"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

Axel's lips curled with his usual unruly smile as he discreetly observed Jameson. On the night at the bar, the woman resembling Lyse left in haste and got into a car belonging to the Schmidt family. The alley was dimly lit, and the car's interior remained obscured in darkness. Axel couldn't distinctly identify the man who was with Amber that night.Still, being a top special agent, his remarkable ability to observe and remember details allowed him to confidently surmise that the man was likely Jameson."You must be Lyse's fourth brother. I have heard a lot about you and am pleased to finally meet you in person." Jameson immediately put on a friendly smile and greeted Axel."Oh? You recognize me?" Axel raised an eyebrow. He felt a little surprised that Jameson recognized him. "Lyse and I were childhood friends. My father and Uncle Winston were also good friends. I used to visit your house often as a child," Jameson replied in a gentle tone, smiling. "I know Mrs. Taylor had

Tatiana gently shook her head. "No, based on what I've heard from Mandy and others, it appears that Dad isn't pleased with Uncle Victor's two sons. So, he has been avoiding this matter. But Uncle Victor seems persistent and has even regarded Lyse as his daughter-in-law."Axel sneered. "Hmph! That old man overestimated himself! Lyse is like a celestial beauty. Pairing her with those jerks from the Schmidt family is simply a waste! Winston probably thinks the same. That's why he didn't agree.""Winston does have some insight sometimes," Axel muttered under his breath. …"Lyse, I'm here." Jameson entered the room, moving with a quiet and measured step.A deep ache seized his heart as he noticed Alyssa sitting beside the bed, appearing somewhat drowsy. She seemed to be worn and feeble. Despite being a schemer with numerous misdeeds, he demonstrated unmatched sincerity in his love for Alyssa.In this life, he would marry no one but Alyssa. His feelings had remained unchanged fo

Through the passage of time and a multitude of shared experiences, Axel's mindset subtly and gradually shifted.After a while, Tatiana woke up abruptly. She straightened up in surprise, and her eyes stared vacantly into the distance. She used her hand to wipe away the drool from the corner of her mouth."Why did you wake up already? Nap a little longer," Axel chuckled. Her cute expression reminded him of Alyssa's childhood days."S-Sorry, Axel!" Tatiana panicked. She blushed when she realized that her drool had stained Axel's shoulder."I-I dirtied your shirt. I'll wash it clean when we get home! I'm sorry!"Axel couldn't help but feel sorry for his youngest sister when he observed her distress. The Taylor siblings often revolved around Alyssa, subconsciously considering her the youngest. Little did they realize that Tatiana was the one who needed more concern as she was the youngest in the family. Yet, she was often overlooked."It's okay, don't worry about it," Axel ass

"Younger brother?" Jonah echoed. The mention of Damien brought a sharp pang to his chest. Memories of the plane crash flashed before his eyes. He continued, his voice tight with emotion, "Even if he is my brother, he allied with the devil and chose a corrupt path. I am severing ties with him!"With that, Jonah slammed his arm down, a decisive gesture."Jonah! No!" Jasper shouted.In the next instant, Remy, with an almost unnatural calm, grabbed the blade of the dagger with his bare hand. Blood began to flow from his palm.Jonah's heart twisted in agony. Family meant everything to him, yet here he was, inflicting harm on one of his own."I didn't come here to stop you," Remy said, his voice low and strained as he met Jonah's reddened eyes. "But I must stop both of you. This is my mission."Jonah stared at him, stunned. "Why—""Because I work for Sir. I have no choice but to follow orders."Turning to Jasper, Remy said, "Go." …After watching them leave, Remy trudged through

Jasper and Jonah went to get Sebastian and Xavier out of the car. The four of them then bolted toward the other end of the alley. A clamor broke out behind them. Jasper glanced back, his heart pounding.Warmth surged through his hardened heart as he saw Axel holding his own in a brutal fight against over a dozen assassins, skillfully subduing them one by one."Jasper!" All of a sudden, Jonah stopped in his tracks. Jasper turned to see what had caught his attention, and his heart sank. Standing at the alley's end, silhouetted against the light, was a tall figure radiating a presence that commanded fear. Though the man's face was obscured, his unyielding presence was unmistakable. It was Justin's right-hand man, Remy."Mr. Beckett, w-what should we do?" Xavier stammered.With a fierce glint in his eyes, Jonah took a step forward. "I'll hold him back. The rest of you, keep going." "Xavier, take Dr. Bender to the press conference immediately. Don't let anything stop you." J

"Maggie, I love you!" Xavier typed.Maggie replied, "Xave, you're not usually this corny. What happened?" Xavier couldn't bring himself to tell her that those words were his final ones if something happened to him.His phone buzzed again. It was Maggie sending another message that read, "I love you too, Xave." Tears filled Xavier's eyes. His lips quivered, and his heart raced. He cursed under his breath. It was time to go all out. With that, he grabbed the machete, swung open the car door, and swiftly took down two of Jasper's attackers.But Xavier wasn't a fighter. He had no real combat experience. It didn't take long before a blade sliced into his arm, the deep cut searing with pain.Jasper's eyes widened. He roared, "Xavier, get back in the car!"Distracted, Jasper's opponent swung a machete at his face. Xavier gasped, "Mr. Beckett!"Luckily, Jasper dodged the strike, his reflexes quick. He retaliated by snapping the attacker's arm.Xavier, pale and shaking with pain,

Frightened out of his wits, Xavier yelped, covering his head and crouching low in his seat. It wasn't that he was a coward. He had been brave in the past, but this situation was unlike anything an ordinary person would face.Working for Jasper meant Xavier didn't have to worry about his livelihood, but every day was a gamble with danger. If this continued, he might have to keep Nitroglycerin on hand just to survive.Jasper, with his strong, muscular frame, shielded Sebastian beneath him.He knew the attackers were after Sebastian, the witness, aiming to eliminate anyone who could tip the scales against them. If they could take down Jasper too, or at least injure him severely, it would be a bonus.These people were ruthless. Sebastian, oblivious to the danger, was muttering the Lord's Prayer under his breath. He didn't know that the man protecting him was sometimes more powerful than any deity."Don't lift your heads! Arrows aren't like bullets—they can pierce glass but not the

Time was ticking. The press conference was about to begin. Landon escorted Sebastian out of the manor and into Jasper's car. He glanced at Jasper, who sat in the back seat, his expression calm and composed.With concern etched on his face, Landon said, "Jasper, let me come with you. I can't feel at ease otherwise."Jasper met Landon's gaze, firm and aloof. "Don't worry, Landon. You've done enough. It's time for you to step back."If Landon continued to help, he would only get caught up in the chaos. Despite his current difficulty in articulating his feelings, Jasper couldn't forget that this was his best friend, the one he'd stood by for more than 20 years. Landon had endured so much to finally be happy with Lauren, and Jasper wasn't about to be the one to disrupt that hard-earned happiness. Understanding Jasper's stubbornness, Landon turned to Xavier. "Call me immediately if anything happens.""Don't worry, Mr. Harper," Xavier reassured. With that, Sebastian climbed into

That said, this strategy came with its own risks. It was as if Jasper and Axel were placing all their bets on Remy for the time being."Justin doesn't control someone without a reason. Since he has control over Remy, he will make full use of him."Jasper's chest tightened, a weight pressing down on him like a massive rock. He continued, "The only way to find Amber is to understand Justin's intentions clearly."…The press conference was scheduled for 5:00 pm at Berenike Hotel's Conference Hall A on Saturday. At 3:00 pm sharp, Justin sat in the president's office at Beckett Group, his expression frigid. He sat upright on the couch while Sheryl, standing beside him, carefully tended to the wound on his left ear, changing its dressing with caution. It had been only two days since he was shot in the ear. His flesh had been stitched up, and the stitches looked like a grotesque centipede crawling along his ear. There was no way to conceal the injury unless he donned a shoulder-lengt

"Remy beat Sheryl up?" Jasper repeated, his voice laced with disbelief. Having wiped away his tears, Axel leaned in to listen to the phone call."Yeah! I saw it with my own eyes in the surveillance footage. He punched her—brutally!" Xavier's voice was filled with astonishment. He exhaled sharply before continuing, "I thought they were a close-knit group. Looks like even they have internal conflicts!"After a brief pause, he ventured, "Mr. Beckett, do you think we could use this as a breakthrough? Maybe Remy has been at odds with Sheryl for a while, and he's tired of working under Justin. Perhaps all he needs is a little push to turn against them. After all, didn't Ms. Altman join us because she hated everything Jameson did?"Jasper didn't give a direct answer. Instead, he spoke quietly, "It's a clever thought, but it's still uncertain. We don't really know Remy's intentions. Our interactions with him have been few, and they've always been risky confrontations. I don't know what he

"Didn't you say you had no idea what I was talking about? In that case, this ear is useless to you. You're already a crippled man anyway. You might as well be deaf too." Axel's hands trembled with restrained rage. The temptation to end Justin's life surged through him—he wanted to pull the trigger, to rip him apart limb by limb. But he had made a promise to Jasper—no lives would be taken. A promise was a promise."I will rescue my wife. But you'll lose more than just an ear if I fail." Axel seized Justin by the hair, his reddened eyes brimming with tears. His voice cracked with fury and anguish. "I will make you suffer a thousand times the pain Amber has endured."Without warning, he released Justin and stormed out."S-Sir! I will get someone to take you to the hospital right away!" Sheryl crawled to Justin's side, panic-stricken as her eyes fell on the pool of blood spreading across the floor. Her trembling hands fumbled with her phone, unable to keep a firm grip as she scrambl

"Sir!" Sheryl shouted. She was just about to get to Justin's side when two shots were fired near her feet. Screaming, she dropped to her knees, threw her arms over her head, and scurried under the table like a terrified animal.The air in the room grew heavy with menace.Justin, known as the devil of the night, was a man who thrived on chaos. His power and influence stretched across continents, and he'd faced countless threats without flinching.But as his visitor approached, an unfamiliar dread coiled in his chest. His hands gripped the couch's armrests so tightly that his knuckles turned white. The terror was suffocating."Get out, all of you," the man commanded, his voice cold and sharp.The man remained fixated solely on Justin while Justin's guests fled in terror. "Help! Somebody!" Sheryl screamed, her voice muffled as she cowered under the table.No help would come. Outside, the others were either unconscious or dead.A deafening bang shattered the silence. The man fir
