Jasper finally felt relieved upon hearing Alyssa's promise. Grateful and nearly moved to tears, he uttered, "Thank you, Lyse."Even though Alyssa appeared stoic, she was touched by the scene.Shortly after, Javier excused himself to attend an important meeting at the Beckett Group.Ever since Alyssa's identity as Dr. White had been revealed, she had been appointed as Jasper's attending physician and tasked with overseeing his follow-up treatments. After inquiring about Jasper's condition, she placed him in a wheelchair and instructed Landon and Abel to take him for a checkup.After their departure, only Alyssa, Newton, and Ben remained in the room.Since there wasn't anyone around, Newton inquired, "Alice, you seem down. Is there something on your mind?"She snapped back to reality and denied sheepishly, "No, Grandpa. I'm fine."Newton expressed concern as he gently reminded her, "Alice, you can get away with lies from others, but not from me. Are there complications related t

Alyssa noticed the distress and wariness on Newton's face and assumed that she might have breached a sensitive family topic. It would be inappropriate for her to press for an answer.Despite always being sensible, she somehow developed a deep interest in the matter that concerned Jasper. She blurted out boldly, "Grandpa, is there any tension between Jasper and Justin? And is that related to their kidnapping case when they were younger?"Newton looked astonished. Wide-eyed, he gasped, "Y-You knew about the kidnapping?""I'm sorry, Grandpa. I didn't intend to overstep," Alyssa apologized. After a pause, she whispered, "Jasper mentioned Justin to me a while ago. He'd promised to tell me the truth later and that he won't keep anything from me."I was giving him the silent treatment back then. And I had refused to learn the truth. But curiosity got the better of me, so I …" Alyssa's voice faded as she blushed in embarrassment.Newton felt happy at the shy look on Alyssa's face, whi

"Justin was a 15-year-old. And he was taller and stronger than Jasper," Newton explained.However, Justin was still a defenseless teenager at that time. How did he manage to subdue the kidnappers so Jasper could escape?Alyssa, keeping her doubts to herself, wondered, "Grandpa, what happened next? How did Justin escape from the kidnappers?"Newton turned pale and trembled as he answered, "We paid Gustav the two billion dollars in ransom. Half a month later, Justin appeared in front of the Seaview Manor gates, completely naked."When we found him, he was covered in blood and nearly dying from the torture. He spent a month in the hospital and underwent six months of psychiatric treatment before he improved, but his health was forever ruined.""Why?" Alyssa asked in shock.Newton said, "We learned from Justin later that he had infuriated Gustav and the gang after helping Jasper to escape. They couldn't kill him off due to the ransom, so they turned him into a punching bag."They st

Upon hearing Landon's words, Jasper choked on his water in surprise. He let out a muffled cough and retorted, "Landon Harper, are you thinking straight? Lyse can give you a checkup, you know. You shouldn't be wasting Lauren's time."Alyssa crossed her legs on the couch and stared disdainfully at the cheesy Landon. She quipped, "So, you're a chef now after retiring from your playboy days? Well, it's pretty impressive for you to turn over a new leaf.""Ahem. This will be my first time cooking tonight. I'm kind of nervous," Landon confessed. In his 28 years, he had never set foot in the Harper Residence's kitchen, let alone tried his hand at cooking."Landon, don't push yourself too hard," Lauren chimed in with concern while gently tugging at his sleeve.Alyssa cast Landon a look of disdain and agreed, "Right. You shouldn't drag Lauren into the mess you're about to make."Jasper pressed his lips and added, "Remember, if the stove catches fire, the first thing to do is cover it with

Jasper smiled at Alyssa, knowing that she would keep her word. He had made up his mind to support her, no matter what decision she made.He advised her, "I know you want revenge, but you can't rush it. We will eventually find the mastermind."Alyssa's lips tightened, and her eyes filled with emotion. There was another reason behind her vengefulness that she couldn't reveal to Jasper—the attacker and the mastermind behind him had posed a severe threat to Jasper's life. Were it not for her medical intervention, Jasper could have been in grave danger.Alyssa had been bottling up her anger, which led to a loss of appetite and restless nights. She felt the urgency to seek vengeance to find solace."Jasper, I appreciate that you protected Lyla and me, but ultimately, this is a family matter. Please focus on your recovery and stay out of this.""Yes, it might be a Taylor family issue, but Lyse, I'm your man," he croaked. He was as thick-skinned as usual.She glowered at him. He contin

Jasper realized something after falling in love with Alyssa. She was like a coconut—tough on the outside and soft within. She was a sincere and kind-hearted soul.Alyssa's affection for him had dwindled, and he resorted to gaining her sympathy just for a few more moments with her.In the past, Alyssa had to beg for his affection, but now the tables had turned. It was his turn to experience what it felt like to be on the other side.…In the end, Alyssa had no choice but to stay with him. She clarified, "Don't take this the wrong way. I didn't stay because you wanted me to. It's because I promised Grandpa and Lauren to look after you."She gathered herself and rose from the bed, announcing, "I'll rest in the adjoining room. Call me if you need anything."Jasper's gaze deepened, and he held onto her hand. He suggested, "Lyse, why don't you spend the night here?""The couch is uncomfortable to sleep on," she explained, attempting to free her hand from his grasp but failing."Then,

Jasper recalled the many times during their marriage that he was irritated at Alyssa.He felt she took too long in the shower. He found her skincare routine fussy. When she prepared a table full of food for him, he thought she wasted her time in the kitchen.As these mundane memories of their marriage flashed before his eyes, they stung his heart.The bathroom door creaked open. Alyssa appeared, her hair wrapped up in a white towel. She emerged from the condensation bare-faced, looking as lovely as ever.Jasper was captivated by her youthful and radiant face. He gulped and remarked, "You look even better without makeup.""That's enough. You've said the same thing before. Don't repeat yourself." Alyssa shot back, holding the towel on her head as she sat on the couch with a gloomy expression.She added, "Don't force yourself to give compliments if you're not good at it. 'You look better without makeup'? Obviously! I look gorgeous all the time!""Yes, you're absolutely gorgeous," h

The winter wind howled outside. In contrast, Jasper's room was a tranquil and cozy haven.His bed and Alyssa's were next to each other. Despite the distance between the beds, he considered it as sharing a bed with her.Xavier had slyly moved Alyssa's bed closer to Jasper's, and it was too late for her to protest, as Xavier and the other movers had already left. She couldn't move her bed on her own, and Jasper was too feeble to be of any help.She lay on the bed and closed her eyes, her breathing calm. Meanwhile, Jasper was in his own bed, taking in the scent that wafted from her hair. The scent tempted him, and even the mundane ceiling in his room seemed to have transformed into a starlit sky.His palms were drenched, and his fingers shakily inched toward Alyssa.Her voice suddenly rang in the silence. "Behave yourself."His fingers froze in the middle.She threatened, "If you don't, you'll regret it."Jasper sweated profusely and managed a bitter smile.After what felt like

Jonah's gaze burned with a mix of longing, sorrow, and something deeply affectionate. The world swam back into focus as Julien looked at Jonah. Without preamble, he asked, "Are you new? How much do you charge per night?"Light-headed and grinning, Julien reached out a hand, his fingers brushing softly against Jonah's cheek. "You're pretty good-looking," he said, his voice slurred. Then his expression shifted. "Why do you… look so much like someone I hate with every fiber of my being?"Jonah's heart clenched. Even so, he slid his arms around Julien's waist. Trembling, he pulled Julien into his arms. "I'm new here. Could you help me meet my target tonight, Mr. Lovelace?"Julien's eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Jonah. Jonah's eyes teared up as he held Julien's waist tightly. "I promise you won't be disappointed," he said, his voice deep. Watching from the shadows below the stage, Evan nearly gagged at Jonah's sultry tone. Was this really the Judas he knew? The man sounded downri

The bar was alive with striking lights and thundering music, and the air was thick with the scent of tobacco and alcohol. The atmosphere was one of moral decay—corrupt, degrading, and vile. "Where's Julien?" Jonah's voice cut through the noise, his tone icy and sharp. When Jonah stepped inside, the eyes of several men turned toward him, their gazes filled with illicit intent."Why, hello there. Are you here alone? Are you feeling lonely?" A sexy man sauntered over, draping himself over Jonah's shoulders. He let his hands linger with a playful squeeze. "If you're bored, I'd be happy to keep you company." Jonah's expression darkened. His hands trembled, veins bulging with barely contained rage. Suddenly, Evan burst through the crowd, his face twisting in alarm at the sight of Jonah surrounded by a swarm of predatory men. Evan yelled, "Don't touch him!" A heavy thump reverberated through the room. Gasps erupted as people scrambled back.The man who had draped himself over

Rafe stated, "But Beckett Group is in the middle of a storm right now. If I insisted on giving your corporation the project, my superiors would investigate me. I wouldn't be able to escape unscathed!""If you're investigated, I'll make sure you can still live a life of luxury—even if you lose your job." Justin's tone darkened. "But if you turn against me, you won't just suffer a few losses. You'll lose everything."Under the dim moonlight, Justin fiddled with his antique tea cup, his gaze narrowing. "You've worked so hard to get to where you are. Are you prepared to lose it all?"After ending the call, Justin turned to Remy, who stood quietly at the side. "Sheryl is still being detained. She can't be bailed out for another two days. I need someone to watch over the research lab. You'll handle that."Remy was taken aback. "I failed my last mission. Aren't you going to punish me?"Justin's smile was cold and insincere. "It wasn't your fault. You were ambushed. If not for that, I tru

Remy pursed his lips, bending down to pick up the fallen poker card. It was the King of Spades—an entry pass to Kings' Club. "My attacker was…" Remy's pupils constricted as he tightened his grip on the card. "It can only be that dear uncle of mine, always claiming to see me as his own son." Justin's lips curled into a sinister smile. "He's trying to get rid of my right-hand man, taking advantage of my internal feud with Jasper. Weakening me is just his first step toward gaining control over me."He's been a fugitive ever since his successful prison break, never returning to Cyrris after receiving his life sentence. His power base remains in Kontina. "I'm the last surviving Dutton. The Dutton Group, as a cover, has declared bankruptcy and severed all ties with the country. "My dear uncle has taken a huge risk just to target me. He sent his men to attack you in Solana City. What a delightful surprise.

The hospital ward grew heavy with silence. Mandy and Neil stared at Alyssa, stunned beyond words. "M-Ms. Alyssa, you knew that man was Mr. Damien?" Neil asked, disbelief etched into his voice. "Yes." Alyssa's reply was quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper. "We found out when Cyrus took Damien's cigarette butt for a paternity test."Mandy approached Alyssa, her shoulders trembling slightly. "So, you and Cyrus knew… and you both kept it from me?" Mandy said, her voice catching in her throat, tears welling up. Alyssa felt a sharp pang in her chest. "Mandy, I'm sorry. It was my decision. Cyrus had nothing to do with it."Mandy's tears fell freely now, her grief spilling out in raw sobs. "Do you know what it's been like for me all these years, thinking Damien was gone? Winston, Miley, Lyla, and Colene kept telling me to move on. I tried to accept that he was dead, that we'd never find his body. But I never did."Her vo

The hospital ward was bathed in a dim, yellow glow from the bedside lamp. The silence was thick, yet the room held a strange warmth—an unfamiliar comfort that felt oddly familiar to Remy.Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to sit up. His eyes fell on Mandy, who was asleep beside his bed. Her hair was a mess, and her swollen eyes suggested she'd been crying. She was sound asleep. Remy stiffened. His breath quickened as he stared at her fragile figure. Slowly, he leaned forward, his fingers lifting slightly, tempted to reach out.Just as his hand hovered close, Mandy's lashes fluttered. In her sleep, she murmured, "Damien… Damien… I miss you so much…" Tears slipped down her cheeks, silent and unbidden.A pang tugged at Remy's heart. Without thinking, he brushed away her tears with his calloused fingers. The moment his skin touched hers, a jolt shot through him, sharp and electrifying. Pain throbbed at his temples, but beneath it was a warmth he didn't want to let g

Justin's casual question hit Javier like a thunderclap. Shock rippled through him, freezing his expression. His voice trembled with fear as he barked, "What nonsense is that? Are you accusing me of causing Chester's death? I'm your father—how could you think I'd do such a thing?""It's not an accusation. Just the facts," Justin replied coolly, crossing his legs and savoring his tea with unsettling calm. "And I'm not condemning you. In fact, I understand why you did it. I'm facing the same dilemma now."Javier's breathing grew ragged. He had watched Justin grow from a child into the man before him—now a predator, circling with quiet menace."You were meant to be the heir as the eldest son," Justin continued, his voice smooth as silk. "But Grandpa favored Uncle Chester, handing him major projects, grooming him in plain sight. "Uncle Chester's reputation soon eclipsed yours. He was a natural leader, adept at business, with one fatal flaw—he was kind. Too kind. Unlike you."Justin

Nonetheless, night had fallen by the time Justin arrived at Seaview Manor. On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible. Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully. He had never lost contact with Remy before. Justin's face was as dark as the night itself. The moment he stepped inside Seaview Manor, Rory approached with a solemn expression. He gave a slight bow before speaking. "Mr. Justin, what took you so long? Mr. Javier has been waiting.""I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back here yet?" A conflicted look came across Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. I doubt he'll want to see you anytime soon—or show up here.""Is that so? How disappointing."Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he se

Jonah scoured every corner of the hotel, desperation clawing at his chest, but Julien was nowhere to be found. "Jonah!" Alyssa called out, breathless as she caught up to him. She grabbed his arm. "Calm down! I'll help you search for Jul!""I can't find him. He's gone," Jonah murmured, sinking to the floor. His tears mixed with sweat, creating dark patches on the ground. "Lyse… I fear… if I can't find Julien this time, I'll lose him forever."The agonizing thought of losing the love of his life pierced him. "No, you won't!" Alyssa gripped his arm tighter, her voice trembling with conviction. "If Jul had given up on you, he wouldn't have come here today. The fact that he showed up means he still cares."Jonah's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a pain too deep to hide. He shook his head slowly. "Julien came back for Jasper. He did it because he's loyal… because he's a good friend. Not because of me.""He does care!" Alyssa insisted. "If he didn't, he would've faced you without fli
