FAZER LOGINEveryone was stunned. Ivan was so shaken by the slap that he could only clutch his swollen cheek, speechless. "This isn't Kontina, and you're not in your royal court. Watch your language," Alyssa said coldly, poking Ivan's stiff, ashen face as she fixed him with an icy stare. Then she shot Anthony a frosty glance. "Keep your dog on a leash, Mr. Stewart. If you can't, I'll have to step in myself."Axel burst into laughter, clapping his hands. "Nice one, Lyse! But let me handle it next time. I don't want you hurting your hand.""I know who you are, young lady." Not only was Anthony unangered, he even smiled warmly at Alyssa. "Princess Yuliana speaks of you often. She's very fond of you." Alyssa's voice turned flat. "Princess Yuliana, you say? Seems you and your daughter have grown distant. Since she isn't your biological daughter, you're no longer willing to acknowledge her, is that it?"Anthony's expression stiffened at once. He pressed his lips together. At the same time,
Neil's question sent a sharp pang through Anthony's heart. The composed, aristocratic expression on his face nearly cracked. Neil sneered. "I don't care if you're the president or a king. Don't you even dream of taking the Taylor brothers away from Mr. Winston. If you insist, then let's settle this in court! "Putting aside the fact that you have no chance of winning, do you really think the Taylor brothers would acknowledge you as their father? I'd say they hate you to the core!"Those words struck a raw nerve. Anthony rose abruptly to his feet.At that moment, the study door was flung open, and an angry roar shattered the tension. "Who cares if you're the king of a damn country? Stop dreaming! There's no way we're leaving with you!" Axel stormed in first, his temper blazing. Silas and Liam followed close behind, with Jonah and Alyssa entering after them.Jasper, Julien, and the others remained outside. This was a family matter for the Taylors—something that had to be resolv
The moment Jonah dropped that bombshell, his three brothers erupted in protest. "That's impossible! Absolutely impossible!" "Winston is my only father!" "Winston may not be perfect, but he's the only father I'll ever acknowledge. Anyone else can get lost! Just because the king's own son is gone, he thinks he can take someone else's? What the hell? Has he lost his mind?"Amid the heated outburst, Alyssa noticed the grim expressions on Lyla's and Colene's faces. It was as if they had long anticipated this outcome. Clearly, they knew the truth, but they had chosen to bury this earth-shattering secret deep within their hearts. "Lyla… Colene… you already knew, didn't you?" Alyssa asked, her voice trembling, her heart pounding wildly.Colene lowered her head. "To be honest, we only know part of it… Mandy is the one who knows everything. She and Jennifer were extremely close back then—closer than anyone else. You could say they shared everything."With a somber expression, Lyla add
At last, the entire family was reunited. Alyssa and Miley threw their arms around each other, clinging tightly as they sobbed, unable to find the words to express everything they felt. This was the nature of kinship—no words were needed. Even if they rarely saw each other, the bond between them remained unshaken. "Miley, have you visited Mandy and Damien at the hospital?" With tears brimming in his eyes, Silas spoke hoarsely. "Mandy is still unconscious, but Damien has regained his memories. He's… He's finally come back to us.""I know. Lyse told me over the phone earlier." Miley's voice trembled with emotion. "This is wonderful news. Truly wonderful. Damien is still alive, and our family can finally…"She faltered, unable to finish her sentence. Both she and Jeremy knew that Anthony's personal visit to Winston meant something life-altering was about to unfold. Jeremy's usually sharp, commanding presence was gone. His eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion, and he looked visibly g
All of a sudden, something flickered in Winston's dark, lifeless eyes. It was as if a hole had been torn through the very core of his being, sending cracks splintering across his entire world in an instant. A familiar, crushing pain seized his chest again—so intense that he let out a low groan and clutched at his heart. "Mr. Taylor!" Neil rushed forward and caught Winston as he trembled, steadying him with both hands. He shot Anthony a sharp look, barely holding back his anger. "Mr. Stewart, if you have something to say, just say it. Mr. Taylor has only just recovered from his illness. He doesn't have the strength to go back and forth with you like this!""I'll get straight to the point, then." In an instant, all warmth vanished from Anthony's face. A cold, commanding authority settled over him as he declared, "I intend to acknowledge my son and bring him home. I will also name him the heir to the throne." Neil's chest heaved as his hands curled into tight fists. Felicity
Alyssa's jaw dropped. "Someone from the royal family?" The first person who came to mind was Yuliana. Had she been cast out by the royal family? With nowhere else to go, had she come here seeking refuge, and perhaps to see Liam?"You know what? I'll just tell her!" Impatient as ever, Colene blurted out, "It's the king of Kontina. Wait… Do they call him His Majesty? Whatever. It's Kontina's king, and he's here at our house!"Alyssa gasped. "What?" Lyla's eyes were filled with concern. "He's in your father's study right now, meeting with him. Your brothers are all waiting outside, but Winston isn't letting anyone in. We're worried, but there's nothing we can do."Alyssa felt a sudden sense of foreboding, as if something momentous was about to unfold. Without another word, she turned and hurried out. "I'm going to take a look!" …The atmosphere in the study was tense—heavy enough to suffocate. Winston sat across from the king of Kontina, Anthony Stewart. Though neither spoke,
Before noon, Alyssa hurried back to Heightsnew Villa.Upon hearing her return, Colene immediately rushed down from upstairs. "Lyse!""Colene!" Alyssa hurried to greet her, and the two women hugged tightly. "Thank you for your help this time.""Don't say that. I'm already grateful that you and Jasper do
Alyssa trembled with anger and tears in her eyes as she roared, "From the moment you stepped into this manor, every move you made was being recorded by hidden cameras and live streamed. The entire country has witnessed your crimes. Preston has tricked you from the start, yet you continue to hide the
Jasper grappled with heartache. The contrast between his tall figure and his helpless demeanor made him the more pitiful.Axel shot up from the bed and grabbed Jasper's collar. Fixing a piercing gaze on Jasper, he bellowed, "What have you done to my sister? Did you force her into BDSM?""No…""Why is s
Alyssa burst out laughing. "I can tell that you've really been trying to curb your urges, Mr. Landon. Jasper is just brushing my hair. I can't believe that your mind wandered elsewhere." Alyssa stroked her soft hair, which Jasper had helped with maintaining. "Landon, you don't have to rush the weddi
