Chapter 856

Author: Ginger Sue
It was as though Renee was nothing more than a pile of garbage at his feet.

Renee was completely disoriented, kneeling on the ground and forgetting to stand up.

No compare, no despair.

This comparison had made her experience extreme despair.

"Ms. Alyssa, is there something you want to talk about?" Jasper approached Alyssa. His gaze was profound, and his voice was husky.

"Yes. Can we talk privately?" Alyssa's eyes were calm. Though she was not loud, it was enough for everyone around to hear.

Without hesitation, Jasper replied, "Sure."

The two left together under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

Behind, there were only sounds of surprised sighs, one after another.

They all felt that the two were truly a perfect couple. They were so well-matched that it drew envy.

Alyssa and Jasper arrived at the hotel's back garden.

The cool night breeze scattered her luscious black hair into the air, creating a scene as mesmerizing as a painting.

The two fell into silence. It seemed like t

    Even without profanities, Jasper's words were akin to a sharp blade, leaving Alyssa feeling wounded."Jasper, I've never trampled on your dignity. Wasn't it you who came to me every time after the divorce?"Alyssa's eyes turned slightly red, but she defiantly wore a smirk that could infuriate anyone. She looked beautiful, yet her demeanor only made hearts ache for her."Your dignity is something you didn't want yourself. Now you blame me? Do you have no shame?"She shouldn't have come. She shouldn't have cared about him.If only she had known this would happen.Alyssa thought that Jasper was a scumbag and he deserved whatever that came his way. Suddenly, Jasper's breathing halted, and he felt a strong dizziness rush to his head. His figure swayed slightly."Hey! What are you doing?"Before the words could settle, a stone hit Jasper right on the back of his head.Jasper felt a sharp pain, and his brows furrowed.Meanwhile, Julien had already walked over briskly, reaching out

    "Dr. Lovelace is a renowned neurologist in Mosgravia. I specifically brought him to Solana City to treat the aftereffects for you.""Go back. I don't need it," Jasper replied, looking down. He refused outright. "Jasper, do you think I'm negotiating with you?" Alyssa's eyes widened."Do you think I'm negotiating with you, Alyssa?"Jasper locked eyes with Alyssa. His gaze appeared chillingly indifferent, as if veiled by a layer of ice. "My affairs have nothing to do with you. You don't need to care.""You … !""If you want to continue attending the party, move to the banquet hall. If you only came to talk to me about this, leave with your people."After saying that, Jasper turned and left expressionlessly without any hesitation or delay.He acted as if he and Alyssa had never met."Asshole! Do you want to die?" Alyssa shouted at his retreating figure, but he didn't stop."Jasper! Stop right there! Jasper!"Jasper gradually walked away, his figure disappearing into the night.

    Renee hid in the car, sobbing. Her eyeliner and mascara were smudged. She looked utterly pitiful."Enough! What are you crying for? Look at you, so pathetic!" Dominic was furious."I made such a fool of myself in front of so many people. What's wrong with shedding a few tears?"Renee miserably wiped her tears. "Mr. Beckett is really too much. I fell right in front of him. Shouldn't he help me? How could he turn a blind eye?"He can only see that bitch, Alyssa! His soul is with her!"When Dominic recalled Jasper's intense gaze and brazen stare at Alyssa, he was infuriated."Dad, Mr. Beckett still has feelings for Alyssa. What should I do?" Renee asked tearfully."What feelings? They wouldn't have gotten divorced if he truly had feelings for her. If they're divorced, it means he couldn't go on being married to her even for a day."Dominic sighed, his gaze dark. "Right now, if you want to get close to Jasper, Alyssa isn't the only obstacle. There's also that girl from the Harper f

    "There wasn't much to talk about in the first place." Jasper sat heavily on the sofa. He picked up a glass and downed the champagne in one gulp.Thoughts of Alyssa left him feeling irritated. He felt suffocated. Jasper's eyes then turned red from the strain. "You really can't say anything nice. Lyse came to see you, meaning she's not angry anymore. Why didn't you seize the opportunity to win back her favor?"Do you really want to be my brother-in-law? I represent the Harper family as the first to oppose you marrying into the family." Landon widened his eyes, acting all anxious."Landon, do you think I'm the only one who has made mistakes?" Jasper's hand clenching the glass revealed taut veins, as if he were suppressing some tormenting emotion."What do you mean? Should Lyse be the one to be blamed?""I don't know.""Jasper, with all the sacrifices Lyse has made for you, you have no right to blame her or be mad at her. If you truly love her, everything she does is right. Don't t

    Jasper didn't bother to look at Renee. As he drank his champagne, he said nonchalantly, "It's okay. I didn't mind.""Renee, you can't be so careless. You're a daughter of the Taylor family. How can you behave like this?"Dominic sternly criticized his daughter. "You should learn from Lyse. People say she looks down on you. As your father, even I can't look at you now.""Dad, I was wrong. I'll learn from Lyse."Renee gently bit her lip, tears glistening at the corners of her eyes. The act of coquetry was just like a switch for her. "I think ... as long as I work hard, Lyse will eventually recognize me, right? She won't look down on me like before.""Look down on you?"Jasper's eyes darkened, and he quirked an eyebrow. "I've been married to Alyssa. I know what kind of person she is."When she was with me, she never looked down on anyone, not even a servant in my family. How could she look down on her own cousin?"Landon nodded beside them.Though Jasper spoke harshly and acted r

    "Ms. Renee, you should know I'm your cousin's ex-husband." Jasper's profile was like a sharp blade, possessing a striking and awe-inspiring beauty.He finally took the initiative to talk to her, but it was about Alyssa."Yes, I know," Renee replied weakly."So, I think you should be mindful of your image. When Alyssa is around, it would be best if you refrain from appearing before me."However, Renee seemed to be under a spell. She misunderstood the meaning of his words. Blushing, she asked hesitantly, "Does that mean ... when she isn't around, I can—""I believe in other instances, the likelihood of our paths crossing is slim. That's why I didn't bother mentioning it. Don't read too much into it," Jasper coolly remarked, lifting his champagne and draining it in one go.Jasper's words left Renee feeling humiliated, as if she had been entirely dismissed.Over the years, she had been quite successful in the realm of love, with countless men pursuing her relentlessly. This was the

    Two figures emerged from the lounge. They were Sophia's assistant and a maid. Alyssa hurriedly hid behind the pillar with Julien and peeked at them.The maid grumbled in a hushed voice, "What's wrong with Madam Sophia? She's been acting weird lately.""Right? She was fine when she arrived. But she suddenly felt cold and asked for a jacket. When I handed it to her, she scolded me for giving her a thick jacket because she felt hot," the assistant said, looking grumpy."That's not all. She's been alternating between feeling cold and hot, and her appetite has increased!" the maid added.She then checked her surroundings before cautiously whispering, "Once, I found her in the kitchen by the fridge past midnight, shoving cake in her face!""That's impossible! She doesn't take desserts to maintain her figure.""God knows? She kept stuffing her mouth with cake. I was so terrified to see that."Alyssa and Julien overheard the conversation and frowned at the same time.The maid inched cl

    "Slowly, the worst side effects would show up," explained Tristan.Alyssa came to a realization. Tristan's explanation matches the accounts of the assistant and the maid.Tristan continued, "She deserved it. If you need me to, I can send her to the afterlife with one injection."The way he suggested the idea was heartless, as though life and death meant nothing much.Alyssa was speechless at Tristan's offer. He added fearlessly, "She is the one who abused the drugs in the first place. Besides, she signed an agreement and has to be partly responsible. Look, drug-related deaths are commonplace in our industry. "We will just treat it as another medical malpractice case. The worst punishment I would face is to have my license revoked and serve a two-year sentence.""There's no need to risk your future for a bitch like Sophia Kirkman. That would be a waste," Alyssa said with a sigh. "Tristan, I assure you that I will ensure your safety when you carry out my orders. This incident wi

    Searching for Amber without direction would be pointless. Jasper made a swift decision to bring Alyssa back to the manor, shielding her from the relentless chill of the wind. Once inside, he immediately began organizing the search. He deployed his men and contacted Landon, requesting additional support.The two of them sat together on the couch.This time, there was no space between them. It was as though an invisible force drew them closer, their proximity feeling natural yet electric. Neither could say who had moved first.Alyssa, however, was in no mood to dwell on their closeness. Wrapped in her down jacket, she curled up on the couch, her arms hugging herself tightly. A quiet frostiness emanated from her as she sat in silence, listening to Jasper's calm and methodical calls to mobilize his team.In the past, his composed presence would have been enough to ease her mind. But now, her thoughts were a tangled mess, each one like a razor claw tearing at her heart. The pain was u

    "Ms. Gillis, I've searched her thoroughly. She doesn't have anything on her." Sheryl's brows knitted in frustration. "How can that be? Where's her cell phone?" "There wasn't one." Sheryl, no longer concerned about dirtying herself, stepped forward, grabbed Amber by her hair, and forced her to meet her gaze."You bitch," Sheryl snarled. "You came to The Millennium at this hour for a reason. What did you find? Hand it over, and I might spare your worthless life!"Amber spat a mouthful of bloody saliva directly onto Sheryl's face."Fuck! You bitch!" Glaring at Amber, Sheryl rolled her sleeves up and slapped her twice in the face. Even so, it wasn't enough to quench her fury. She yelled, "Take her back!" Two of Sheryl's subordinates moved forward, dragging a limp Amber away. Sheryl's reddened eyes burned with fury as she wiped the spit off her face. She was teetering on the edge of madness."Search the area! Retrace her steps and leave no stone unturned!"…Jasper drove to

    Jasper strode out of the room and hurried down the stairs, his pace so brisk that Xavier had to jog to keep up. As Jasper reached the living room, he spotted Justin sitting upright in his wheelchair, alone. Their eyes locked when Jasper was just a few steps away.Hostility flickered between their gazes.Curling his lips upward into a slight smile, Justin asked, "Jasper, heading out at this hour?"Xavier gritted his teeth, loathing the self-righteous air Justin exuded, as if he always held the upper hand. The sight made him want to charge forward and knock Justin clean off his wheelchair."It's late. Why aren't you in bed?" Jasper asked coldly, his tone as sharp as his glare. "It seems that broken body of yours is still holding up.""Jasper, you seem to be in a rush. Did something happen? Do you need my help?" Justin maintained the smile on his face, disregarding Jasper's sarcastic remark. "It's none of your business."Without another word, Jasper swept past him. Justin's

    Jasper lay restrained on the bed, his body writhing violently as waves of agony crashed over him. A towel clenched between his teeth muffled his cries, though it could not silence the torment. Every inch of his skin felt as if it were being devoured by thousands of invisible ants—a relentless, gnawing pain brought on by withdrawal.He knew he could no longer rely on the medication. Time and again, the temptation clawed at him, urging him to surrender and take the easy way out. Relief was just a pill away. But Jasper's willpower, though battered, refused to shatter. Anne's words echoed in his mind, a guiding light in the darkness. She had always taught him to be a righteous man—one with a clear conscience. Curling into himself, Jasper shut his bloodshot eyes. He couldn't disappoint Anne. He couldn't let down those who believed in him. He had to resist the dark side. Outside the room, Xavier glanced at his wristwatch. Judging the timing to be right, he pushed the door open and l

    "How about now? Is Ms. Altman at home?" Alyssa asked urgently."She isn't," Clark replied. "She drove out the back gate alone around 11:00 pm. Our security personnel stopped her then, but she said she was just going out for some fresh air because she had trouble sleeping. She promised she wouldn't be long, but it's strange—she hasn't returned even now."Alyssa's ears began to ring, her heart sinking like a stone.When she ended the call, her nightgown clung to her skin, drenched in cold sweat. Her trembling hand gripped the phone tightly.She thought of calling Jonah, but he was still searching for Julien in Mosgravia. He wouldn't be able to return in time. Silas wasn't home tonight; he was likely with Rose. Besides, he was more of an academic than a fighter—not someone who could help in a crisis. Getting him out of bed in the middle of the night couldn't possibly solve any of their problems. Axel had returned to his organization, leaving Cyrus as the only one accessible who mi

    Amber's eyes reddened as she darted toward the trapdoor in The Millennium, tears streaming down her face.Remy had let her go. He actually spared her! Didn't this prove that he was Damien? That his true nature lingered, even if his memories of the past had been lost?Hope and excitement bubbled within her as she ran. She had to reach Alyssa immediately and share this evidence—this incredible news!Emerging from the trapdoor, Amber navigated the tangled paths among the weeds on the mountain behind The Millennium.Suddenly, she froze. Her breath hitched. Beams of white light shone from all directions, focusing on her. The cold, unyielding spotlights told her everything—she was surrounded, the target of an ambush.

    Amber glared at Remy through her bloodshot eyes, thrusting her gleaming blade toward his chest. In her early days of being Jameson's follower, the first lesson drilled into her was how to kill quickly and efficiently. Refinement wasn't necessary—only results mattered. Yet, despite mastering the techniques, she had never put them into practice. Deep down, Amber feared the sight of blood and loathed the idea of taking a life.And now, of all people, it was Remy forcing her to cross that line.The blade's tip hovered mere inches from Remy's heart when hesitation gripped her. Axel's voice echoed in her mind, raw with emotion. "Amber, I keep feeling that Remy is my fifth brother, Damien. We miss him… We want him to come home!"Her pupils dilated. The blade wavered, its deadly intent dissipating.That single moment of doubt was all Remy needed. With a calm, calculated motion, he seized her wrist and twisted it sharply.Amber gasped in pain, her grip faltering as the blade clattered

    The password to Jameson's room was Alyssa's birthday. Jameson had always believed himself to be a devoted man, taking pride in that notion. Yet, in Amber's eyes, his devotion was nothing more than a pathetic joke—a sentiment she couldn't help but detest.Taking a steadying breath, Amber began rummaging through the drawers and shelves with swift precision.Years of observation had taught her that Jameson had hidden several secret compartments in this room, places meant to conceal vital information. Unless Jameson or Carl disclosed their existence, even the police might not have uncovered them.After what felt like an eternity, sweat beading on her forehead, Amber discovered a hidden compartment beneath a floor sculpture.As she pried the brick loose, her breath hitched. Inside the compartment lay a waterproof plastic bag containing a document and a USB drive.Amber retrieved the document. Her heart raced as she realized its contents—a research report from Mosgravia's RC Biotech

    Ever since getting together with Axel, Amber had lived each day in bliss. Yet, when Winston assured her that he truly accepted her and approved of her marriage to Axel, that bliss reached its peak. For so long, Amber had struggled with feelings of inferiority, never truly believing she deserved Axel's love. Deep down, she had resolved to step away if Winston disapproved or insisted Axel marry a woman from a reputable family—a match more fitting of his status.She wouldn't have hesitated to leave if it meant sparing Winston and Axel any conflict. Amber loved Axel wholeheartedly and was willing to sacrifice everything for him.But instead of rejection, she found warmth. The Taylor family embraced her as one of their own, showing her kindness and understanding rather than disdain for her past.She could never repay such compassion. "Winston… Thank you.
