Jameson struggled to maintain his composure, his body trembling with anger as he cried out in agony, "I've told you countless times that it was Josh, David, and Daisy—the very children you treat with such trust and love—who framed my mother! "Instead of seeking the truth and listening to her, you dismissed her and sent her to that wretched place. Marrying you was the worst thing that ever happened to her!""I've been generous enough to let her keep her title after the way she was caught red-handed. What more can she possibly say?" Victor's face flushed with anger as he recalled the painful past, driving him to a point where he felt like choking both Lily and Jameson."You damn fool," Jameson muttered under his breath, turning away in frustration. He had no intention of bringing up the infidelity, as it only served as a painful reminder of Lily's past. Every time he mentioned it, it reopened old wounds. It was purely coincidental that Victor had mentioned it in their heated argu

So what if he woke up everyone else? All that mattered was that his woman was pleased."What the … what the hell is wrong with you, Jasper Beckett?" Alyssa cried, unable to take it anymore. "Are you going to jump off a cliff just because I tell you to?""I don't want to do that. I would die and wouldn't be able to see you anymore." Jasper slowly turned Alyssa around so she was facing him.When their eyes met, Alyssa could see the gushing, naked passion in his gaze. It was so intense, as if he was worried she would be oblivious to it. His eyes conveyed too much!"Jasper … " Alyssa murmured, but before she could finish speaking, Jasper had handed her his neck tie."Lead me home, Lyse."Alyssa stared fixedly at the tie, suddenly feeling so overwhelmed. It looked like Jasper needed a bigger dose.He swallowed nervously, gently leaning into Alyssa as he eyed her lips. Their hearts pounded in their chests as their visions blurred. All of a sudden, Alyssa's phone rang.As if s

Jasper was taken aback, his arms still in midair. He had wanted to comfort Alyssa with a hug."I only wanted to … ""I said, stay out of this!" Alyssa had no patience to deal with him further. She stormed away from him, still on her phone, and slammed the door as she walked out.The warmth and tenderness Jasper had so achingly wished for disappeared just like that. Their shared moment from earlier burst, just like a short-lived bubble floating up into the sky.Alyssa didn't take the antique Jasper had given her. To her, family was the most important thing right now.Sadness filled Jasper's chest, making his heart twinge in pain.But now wasn't the time to be depressed. He quickly recovered and left the room."Mr. Beckett, I just saw Madam leave looking absolutely pissed. Did you upset her?" Xavier asked worriedly, a sliver of blame in his eyes. After all, his boss had always been known to get on Alyssa's wrong side."Something's happened to Madam Lyla," Jasper said, his gaze da

"Where are you going, Mr. Beckett?" Xavier asked hurriedly.Jasper paused in his footsteps to answer. "To Lyse's side while she helps her family."It didn't matter if she didn't love or cherish him. All that mattered to Jasper was being able to hold her in his heart and fill his life with her.…After the incident from decades ago was released, with help from whoever leaked it online, terrible rumors and gossip about Lyla bubbled and overflowed uncontrollably yet again.The journalists swarmed KS World hotel like a plague of locusts. Even the forums and netizens had a change of topic."Do we really not need to pay to see this shit? Who had known an A-list actress could ever have such a demeaning side to her?""People bid farewell onstage with tears. Why is she doing it with piss?""All of you youngsters weren't born yet when this happened, but I was there. Lyla Nelson pissed herself as a side effect of getting addicted to drugs! She quit the acting industry because of it!""Re

"You're bleeding, Lyse!" Silas cried, seeing how bloody Alyssa's hand was. "Call an ambulance, Cyrus! Hurry!""Tsk. Is this all it takes for you to panic?" Alyssa scowled, grabbing Silas' tie and unraveling it before wrapping it around her injured hand."Cool!" Cyrus gasped at Alyssa's swift action."Calm down, Lyse," Jonah said, heart aching at the sight of his sister's injuries. He gently held her wounded hand, grumbling, "You can't hurt yourself, no matter how upset you get, silly. "Your family is right here with you. As long as we stick together, there's nothing we can't handle, right?""You guys stay here to deal with the reporters and find out who is behind this. I'll make sure Taty and Lyla reach home safe and sound!" With that, Alyssa turned and left."Lyse, your hand—" Cyrus cried, but Alyssa was already gone."Tsk … too hot headed. Even more so than me." Silas shook his head."There's no use stopping her, guys. She has the skills, brains, and has been a doctor be

More snickering erupted from the journalists. Their cruel, merciless teasing and mockery consumed Lyla like a pitch black wave of pain."Don't worry, Mom. I'll protect you!" Tatiana kept her mother away from the sly gazes of the reporters, glaring at every one of them. Who would ever guess such a shy and demure girl would be so fearless and strong right now? "No one will hurt you … no one!""I'm … I'm okay, Taty … I'm … " Lyla murmured weakly, her gaze distant and lost.Seeing this, tears fell down Tatiana's eyes and onto her mother's hair."What did you just say?" Colene fumed angrily, pointing a finger at the reporter who hadjust spoken. She was this close to hitting him!"Why so angry, Madam Colene? It's not like this has anything to do with you," another reporter said sarcastically.Mandy's gaze darkened. Her guess was right. These reporters had clearly been sent here to aggravate them."Why can't I be angry? Lyla is my family, so when you insult her, you're insulting me

"That's only a start. I'm suing you for your despicable behavior, you jackass." There wasn’t an ounce of fear on Alyssa's face as she said coldly, "My grounds are that you humiliated and defamed my family with a story you made up without knowing the truth of the matter, and thus insulted her character and reputation. "Don't think you can spew out whatever trash you want just because you're a reporter. You really think you can live without seeing the consequences of your actions just because the poor people whom you humiliated didn't want to take you to court?"Heh. I'm here to do them justice and show you and everyone else who means ill toward us just what happens to those who distort the truth and slander the innocent!"The reporters were stunned by Alyssa's fierce bearing. She was the one who had initiated the first physical attack, yet her speech and demeanor was so bold …It felt like there was no way they could hate her for her actions."Me? Distort the truth?" The reporte

Jasper had used his own body to protect her. His breathing was slow and irregular. "Are you … okay, Lyse?""What is wrong with you? I should be asking you that question!" Alyssa cried. A stinging pain pricked the back of her nose and forced tears into her eyes.Pain flared from the back of Jasper's head. His vision began to blur, though he still sported a fond smile. "You care about me, that's all that … "Everything suddenly went black.Alyssa's heart stopped instantaneously. She clung onto Jasper's body as it collapsed, crying out, "Jasper!"…The man who tried attacking Lyla was swiftly subdued and taken under Cyrus' hold. As he was being shoved into the police car, Alyssa suddenly lunged at him, ready to strike.Cyrus held her back just in time, consoling her, "Leave him to me, Lyse! I'll deal with him for you. Don't dirty your hands with a goon like him!""I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill him, even if it's the last thing I do!" Alyssa yelled hysterically, str

Alyssa followed Jasper into the study. The door closed behind her with a soft click. She didn't move to switch on the lights or sit down. Instead, she stood quietly in the dim room.They faced each other, eyes locked. In the darkness, their gazes seemed brighter, charged with emotions that neither could put into words. Whatever stirred within them was tangled and silent—kept at bay by something unspoken, as if a wall had formed between heart and mouth. After a pause, Alyssa offered a faint smile. Her voice was soft, almost courteous. "Go ahead, Mr. Beckett. I won't be staying long tonight—I've made other arrangements."It was clear she didn't want to be alone in a room with him.Jasper's chest tightened, overwhelmed by a surge of emotion he couldn't define. His voice was rough when he finally spoke. "You didn't vote against the motion at today's board meeting. I wanted to know… are we still on the same side?"Alyssa's gaze lowered, her voice steady and calm. "You didn't object

In the evening, Xavier drove Jasper to meet with Newton. Along the way, news broke out that Sheryl had been bailed out. Xavier slammed his fist against the steering wheel. "Damn it! Why is it so hard to get rid of that woman?" "She is Justin's right hand," Jasper said, eyes shut as he leaned back in his seat. His jaw tightened. "You could even say she knows more about his secrets than anyone. As long as she's useful, Justin won't discard her so easily. This is how he operates."Xavier shook his head, teeth gritted. "Where the hell did she even come from? When you had me investigate her, I found nothing. Her background was spotless. "What's in her past that Justin would go so far to keep it hidden? A man like him can have any woman he wants, yet he clings to her—some pretty-faced idiot who only seems to make things harder for him."Jasper's gaze turned glacial. Xavier's casual remark struck him.He was right. Justin wasn't short on capable subordinates. So why Sheryl?Was Sh

This time, the injection did not bring the excruciating pain that once made Amber wish for death. Her chapped lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face as she gazed deeply into Remy's eyes. He, too, looked at her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Between them, no words were needed."Damien… Thank you…" Though her voice was barely audible, the weight of her words sank deep into Remy's heart. For once, he did not object to being called Damien.The truth was, ever since Amber had been taken, an unbearable pressure had settled over him, making each breath feel like a punishment—every day since had been plagued by self-reproach and regret.If he hadn't stopped her that night and let her go sooner, could she have avoided Sheryl? Could she have been spared the torture and humiliation?"You should know that those who enter this place never leave. Most don't even make it out alive."Remy's gaze was unwavering. Taking advantage of the surveillance blind spot, he placed his

"Mr. Lexington," the doctor greeted respectfully, lowering his head slightly. Everyone at the base knew who Sheryl and Remy were. They were the ones in charge, the decision-makers. So, everyone obeyed their orders without question. To the staff unaware of the facility's true purpose, Sheryl and Remy stood at the pinnacle of the hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, someone more powerful lurked in the shadows."How has she been these past few days?" Remy asked, his expression unreadable."She's had some adverse reactions, but there are no signs of organ failure yet. Honestly, I'm surprised. She looks frail, but her body is incredibly resilient—stronger than some men, even."The doctor scoffed. "But I'm not sure if she'll make it past her fourth injection today. Last month, four test subjects didn't survive beyond that point. Their bodies have already been sent to the incinerator." Remy's jaw tensed. His voice was husky as he said, "As I've instructed, this woman must be kept alive.

Xavier seethed as he took in the insincere smile on Justin's face. Deep down, he was cursing him with every profanity imaginable. "Whatever makes you happy."Ignoring Justin's dark gaze, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead as he strode past him.Out of nowhere, Justin chuckled and asked, "Did you really think you had people on your side during the board meeting?"Jasper halted, his eyes narrowing. "Grandpa tried his best to shield you, but his health is failing by the day. How much longer do you think an old man can protect you?"Lowering his gaze, Justin idly adjusted the ruby cufflinks on his sleeves. His voice was casual yet cutting. "And Lyse—after how ruthlessly you discarded her, do you still believe she'll stand by you no matter what? That she'll fight alongside you like before?"The intense midday sun accentuated the sharp, aloof, and pallid features of Jasper's face as he stood, unyielding, in its glare. His pulse quickened. Finally, he answered, his voice a low rasp. "R

As the board meeting concluded, the crowd gradually dispersed.News of Justin securing his position as president and Alyssa joining the board quickly spread through Beckett Group.After the meeting, Alyssa escorted Newton back to Crescent Bay while Jasper remained at the corporation to handle some matters.With Xavier accompanying him, Jasper strode toward the chairman's office, his expression cold and unreadable.Nearby, a few employees huddled together, whispering."Psst! Do you think Alyssa joining the board means she's teaming up with Jasper to take down our new president?""People have been saying they broke up since they haven't been seen together for a while," another speculated."But at the press conference, Alyssa openly condemned Mr. Justin. That looked like she was siding with Jasper. So, are they still together or not?""Come on, to people like them, personal feelings don't matter—only their own interests do. Even if they broke up, they can still work together if it

When Jonah reached the bedside, he leaned in slowly, giving Julien an unobstructed view of his tanned skin, well-defined abs, and that devastatingly captivating face. Reclining against the headboard, Julien found himself lost in Jonah's eyes. His breath hitched, and his mind momentarily blanked as Jonah's mesmerizing gaze locked onto him. What could he do? His heart still betrayed him, a frantic drumbeat against his ribs. He was a fool—a pathetic fool. Jonah braced his arms on either side of Julien's head, his dark eyes overflowing with a raw, possessive affection. It was as if he sought to consume Julien—just as he had last night."Julien, does it still hurt—" "Fuck you!" Julien's bloodshot eyes blazed as he swung his hand, landing a sharp slap across Jonah's face. The illusion of his frailty shattered. A crimson handprint bloomed on Jonah's cheek in a split second, the flesh puffing up visibly. But the sting barely registered. Not when the ache in Jonah's chest was alr

Justin frowned as a hint of surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He had assumed Newton's unannounced appearance at the board meeting—along with Alyssa's involvement—was a coordinated effort with Jasper to overthrow him as president. After mentally running through hundreds of countermeasures, the one possibility he hadn't considered was that everything would proceed smoothly in his favor. Javier was equally stunned, though this outcome aligned with his desires. Today, Justin wasn't merely his son but a constant shadow looming over him, a silent predator watching his every move and reminding him that his past actions weren't completely buried. Instead, this secret loomed like a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment, obliterating everything he'd built. And the person holding the detonator was Justin—his eldest son whom he had trusted above all others. With a dim gaze, Javier watched Justin rise to his feet amid the applause. Suddenly, Justin's voice seemed distant,

Justin curled his lips into a smirk, scoffing in silence. Newton had gone to great lengths to bring Alyssa into Beckett Group. This was his way of decentralizing power and keeping it in check, and he wanted to prevent Justin from having complete control. Unlike others, Javier couldn't hold himself back. He blew his top instantly, his face turning red like a tomato. "Dad, have you lost your mind? Don't you know who she is? She is KS Group's president—our direct competitor!"KS Group is also bidding for Project A5. No matter how much you favor her, you should at least recognize the limits. If you promote her, it's a blatant conflict of interest—outright cronyism!" Newton sneered. "I might understand your concern if I were promoting someone other than Alyssa."His gaze hardened. "Cronyism? A conflict of interest? I wonder who you're really talking about."With those words, he cast a knowing, enigmatic glance at Justin's blank expression. Just then, a board member from Javier's
