Chapter 2321

작가: Ginger Sue
After lunch, Alyssa and Sean headed straight for Mildred's home.

This area was a well-known slum in Solana City. The poverty, neglect, and chaos were even more desolate under a blanket of snow.

Mildred's family lived in a rundown house with dirty bricks on the rooftop, giving the impression that the entire structure might collapse with the slightest gust of wind.

"This is terrible. How could this be?" Sean shook his head, feeling indignant. "The victim's family lives in such dire conditions

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2580

    The devastating shock and crushing news finally proved too much for Newton's frail body. He collapsed, unable to endure any longer. Alyssa, Jasper, Ben, Javier, and the others gathered anxiously in the corridor outside the hospital's emergency room. Every second stretched endlessly, their hearts suspended in dread. Alyssa stood apart in a corner, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face, her fear and worry laid bare. As Jasper thought of Newton fighting for his life behind those closed doors, his gaze fell on her tear-streaked face. His hands clenched into fists at his sides until his knuckles blanched and the veins on the back of his hands bulged. The pain in his chest was beyond words. Just as he pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and stepped toward Alyssa, the sound of heavy, rhythmic footsteps echoed down the corridor, unnervingly steady. It was Justin. Jasper's eyes darkened. He stopped in his tracks, tightening his grip around the handkerchief. Justin approac

    The moment Newton finished speaking, a heavy silence descended upon the room, pressing down on everyone's hearts. Alyssa was deeply shaken. A surge of emotions rose within her, leaving her reeling for a long moment. Though she had never met Chester, Newton's words painted a vivid picture of him—kind, generous, gentle, and deeply empathetic. In some ways, it almost felt as though Jasper resembled Chester more than Javier ever had. It was a cruel twist of fate that such a good man had died so young, never given the chance to live a full life. Then, a sudden thought struck her. Because of the twisted bond between Chester and Javier, it felt as though fate had played a cruel joke on them all. Jasper, who had remained silent all this while, finally spoke. "Dad, I don't understand you."He lifted his gaze to Javier, his eyes reddened with emotion. His voice trembled as he continued, "You and Uncle Chester grew up together. You lived under the same roof, attended the same school, a

    Alyssa and Jasper exchanged a knowing glance. Though they could feel the sting of the truth, their compassion stopped them from pursuing that line of thought. To them, Javier could hardly be considered a good husband. His performance at work was mediocre, and he lacked exceptional talent. Yet, in the end, he had still raised Jasper and pulled him out of a life steeped in darkness and uncertainty. If not for Javier, Jasper might have perished in the slums as a child. In that case, he would never have met Alyssa—never known her, never married her, never shared such a deep and passionate bond with her. Moreover, Javier had always been a devoted son to Newton. That alone proved he was not entirely devoid of conscience. So how could he have fallen so far as to harm his own brother? That was nothing short of monstrous. Javier's face was as pale as a ghost, sweat pouring down his temples. The suit he had worn for over 24 hours was soaked through with cold perspiration. Frantic, Rory

    Alyssa was reminded of the past the moment she heard Javier had arrived. Knowing he had never been particularly fond of her, she rose to her feet. "Grandpa Newton, I'll step out for a while so you and your family can have some space."Jasper's gaze darkened, his heart skipping a beat. He was about to ask her to stay, but Newton beat him to it. Grabbing Alyssa's slightly cold hands, Newton pulled her back down beside him. "What nonsense are you spouting, Alyssa? You're not an outsider. If anything, you're closer to me than my own son. You're my most beloved granddaughter-in-law!"Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes. "Grandpa Newton…" Newton snorted. "Just be yourself, even in front of Jasper's father. Do as you please. You and I are family. As for him and me…. Hmph, that's another matter entirely."At that, Jasper's lips curved faintly. Moments later, Ben led Javier in, with Rory trailing behind. Javier was usually impeccably dressed, carrying himself with quiet authority. But today

    Upon hearing that, Jasper and Alyssa exchanged a knowing glance, a silent understanding passing between them. Newton caught the look they shared, and his heart swelled with a sweetness richer than honey. He nodded firmly. "I'm prepared. Truth be told… I've been waiting a long time for this day." "Grandpa, public outrage is growing. The authorities will likely bring Justin in for questioning within the next two days." Jasper took Newton's hand in his too, his expression turning resolute. "However, I can't hand over the evidence you gave me just yet. If I do, it may become harder to secure a conviction against Justin in the future. I plan to wait and see how things unfold before making a decision.""I've always trusted your judgment," Newton replied. "But remember to discuss everything with your wife before acting. Don't go at it alone. Alyssa is sharp and perceptive. She'll help you make better decisions and reduce the risks."Newton then took both their hands and placed Jasper'

    If the authorities ever obtained that recording, Javier would be dragged into a full-blown scandal even if no physical evidence remained. His reputation would be destroyed, Beckett Group would descend into chaos, and even Newton would be greatly affected. Beckett Group must never fall into Justin's hands. If he gained complete control, there was no telling how far into darkness he would steer it. "H-How did you get that recording?" Javier's voice trembled, his entire body shaking. Back then, Justin had been what—three? Four? How could he possibly have…"This was the only gift my dearest mother ever left me," Justin replied calmly. "Whether in life or death. She kept the voice recorder locked in a safe, deep within her wardrobe. The passcode is a combination of your birthdate and mine."He gave a soft click of his tongue, shaking his head. There was no grief in his eyes, only cold disdain for Caroline. She had been foolish enough to let a grand, blind love be her undoing. "My

    Landon felt touched. He gazed at Javier, gratitude evident in his eyes. Though he opened his mouth to speak, words eluded him, leaving him in a momentary silence.Jasper, standing nearby, watched with surprise, his expression softening into a relieved smile. "Got it, Mr. Javier. I'll see to it right

    Lauren lay on the hospital bed, her heartbeat steady, and the oxygen mask removed. Despite this, every breath seemed laborious for her, her face drained of color. The delicate flutter of her lashes resembled a butterfly's wings."Lauren, don't be afraid. You're alright now. Grandpa is here. Your dad,

    Axel had lived a dangerous life. He never had time or energy to date properly, let alone orchestrate anything so romantic. The fireworks tonight were beautiful. He thanked Landon for that. However, no matter how bright and long the fireworks were, it would still be dull if he didn't have anyone to w

    Axel clutched Amber's hands as they fled down the luxurious corridor with dangers lurking at every corner. Running with a woman in tow did not affect his efficacy at all. He gunned down each man who ran after them with precision.A man suddenly jumped them from the left before Axel had the time to tu
