Faced with Alyssa's honesty, Jameson felt a surge of anger. His hands clenched the bed sheets tightly. "I've been married to Jasper for three years, but I've known him much longer than that. It's definitely longer than you might think." Alyssa spoke calmly, as if chatting with a friend, but she couldn't deny that mentioning those past events still caused an ache in her heart. She continued, "Once, there was nothing in my life but him. Later, he divorced me, and it felt like he had taken my entire heart with him. My body had a void from then on, like an irreparable disability. "If you were me, could you ignore it? Could you pretend that nothing ever happened?" "Lyse, I …" "But don't think that I'm so dependent on Jasper that I can't live without him. That's too extreme."Alyssa waved her hand, a momentary sadness crossing her beautiful eyes. "Life must go on. I just need some time." "Lyse, no matter how long it takes, I'm willing to wait for you."Jameson's pale face sho

Alyssa slammed the bathroom door and sat on the toilet. She bit her lips and scrolled through Twitter's trending topics and comments in a frenzy.Large beads of sweat fell onto the screen one by one."Hahaha! I knew it. Men are all the same. They just can't stay loyal. Wasn't there a rumor about Jasper getting close to the Taylor family's daughter? He kept defending her, and now he's involved with Zoe. How can he be so unfaithful?""It's officially confirmed. He's the scumbag of the century!""It's all a lie. Let me tell you—Jasper just wants to marry into the Taylor family and become a billionaire son-in-law! If he really ends up with Alyssa, it's a union between the Beckett and Taylor dynasties. With Winston as his father-in-law, who would dare to challenge him in the whole of Andgalbia?""Huh? Jasper's a billionaire himself. He doesn't need Alyssa." "Hah, don't be naive. Who doesn't like having more money?"Alyssa's eyes grew cold as she raised her hand, tightly gripping her

The screen showed a string of numbers instead of a name. Jasper had always had two numbers, one for personal use and one for work. She remembered them both very well. He would only use his personal phone to call her privately, so this time was a bit unusual. Alyssa's heart tightened, and she answered the call, slowly placing the phone to her ear, but remained silent. "Lyse!" Jasper's voice was hoarse and unrecognizable. Alyssa didn't reply. She kept her lips tightly sealed. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly. "Lyse, please believe me, I've been set up by someone!" Jasper knew it wasn't easy to get her to answer the call, so he didn't waste time and got to the point. "This is a complex setup. Zoe couldn't have done it alone. Someone must be backing her!"And the bait set by the other party wasn't Zoe. It was you!"Alyssa, with her eyes cast down, spoke slowly. "Let's meet at the City Center Amusement Park near KS World in half an hour."If she hadn't answered Jonah's call

"Well, that makes things easier." Jameson smiled faintly and added, "You did a big favor for me tonight. Thanks for your hard work." "Mr. Schmidt, please don't say that. I owe my life to you, and I'm willing to do anything for you," Amber said softly, full of affection. Jameson's tone was stern, "I'll send you a plane ticket and some money. You can go and enjoy yourself for a while. If you need more, just let Todd know, and he'll send it to you." Amber's breath caught, and she became anxious. "Thank you, Mr. Schmidt. Are you sending me away?" "Jasper fell for our trap. He won't let it slide. He'll start an investigation right away. He's not foolish, but Ms. Alyssa has thrown him off this time."To avoid unnecessary trouble, you should lay low for now. Todd will temporarily handle things on The Millennium's side.""But …""Listen to me." Jameson's voice turned cold suddenly. Amber's throat tightened as she muttered, "Yes, Mr. Schmidt."…Alyssa got to the park first becau

Jasper's eyes were red as he took a step forward. His warm and shaky breath brushed against Alyssa's red nose as he reached out to hug her."Don't touch me!"Suddenly, Alyssa, like a hedgehog with raised spines, stepped back and threw the ice cream she was holding directly onto his shirt."Lyse, I'm telling the truth!"Jasper's arms hung in the air, torn between wanting to approach her and fearing her resentment. He was in such a tangle that he was on the brink of madness. Jasper exclaimed, "I called you so many times tonight, but you didn't answer! I thought something had happened to you, and I've been worried about you all night!"Alyssa was startled. So many times? When did he even call?Was he making things up? Alyssa didn't receive any calls. Jasper was a liar—a liar who didn't even make the effort to craft a believable lie!"I received photos from an anonymous number. They showed you being embraced by a stranger, entering a hotel together! I was worried for your sa

"Jameson Schmidt!""Mr. Beckett, instead of accusing me without evidence, why don't you consider how you'll explain yourself to the Harpers? How do you plan to clarify this with your friend, Landon Harper?"Ms. Harper is unmarried. Given recent events, I believe marriage might be on the horizon for you." Jameson smiled."Jimmy, quit it. Let's go," Alyssa suggested. She felt a stabbing pain in her heart and had the urge to flee the scene. She needed to get away from Jasper—as far as possible.As they turned to leave, Jasper persisted, "Were you with Jameson the entire night?""Yes," she said coldly, her back turned toward him."Alyssa, is he more important to you than me?" Jasper trembled despite trying to control his emotions."Jasper, what's the point of asking that now?" She chuckled, her eyes dimmed. "To be blunt, you've dug your own grave. I was lying to myself. Let's call it quits now—I beg you."With that, they vanished from his teary vision. Alyssa did not turn back at a

"Lyse, what's wrong?" Jameson noted the change in Alyssa's expression and asked with concern.She stated, "I've never blocked Jasper on my phone. Why is his contact in my blocked list?" Her piercing gaze landed on Jameson's innocent face."Lyse …""Did you do that?" She cut to the chase. "I did not contact anyone except for you tonight. Jasper claimed that he called me throughout the night but couldn't reach me because his number was blocked."Jameson balled his fists on his knee. There was a glint in his eyes.She squinted at him and recalled, "I remember that I left my phone when I used the restroom at the restaurant. Did you take the chance to block his number?""Lyse, are you suspecting me now?" Jameson stared at her with innocent-looking bright eyes."I am not suspecting you. I am merely stating the truth," Alyssa countered harshly.Jameson felt a weight on his chest that nearly crushed him. He began, "Lyse, I shouldn't have touched your phone, but I didn't want him interr

Alyssa knitted her brows as she grappled with the mixed emotions. She argued, "I'm not worth risking your life for. You should cut your losses now."Cut his losses?Rage filled Jameson's eyes as he clenched his fists against the car window. Her words were more humiliating and hurtful than a simple "I do not love you."She continued, "Everyone is deserving of love. I don't want to see you end up like me."…Jasper returned to his car well past midnight. Xavier purchased a cup of hot coffee from the 24-hour mart across the park. When he handed the coffee to Jasper, he noticed that Jasper's hands were too frozen to grip the cup properly.Feeling sorry for Jasper, Xavier increased the heat in the car and draped Jasper in his jacket. Then, he placed the coffee in Jasper's hands.He suggested, "Mr. Beckett, there's a hospital nearby. Let's see a doctor. Your hands are cracking from the cold.""How did he do it?" Jasper stared at his phone and pondered icily.Xavier was surprised. "W

"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

Despite his age, Newton exuded the same energy and sharpness he had in his younger days, even when surrounded by the board members brimming with vigor. Despite his quiet presence in the wheelchair, an intimidating atmosphere clung to him. In an instant, Javier was transported back to the days when he worked under Newton's strict supervision."Good day, Mr. Javier and all fellow board members. I assume no one has any objections to my presence at this meeting?"Newton's gaze swept across the room, a perfunctory smile gracing his lips."Of course not. You are part of the corporation's board of directors!" the members responded immediately.Newton nodded. "Much has happened within the corporation lately. Our shares have been fluctuating amid the controversy. "As you all know, I had intended to retire after dedicating most of my life to this company. I wanted to step aside for the younger generation rather than hover over them like a specter, micromanaging everything. "However,

Jasper's arrival plunged the conference room into an uneasy silence, and heavy tension settled over the space. Justin looked up, his expression a frozen mask. A palpable chill emanated from him. Javier's eyes widened in surprise. "Jasper? What are you doing here?" "Even though I'm no longer the president of Beckett Group, I remain a shareholder and board member. It's only natural for me to be here," Jasper replied smoothly as he strolled to his seat. As he passed behind Justin, he abruptly stopped. Without a moment's notice, he struck the back of Justin's chair. The sudden impact made Justin flinch. "Am I right, Justin?" Justin's expression darkened. Forcing a smile, he replied, "As a board member, you have the right to attend, even if you're no longer involved in operations. There's no issue.""If that's the case, why wasn't I informed about this meeting?" Jasper lowered himself into his seat, legs slightly parted, exuding an air of indifference. Yet, beneath the nonc

Beckett Group was, in essence, Javier's heart and soul, forged from his own labor. "Justin set me up, framed me for drug addiction, and bribed my primary physician to give false testimony—all so he could drag me down. The fact that he dared to target me like this means he's willing to betray anyone."Jasper took a deep breath, forcing down the rage roiling inside him as Javier remained silent. "Fine. Even if you insist this is just a family matter, Justin's reputation is already in ruins, and the corporation's stock prices are fluctuating. Are you really going to stand by him, even now?""Justin has explained everything to me. He wasn't aware of the bribery. That female doctor who worked for him acted on her own. Besides, she's been arrested. The backlash against Justin will settle in time…"Jasper listened, his face unreadable, but his heart clenched painfully. A lump rose in his throat, suffocating him.He had lost his mother at a young age, but he had never longed for his fa
