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

Nina paced back and forth in the garden after speaking to Alyssa on the phone. She was in distress.This was the first time she had ever done something like this in her life. Her heart wasn't strong enough to take it.She returned to the villa anxiously.All of a sudden, her heart stopped for a second. Jasper, who hadn't returned for a long time, entered the villa."Mr. Beckett … Mr. Beckett!"Nina broke into a sweat. Her face paled as she ran after Jasper. She went in front of him to block him.She had been working as a maid here for many years, but she never dared to talk to him. She had no idea where she got the courage to charge toward him.Jasper frowned slightly. "What can I do for you?""I-I … You …" Nina cursed herself for getting tongue-tied now."You can take your time." Jasper looked at her lightly.He had never had this level of patience before. Now, Alyssa had completely influenced him. He was more easygoing and rational now.Nina bit her lip hard. Her face redd

Jasper returned to his study and waited for Xavier. As he smoked by the window with a contemplative look, Nina's words echoed in his mind, making his heart race.Did that mean the maid had been secretly in touch with Alyssa? Why?He mused, "Alyssa, what exactly do you plan to do? Why do you always make me worry?"He answered when he heard a knock on the door. Taking another drag of his cigarette, he flicked the cigarette ashes with his calloused fingers.Xavier shuffled into the room, shut the door, and handed Jasper a note, explaining, "Mr. Beckett, this is the address that Nina wanted to give you. She'll meet Ms. Alyssa here tonight."Jasper felt his chest tighten, and even his fingers shook as he accepted the note. He cast a quick glance at it, immediately memorizing the address.Then, he questioned, "What else did Nina tell you?"Xavier shook his head. "Mr. Beckett, I feel that she's spying on this family for Ms. Alyssa.""She is a spy without a doubt," replied Jasper, clut

Betty raised a brow leisurely and asked Jeffrey, "Does my mom want to kick Nina out of the family or get rid of her for good?""Madam Sophia wants Nina gone for good to avoid any future trouble," Jeffrey replied with indifference.Betty gasped, "She's ruthless!""If Madam weren't heartless, you wouldn't be enjoying a comfortable and pampered life.""Hmph. Even if Mom did nothing, I would still have enjoyed the same life." Betty dismissed Jeffrey's statement.Jeffrey looked at her through the rearview mirror with disdain. "Are you sure, Ms. Betty?"Betty was upset at Jeffrey's contempt. In her eyes, Sophia had resorted to underhanded tactics to marry Javier out of desperation to elevate her status as a mistress.But Betty considered herself different. She didn't need to lift a finger to secure her position. She had been born into wealth and status as Javier Beckett's daughter.Fed up with Sophia constantly branding her as dumb, Betty was determined to prove her capabilities. She

When Nina had been speaking, Alyssa and Sean had heard heavy footsteps approaching.Sean warily shielded Alyssa and Nina behind him, clenching his fists as the muscles beneath his suit tightened.Nina was in shock, but Alyssa calmly fixed her gaze on the three men in black in front of them as she tightened her hold on Nina.She swiftly examined the leader, Jeffrey, and immediately sensed that he was a tough nut based on her years of experience.Sean gritted his teeth and asked, "Who are you?"Jeffrey tilted his head and looked past Sean to stare at Alyssa. He said flatly, "You must be Ms. Alyssa.""I am," she replied firmly."You're indeed a beauty, as the rumors say," Jeffrey remarked, flashing her an ugly smile. "What a pity."Alyssa clenched her jaw as she trembled in rage at his audacity. She growled, "Are you working for Sophia Kirkman? Did she send you here to kill me?""Ms. Alyssa, you could have lived a comfortable life, but you had to get into trouble and poke your

Jasper's phone rang at that moment. The caller ID was unknown. He recalled that he had asked Xavier to share his personal phone number with Nina just in case of an emergency. He rarely received any calls on his personal phone, which meant that the caller must be Nina.Bracing for what he sensed might be bad news, he swiftly answered, "Hello?""Mr. Beckett, save Ms. Alyssa. Save her! We're—Ah—" Nina abruptly dropped her phone as she screamed.Holding his breath, he stared at the dark screen as his heart pounded wildly. Alyssa's name echoed urgently in his mind. With beads of sweat forming on his forehead, he raced toward the park while calling Xavier. He said urgently, "Something's happened to Alyssa. Send backup my way right now."…The sounds of a scuffle rang through the park as Sean expended every ounce of energy to fend off the attackers, desperately delivering punches and kicks.Despite his swift moves, Sean found himself overpowered by a group of men armed with knives

"Ms. Alyssa!" Turning white, Nina screamed and shut her eyes in fear.Alyssa was overwhelmed by fear, and her eyes wavered as she surrendered to fate.At that moment, all her senses shut down. Scenes from her life flashed across her eyes, and they were all memories of Jasper.She recalled their memorable first encounter 13 years ago, their days on the Luminara battlefields, their marriage, divorce, and holding on to each other amid a landslide.She took a deep breath, and tears streamed down her face. People always say that one faced their real self before dying. Was she still in love with Jasper, or did she hate him so much that she thought of him before dying?She heard a whiz, a sound that caused her eardrums to reverberate. Death didn't arrive as she had expected.Caught by surprise, Jeffrey felt a sharp pain in his wrist. Before he knew it, someone had kicked the dagger in his hand away, making it drop into the pond.Alyssa turned around and saw the angry Jasper come to h

However, Alyssa was pulled out of her thoughts as Jasper engaged in a fierce brawl with Jeffrey. Each punch he delivered was forceful and rapid.The three other men ran toward Jasper, aiming their knives at him. They were determined to kill him. There was no other option."Jasper, look out! Behind you!" Alyssa shouted, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.Since Jasper hadn't fully recovered, facing Jeffrey alone would be a daunting task for him. Now, things were worse with the trio of attackers closing in on him.Not only that, Jeffrey was a merciless man whose each move aimed to kill.Jasper was empowered when he heard Alyssa's warning. Without looking back, he grabbed the attacker's wrist and snapped it. The attacker's agonizing scream pierced through the night.Alyssa's heart was pounding wildly. Memories of Jasper's valor on the battlefield flooded her mind.In the next instant, she watched as he decisively stabbed the attacker. As a doctor, she realized that Jasper hadn'

This time, the injection did not bring the excruciating pain that once made Amber wish for death. Her chapped lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face as she gazed deeply into Remy's eyes. He, too, looked at her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Between them, no words were needed."Damien… Thank you…" Though her voice was barely audible, the weight of her words sank deep into Remy's heart. For once, he did not object to being called Damien.The truth was, ever since Amber had been taken, an unbearable pressure had settled over him, making each breath feel like a punishment—every day since had been plagued by self-reproach and regret.If he hadn't stopped her that night and let her go sooner, could she have avoided Sheryl? Could she have been spared the torture and humiliation?"You should know that those who enter this place never leave. Most don't even make it out alive."Remy's gaze was unwavering. Taking advantage of the surveillance blind spot, he placed his

"Mr. Lexington," the doctor greeted respectfully, lowering his head slightly. Everyone at the base knew who Sheryl and Remy were. They were the ones in charge, the decision-makers. So, everyone obeyed their orders without question. To the staff unaware of the facility's true purpose, Sheryl and Remy stood at the pinnacle of the hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, someone more powerful lurked in the shadows."How has she been these past few days?" Remy asked, his expression unreadable."She's had some adverse reactions, but there are no signs of organ failure yet. Honestly, I'm surprised. She looks frail, but her body is incredibly resilient—stronger than some men, even."The doctor scoffed. "But I'm not sure if she'll make it past her fourth injection today. Last month, four test subjects didn't survive beyond that point. Their bodies have already been sent to the incinerator." Remy's jaw tensed. His voice was husky as he said, "As I've instructed, this woman must be kept alive.

Xavier seethed as he took in the insincere smile on Justin's face. Deep down, he was cursing him with every profanity imaginable. "Whatever makes you happy."Ignoring Justin's dark gaze, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead as he strode past him.Out of nowhere, Justin chuckled and asked, "Did you really think you had people on your side during the board meeting?"Jasper halted, his eyes narrowing. "Grandpa tried his best to shield you, but his health is failing by the day. How much longer do you think an old man can protect you?"Lowering his gaze, Justin idly adjusted the ruby cufflinks on his sleeves. His voice was casual yet cutting. "And Lyse—after how ruthlessly you discarded her, do you still believe she'll stand by you no matter what? That she'll fight alongside you like before?"The intense midday sun accentuated the sharp, aloof, and pallid features of Jasper's face as he stood, unyielding, in its glare. His pulse quickened. Finally, he answered, his voice a low rasp. "R

As the board meeting concluded, the crowd gradually dispersed.News of Justin securing his position as president and Alyssa joining the board quickly spread through Beckett Group.After the meeting, Alyssa escorted Newton back to Crescent Bay while Jasper remained at the corporation to handle some matters.With Xavier accompanying him, Jasper strode toward the chairman's office, his expression cold and unreadable.Nearby, a few employees huddled together, whispering."Psst! Do you think Alyssa joining the board means she's teaming up with Jasper to take down our new president?""People have been saying they broke up since they haven't been seen together for a while," another speculated."But at the press conference, Alyssa openly condemned Mr. Justin. That looked like she was siding with Jasper. So, are they still together or not?""Come on, to people like them, personal feelings don't matter—only their own interests do. Even if they broke up, they can still work together if it

When Jonah reached the bedside, he leaned in slowly, giving Julien an unobstructed view of his tanned skin, well-defined abs, and that devastatingly captivating face. Reclining against the headboard, Julien found himself lost in Jonah's eyes. His breath hitched, and his mind momentarily blanked as Jonah's mesmerizing gaze locked onto him. What could he do? His heart still betrayed him, a frantic drumbeat against his ribs. He was a fool—a pathetic fool. Jonah braced his arms on either side of Julien's head, his dark eyes overflowing with a raw, possessive affection. It was as if he sought to consume Julien—just as he had last night."Julien, does it still hurt—" "Fuck you!" Julien's bloodshot eyes blazed as he swung his hand, landing a sharp slap across Jonah's face. The illusion of his frailty shattered. A crimson handprint bloomed on Jonah's cheek in a split second, the flesh puffing up visibly. But the sting barely registered. Not when the ache in Jonah's chest was alr

Justin frowned as a hint of surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He had assumed Newton's unannounced appearance at the board meeting—along with Alyssa's involvement—was a coordinated effort with Jasper to overthrow him as president. After mentally running through hundreds of countermeasures, the one possibility he hadn't considered was that everything would proceed smoothly in his favor. Javier was equally stunned, though this outcome aligned with his desires. Today, Justin wasn't merely his son but a constant shadow looming over him, a silent predator watching his every move and reminding him that his past actions weren't completely buried. Instead, this secret loomed like a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment, obliterating everything he'd built. And the person holding the detonator was Justin—his eldest son whom he had trusted above all others. With a dim gaze, Javier watched Justin rise to his feet amid the applause. Suddenly, Justin's voice seemed distant,

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
