LOGINStep by step, Jonah walked into the darkness, his footsteps steady and determined. The front doors slammed shut behind him with a resounding groan, as if a deep abyss had opened and swallowed him whole. At the same time, Jasper and Remy stood side by side in the chilling wind atop a tall abandoned building across from the factory, their grim gazes fixed on the structure."That guy is slick. He picked a factory that's completely sealed off. No one outside can see what's going on inside."Jasper tightened his grip on the magazine of his sniper rifle. "There's no way I can have an accurate shot if I can't see his exact position."Remy knitted his brows tightly. "What about thermal imaging? We could use it to track the movement of people inside the building."Jasper shook his head slightly. "It's useless. Even if we can see them, they're too far away, and there are too many obstacles in the way. I won't be able to take him down with a single shot, no matter how good a shooter I am.
"Shut the hell up, you cheap substitute!" Uri shouted, exploding with humiliated rage as Jonah's words struck a raw nerve. He lifted his foot and kicked Julien hard in the stomach.Julien let out a muffled groan of pain. "Julien!" Jonah's heart felt as if it were being torn apart. Unable to wait any longer, he roared, "You want me to come to you, don't you? Stop wasting your breath and give me the address. I'll be there immediately!""Of course I'll send you the address shortly. But you have to come alone. No guns. No tricks."With a sinister smirk, Uri continued, "Otherwise, I'll make sure your lover breathes his last right in front of me. Even if I end up dying by your hands, at least I'll have him accompany me to the afterlife. I suppose I wouldn't feel too lonely then." "Uri—"Before Jonah could finish speaking, Uri ended the call. "We're coming with you, Jonah!" Alyssa stepped forward, her bloodshot eyes blazing. She grabbed Jonah's trembling hands and held them ti
"Julien!" Jonah roared. His heart seized, and his eyes turned red instantly. How could he possibly not save Julien? He had to save him, even if it meant going through hell and being battered and crushed along the way. "Jonah, remember my voice?" From the other end of the line, Uri's mocking voice drifted into Jonah's ear like a ghost rising from hell."Uri Holland!" Jonah growled, uttering the name engraved in his mind through clenched teeth, his eyes bloodshot. Uri let out a chilling chuckle. "Seems like I left quite an impression on you, Judas." "Let my love go! If you want revenge or need someone to vent your anger on, come at me!"Jonah's eyes blazed with fury as a violent energy erupted from him. He roared, "Listen carefully, Uri. If you come for me, I'll gladly give you my life. But if you lay even a finger on Julien… I'll tear you apart and grind you into dust!""Jonah!" Alyssa's heart pounded as tears filled her eyes. Of course she was worried about Julien's safe
Jonah immediately rushed forward to support Remy. At the same time, Alyssa leaped out of bed, but since she hadn't fully recovered, the sudden movement made her lightheaded and caused her to stagger. Suddenly, she felt a strong, steady arm wrap around her supple waist as Jasper's warm, reassuring presence surrounded her. "Be careful." Almost instinctively, Jasper tightened his arms and pulled her closer.A single tear rolled down Alyssa's cheek as she leaned against his chest and wrapped her arms more tightly around his waist. She had decided to go all in. Even if the world were to end the next moment, she wanted to hold him close. He was Jasper Beckett—the person she loved the most. "W-Whenever I-I try to think about the past… even for a moment… I get struck by an agonizing headache." Though Remy felt slightly better after drinking some warm water, he still trembled from the pain. "All these years, whenever my headaches hit… Justin would give me a medication he claimed co
Home…This unfamiliar yet welcoming word left a deep imprint on Remy's pounding, fragile heart, sending sorrow and warmth surging through his chest at the same time. After a moment of silence, he spoke, not even noticing the faint tremble in his chapped lips."Thank you, Jasper." …Amber was rushed to the Taylor family's hospital for emergency treatment. Her life now hung in the balance. Meanwhile, Axel stood outside the emergency room, stiff as a board. From behind, his upright figure resembled a desolate, timeless statue. "Amber… my dearest…" Axel's bloodshot eyes filled with tears. Slowly, the tall man sank to the ground—first to one knee, then the other. Pressing his palms together, he muttered, "You have always been so resilient. You have to hang in there. I beg you… Don't leave me here on my own… "If there really is a God, I'm willing to give up the rest of my years in exchange for my darling Amber's health and safety from now on." He had once been a cold realist,
Jasper gazed into Remy's frosty eyes. "What about you? How did you end up following Justin?"Remy's eyes were dark, like a bottomless abyss devoid of light. "To be frank, I have no idea."Jasper frowned. "You don't?""When I came to, I was lying in a special ward. It didn't look like a hospital ward—more like a regular room with a really nice ambience. I couldn't move a muscle. My entire body was connected to tubes, and I was in so much pain that it felt as if all the bones in my body had been shattered and reconstructed…"Remy thought back to the ward that was filled with sunlight—the place where he first met Justin. The lake outside the window was as clear as glass, and he could see the shadows of trees swaying back and forth. Justin sat in his wheelchair by the window, backlit by the sun. He greeted Remy warmly. "Wonderful. You're finally awake. All that hard work wasn't wasted."Over the next six months, Justin visited him almost daily. He talked with him, brought him delici
Jasper was clearly humiliating her in front of everyone.Sure enough, disdain and contempt clouded everyone's gazes when they looked at her."You can't simply give this order just because you're the CEO! The president should be the one making this decision. How could you abuse your power?" Having no o

Alyssa felt the warmth from Jasper's hand against her skin. She kept her complaints to herself, deeming Jasper a "crazy piece of garbage." She couldn't fathom his actions and wished he would withdraw his dirty hands.Sensing her urge to free herself, he gripped her tighter, almost crushing her body.
The servants inhaled sharply, some even covering their mouths in shock. Did Sophia intend to take advantage of her marital status to turn the household upside down?All eyes were on Zoe and Penelope, the latter of whom had a look of utter surprise on her face."Darling, is what Mrs. Beckett is saying
