Sophia leisurely filed her red nails on the couch as she made the remark.Amid Betty's outburst, she somehow felt that Sophia had been acting funny. Usually, Sophia would have jumped in and defended Betty when the latter was humiliated at home. After all, Betty was Sophia's favorite daughter. Besides, Sophia would not tolerate anyone stepping all over her at the Becketts' residence.However, Sophia's indifference was worrying. Betty wondered why Sophia had never intervened, especially when Sophia had clearly heard the commotion downstairs.Sophia nagged at her, "Betty, I do not wish to see this happening again at home. Remember, Lauren is my daughter too. How could you hit her as her elder sister? If your dad and grandpa hear about this, they'll fault me for raising you poorly."You're 25 this year, but why do you carry yourself like a manic depressive? You keep saying Lauren is abnormal, but you're not better than her!"Betty rushed up to Sophia, glowering as she asked, "Mom, I

Landon escorted Lauren into the car, with Angelina at the wheel as they departed from Seaview Manor's grounds. Inside the vehicle, he tenderly embraced Lauren and ran his fingers through her hair, his heart heavy with pain. He had dropped by Seaview Manor to invite Jasper for drinks. He'd never expected to run into the fiasco.He replayed the memories of Nina's indignant speech and Lauren's wounds on her arms with resentment. A searing pain surged through his body, unlike anything he had ever experienced. Although he had endured heartbreak after Alyssa's rejection, this anguish far surpassed any previous pain. Inhaling sharply, he rested his jaw on Lauren's head and shut his eyes. He vowed that he would keep his word to protect Lauren."Mr. Harper, where should we go next?" Angelina whispered, looking at him through the rearview mirror.Landon was caught off-guard by the question. He had told Betty he'd bring Lauren with him, but he couldn't host Lauren at his place. He'd be i

Alyssa was the first to break the silence. With a furrowed brow, she addressed Jasper, "What are you staring at? Don't you realize you're badly injured? Take off your clothes right now!""In front of everyone?" Jasper questioned hesitantly.She scolded him impatiently, "Goodness, are you feeling shy? They're all men, and your body looks the same as theirs."Xavier shuddered at the speed of Alyssa's speech. She had been gentle and obedient to Jasper in the past, but she had changed into a fiery woman.Jasper lifted his pale face and cast her a tender glance. Smiling wryly, he explained, "No, that's not what I meant. I just thought gathering everyone here for my treatment was unnecessary. I only need you."She glared at him and balled her fists. Jasper was one of the most thick-skinned guys she met.Newton, always observant, cleared his throat and urged the others, "Jasper's right. We can't be of much help here. Only Dr. Callaghan and Alice should stay, as she has experience in med

Jasper's gaze took on an unexpected, intense warmth shadowed by darkness.There was something oddly familiar about how Alyssa was tending to him right now. She took out some antiseptic cream and the medicine Omar Callaghan had given him and began cleaning out his injuries."Lyse," Jasper murmured.Alyssa said nothing, though the sudden increase in pressure in her application seemed to serve as a warning.Jasper winced at the pain but remained adamant. "You remind me of someone, Lyse. Someone I met a long time ago."Alyssa was focused on tending to his wounds and merely responded with, "Who?""I don't know either.""What do you mean you don't know?""I mean, I really don't know who they were," Jasper said as he recalled those memories from years ago—that person's lithe but strong figure appearing in mind. "I was still in the Peacekeeping Forces when I met her on the battlefield."Alyssa's hold on the cotton she was using faltered. Her heart fell into her stomach, pounding heavi

Alyssa's heart thudded in her chest, nearly coming to a stop as she was left stunned.She'd thought she was the only one who kept that memory from the battlefield so sacred. Who knew Jasper treated it with just as much importance, even trying his best to track her down all these years. If it had been any other woman, he would have easily found her.Unfortunately for Jasper, he didn't know White Dove had been right beside him all this time, even married to him once upon a time under the name of "Alice White".After parting ways with him in Luminara, Alyssa erased all traces of her in that war. She'd used a false identity to help as a medic in that war to avoid her father's fury. So how could Jasper have uncovered her true identity when she'd been so careful to leave no clue behind?"Are you okay? Was I too harsh, Lyse?" Jasper asked worriedly. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get upset at you. I just wanted to make my stand clear. White Dove saved my life. The only thing I feel for he

Jasper then gently held her hand and kissed the back of her palm.Alyssa blushed furiously, flinching just the slightest in response. Yet she forgot to pull her hand away."I'm sorry, Alyssa. I'm sorry for making you listen to all that. Could you please forgive me this once?" Jasper asked earnestly, gazing into her eyes.Was this still Solana City's revered bachelor, Jasper Beckett? The man whom corporations feared to cross? Or had someone taken over his body?Alyssa cleared her throat lightly, saying nothing else as she watched Jasper kneel before her.A sense of glee welled up in her chest."What is wrong with you tonight?" she asked. "How could you just stand there and let your father beat you up?She wrinkled her nose, poking at his forehead as she snapped, "You're a 30-year-old man. Couldn't you have retaliated even a little bit? Do you two have a father-son relationship or a slave-master one?""Did you worry about me?" Jasper asked, tilting his head."You saved my life a

Ten minutes later, Landon brought Lauren to the ENT department. The doctor quickly did a series of checkups on Lauren while Landon and Angeline waited anxiously to the side."Will she be okay, doctor?" Landon finally asked."Some external trauma appears to have caused her eardrum to rupture," the doctor replied truthfully. "Most of the cases I encounter result from severe slaps or punches. Some serious cases end up with long-term tinnitus."Landon and Angelica's expressions fell as they feared for Lauren's health."Is full recovery possible, doctor?" Angelica asked worriedly, as if she was Lauren's sister."Yes. The perforation isn't too big, and you sent her here without a moment's delay, so it seems full recovery should … ""Should?" Landon gritted out."It will! Full recovery will occur! All that's needed is surgery and proper care afterward." The doctor quickly corrected himself, frightened by Landon's threatening glare."That had better be the case." Landon held Lauren in

Alyssa had just finished tending to Jasper's wound when Ben walked in. "How are you doing, Mr. Jasper?""Very well, thanks to Alyssa." Jasper shot her a fond look as he spoke.Alyssa instinctively looked away. Jasper used to be so stoic. What was with all this passion and emotion now? "You have our sincere thanks, Ms. Alyssa." Ben bowed, but Alyssa quickly helped him up."You don't need to do this, Ben. It was my duty, after all."Ben wasn't one to be nosy, but he still wanted to see Jasper be together with Alyssa again. "You're still as kind to Mr. Jasper as always.""Please don't misunderstand. I'm only doing this because Jasper is important to Grandpa." Alyssa smiled lightly. "I do what I do only for Grandpa's sake."Ben met her smile. Jasper, on the other hand, grinned warmly at her. He was used to her indignance by now. He just had to read her body language or pay attention to what she said. One of them was bound to tell him the truth."Mr. Jasper, if you're able to wal
