After Jasper left, Alyssa helped the paralyzed Sean back to her office. She carefully laid his trembling body on the couch, her forehead damp with sweat and her lips pressed together in concentration. She began examining him like a skilled physician."Ms. Alyssa, I'm fine …" Sean managed to move slightly despite being paralyzed. Tears welled up in his eyes as he witnessed Alyssa's genuine concern. "I'm sorry for the trouble.""Don't be ridiculous! You were trying to protect me, but you should avoid acting recklessly in the future," she replied, leaning in to gently massage his legs."I wasn't being reckless." Sean summoned all his strength to sit up on the couch. His eyes sparkled with determination as he swore, "If it ever happens again, I'll still choose to protect you.""Sean Lynch, you shouldn't expose yourself to unknown dangers just because you think you have some chops. "You're no match for Jasper at all! Did you think he wasted four years in military school for nothing?

A day had passed after Betty was subjected to a grueling overnight interrogation by the police. It had been a harsh ordeal for a sheltered young woman like her. Although they provided her with food and drinks, she wasn't allowed to lie down or sleep, which left her with dark circles under her eyes and a disheveled appearance. Her backside ached from sitting for so long.The harsh fluorescent light above her head had nearly dried out her hair, which she had spent a lot of money to maintain. It was truly a torturous experience! "I didn't. Abigail wasn't a corporate spy. I have nothing to do with it. This is all Alyssa's plot to frame me. I'm innocent …" Despite her fatigue and exhaustion, Betty continued to argue and refused to give in.At that moment, the door to the interrogation room opened. A confident and good-looking man in a suit entered with a black suitcase in his hand. The man introduced himself, "Gentlemen, I am Betty Beckett's attorney, Simon Lynch."Simon Lynch …

"You don't have to worry about that," advised Simon. As the top attorney in Solana City, he didn't solely rely on his family's influence and connections in the legal profession to reach the apex of his career. He was capable and employed a cunning and daring approach to achieving his goals. He had to resort to certain means to turn the tables and win the case.…Alyssa insisted on giving Sean some time off despite his pleas. She made it clear through the decision that she wanted him to set his intentions right and think carefully about how he perceived his relationship with her.

Alyssa did not intend to give her a hard time. She might be the famed designer Alexa, but she was also a businesswoman who knew that ego was

Ada chided, "Is this my wedding or yours? Don't you think it's rather rude to butt in while I'm talking business with Ms. Alyssa?" Ada then glared at her manager and added, "I gave her my full trust when I picked her. I'll accept all her suggestions, so I don't need your opinion."…After signing the agreement, Alyssa sent her staff to see Ada's team out. Next, she relayed the new tasks to her team before leaving work.When she stepped out, she immediately spotted Jonah's Rolls Royce waiting by the hotel entrance. The driver courteously opened the car door for her."Jonah! Are you free today? Why did you come to pick me up?" Alyssa wrapped her arms around Jonah's neck."I heard you gave Sean some time off." He caressed her soft hair."Yeah, he's been really tired lately and needed a break.""Is that the only reason?" Jonah squinted, as if he could read her thoughts. "You are at a time when you need extra help at work. Why send him away? Did you fight with him?"She frowned an

After spending three days behind bars, Betty finally regained her freedom. However, despite Simon's request for Javier to keep the news under wraps, Jasper quickly got wind of it."How did Betty get acquitted? Didn't you have someone keeping an eye on Abigail Grant? Did Simon meet with her?" Jasper looked icy as he slammed his fist against the car window."Mr. Beckett, the issue isn't with Abigail. It's Bryan Hanssen!" Xavier's eyes blazed with anger. He explained, "Our intel revealed that Simon Lynch had a secret meeting with Bryan Hanssen as Betty's attorney, all arranged by Javier. He probably spooked Bryan out with some bullshit because that dude immediately took all the blame for Betty.""What else could Simon have done? He must have threatened to harm Bryan's family! How could an attorney pull such a dirty trick? How could an attorney resort to such dirty tactics?" Jasper's eyes darkened like the calm before the storm, his fists trembling. He lamented, "The good name of Ju

Meanwhile, Sophia fanned the fires, chiming in to demonize Alyssa, "She concealed her identity as Winston Taylor's daughter and stuck around to gain your trust. She even married Jasper."Think about it, didn't that seem like a calculated move? Thank goodness Jasper didn't fall for her charms and divorced her to cut the losses. "If she had won his heart and your affection, you might have had reason to worry that she'd gradually take control of the Beckett Group!""Stop it. Alice isn't what you make her sound," replied Newton with a wave of his hand. He looked glum. "I know Winston. He might be a player, but he's a loyal, honorable man. I don't believe he'd raise a corrupt daughter," stated Newton. "Dad!""Grandpa!""Besides, the Taylors are on par with us when it comes to influence and wealth. Why would she give up her happiness and marry Jasper for some cheap Beckett Group stocks?"Ms. Gardner might resort to something like that, but not Ms. Alyssa. She's a proud woman and w

With that, Jasper walked away in huge strides, leaving Simon frozen on the ground in humiliation.He was born into a family of attorneys. His parents had high hopes for him from childhood, and he was the role model of his siblings. He sailed through life and was considered one of the elite attorneys in Solana City. Even the scions in Solana City had to humble themselves to seek his services. He had never felt so humiliated after the exchange with Jasper.Simon thought of something.Brows furrowed, Simon turned around to glance at Jasper's proud figure. He wondered about the relationship between Jasper and Alyssa. Why would the unfeeling, ascetic Jasper Beckett fly into temper for Alyssa?Simon himself was an acquaintance of Alyssa. He knew her as a beauty and the beloved daughter of Winston Taylor. She had higher standards and better taste than most people. She wouldn't be interested in just any ordinary man.There seemed to be only one possible explanation—Jasper Beckett, t

Anyone could tell that Newton was being sarcastic. He was doubting Simon's integrity.Jasper couldn't hold back a grin while Javier and Sophia put on sour faces."Sir!" Ben hurried over and announced courteously, "Ms. Alyssa is here!"Jasper's heart sank, and his eyes faltered. Everyone shot complicated glances at the door.Alyssa's high heels clicked sharply, echoing in Jasper's heart. She walked alone into the compound, her confident and regal air making it seem like her first visit despite her three years of living there.Jasper fell into a daze, feeling as though they were still married."Grandpa, I'm here!" Beaming, she approached Newton with bright eyes. She did not pause for a second as she brushed past Jasper, treating him like a stranger.He felt suffocated as his fingers curled into a fist. His heart skipped a beat and sank. After the divorce, every time he crossed paths with her was like torture."Alyssa …" Betty glowered at Alyssa, ready to lash out, only to be rein

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
