Chapter 897

Author: Ginger Sue
Winston listened attentively to everything Jameson said, maintaining silence throughout.

The car was filled with the sounds of deep, resentful inhales and exhales.

"Please calm down, Uncle Winston. You need to be mindful of your health." Jameson's face was filled with concern.

"That Beckett rascal … How could he humiliate my daughter?" Winston held his chest in agony. It felt like his heart was bleeding.

"Lyse may have experienced tragic events. However, those are in the past. I will take care and protect Lyse from now on."

Jameson looked at Winston with a passionate gaze. "I swear I will love Lyse only. To the best of my ability, I will ensure she is the happiest woman alive.

"Uncle Winston, my love for Lyse has nothing to do with you being her father, the Schmidt Group, or the Taylor Group.

"It's her unique qualities, personality, and the essence of who she is that I love. No other woman had ever been able to replace how important Lyse is to me. Not a single one."

    "Can you even handle it? Haha! If you had dealt with it correctly, Alyssa wouldn't be lying here suffering undeserving punishment," Winston scoffed. The glint in Jonah's eyes darkened. He was rendered speechless.Silas pursed his lips. He always had a way with words but had nothing to say now. "Jonah, come with me. I want to talk to you." Winston straightened his stiff back as he got up. He felt a tingling pain after sitting too long."Yes, Dad."Jonah came to help his father quickly. Then, both of them left the ward.…They arrived at the lounge. "What did you say?" Jonah was dumbfounded. He narrowed his eyes as he questioned, "You want Lyse to be with Jameson? Why?""I think the best way to get Lyse to walk out of the trauma Jasper had caused her is to have her start a new relationship. She should be with someone who cherishes her."Winston's eyes darkened. He had made up his mind. "Anyone could tell how head over heels Jameson is for Lyse. Plus, our families are a perfe

    It was a late night at Seaview Manor.After Betty showered, she applied medication to the plastic surgery marks on her face. She was ready to enjoy some red wine."Nina? Nina!" Betty called her maid. Nina quickly ran over to her. "I'm here, Ms. Betty."Since Alyssa made Nina a spy, she took a lot of time figuring out ways to get close to Sophia and Betty. She tried to gain their trust.She knew Sophia was often suspicious and didn't trust anyone easily. However, Betty was less manipulative than her mother. It was easier for Nina to get close to Betty.So, Nina fawned over Betty and was willing to do anything for her. Finally, she had the opportunity to stay by Betty's side to serve her.She was a lowly servant who had served under Lauren before. If she hadn't done all these to get close to Betty, Betty would have long kicked her out of Seaview Manor.There was no way she could complete the mission Alyssa had assigned to her then. "Go to the wine cellar and get me a nice bott

    "I went for aesthetic cosmetology tonight. Dr. McAslister gave me a jab. He said the jab will make me more relaxed. It should be more effective than the ones I used before."Sophia covered her head with her hands. Her eyes were filled with worry and panic. She continued, "After I took the jab, my body felt light and relaxed. Then, I fell asleep. But, when I woke up, Dr. McAlister asked, 'Who is Anne?'"Betty gasped. Goosebumps filled her entire body."Mom … W-What did you say? Dr. McAlister is in no business to know. How could you …"Betty knew the actual reason for Jasper's mother's death back then.On some level, Sophia was the culprit who had caused Anne to take her life.However, it had been executed with meticulousness. Sophia had bribed the maid who took care of Anne. The maid then swapped her medication for depression. She even asked Liana and Betty to spread rumors.As a result, Anne's condition worsened. She couldn't stand the physical and mental torture and leaped of

    Nina trembled as she curled herself in the wardrobe with a red wine bottle in her hand.She was overwhelmed by shock, and her face drained of color. Her eyes were bloodshot, as if she had cried profusely.What was she supposed to do?She was frantically trying to find an answer in her mind.She wondered who she should break this groundbreaking secret to—Jasper or Alyssa?…After Betty helped Sophia settle in, she returned to her room.When she helped Sophia out of her clothes, she noticed needle marks on the latter's arms. Betty couldn't help but shudder at the thought of it.Javier and Sophia no longer stayed in the same room. Since Lyla's accident, the couple had had more bad blood between them.Had they been sleeping on the same bed and Javier had seen those needle marks, Betty had no idea how he would react to them.When she reached her room, Betty saw Nina standing outside the door blankly as she waited for her with a red wine bottle in her hand.She didn't look well.

    She was like an ant on a hot pan, jittering with worry.The other end of the phone was exceptionally quiet."Mom? Mom! Did you hear what I said? What should we do now?""We need to get rid of that maid," Sophia said sinisterly after a long time."Pretend nothing ever happened. Let's keep it down and get someone to spy on her. When the time is right, we'll make this little troublemaker disappear from the face of the earth!"…Alyssa was discharged from the hospital after she recovered.Axel wasn't there when she was discharged because he didn't want to see Winston. Everyone else from the Taylor family came. Even Winston's wives rushed over from Belbanks.The wives were empathetic women. When they saw how scrawny the princess of the family had become, tears streamed down their faces. Alyssa had lost her usual radiant appearance."My dear child, you've suffered so much."Lyla was the most sensitive of all. Her eyes were swollen after all the crying. She went to Alyssa and hugged

    The Taylor family members were flabbergasted when they saw Jameson getting out of Winston's car.Alyssa frowned.Winston was an arrogant man who always sat on his high horse. No one from the younger generation except his children had ever sat in his car.Jasper was the most reputable, capable, and influential person in Solana City. Yet Winston had never thought that Jasper was worth his time. However, as of this moment, it seemed that Jameson had successfully gotten close to Winston. Anyone would be lying if they weren't shocked.If Alyssa remembered correctly, Winston used to be cold to Jameson. What was with the 180-degree change in his attitude after merely a few days?"Lyse, you look so much better. That's great."A gentle smile appeared in Jameson's eyes. He walked toward Alyssa with a vibrant bouquet of pink roses in his hand and gave them to her. "This is to celebrate your getting discharged from the hospital."Alyssa looked at the beautiful roses before her. Her eyes f

    He had heard about a love rival snatching someone's hand in marriage. But he had never heard of a brother snatching his sister's hand in marriage. However, Axel had never been afraid of anything. It wouldn't be a surprise if he did something like that. "Hey, bastard!"Axel looked at Jasper from beside him. "If, and I mean 'if', Jameson asks my sister's hand in marriage, will you interfere?"Jasper felt as if an arrow had pierced through his heart. Pain consumed his body.He couldn't entertain the thought of Jameson and Alyssa getting married."Shit, forget it. Neither you nor Jameson should think about getting my sister. None of you is worth her time," Axel cursed. He thought it was a stupid question to ask."I only want Lyse to be happy. As long as she's happy, I'm willing to do anything for her." Jasper felt as if something was stuck in his throat. His voice broke as he spoke."Then, can you help me separate Lyse and that Schmidt guy? Seeing them as a couple is a real pain,

    Colene thought about it. Perplexed, she said, "Winston's attitude seemed odd to me. He told us he wasn't fond of the Schmidt family's sons. Why did he suddenly change his attitude toward Jameson?"Mandy frowned slightly.Jameson seemed to have some tricks up his sleeve.…Alyssa stared out the window the whole time. She was uninterested in speaking to Jameson.Meanwhile, Jameson sat beside her quietly. His eyes didn't leave her for a second. He thought he was the luckiest man in the world, even if he was watching over her silently."Jimmy, thank you for keeping me company while I was at the hospital."Alyssa didn't look at him, but her tone was gentle. "I'm sure you're tired. Make sure you rest well when you get back. Please don't look for me for now.""Lyse, d-do you not wish to see me?" Jameson frowned as his heart tightened."I don't know what you told my father, but if you still want to be my friend, I hope everything stops here."Alyssa looked at him this time, but her e

    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

    The hospital ward grew heavy with silence. Mandy and Neil stared at Alyssa, stunned beyond words. "M-Ms. Alyssa, you knew that man was Mr. Damien?" Neil asked, disbelief etched into his voice. "Yes." Alyssa's reply was quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper. "We found out when Cyrus took Damien's cigarette butt for a paternity test."Mandy approached Alyssa, her shoulders trembling slightly. "So, you and Cyrus knew… and you both kept it from me?" Mandy said, her voice catching in her throat, tears welling up. Alyssa felt a sharp pang in her chest. "Mandy, I'm sorry. It was my decision. Cyrus had nothing to do with it."Mandy's tears fell freely now, her grief spilling out in raw sobs. "Do you know what it's been like for me all these years, thinking Damien was gone? Winston, Miley, Lyla, and Colene kept telling me to move on. I tried to accept that he was dead, that we'd never find his body. But I never did."Her vo

    The hospital ward was bathed in a dim, yellow glow from the bedside lamp. The silence was thick, yet the room held a strange warmth—an unfamiliar comfort that felt oddly familiar to Remy.Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to sit up. His eyes fell on Mandy, who was asleep beside his bed. Her hair was a mess, and her swollen eyes suggested she'd been crying. She was sound asleep. Remy stiffened. His breath quickened as he stared at her fragile figure. Slowly, he leaned forward, his fingers lifting slightly, tempted to reach out.Just as his hand hovered close, Mandy's lashes fluttered. In her sleep, she murmured, "Damien… Damien… I miss you so much…" Tears slipped down her cheeks, silent and unbidden.A pang tugged at Remy's heart. Without thinking, he brushed away her tears with his calloused fingers. The moment his skin touched hers, a jolt shot through him, sharp and electrifying. Pain throbbed at his temples, but beneath it was a warmth he didn't want to let g

    Justin's casual question hit Javier like a thunderclap. Shock rippled through him, freezing his expression. His voice trembled with fear as he barked, "What nonsense is that? Are you accusing me of causing Chester's death? I'm your father—how could you think I'd do such a thing?""It's not an accusation. Just the facts," Justin replied coolly, crossing his legs and savoring his tea with unsettling calm. "And I'm not condemning you. In fact, I understand why you did it. I'm facing the same dilemma now."Javier's breathing grew ragged. He had watched Justin grow from a child into the man before him—now a predator, circling with quiet menace."You were meant to be the heir as the eldest son," Justin continued, his voice smooth as silk. "But Grandpa favored Uncle Chester, handing him major projects, grooming him in plain sight. "Uncle Chester's reputation soon eclipsed yours. He was a natural leader, adept at business, with one fatal flaw—he was kind. Too kind. Unlike you."Justin

    Nonetheless, night had fallen by the time Justin arrived at Seaview Manor. On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible. Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully. He had never lost contact with Remy before. Justin's face was as dark as the night itself. The moment he stepped inside Seaview Manor, Rory approached with a solemn expression. He gave a slight bow before speaking. "Mr. Justin, what took you so long? Mr. Javier has been waiting.""I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back here yet?" A conflicted look came across Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. I doubt he'll want to see you anytime soon—or show up here.""Is that so? How disappointing."Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he se

    Jonah scoured every corner of the hotel, desperation clawing at his chest, but Julien was nowhere to be found. "Jonah!" Alyssa called out, breathless as she caught up to him. She grabbed his arm. "Calm down! I'll help you search for Jul!""I can't find him. He's gone," Jonah murmured, sinking to the floor. His tears mixed with sweat, creating dark patches on the ground. "Lyse… I fear… if I can't find Julien this time, I'll lose him forever."The agonizing thought of losing the love of his life pierced him. "No, you won't!" Alyssa gripped his arm tighter, her voice trembling with conviction. "If Jul had given up on you, he wouldn't have come here today. The fact that he showed up means he still cares."Jonah's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a pain too deep to hide. He shook his head slowly. "Julien came back for Jasper. He did it because he's loyal… because he's a good friend. Not because of me.""He does care!" Alyssa insisted. "If he didn't, he would've faced you without fli
