Chapter 879

Author: Ginger Sue
The Taylor siblings were all present out of concern for Alyssa. Liam was the only one absent, being in the military.

"Jonah, why did Lyse have an accident out of the blue?" Tatiana gasped, tears brimming in her eyes.

Feeling bad, Sean wanted to hug Tatiana, but he knew his place as a secretary. It would be inappropriate to do so in front of the other Taylor siblings.

He brushed away his thoughts, but his passionate gaze lingered on Tatiana.

Perhaps a man of his standing was only good enough to stand guard for Tatiana.

"Right, Jonah. Lyse is an excellent driver. Her skills are as good as mine. There's no reason she'd ram into someone's car. By right, she would have been the one who speeds on the roads," Axel said in confusion.

On Axel's way to the hospital, he was gravely concerned by Alyssa's condition, which was rare for someone who had never flinched at the gunpoint of criminals on his missions.

Huddled in the corridor, Silas and Cyrus cast worried glances at Jonah. The air wa

Julien was deeply attracted to the pain and vulnerability underneath Jonah's tough exterior.Jonah collected himself and fixed his gaze on Julien. "What's the matter?"Squinting, Julien approached Jonah slowly. Their eyes met, and their breaths intermingled.Suddenly, Julien reached out and gently caressed the corner of Jonah's eye. Jonah's heart raced, and his breathing grew heavy."I know you feel bad for your sister. I understand your feeling," Julien whispered into Jonah's ear. "But promise me, don't do anything rash. You wouldn't want to worry your princess, right? I'll be worried about you, too."Jonah's ears turned red. Some unknown emotions stirred within.Julien straightened his back and put on an impish smile once more. "I won't ask for a ride because you're busy. Looks like I can't go home anytime soon.

    "You were by Jasper's side throughout their three years of marriage. You knew what he had done to Alyssa, and he has to make amends to her as long as he's alive," Landon reminded Xavier.Xavier felt a stab in his heart when he recalled Alyssa's helplessness when she was living with the Becketts. Despite that, she remained a loyal and loving wife to Jasper.Tears rolled down Xavier's cheeks as he lamented Jasper's suffering. However, he knew that Alyssa had suffered a lot of heartache as well. …Xavier didn't want Jasper to wake up and have no one by his side, so he crashed on Jasper's couch that night without changing.He woke up the next morning without an alarm and reflexively looked in Jasper's direction.

    Sean opened the car door and stepped out from the passenger seat. Today, Jonah called him in for a temporary role, turning him back into the secretary of the CEO of KS Group. He dressed in a high-end, tailored gray suit, and his sharp gaze added an overwhelming charm to his already handsome appearance.Women in the vicinity admired him, but he didn't seem to care. He went to open the back door and gave a polite nod."Mr. Jonah, please."Jonah remained composed. His handsome features were devoid of any emotion. Exiting the car, he immediately elicited astonished reactions from the women nearby."Oh, my God! He's so handsome! He's going to be my dream material for tonight!""You're so greedy! You already have Mr. Beckett in your dreams, and now you want to add another one?""Is he really that handsome? I think he's not as good-looking as our Mr. Beckett.""You just don't get it! This guy has a totally different vibe than Mr. Beckett. Mr. Beckett is eye-catching with his hand

    "Mr. Jonah, we appreciate your presence, but using force against Beckett Group's staff is inappropriate, both in terms of etiquette and reason, isn't it?"Ignoring his words, Jonah responded, "Is Jasper coming out, or should I go in?"Xavier's anger surged at Jonah's actions, and his expression darkened. "I'm sorry, Mr. Beckett is in a meeting and cannot meet with you. Please leave!"Ignoring Xavier, Jonah lifted the corner of his lips and advanced toward him. Xavier felt a little uneasy as he extended his arm to block Jonah.The next moment, Jonah made a move. Xavier couldn't even see what happened. His arm was twisted behind his back, and then he was forcefully thrown. Xavier fell to the ground, and his arms were dislocated. He endured the pain. Clenching his teeth and with a sweaty forehead, he could only watch as Jonah and Sean entered through the door.The atmosphere inside the conference room was solemn.Jasper occupied the head of the conference table with a king

    Jonah took a few steps and stood in front of Jasper. He looked down on Jasper's pale face with contempt."Jasper, you truly deserve to die." The next moment, Jonah suddenly leaned forward, knocking Jasper off the chair! The two men fell heavily, and Sean exclaimed in shock, "Mr. Jonah! Be careful!" Jasper's back suffered a severe blow, and it felt as though his internal organs shook with it.Suddenly, a glint of coldness flashed in his eyes. Jonah stared at him with a fierce gaze. He held a sharp cross-shaped dagger high, aiming at Jasper's pupils, as if about to deliver a cruel punishment.Sean panicked and shouted, "Mr. Jonah! Stop!" He comprehended Jonah's feelings entirely. He, too, shared his resentment toward Jasper for robbing Alyssa of her innocence.However, Jonah would be caught up in endless trouble if he harmed Jasper, and Alyssa would be plunged into deep self-blame! This was never the situation Alyssa wanted to see. Jonah should not soil his hands for su

    Jonah and Sean left.However, the news of the CEO of KS Group's sudden visit to Beckett Group had rapidly spread throughout the building.Landon helped Jasper back to the office. Xavier also came along as he was unable to shake off his concerns. His arm was dislocated, and his clothes were covered with sweat out of pain, but he didn't utter a word.Landon noticed something was off and then realized Xavier was injured, too. He quickly arranged for someone to take Xavier to the hospital for treatment."Jonah normally appears gentle and refined. But when he goes berserk, damn ..." Landon sighed, finding no words to describe the horror."It's all for his sister. I understand him," Jasper said wearily. He sat on the sofa with his neck tilted back, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.If someone else had bullied Alyssa, he might have acted even more recklessly than Jonah.Thinking about Jonah's parting words, Jasper's breath hitched. He felt as though his blood froze in his

    "Stupid! How can that woman be so stupid?" Jasper pondered."Lauren is a witness. Suppose you can't believe others; at least trust Lauren. I'm really surprised. How can you have no memories at all after being intimate with a woman? It's so bizarre!""I don't know. I really don't know ..."Jasper clutched his head. He felt a sharp pain in his heart."That day was the anniversary of my mother's death. I was in a bad mood and drank too much alcohol. Later, I would sometimes even dream of being intimate with Alyssa in bed. I thought it was just a dream. I really didn't expect that we had a night together.""I recall you were still involved with Liana two years ago. You explicitly stated that you intended to reconcile with Liana eventually. "You were convinced that you and Alyssa would end up divorcing because she held no significance in your heart. Doesn't it sound absurd now, Jasper? But those were your own words at the time, weren't they?"Jasper was emotionally shaken by Landon'

    Jameson's eyes betrayed a flicker of indiscernible emotions upon hearing Carl's words. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Did you find anything about the man I asked you to investigate? The one that was getting close to Amber."Carl hesitated momentarily before showing a troubled expression and admitted, "I sincerely apologize, Mr. Schmidt. I ... couldn't find anything.""Nothing?" Jameson raised an eyebrow."Yes, I'm ineffective," Carl admitted. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead. "I've tapped into all my connections to gather information on that man. But his background is so immaculate. It's like it's encrypted, leaving no trace or any leads.""Oh? Well, he sounds like an interesting person." Jameson smirked, but his eyes lacked any amusement. "I had you assign people to monitor Amber closely. Is she behaving herself?""Of course, Ms. Altman is either at The Millennium or in the villa you arranged for her. She hasn't gone anywhere else.""Keep an eye on her, and d

    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

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.
