Chapter 278

Author: Ginger Sue
Jasper, looking grim, was experiencing an emotional rollercoaster at the moment.

Alyssa did not share the same sentiment. She merely felt unlucky to have run into him.

Bumping into Jasper in the lovely rose garden was akin to stepping on dog shit—a mood killer. She secretly grumbled, thinking that she might need to start reading her fortune of the day before leaving her house.

Liana, clinging tightly to Jasper, was an eyesore to Alyssa.

Jameson leaned closer to Alyssa and chuckled into her

I like the book but my biggest pet peeves are people who do not communicate. How many of their issues would have been solved if they were just honest with each other ugh!

    A commotion erupted in the room the moment Justin was escorted out. "What in the world is going on, Mr. Javier? Why did the police come for Mr. Justin?""Mr. Dutton's death couldn't possibly have anything to do with him, could it?""The president of Beckett Group was taken away in public! If this gets out, it'll seriously damage the company's reputation!"At a critical moment like this, the board members were concerned only with the corporation's interests.That was only natural. After all, those interests were tied directly to their own. "That's enough, everyone. There's no need to panic." Though Javier's thoughts were in turmoil, he forced himself to remain composed. "Just as Chief Taylor said, they only need Justin to assist with the investigation. He's not being treated as a suspect. After all, the deceased was his biological uncle."This meeting is adjourned for now. We'll reconvene at a later date. Please wait for my notice."Even though Justin hadn't been handcuffed an

    That voice was icy, devoid of any emotion. Yet it felt like a blade pressed suddenly against Justin's throat. The person outside the door enunciated every word with deliberate clarity, making sure everyone inside could hear him. All the board members turned to look at Justin at once, their eyes fixed on his cold expression. Javier stared at Justin in shock. Though countless questions swirled in his mind, he didn't dare voice any of them under so many watchful eyes. "Mr. Justin Beckett!" Cyrus raised his voice. "Would you like to come out and meet with me, or do I have to come in and escort you out myself?"His arrogant, mocking tone was a direct provocation.Enemies stood waiting outside, while those inside the room fell into a heavy silence. The tension stretched to its limit. On the surface, everything seemed calm, but beneath it, unease churned like a current beneath frozen water. Some of the board members had already begun whispering among themselves.A sense of impen

    Miley had to return to Kontina the very next day with Jeremy, due to his packed schedule and responsibilities as the country's president. Late that night before their departure, Alyssa and Jasper accompanied them to the hospital to visit Mandy. Alyssa knocked on the ward door. It opened soon after, revealing Remy's handsome yet haggard face. His cheeks had hollowed from the weight he'd lost, making him almost unrecognizable. "How are you, Damien? Are you holding up?" Alyssa asked softly, her heart aching at the sight of him."I'm fine." Remy's gaze shifted slightly, his lashes casting faint shadows beneath his tired eyes. "How's Dad?" "He's doing okay. You don't have to worry." Alyssa forced a bright smile, hiding the sorrow in her heart. "Damien, Miley and Jeremy are here to see you. Miley is the sixth eldest, and Jeremy is her husband." "The sixth eldest…" Remy murmured, a faint glimmer appearing in his eyes. Alyssa stifled a laugh. "She's the sixth eldest to me, but she's

    Jonah's gaze remained calm, devoid of both sorrow and joy. That unsettling stillness sent a chill down Anthony's spine. "Winston is the only father we acknowledge," Jonah said evenly. "The only parent we recognize is the one who raised us. As for blood ties… they mean nothing to us."His three brothers nodded firmly in agreement."Jonah…" Winston's eyes brimmed with tears. "I know that I wronged your mother, and I have no right to stand before you," Anthony said, lowering his gaze. Every word was measured, carrying a faint but unmistakable pressure. "But that doesn't change the fact that my blood runs in your veins. "Right now, the Kontina royal family has no successor. We've fallen into unprecedented turmoil. As king, I cannot stand by and watch our power stripped away and everything collapse. "So, one of you must come back with me and inherit the throne. This is your fate, and none of you can escape it. If you all refuse, the truth will eventually come to light, and it wi

    Everyone 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

    Alyssa looked into Jasper's eyes, which were ablaze with desire. She pressed her moistened lips together.Suddenly, she remembered Sheryl's considerably charming face and the smile she had deliberately shown Jasper. Inexplicably, she felt uncomfortable.She wasn't trying to make a fuss about it. As th

    Jordan was able to get away without a hitch thanks to the other car that stopped the police at the hospital. A black vehicle zoomed through the brightly lit Solana Highway.

    In the nick of time, the world stopped whirling as a warm strength instantly supported his back while another hand grabbed his arm."Be careful."Justin looked up in surprise. His eyes met a clear, sparkling gaze. He felt an unfamiliar rush of emotions like a drop of water plopped into the still lake
