Chapter 353

Author: Ginger Sue
Ada was left stunned. She was rendered speechless by a mixture of gratitude and awe.

For years, she had relentlessly pursued a piece of jewelry from Alexa, but her efforts had always come to naught.

It was no surprise that she now felt an overwhelming sense of joy as Alyssa presented her with this exquisite gift.

"N-no, no, I cannot accept this, Ms. Alyssa. It is far too precious of a gift," Ada politely declined. She had to keep her appearances up, after all.

    Immediately, Eden and Rory pulled out their phones at the same time to check the news. A moment later, their expressions fell in unison. They cried out together, "It's bad news, Mr. Beckett!" "What is it now?" Javier snapped impatiently. With a grim expression, Rory glanced at Justin, studying him intently. Though he wanted to report everything to Javier, Justin's cold, sinister gaze sent a chill down his spine. Under that immense pressure, he suddenly found himself at a loss for words. Unable to wait any longer, Javier snatched the phone from Rory's hands. The next moment, it felt as though a bomb had gone off in his head, leaving it buzzing. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. "What is this? An innocent young woman was stabbed over 20 times and murdered? Someone reported that Justin killed a female helper in our family 20 years ago, and that our entire family covered it up?"They're urging the authorities to investigate this as soon as possible, and they're calling for

    "Justin, what's going on with your Uncle Zachary's death? Why are the police investigating you?" Javier demanded. Dark circles hung beneath his eyes, clear evidence that he hadn't slept at all. Justin crossed his legs nonchalantly, an unperturbed smile spreading across his face. "Dad, I know what you're afraid of. But what's there to fear? No matter how terrifying or perverse Uncle Zachary was, he's already dead." Javier flew into a rage. "Me? Afraid of him? The police are after you because of his death! Cyrus Taylor took you away in front of everyone at yesterday's board meeting. The news has spread across Solana City; it's even trending online!"Beckett Group's share price plunged into the red first thing this morning. Do you even realize how much trouble you've caused the corporation?"Justin merely shrugged. "So what? The contract for Project A5 has already been signed, and the project is underway. Besides, we have government-backed projects supporting us. These fluctuations

    Justin had never been in optimal health to begin with, relying on medication for years just to keep his condition stable. On top of that, he had been detained at the police station for over ten hours. It was nearly one o'clock in the morning by the time he returned to Seaview Manor.Ever since he was a child, he had regarded Javier as a useless father. In fact, deep down, he had never truly seen him as his father at all. Everything about their relationship had merely been a means for Justin to strip Javier of his power and authority and achieve his ultimate goal. Now, utterly exhausted, Justin had no energy to deal with Javier. After arriving home, he headed straight to his room to rest, leaving Eden to handle him. After taking so many lives in recent days, the weight on Justin's heart was overwhelming. Nevertheless, having reached his physical and emotional limits, he fell into a deep sleep the moment his head touched the pillow. He dreamed of watching his mother shoot hersel

    In the interrogation room, Cyrus conducted the questioning himself. He tossed several crime scene photos onto the table in front of Justin. "Take a look. Aside from your Uncle Zachary, do you recognize the other man?"Justin lowered his gaze, his voice calm and steady. "No."A faint smile tugged at Cyrus's lips. "No? This was the man who kidnapped you 20 years ago. He locked you up in a cage and tortured you for days. "I'm sure that left quite an impression. You must have wished to kill him every time you thought about it. How could you possibly forget his face?"A cold glint flashed in Justin's dark eyes, but his tone remained even. "Oh, that's him? But like you said, that was 20 years ago. It's only natural I wouldn't remember something from that long ago, don't you think?"Cyrus narrowed his eyes slightly. "And yet Jasper recognized him at a glance. That man was Gustav Holm, the thug who kidnapped both of you back then. Your brother is five years younger than you, which mean

    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

    "If Grandpa hadn't revealed it in a fit of anger, I wouldn't have known that Grandma was deaf in her left ear."Feeling guilty, Jasper chuckled bitterly. "Isn't it ridiculous? As the grandson of this family, I spent the most time with Grandpa and Grandma, yet I never noticed her abnormality. What kin

    Corey gasped in shock, "Word by word?"Victor barked at him, "Of course! Nonsense!""Uh, Mr. Josh said… marrying that bitch is the dumbest decision you made in your life.""Oh, fuck him!" Victor punched his bed and glowered in resentment. "The dumbest choice I made in life was putting unconditional tru

    Javier stormed in with a stern expression, exuding deep resentment. He was closely followed by Rory."The weather is so good today. Why do you look so gloomy? Don't ruin my day."Clicking his tongue, Newton shifted his gaze away from Javier's solemn face, showing clear annoyance toward him. "Seeing yo

    "I'm sure." Lauren nodded firmly.In an unusual departure from his usual composure, Cyrus fixated on the portrait, his usually steady demeanor giving way to a tense stillness, his eyes tinged with red.Concerned, Lauren approached him, noting the uncharacteristic reaction. "Cyrus, are you alright?"Cyr
