her chest. "Mandy, I'm sorry. It was my decision. Cyrus had nothing to do with it."Mandy's tears fell freely now, her grief spilling out in raw sobs. "Do you know what it's been like for me all these years, thinking Damien was gone? Winston, Miley, Lyla, and Colene kept telling me to move on. I tried to accept that he was dead, that we'd never find his body. But I never did."Her vo

    The hospital ward was bathed in a dim, yellow glow from the bedside lamp. The silence was thick, yet the room held a strange warmth—an unfamiliar comfort that felt oddly familiar to Remy.Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to sit up. His eyes fell on Mandy, who was asleep beside his bed. Her hair was a mess, and her swollen eyes suggested she'd been crying. She was sound asleep. Remy stiffened. His breath quickened as he stared at her fragile figure. Slowly, he leaned forward, his fingers lifting slightly, tempted to reach out.Just as his hand hovered close, Mandy's lashes fluttered. In her sleep, she murmured, "Damien… Damien… I miss you so much…" Tears slipped down her cheeks, silent and unbidden.A pang tugged at Remy's heart. Without thinking, he brushed away her tears with his calloused fingers. The moment his skin touched hers, a jolt shot through him, sharp and electrifying. Pain throbbed at his temples, but beneath it was a warmth he didn't want to let g

    Justin's casual question hit Javier like a thunderclap. Shock rippled through him, freezing his expression. His voice trembled with fear as he barked, "What nonsense is that? Are you accusing me of causing Chester's death? I'm your father—how could you think I'd do such a thing?""It's not an accusation. Just the facts," Justin replied coolly, crossing his legs and savoring his tea with unsettling calm. "And I'm not condemning you. In fact, I understand why you did it. I'm facing the same dilemma now."Javier's breathing grew ragged. He had watched Justin grow from a child into the man before him—now a predator, circling with quiet menace."You were meant to be the heir as the eldest son," Justin continued, his voice smooth as silk. "But Grandpa favored Uncle Chester, handing him major projects, grooming him in plain sight. "Uncle Chester's reputation soon eclipsed yours. He was a natural leader, adept at business, with one fatal flaw—he was kind. Too kind. Unlike you."Justin

    Nonetheless, night had fallen by the time Justin arrived at Seaview Manor. On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible. Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully. He had never lost contact with Remy before. Justin's face was as dark as the night itself. The moment he stepped inside Seaview Manor, Rory approached with a solemn expression. He gave a slight bow before speaking. "Mr. Justin, what took you so long? Mr. Javier has been waiting.""I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back here yet?" A conflicted look came across Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. I doubt he'll want to see you anytime soon—or show up here.""Is that so? How disappointing."Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he se

    Jonah scoured every corner of the hotel, desperation clawing at his chest, but Julien was nowhere to be found. "Jonah!" Alyssa called out, breathless as she caught up to him. She grabbed his arm. "Calm down! I'll help you search for Jul!""I can't find him. He's gone," Jonah murmured, sinking to the floor. His tears mixed with sweat, creating dark patches on the ground. "Lyse… I fear… if I can't find Julien this time, I'll lose him forever."The agonizing thought of losing the love of his life pierced him. "No, you won't!" Alyssa gripped his arm tighter, her voice trembling with conviction. "If Jul had given up on you, he wouldn't have come here today. The fact that he showed up means he still cares."Jonah's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a pain too deep to hide. He shook his head slowly. "Julien came back for Jasper. He did it because he's loyal… because he's a good friend. Not because of me.""He does care!" Alyssa insisted. "If he didn't, he would've faced you without fli

    "Don't say that. You've done really well so far!" Xavier said gently, his voice a steady anchor as he tried to comfort Julien.He continued, "Many people spend their whole lives unable to quit even common drugs. The substance Mr. Beckett took is far more potent. The fact that he's found any relief at all is remarkable."Jasper's senses gradually returned, but he was left drained, and his eyes struggled to focus. "Julien…" "I'm right here," Julien murmured, leaning in to gently wipe the tears and cold sweat from Jasper's face with a tissue. Struggling for breath, Jasper rasped, "Keep my condition… a secret… especially from her." Julien didn't need to ask who he meant. It had to be Alyssa. It wasn't pride that fueled Jasper's plea. It was something deeper—a desperate wish to shield Alyssa from the sight of his brokenness, to spare her the disappointment of seeing him like this.Xavier helped Jasper to stand before addressing Julien.
