"Wait."For some reason, the conversation irritated Jasper. Sternly, he asked, "Ms. White, don't you owe Liana an apology?"Landon sighed helplessly, resisting the urge to stuff his socks into Jasper's mouth.A dull pain throbbed in Alyssa's heart. She turned around to cast him a blank stare. Her disappointed gaze pierced Jasper's soul. "She didn't do it! Alice didn't do it!" Just at that moment, a sweet, gentle voice cut through the air. It arrived unannounced, like lightning on a clear day, foiling the plot that had been carefully planted. When Alyssa turned her gaze toward the source of the voice, there was a glimmer in her eyes."Lauren!"A girl clad in a simple white dress was hurrying toward them. She was sporting a ridiculous crown of dense curls, which was Betty's doing. Lauren had always been Betty's imaginary enemy in their family. Betty envied her little sister's beauty. She always looked for new ways to bully her. Whenever they appeared in public, she would

Jasper narrowed his eyes. And he turned his piercing gaze to Liana's pale face. When he let go of her waist, Liana clung to him desperately. She ignored the pain in her hand. "No, Jasper, it's not true! Alice provoked me first! I didn't provoke her! Lauren's mind isn't good, don't believe her!""Her mind isn't good? Well, I think the only thing not good about her is her hairstyle. She explained everything clearly," Landon sneered. For Jasper's sake, he didn't say anything too harsh. He couldn't believe that Jasper, the playboy, would treat Liana like his true love. He wasn't easy to please, yet he was sticking to her like he was under a spell. "Ms. White didn't hurt you, right?" Jasper took a deep breath, his voice tense. With the witness present, Liana broke into a cold sweat. She dared not lie again."So, you slandered her?" Jasper's words cut through Liana like a knife."N-No, I—"Liana began to shiver in fear, her body trembling like a leaf. Suddenly, she fainted from

After receiving treatment, Liana was transferred to a normal ward. The doctor said she wasn't seriously injured. Although the wound was a little deep, it didn't require stitches. She had fainted because of her excessive panic and mental tension. "You finally woke up, Liana!" Rosaline cried by her bed. She sobbed as if she was in Liana's wake. "I thought I would never see you again!" "Alright, alright, stop mourning. Jasper isn't here. There's no point in crying so loudly. You're bothering me," Sophia said. She crossed her arms and asked, "Have you figured out how to handle this situation?""Which situation?" Rosaline wiped away her tears, a little confused."Which situation? Don't tell me you've messed up more than once?" Sophia sneered as she glared at her useless younger sister. "Your failures are more than your successes. Do I look like a magical genie? I've been supporting you so that your daughter ends up with Jasper. With that bird brain of yours, do you think your da

"Mr. Beckett! It's all my fault! It's all my mistake!" Rosaline thought it would be better to admit her wrongdoing instead of waiting to be questioned. She couldn't let this matter affect her daughter and ruin her chances of marrying into a noble family. So she rushed over with a sorrowful expression. And she knelt in front of Jasper. "The Gardners are in trouble. Our cash flow is broken, and our factories are closing down one after another. When the Becketts refused to help, we were forced into a corner by the Taylors. We were left with no choice …"So I discussed it with Liana's father, and we decided to sell some family assets for the sake of our company's finances. I secretly sold Liana's jewelry. Liana didn't even know of it! "If I had known that the necklace was the token of your love to Liana ... Even if I starved or died of poverty, I would never have sold it!" Liana secretly heaved a sigh of relief before pretending to be shocked. Tears welled in her eyes, and she cri

As the night fell, they arrived at the ACE. It was one of Landon's properties. Jasper was feeling extremely depressed. So, he did something he had never done before—he went out to drink with his friends. Landon picked him up personally. Jasper rarely took the initiative to contact him. "Sometimes, I feel like I'm your mistress," Landon murmured into Jasper's ear. In front of others, he was bold and fearless. But he turned chatty and gossipy whenever he was around Jasper."I've never stooped so low for any woman. But I'm like a mistress waiting for her man when it comes to you. You just have to give me a booty call, and I'll doll up and come running to you. Aren't I the best? C'mon, admit it! Even I feel touched by my actions!" "You've never stooped low for any woman?" Jasper glanced at him. "Well, you were stooping pretty low for Alice." "That was a one-time thing! It's mainly because your ex-wife is too outstanding, and I ... I can't help myself," Landon said. Jasper resi

After returning from the charity auction, Alyssa locked herself in her room. She refused to come out. She was in an unusually low mood. In the evening, Jonah and Silas visited their sister. Although Alyssa came downstairs, she seemed listless. She was lacking her usual vigor."Lyse, I heard about what happened at the auction from Mrs. Taylor," Jonah said as he gently held his sister's bandaged hand. He stroked it tenderly. "How's your injury? Did Sean take care of dressing the wound for you? Does it still hurt? Is there any infection?""I have basic first aid. I can take care of it myself. Sean's already worried about many things. I don't want to bother him with something this small," Alyssa replied sullenly. She quickly pulled her hand back."Sean is becoming less reliable! If I hadn't bumped into Mrs. Taylor at home and learned about what happened to you at the auction, we would've been kept in the dark!" Silas said, his eyes filled with rage. "Tomorrow, I'll deliver a subpoen

"I-I …" Tears welled up in Lauren's eyes as she choked on her words."You just want to go against our wishes! Since we look down on Alice, you decide to help her out. All because you wanted to show how special you are! Do you really think you're a heroine for doing that?" Betty's pretty face was now twisted into one of hatred and anger. "Stop being stupid! Mr. Landon will never have feelings for you! Stop being delusional!" "Ms. Betty, what are you doing?" Mrs. Rosie rushed into the room before pulling Lauren into a hug.The other housekeepers in Seaview Manor were used to such dramas. Besides, they'd rather stay away from the conflict. Mrs. Rosie was the only one who dared to defend Lauren. "Get out, Mrs. Rosie! This is none of your business!" Betty snapped at her in frustration."I think you should be the one leaving this room!" Mrs. Rosie comforted Lauren, who was trembling in fright. She eyed Betty up and down. She warned, "If you leave this room right now, I'll preten

That night, the Taylor siblings left Solana City and returned to Belbanks. The cities weren't that far from each other. It only took the siblings less than two hours to reach Belbanks via the highway.Solana City was the country's economic center. It was rich in resources. It was a great place for businesses to expand and develop, so countless companies competed for a spot there. However, Belbanks was an entirely different story. Over the past century, the Taylors were the only ones dominating the city.The Taylor family's businesses gave one-third of the Bellbanks population their jobs. Hence, the family was known as the Ruler of Belbanks. It could be said that Belbanks would remain a small ordinary town without the Taylors' influence. After all, they were the ones who brought about such a massive change in the city's economy. Soon, the siblings arrived at Stellus."Oh, Ms. Alyssa! When did you return to this city?" Don Blackwell, the elderly groundskeeper of Stellus, w

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

Julien's merciless, hate-filled words hit Jonah like a ton of bricks. The pain was unbearable, a gut-wrenching ache that shattered his heart.Under the dim lighting, Julien vaguely noticed a sorrowful tear forming at the corner of Jonah's eye. But before it could fall, Jonah forced a blink, swallowing his emotions whole. Despite Jonah's attempt to brace himself, sorrow engulfed him, a tidal wave of despair. His features mirrored the devastation ripping through his heart. As Evan opened the driver's side door, Julien lurched forward and vomited again. The sickening sound of him retching echoed in the air as if he were expelling everything inside him. "Judas, Mr. Lovelace looks like he's suffering from alcohol poisoning. We should take him to the hospital."Evan's worry deepened at Julien's condition. Jonah wordlessly removed his suit jacket and began cleaning the mess in the car. His chest tightened painfully as he watched Julien groaning, clearly suffering. Then, without he

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. It seems he truly doesn't trust me, his only remaining family."Remy lowere
