Alyssa stopped teasing Cyrus and adopted a serious expression. "Cyrus, has the phone been repaired?""The repair was challenging, but my colleagues in the technical department are professionals."Cyrus turned to Jasper. "Mr. Beckett, we'll need your statement later.""Sure, I came here to cooperate with your investigation."Jasper's eyes softly lingered on Alyssa's profile, unable to pull away.Alyssa wasn't oblivious to his gaze. She pursed her rosy lips subtly, deliberately avoiding his intense stare.Then, the trio entered the police station. Even though it was night, the sight of Alyssa and Jasper walking in together drew astonished glances from the officers.They were an outstanding pair, and it was hard to find a couple like them. It didn't seem right that they weren't married.In the interrogation room, Cyrus brought forward the repaired phone.Alyssa's long lashes trembled slightly as she gently picked up the phone with the broken screen.On the lit screen was a photo

The atmosphere suddenly became strange.Alyssa stared at Jasper's face. The gentle smile on his face at this moment was something she had never seen before.She cleared her throat, hastily averting her gaze. She dared not lock eyes with his dazzling ones, afraid that another glance might reveal some unspeakable secret.She noticed that he had indeed changed a lot.The previous Jasper had been cold, distant, and aloof. On the contrary, the current Jasper seemed to have melted and surrounded her with a reassuring sense of security."Ahem ... Um …"Cyrus, who was single and allergic to romance, couldn't stand it any longer. So he chimed in, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere."It's just a suit. Why wash it? Our family has a big business. We can afford to compensate for a piece of clothing. Lyse, just buy a new one for Mr. Beckett. I'll pay for it.""Thank you, Chief Cyrus," Jasper said with a slight smile, appearing calm."Cyrus, are you sure you want to compensate for it?"Alyss

"It was the last thing she said to me."Upon hearing that, all three of them fell into a heavy silence, lowering their heads.The poor woman. In her last moments, she hadn't thought about her life but about how to reveal the truth and let justice prevail.Cyrus frowned, thinking out loud, "So Nina's death should also be related to her knowledge of this secret.""Yes. Otherwise, the cunning and careful Madam Sophia wouldn't suddenly lose her head and send an assassin to kill Nina, trying to silence her." Alyssa clenched her fists in anger, her eyes reddening."She has quite the guts. She actually dared to target you!"Recalling what happened to Alyssa that night, Cyrus couldn't contain his anger and slammed the table. "You have five brothers and a father who's filthy rich. How dare she go after you? Even without Dad's help, any one of us could kill her without her knowing."At this moment, Jasper's eyes turned cold.What had happened to make Sophia act so recklessly?Alyssa s

Cyrus was also stunned. He hadn't expected this incident to be related to Javier's former wife, Anne Bartley.Her death was a confusing case from years ago. If brought to light, it would undoubtedly lead to a grim fate for Sophia.No wonder Sophia had been so desperate to kill Nina."Jasper." Alyssa gazed at Jasper with concern.At this moment, Jasper was staring at the phone with dark eyes. The tears in his eyes were more heartbreaking and hard to look at than the broken screen."What do you mean by no one? There's Liana!"This matter involved Liana too?Alyssa felt a chill down her spine.It was evident that Jasper's mother's death hadn't been an accident but a carefully orchestrated plot by Sophia.When Alyssa had been married to Jasper, she had asked Rosie about Anne's death. However, Rosie had always been hesitant to talk about it and had kept the details about it a secret.Rosie had mentioned that Jasper didn't like anyone probing into Anne's death.She had also said t

In the urgency of the moment, Alyssa exerted all her strength and wrapped her arms around Jasper from behind, securing his tense waist tightly."Jasper! Lyse is right!"Cyrus also stepped forward, blocking Jasper's way. He looked into the latter's pale face. The sadness in his eyes made Cyrus feel deeply distressed."Taking a life demands a price. You're a good person. Why give your life for these wicked animals? If you really want revenge for your mother, you have to stay rational and clear-headed."Yes, Sophia deserves to die. But if you take action, it just means one life for another. Is it worth it for that bitch? If something happens to you, what about Lyse? Have you thought about her?"Cyrus had said so much, but it seemed like only the last two sentences acted like a strong and effective sedative for Jasper.Alyssa was exerting all her strength on Jasper's back. She closed her eyes, tightly holding onto his waist. Even though her face was soaked with cold sweat, she presse

Too much had happened that night.Even Cyrus, a professional police officer, couldn't fully digest it. He had initially wanted Jasper to go home and rest. Yet Jasper was extremely stubborn and insisted on providing his statement.His current condition wasn't good at all.Seaview Manor was a place that brought him unbearable grief and hatred. It was now somewhere he couldn't bring himself to stay.But if he went to Newton's place, he feared he wouldn't be able to hold back his emotions and might break down in front of Newton. That would make the old man worry.Jasper stood at the entrance of the police station in a daze and suddenly forced a bitter smile.The president of Beckett Group, who was worth tens of billions, was now like a lost soul with nowhere to go.It was pitiful, ridiculous, and truly tragic."You can stay at my place tonight," Alyssa said in a gentle tone, making Jasper spin around and stare into her eyes in disbelief.He even thought that he might be hearing th

At this moment, for the first time in his life, Jasper felt a sense of vanity. He suddenly wanted to take a picture and send it to Landon."Who said only you can come here? Look, I'm here too!" he thought."Jasper, what are you looking at?"Alyssa glanced at him with surprise. "Do you know that the look in your eyes just now was like a thief's?""Sorry." Jasper quickly withdrew his gaze, feeling like he had lost control again."Except for the last room on the left on the second floor, you can go into any other room you like. The fridge in the kitchen should have some ingredients Sean left there. If you want to eat, make it yourself. I don't have a chef here," Alyssa said calmly, turning to go upstairs.“Why can't I go into that room?” Jasper asked foolishly."Because that's my bedroom."Alyssa suddenly stopped, looking back at him with a faint smile."Don't worry. I don't have any secrets that can't be seen, nor do I have any old lovers that I can't forget. If you want to visi

"I'm going upstairs."Suddenly, Alyssa felt a weight on her back, and her body leaned forward sharply.Jasper hugged her tightly from behind, enveloping her entirely. He wished he could meld her into his body.His firm and warm chest pressed against her slender back. His intense heartbeat pounded into her, making her head dizzy. A soft and tingling sensation spread from her back to her chest."Jasper," Alyssa called hoarsely as her breathing became rapid.There was a clear sense of resistance in her tone, but this time, she didn't struggle."How could it not be worth mentioning? I won't allow you to say that."Jasper tightened his embrace, his arms holding onto her fragile waist. Meanwhile, his hot breath sprayed onto her neck. "20 years ago, I lost the most important person in my life."20 years later, I found the only woman in my life. I don't want to lose you again. You're everything to me. Lyse, after losing you, every day I live feels like hell."Death wasn't frightening.

"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

Beckett Group was, in essence, Javier's heart and soul, forged from his own labor. "Justin set me up, framed me for drug addiction, and bribed my primary physician to give false testimony—all so he could drag me down. The fact that he dared to target me like this means he's willing to betray anyone."Jasper took a deep breath, forcing down the rage roiling inside him as Javier remained silent. "Fine. Even if you insist this is just a family matter, Justin's reputation is already in ruins, and the corporation's stock prices are fluctuating. Are you really going to stand by him, even now?""Justin has explained everything to me. He wasn't aware of the bribery. That female doctor who worked for him acted on her own. Besides, she's been arrested. The backlash against Justin will settle in time…"Jasper listened, his face unreadable, but his heart clenched painfully. A lump rose in his throat, suffocating him.He had lost his mother at a young age, but he had never longed for his fa
