One could only imagine the shock Javier received upon learning about the truth behind Anne's decision. Standing frozen, he wore an expression of blank disbelief, grappling with the pain that threatened to crush him.He mumbled, "No. How could that be? How …" Even his cheeks were quivering.Javier's response reminded Newton of Jasper. Although Newton perceived Jasper to be more capable than Javier in every aspect, he noticed that the father and son shared a trait of obstinance—a refusal to admit to their foolish and absurd decisions."Anne requested that I keep this a secret from you because she wanted to leave in peace. She did not want you and Jasper to miss her." Newton shook his head remorsefully. "To be honest, I was blinded and selfish at that time. I did not care about her feelings and your relationship with her. I was only concerned about keeping Jasper in the family. "Never have I thought that Sophia would show up in your life out of nowhere. I was more surprised that you

Ben wondered, "But you saw it just now, didn't you? Mr. Javier still sided with Sophia. Maybe he hasn't—""Hmph. No. What he did was to protect his ego. No one knows my son better than myself." Newton leaned back on the couch and closed his eyes. "Now, it's only a matter of time before he gives up on Sophia. Reminding him of his love for Anne might push him in the right direction. After all, the dead usually carries more impact than the living. Learning about the truth will make him regret the past."…As the luxury car headed toward Seaview Manor, Javier sat in the seat, gripping the box tightly and bracing himself before opening it.The box had two layers. The first layer stored a tidy array of velvet pouches. With each pouch Javier opened, his heartache deepened. He saw the diamond ring he bought for the proposal. The diamond might have been considered tiny by today's standards, but it was a big deal 30 years ago. The emerald bracelet was his birthday gift to Anne, which he

Upon learning that she was being grounded, Sophia went stir-crazy at home, venting her anger on anyone she encountered."I'm sorry, Madam Sophia. This is Mr. Javier's order. We have to do as he instructed."Javier's secretary, Rory Odom, stared at her coldly. His tone revealed a hint of sarcasm as he said, "I suggest you go back to your room and don't make things difficult for us or yourself."After all, because of your actions, the entire Beckett Group is in chaos. Please don't make it worse for Mr. Javier.""How dare you!" With bloodshot eyes, Sophia slapped Rory across the face. "I'm the matriarch of the Beckett family! How dare you speak to me like that? You're just Javier's secretary!"Instead of being angry, Rory chuckled. "Indeed, even though I'm just a secretary, Mr. Javier has been generous to me. But aren't you also taking advantage of your status as Mr. Javier's wife to behave recklessly and abuse your subordinates?"Sophia was momentarily stunned but quickly regained

Sophia was in disbelief. How could this have happened?Sophia was nothing without her status as the Beckett Group's chairman's wife. No one would pay her any respect.It was precisely because she was Javier's wife that Jasper and Alyssa had been tiptoeing around her, making it impossible to target her directly.Jasper and Alyssa would undoubtedly tear her apart if she lost Javier's protection."From now on, you're not allowed to step out of Seaview Manor without my orders. If you dare to disobey, I'll send you abroad, and you won't set foot in Solana City again.""How can you be so unreasonable, Javier? I attended the funeral with good intentions to help clean up the aftermath!"It's Alyssa, that vicious bitch, who keeps attacking me. She wants to ruin Beckett Group. It's because of her that things have escalated to this point!" Sophia frantically defended herself."Do you think I'm a fool?"Javier no longer wanted to hear her nonsense. His tone was harsh and filled with hatred

"Also, you know about Lauren's situation. If I divorce, I'll definitely send Sophia abroad. The farther, the better. I fear that Lauren will not be able to bear the separation from her mother, and it may worsen her condition."Rory nodded in understanding, realizing the dilemma Javier was facing."I asked you to find out Jasper's whereabouts. Did you find him? Where has he gone?" Javier asked."Sorry, Mr. Javier. You know Mr. Jasper is quite skilled. If he doesn't want anyone to find him, no one can," Rory replied helplessly.Javier didn't say anything and dialed Jasper's number on his phone.After several attempts, Jasper finally answered."It's so late. Do you have something important?""Jasper, I—""If this is about me returning for a project meeting, you don't need to waste your breath. I won't go." Jasper's attitude was cold. There was no affection whatsoever in their exchange.Javier pressed his lips and asked in a low voice, "Jasper, do you have time tomorrow? Come with

Rory said, "Okay. I'll get it now."Only after Rory left did Javier dare to reveal his vulnerability. He slumped down. Guilt and pain swept over him like a storm, tormenting him in unspeakable ways.At this moment, his mind was chaotic, filled with various voices."I don't know when it started, but I've become someone who can't be separated from you.""Every morning, the first thing she thinks about is how she should die. But when she thinks of Jasper, she can't bear to leave her young son like that.""Even if my mother once loved you, the moment she leaped from Seaview Manor's balcony, she no longer does."Javier opened his eyes abruptly, his heart pounding uncontrollably.Just then, Rory returned with a glass of warm water."Rory, how much do you remember about Anne's situation 20 years ago?"Rory was startled for a second, then replied, "I have a good memory. Didn't you choose me as your secretary because of that? If you have any questions, just ask.""Back then, Anne had

Landon was shocked. His mouth was slightly agape for a while."Jasper, have you realized that you actually have a masochistic tendency? You've got the inclination to become a henpecked husband."At this rate, you'll have to surrender all your credit cards. Damn, will I be the one to foot the bill now every time we go out?""Had you not been the one who has been footing the bills whenever we went out before?" Jasper asked nonchalantly.Landon was rendered speechless.Indeed.Jasper was a complete homebody with no recreational hobbies other than work, exercise, and boxing. From what he remembered, Landon had always been the one initiating everything.He often visited Seaview Manor with a driver and bodyguards to take Jasper out. Jasper rarely took the initiative to plan anything.But Landon was happy with it and had no complaints.Although he lost his father at a young age, he knew he had received plenty of love from his family. On the contrary, Jasper seemed to have everything,

"But can Javier do the same? He's inherently a selfish person. He has never loved my mother. He only loves himself. I don't even deserve Lyse's forgiveness. It's impossible for him to get my mother's."Landon sighed softly, feeling sorry for his buddy.At this moment, a phone call interrupted the heavy atmosphere."How's the situation?" Landon put the call on speaker and asked eagerly."We've got a problem, Mr. Harper." The person sent to track Jeffrey sounded anxious."Just as Mr. Beckett expected, Jeffrey does have a local gang supporting him in Tsulu. We found out that this group is notorious in the area, colluding with Tsulu's officials and merchants."Drug trafficking, arms smuggling, murder ... They're involved in almost every kind of crime. Over the years, they have grown deep roots, and even Tsulu's government and royal family can't do anything about them."Jasper and Landon exchanged serious glances. They knew the situation would be tricky but didn't expect it to be thi

When Axel heard the news, he immediately returned to the city where his organization was based. Without even reporting back to work, he booked the earliest red-eye flight to Cyrris. His eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep, and when he emerged from the arrival gates, an ominous air surrounded him. A black luxury car awaited him at the exit.Standing in front of the car were Jasper and Xavier, who had been waiting anxiously for his arrival.Axel's gaze locked onto Jasper's fiery eyes. His presence radiated fury, unrestraint, and a barely contained viciousness. A strong gust of wind swept through the terminal. Snow danced in the air, tangling both Jasper's and Axel's hair into disarray."Let's talk in the car, Axel," Jasper said in a low, measured voice.Red-eyed, Axel insisted, "I need to find my wife right now." "That's exactly why I'm here. Get in the car, and we'll talk." Jasper turned on his heel. His tone grew colder. "But let's be honest—you won't find her no matter ho

Jasper wanted to console Alyssa but found himself at a loss for words. So, he remained silent. "Disappointed, aren't you?" Alyssa sniffled as she smiled bitterly."Not at all." Perhaps he had been expecting too much. As a woman, she was intelligent, capable, and a strategist for victory. Beyond that, she boldly stepped forward to fight against the dark forces. She was strong and perfect as she was—why should he expect her to be anything more?Yet, seeing Alyssa's vulnerable side unsettled him. Something tugged at his heartstrings, a deep ache he couldn't ignore."I found it! I found Ms. Altman's cell phone!" With more manpower and better visibility as the sun rose, it didn't take long to locate Amber's bloodied phone. "Ambs…"Alyssa's face drained of color as terror gripped her at the sight of the bloodstained device. Jasper, on the other hand, remained composed. He tried powering on the phone, and to their surprise, it turned on. "What's the password?" Jasper asked g

"Five times more potent than the previous version? Are you sure it's safe for Remy to consume this?" Sheryl picked up the pill, unease flickering across her face. As much as she despised Remy, she couldn't deny his prowess as a fighter and his value as Justin's right-hand man. Having him around would certainly ease Justin's workload, prompting her to double-check."It won't kill him, but it won't be pleasant either. Don't worry—it's temporary," Justin replied, a sinister smile curling his lips. He continued nonchalantly, "When he takes the pill, his adrenaline will spike, flooding him with energy while his muscles tense. He'll feel both pain and euphoria. Then, it will fade, leaving him dependent on the drug moving forward." The implication was clear to Sheryl. Justin intended to control Remy through addiction. "Remy wasn't born for the shadows," Justin continued, his gaze darkened. "He's just a victim of post-traumatic amnesia, his nervous system subdued with sedatives and anes

"Got it, Mr. Harper!" Harper Group's subordinates acknowledged before swiftly dispersing. "I'm going to search for Amber too," Alyssa said, turning to leave.Jasper caught her arm. "It's freezing. Go wait in the car." Landon chimed in, "Lyse, listen to Jasper. Just wait in the car. We'll search for Amber.""No—I have to come too!" Alyssa sniffled. The sharp wind stung her face, leaving her nose raw and crimson, her eyes watering until they puffed into tender, swollen crescents. "Amber's in trouble because of me. I was careless—it's all my fault!""Lyse…" Landon's heart sank at her remorseful expression.Jasper's gaze softened as he studied Alyssa's pale face. "Her disappearance isn't your fault."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes as she shook her head. "Amber means everything to Axel. If anything happens to her, I won't be able to face him. I don't deserve to be his sister. Please, let me come with you."Jasper and Landon failed to dissuade her. Reluctantly, they agreed. Alyssa

After studying Sheryl for a moment, Remy turned and left."M-Ms. Gillis, are you okay?" One of Sheryl's subordinates came forward to help her up."Useless bastard! Why didn't you step in when he hit me earlier?" Sheryl's voice trembled with fury as her gaze fell on the crimson stains marring the pristine snow.Stammering, the subordinate replied, "R-Remy acted too quickly. Everyone in the organization knows how good of a fighter he is. None of us stood a chance against him!""S-Something wasn't right about him tonight." Sheryl watched Remy's retreating figure disappear into the distance, her voice dropping to a menacing murmur. "I need to report this to Mr. Justin in person immediately."Inside his car, Remy gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands but made no move to drive.Closing his eyes, he felt a suffocating sensation rise in his throat, as though he were drowning in an endless, hopeless sea. He was just a speck, sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss.A shar

With a piercing gaze, Sheryl glared at Remy, who stood in front of her car with an air of frigidity around him. The temptation to ram her car into the crestfallen man was almost irresistible, but she didn't dare. Remy was Justin's right-hand man, and even her audacity had limits. Instead, Sheryl pulled her white coat snugly around her, stepped out of the car with feigned composure, and strode toward him. Hostility crackled between them as their eyes locked.Sheryl broke the silence. "Remy, is there nothing you'd like to update me about?" she asked with a sinister look in her eyes. Stiffly, Remy asked, "Where did you take that woman?" "How shameless of you to question me. Mr. Justin was wise to send me as backup. Otherwise, Amber would have escaped without a trace!"Gritting her teeth, Sheryl took a step closer to Remy. "Is this how you handle tasks entrusted by Mr. Justin? The unstoppable Remy, brought to his knees by a wild brat? Or did you let her go intentionally? Are yo

"Jameson and Carl have been eliminated. Who else could be targeting Amber?"A sharp glint flashed in Jasper's eyes as a thought struck him. "Could it be Justin or Sheryl?" he asked, his voice low and tense.He recalled seeing Justin in the living room earlier that evening, wide awake instead of resting. Was Justin waiting for something? Or perhaps, provoking him in subtle defiance?"They are the only ones I can think of with a grudge against Amber." Alyssa's anxiousness made her voice tremble. "Having worked for Jameson for years, Amber must have visited Mosgravia multiple times to meet with Sir—who is, in fact, Justin. "Justin wouldn't have met anyone else besides Jameson. But how could he leave no trace after all those interactions? Amber must have figured out his true identity. And Justin—he must have realized who she is, even with her changed appearance."Jasper's expression darkened. "So he decided to eliminate her as a precaution."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes, threaten

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
