Jasper discreetly clenched his trembling hands into fists under the table. With a dim look in his eyes, he answered Sheryl, "I'm fine. What brings you here, Dr. Gillis?" Sheryl smiled warmly. "Mr. Jasper, have you forgotten? Mr. Javier instructed me to stay by your side and keep a close watch on your health whenever I have time." "Even so, don't you know what the most basic manners are?" Deep down, Xavier rolled his eyes. "Even if you wanted to look after Mr. Jasper's health, the president's office isn't a place you can barge into just as you wish. Dr. Gillis, are you as impolite as this before Mr. Justin too?" Sheryl wasn't offended. Instead, she lifted her lips into a smile. "Every field of work is different. Mr. Hall, you're only saying this because you've never been in this field. So, I don't blame you. "But, if Mr. Jasper's condition were to flare up while there was no one around him to tend to him, would you be responsible if anything bad happened to him?" Xavier burned

"Please thank Justin on my behalf." Jasper looked at Sheryl with an emotionless gaze. "I will take the medications. I've got work to do, so you may go ahead and take your leave, Dr. Gillis." "I shall not take up any more of your time, Mr. Jasper. Contact me promptly if you feel unwell in any way." Upon saying that, Sheryl turned and walked to the door. "Xavier, I will attend the charity event on the weekend," Jasper informed in a deep voice. Xavier was overjoyed. "Got it, Mr. Beckett. I will make the necessary arrangements shortly!" Sheryl's eyes briefly lit up before they narrowed. Then, she strutted away. The moment the door was closed, Jasper picked up the pills. With a frosty look on his face, he tossed them into the trash can. "Mr. Beckett, have you come to your senses?" Xavier was so close to bursting into happy tears. He had thought that Jasper had already been blinded by that cunning fox!"It's true that Justin saved me. But that doesn't mean I'd have to accept e

Even though Justin was fully capable of operating his wheelchair, two young and adorable boys still helped with pushing him toward Alyssa. "Mr. Justin, I didn't expect to see you here." Although Alyssa responded politely with a smile, an observant person could tell that her smile was forced. "I didn't think you would attend an event like today's." Justin lifted his elegant and bright face. He chuckled and asked, "Were you disappointed to see me?" Alyssa's heart trembled. She posed an obvious question. "What is there to be disappointed about?" "Logically speaking, Jasper should be the one to attend the charity events. I am not Beckett Group's president. So, in order to avoid having too many speculations going around out there, I won't be attending tonight's charity dinner. I will simply give them my best wishes." With an understanding smile on his face, Justin explained in a tender voice, "Even though you didn't get to meet Jasper here, you will be able to see him when you

Jasper also spotted Alyssa, who was in Justin's presence. A beautiful and harmonious scene like this had also once appeared in his monochromatic memories. He had once watched her play and laugh. As time passed, another man had already taken his place by her side. He had been the one who had initiated the breakup. He said he didn't want her to waste her time on him. He was also the one who had asked her to choose a good man for herself. Nevertheless, when he saw Justin's interest in Alyssa and how happy they were together, an explicable taste of bitterness rose at the back of his throat. Jasper clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his hands bulging. It felt like a bee had stung him on the tongue, the prickling, numbing sensation spreading through his body. Distracted by his own emotions, he barely noticed when a few snowflakes brushed against his sculpted face."Oh no. Watch out, both of you!" Suddenly, a large clump of snow fell from the branches above Jasper's and S

At this very moment, an angel and a devil were locked in a heated debate in Alyssa's mind. "Alyssa, did you see what that jerk did? He's just a fickle-minded asshole who hasn't changed his ways. Just give up on him soonest. Don't stoop so low!" "Lyse, you must not give up on him! Jasper only changed because of his brain injury. It's not that he wants to ignore you. Don't let your mind wander!" "Heck, stop making excuses for this asshole's behavior. Even if he doesn't love Lyse anymore, he still has memories from when they were deeply in love, right? But he's pushing all those memories aside, spending his time with another woman instead. He's heartless!""That's not a valid argument. Are they not allowed to break up just because they once had something? And memories? Memories don't hold any real weight!"Memories didn't carry any weight. It was a frigid day. Alyssa suddenly came to a halt, letting the icy wind whip against her frail body and dry the tears from her eyes. All

Justin gently laid Alyssa down on the back seat of his car.Moments later, Sean came running, out of breath. "Ms. Alyssa, are you alright?" Alyssa forced a smile despite her conflicting emotions. "Don't worry. I'm fine." Justin, not allowing Alyssa to downplay the situation, spoke up matter-of-factly, "She was almost hit by a truck. She fell on the same leg she had injured in the previous car accident. I'm taking her to the hospital to make sure she didn't aggravate the old injury.""How did that happen?" Guilt washed over Sean. "Ms. Alyssa, it was my bad. I failed to protect you!"Alyssa shook her head. "It's not your fault, Sean. Everything happened so fast."Turning to Justin, she said, "Thank you for saving me, Justin, but I don't want to trouble you. My secretary can take me to the hospital."Before Justin could respond, his expression suddenly changed. He grabbed the car door for support as his body swayed.Alyssa and Sean were both staggered. "Mr. Justin!" At that

Although Amber had accompanied Jameson to Mosgravia on several occasions to visit "Sir", she had never actually laid eyes on him. The only time she had caught a fleeting sound of his voice was by chance. It was brief but distinctly captivating, leaving a lasting impression on her."Miss, Miss… You're hurting me," the boy mumbled, lifting his head weakly and drawing Amber's attention back to the moment. Amber realized that she had zoned out. Anxiously, she led the children away from Justin. "It's that woman again." With a condescending expression on Sheryl's face, she continued, "She's really strange. She gets so hostile whenever she sees me." Justin narrowed his eyes slightly as he turned toward where Amber went. "You've met her before?" Sheryl scoffed, "I only happened to see her when Jasper and I got here. Seeing Jasper chatting with a woman he didn't know surprised me. Ha! Could it be that those three pills he took awakened the playboy within him?" "Oh? What did Jaspe

A black Maybach was parked at the back entrance of the orphanage, its lights off and engine idling.Soon, a figure emerged from the back door, hurriedly approaching and entering the car."Sorry for keeping you waiting, Ms. Gillis," the woman apologized respectfully. Sheryl sat in the car with an air of arrogance, and her legs crossed in a relaxed manner. She handed a brown envelope to the woman. "Good work this morning," Sheryl remarked. The woman took the envelope from Sheryl and had a feel of its thickness. She smiled from ear to ear. "All that needed to be done was to cut a brake cable. It was no trouble at all." Sheryl couldn't be bothered to even glance at the woman she deemed inferior. Her expression remained cold as she spoke. "By the way, have you looked into all the volunteers and the teachers at the orphanage like I asked?""I have," the woman replied confidently. "I've been here for about a decade. It was a breeze." She pulled out a stack of documents from her bag

Jonah's gaze burned with a mix of longing, sorrow, and something deeply affectionate. The world swam back into focus as Julien looked at Jonah. Without preamble, he asked, "Are you new? How much do you charge per night?"Light-headed and grinning, Julien reached out a hand, his fingers brushing softly against Jonah's cheek. "You're pretty good-looking," he said, his voice slurred. Then his expression shifted. "Why do you… look so much like someone I hate with every fiber of my being?"Jonah's heart clenched. Even so, he slid his arms around Julien's waist. Trembling, he pulled Julien into his arms. "I'm new here. Could you help me meet my target tonight, Mr. Lovelace?"Julien's eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Jonah. Jonah's eyes teared up as he held Julien's waist tightly. "I promise you won't be disappointed," he said, his voice deep. Watching from the shadows below the stage, Evan nearly gagged at Jonah's sultry tone. Was this really the Judas he knew? The man sounded downri

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. "My dear uncle has taken a huge risk just to target me. He sent his men to attack you in Solana City. What a delightful surprise.

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
