The auction ended on a high note with this turn of events. Not only had MINT broken the record for raising the most charity funds in a single night, but the reporters were covering every detail as if it were the birthdays of all the A-list celebrities in the world combined. When Javier heard the news, he instantly sent his secretary and lawyer to escort Sophia and Betty home. They were huddled together, still frightened by what had happened."I represent the Beckett Group as their legal advisor. If you do not have solid proof of your accusations about Ms. Betty stealing confidential information, Ms. Grant, I will see you in court for defamation," the lawyer said boldly.Abigail got scared at the thought of being sued, but she was even more terrified of dying. Currently, the man who held her life in his hands was gazing directly at her, leaving her with no chance to reconsider. She shuddered and promptly retorted, "O-Of course I have proof! Don't assume I'm intimidated by you ar

"Hold on, Ms. Alyssa!"The crowd of reporters swarmed around her, encircling her and bombarding her with microphones and cameras as if she had won some prestigious award. Though they meant no harm, it was still challenging to make her way through the throng. "Ms. Alexa, do you plan to take action against Betty Beckett for stealing your company's confidential information? Do you plan to sue her?""Betty Beckett's actions have led Ms. Ada Kingsley to terminate her contract with you. Will KS World Hotel take it up with the Beckett Group for this incident?""Ms. Ada Kingsley has made it clear that she intends to terminate her contract with Berenike Hotel. Will you resume the contract and work with her once again?"Alyssa had had a long day. She no longer had much strength. In fact, her gastritis was starting to act up again.She winced, tears beading on her forehead as her stomach churned. Yet, she remained calm and composed on the outside."I—"However, before she could finish

Alyssa was in so much pain that she could only roll her eyes internally.How childish and lacking in creativity were these media people? Why, when it came to a man and a woman being together, did their first assumption always jump to them being in a relationship? What about just being friends?"I'm one of Ms. Alyssa's many admirers," Jameson said gently, his eyes locked onto Alyssa as if she were the sole reason for his existence. "And I'm currently courting her."Alyssa's eyes widened in shock as the reporters erupted into gasps and exclamations. Attending this event turned out to be an absolute win for them tonight, as they were bombarded with breaking news one after another. It was enough to guarantee them a three-month commission!Suddenly, someone barged in from the side, yanking Alyssa away from Jameson and swiftly removing her from the scene."Let me go, Jasper!" Alyssa yelped, too weak to struggle. "You—bastard! Thug!"But Jasper ignored her protests. He was entirel

Jasper flinched violently.They used to be husband and wife. Why had it come to this?The blade didn't need to pierce his heart for it to be riddled with pain."Landon was the last person to see this blade's end. He learned his lesson, however." Alyssa tilted her head, a sharp glint in her eyes. "I'm sure someone as intelligent as you wouldn't need me to shove this between your ribs for you to know better, no?""What does he have that I don't?" Jasper asked hoarsely.Alyssa was caught by surprise. "What?""What does Jameson have that I don't?" Jasper asked again, slowly walking closer to her even as the pressure of the blade's tip began increasing. It was as if he didn't care about his own life anymore."Stay away, Jasper!" Alyssa cried, taking meek steps backward, though her blade never left Jasper's chest. "Do you really think I won't hurt you?""Why would you be with him? Is it … Is it all just to get revenge on me?" Jasper's voice trembled, oblivious to the pain cause

All that could be heard in the room was Alyssa's soft breathing as Jameson remained by her side like a silent protector.As she turned in her sleep and a soft whimper escaped her lips, Jameson swallowed hard, feeling a rush of heat surge through his veins.Women had always thrown themselves at him all these years, whether in Cyrris or Kontina, regardless of their social stature. The more they did this, the more boring and disgusting Jameson found them.Only Alyssa could make him feel anything these days.He would do anything in the world to enable her to continue triumphing and carving her path in this city.Jameson slowly raised his hand to touch Alyssa's cheek.Just then, his secretary messaged him."Mr. Jameson, Ms. Alyssa's family are here for her. They're right outside."Jameson took off his glasses and went to open the ward door. Jonah, Silas, and Sean stood outside like rigid guards, ready to pounce on anyone who dared antagonize Alyssa.Jameson instantly explained, "Ly

When Alyssa woke up the next day, she was stunned to find herself at home in Belbanks."Did I teleport in my sleep?" She cried, pinching her own face.She felt the pinch. She wasn't dreaming. She really was home!"If you can teleport, then I'm psychic," Colene teased, walking into the room with Mandy. They were thrilled to see Alyssa well and awake. "How's your stomach now, dear?"Mandy sat down beside her bed, cupping her cheek. "You've lost weight! Have you been overworking yourself?"Colene cried, eyes red with unshed tears, "You should just stay home and never set foot in that godawful city, Lyse! "Why throw yourself to the sharks like this when you can enjoy all the finest things in the world? We're all at your beck and call here! "Heck, if you want to try alligator meat, I'd skin my Bobo and make sashimi of him for you!"Alyssa giggled. "I'm no picky eater, Colene, but raw reptile is a bit out of my league.""You know how Colene can be when she's trying to express her

"I'm perfectly fine, Lyla," Alyssa said as she hugged her third stepmother affectionately."Well, alright then. I'll prepare some snacks for you two." Lyla then left the study, but not before making a bullhorn gesture with her hands to show Alyssa that Winston was currently furious. Alyssa responded with a reassuring "okay" sign and a playful wink.Neil also left the study, giving them some privacy."I heard everything you said to Lyla earlier, Dad." Alyssa sat down beside her father, hand wrapping around his shoulders. She continued, "You're underestimating me. I wouldn't be charging my way through the city if I didn't have the guts or ability for it. Most players there are like fledglings compared to someone as resilient as a phoenix, like me.""Even so, I hate to see those featherless pigeons pecking at you so relentlessly." Winston shook his head and added, "Why did you have to get on their bad side? I've been so worried about you all this while. I'm old, Alyssa. I shou

Betty once again grew viral on social media, dragging Beckett Group's stocks down with her as well. The online comments and attacks on her after the auction hadn't stopped since. Ada publicly denouncing her contract with Beckett Group didn't help either."Some people can try all they want, but they'll never be able to stand out against someone like Alyssa Taylor. Ms. Alyssa is gorgeous and talented. She even manages her family's hotel! "Unlike some people who only know to scheme and plot in the shadows like some cowardly snake. They really embarrass all of us by lying to Ada Kingsley like that!""Don't compare that Beckett girl with our lovely Ms. Alexa! They're from entirely different worlds!""I'm not surprised to hear what Betty did, honestly. Like mother, like daughter, as they say.""Are there any good apples in the Beckett family at this point? The police should really look into them and see if they're up to anything shady."Jasper scheduled an emergency board meeting on

Frightened out of his wits, Xavier yelped, covering his head and crouching low in his seat. It wasn't that he was a coward. He had been brave in the past, but this situation was unlike anything an ordinary person would face.Working for Jasper meant Xavier didn't have to worry about his livelihood, but every day was a gamble with danger. If this continued, he might have to keep Nitroglycerin on hand just to survive.Jasper, with his strong, muscular frame, shielded Sebastian beneath him.He knew the attackers were after Sebastian, the witness, aiming to eliminate anyone who could tip the scales against them. If they could take down Jasper too, or at least injure him severely, it would be a bonus.These people were ruthless. Sebastian, oblivious to the danger, was muttering the Lord's Prayer under his breath. He didn't know that the man protecting him was sometimes more powerful than any deity."Don't lift your heads! Arrows aren't like bullets—they can pierce glass but not the

Time was ticking. The press conference was about to begin. Landon escorted Sebastian out of the manor and into Jasper's car. He glanced at Jasper, who sat in the back seat, his expression calm and composed.With concern etched on his face, Landon said, "Jasper, let me come with you. I can't feel at ease otherwise."Jasper met Landon's gaze, firm and aloof. "Don't worry, Landon. You've done enough. It's time for you to step back."If Landon continued to help, he would only get caught up in the chaos. Despite his current difficulty in articulating his feelings, Jasper couldn't forget that this was his best friend, the one he'd stood by for more than 20 years. Landon had endured so much to finally be happy with Lauren, and Jasper wasn't about to be the one to disrupt that hard-earned happiness. Understanding Jasper's stubbornness, Landon turned to Xavier. "Call me immediately if anything happens.""Don't worry, Mr. Harper," Xavier reassured. With that, Sebastian climbed into

That said, this strategy came with its own risks. It was as if Jasper and Axel were placing all their bets on Remy for the time being."Justin doesn't control someone without a reason. Since he has control over Remy, he will make full use of him."Jasper's chest tightened, a weight pressing down on him like a massive rock. He continued, "The only way to find Amber is to understand Justin's intentions clearly."…The press conference was scheduled for 5:00 pm at Berenike Hotel's Conference Hall A on Saturday. At 3:00 pm sharp, Justin sat in the president's office at Beckett Group, his expression frigid. He sat upright on the couch while Sheryl, standing beside him, carefully tended to the wound on his left ear, changing its dressing with caution. It had been only two days since he was shot in the ear. His flesh had been stitched up, and the stitches looked like a grotesque centipede crawling along his ear. There was no way to conceal the injury unless he donned a shoulder-lengt

"Remy beat Sheryl up?" Jasper repeated, his voice laced with disbelief. Having wiped away his tears, Axel leaned in to listen to the phone call."Yeah! I saw it with my own eyes in the surveillance footage. He punched her—brutally!" Xavier's voice was filled with astonishment. He exhaled sharply before continuing, "I thought they were a close-knit group. Looks like even they have internal conflicts!"After a brief pause, he ventured, "Mr. Beckett, do you think we could use this as a breakthrough? Maybe Remy has been at odds with Sheryl for a while, and he's tired of working under Justin. Perhaps all he needs is a little push to turn against them. After all, didn't Ms. Altman join us because she hated everything Jameson did?"Jasper didn't give a direct answer. Instead, he spoke quietly, "It's a clever thought, but it's still uncertain. We don't really know Remy's intentions. Our interactions with him have been few, and they've always been risky confrontations. I don't know what he

"Didn't you say you had no idea what I was talking about? In that case, this ear is useless to you. You're already a crippled man anyway. You might as well be deaf too." Axel's hands trembled with restrained rage. The temptation to end Justin's life surged through him—he wanted to pull the trigger, to rip him apart limb by limb. But he had made a promise to Jasper—no lives would be taken. A promise was a promise."I will rescue my wife. But you'll lose more than just an ear if I fail." Axel seized Justin by the hair, his reddened eyes brimming with tears. His voice cracked with fury and anguish. "I will make you suffer a thousand times the pain Amber has endured."Without warning, he released Justin and stormed out."S-Sir! I will get someone to take you to the hospital right away!" Sheryl crawled to Justin's side, panic-stricken as her eyes fell on the pool of blood spreading across the floor. Her trembling hands fumbled with her phone, unable to keep a firm grip as she scrambl

"Sir!" Sheryl shouted. She was just about to get to Justin's side when two shots were fired near her feet. Screaming, she dropped to her knees, threw her arms over her head, and scurried under the table like a terrified animal.The air in the room grew heavy with menace.Justin, known as the devil of the night, was a man who thrived on chaos. His power and influence stretched across continents, and he'd faced countless threats without flinching.But as his visitor approached, an unfamiliar dread coiled in his chest. His hands gripped the couch's armrests so tightly that his knuckles turned white. The terror was suffocating."Get out, all of you," the man commanded, his voice cold and sharp.The man remained fixated solely on Justin while Justin's guests fled in terror. "Help! Somebody!" Sheryl screamed, her voice muffled as she cowered under the table.No help would come. Outside, the others were either unconscious or dead.A deafening bang shattered the silence. The man fir

"I will take it if my condition flares up," Remy said, his voice devoid of emotion as he stared blankly at the bottle in his hand. With a feigned smile, Sheryl replied, "Sir instructed me to ensure you took the pill."A chill ran down Remy's spine. Knitting his brows together, he questioned, "But why?" "This is Sir's order. Why are you questioning it?" Sheryl's smirk turned cold and mocking. "What, are you afraid Sir has ill intentions toward you? Have you lost your trust in him?"Remy held his breath. "No, that's not it." "Remy, swore before Sir to serve him loyally for the rest of your life. You pledged to give him your very being. You haven't forgotten that, have you?" Tilting her chin slightly upward, Sheryl shot him a frosty sidelong glance. "Even if Sir fed you poison, shouldn't you take it without hesitation? Why are you hesitating? Don't disappoint Sir."The suffocating pressure in Remy's chest intensified. It felt as though someone had a rifle trained on him, forcin

Hell on Earth? This place resembled a decrepit hospital. But why had Sheryl described it as "hell on Earth"?Amber's body convulsed uncontrollably, her consciousness flickering between clarity and haze. Fragments of memory surfaced—a dim recollection of drinking with Carl in the cellar after The Millennium's closure. She'd despised working with Carl but had cozied up to him for the sake of extracting information.Carl had revealed that "Sir" was deeply entrenched in the pharmaceutical industry. With connections to Mosgravia's government officials and elite circles, "Sir" wielded considerable power and ran a thriving business. Since his business revolved around pharmaceuticals, clinical trials were inevitable. To facilitate this, Sir owned a private hospital in Mosgravia.That hospital, however, was merely a façade. Beneath its sterile exterior, three basement levels housed patients—unwilling subjects for experimental drugs.Amber shivered. This place bore an uncanny resemblance t

"Amber will be fine," Jasper said confidently. "Based on Justin's way of doing things, he won't harm her for now. She's still useful t o him. He'll exploit her to control you and Alyssa, and to keep me from taking him down."Gripping Jasper's arm, Axel pleaded, "Jasper, I have to save my wife… What should I do?" His eyes were red, brimming with unshed tears.Steadying his breath, Jasper replied, "Even if it comes to killing Justin, it shouldn't be your hands that get dirty. I'll do it.""Are you kidding me? If we're taking that bastard down, we do it together!" Axel's expression was fierce and unyielding. "We went through the same military academy. We have to fight side by side!""Justin is my older brother. It's my family's matter to handle. And don't think I'm doing this for your sake—I have my own reasons."After a moment of silence, Jasper's voice softened. "I came to see you today for another reason. When you get home, don't blame Lyse. She's been torturing herself with g
