Alyssa Taylor kept her true identity a secret during her marriage to Jasper Beckett. She thought her burning passion would warm his stone-cold heart, but after three years as promised, all he gives her is a divorce agreement. Disappointed, Alyssa goes through with the divorce and goes back to being the scion of the wealthy Taylor family.Not only is she filthy rich, but she’s also a skilled doctor, elite hacker, and champion fencer. At an auction, she spends money like water to embarrass the other woman who ruined her marriage, and in the business world, she snaps up all of her ex-husband’s deals. Stunned, Jasper questions her, “Alyssa, do you have to be so ruthless?” In answer, she only smiles and says, “This is nothing but a tiny fraction of what you did to me before!”
View MoreWinston suddenly felt moisture seep from between his legs. Warm liquid trickled down his pants leg and to the floor.Neil was stunned to his core. But he swiftly recovered and yelled out, "The meeting is over. All of you are dismissed immediately!"Winston slowly looked down at the small puddle of water by his feet, mind blank. He'd always lived his life proud and lustrous, never in such a pathetic and hideous state.A great wave of shame consumed Winston, washing away the fear and pain from his illness. As the head of his family and company, he felt incredibly humiliated right now.Just then, two rows of bodyguards filed into the room and got everyone out as soon as possible before securing the entrance.Dominic sneakily pulled out his phone, wanting to record this humiliating moment. But before he could even start recording a video, pain shot through his wrist, making him release the phone.Dominic yelped in pain, stumbling backward as he clasped his injured arm. Standing in fr
"Fishy?" Jasper frowned.Alyssa said, "It's completely normal for your brother to get his hands on the medication. He had been in Mosgravia for many years. One word from him can get Jesseltons to partner with the Beckett Group."A dark look rested on Alyssa's face. "However, how did Jamiper get his hands on it?"Jasper was caught off guard by the question."The Schmidt family abandoned him. He had built his life in Kontina since the beginning. Why would he have any connections in Mosgravia?"Alyssa felt more unsettled the more she thought about it. "I have a wild theory. I'm wondering if Jameson knew your brother or at least had met your brother before."Jasper was about to object to her theory, but he remembered that Sheryl and Jameson had the same fragrance.Drawing conclusions about Sheryl and Jameson knowing each other from this fact seemed premature. Nevertheless, doubts continued to nag at him.Suddenly, hurried knocks echoed in the room.Jasper and Alyssa exchanged glan
Winston frowned and coughed lightly. However, he didn't stop Alyssa. The smile on Dominic's face slowly faded. He gritted his teeth hard.Alyssa looked down, then slowly shifted her gaze from the bottom up. Her red lips curled into a contemptuous smile. "Also, I can't help but remind you, Uncle Dominic, when you attend an important event next time, please ask Renee to match your clothes for you. Red and green make you look like a walking Christmas tree."Winston cleared his throat, hinting at Alyssa to stop. Dominic, who was wearing a dark red suit with a dark green tie, froze.…After that debacle, Winston and Dominic entered the meeting room to start the meeting.Alyssa and Jasper waited at Winston's office.Alyssa lay horizontally on the couch and used Jasper's thigh as a pillow. She stared at Jasper's handsome face with thin lips and deep eyes. She was laughing hard."The memory of the horrified expression on Dominic's face when I unleashed my biting remarks fills me wit
"Dad, I'm not letting you go! You'd better stay here!" Alyssa flared up and blocked her father's way."How dare you! I'm your father. You have no right to tell me what to do. You are in no place to make decisions for the Taylor family."Winston and Alyssa found themselves at a stalemate, unable to find common ground.Mandy panicked and froze where she was.It was the first time Jasper had experienced a situation like this after getting together with Alyssa. He didn't know how to comfort and how to mediate this argument."Dad, you…" Alyssa felt a sense of suffocation. She clenched her fists so hard that they'd turned pale. "Alyssa, if you want to be a good daughter, please don't anger me anymore. Please don't force me into this yelling match with you."Winston had drenched his nightwear in sweat. Even panting took up a lot of his energy. The sight of his beloved daughter slowly turned blurry in his eyes. "Please just let me do what I want this one time. Is it that hard?"…It
Neil walked over to open the door and received the shock of his life. "Mr. Beckett?""Mr. Benton."Jasper stood at the entrance coldly. He was panting, indicating that he had rushed here. "Is Uncle Winston and Alyssa in there? I brought the drugs."When Alyssa heard his voice, she immediately got up and walked toward him. An uncontrollable sense of longing surged in her heart."Jasper!"Alyssa rushed into Jasper's wide embrace. The emotions she held in for so long had turned into tears and began streaming down.Jasper eagerly stretched his sturdy yet shaky arms to hug her. His eyes reddened. "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long, Alyssa. The wait wasn't in vain. I have the drugs."He quickly reached into the pocket of his overcoat and retrieved a long box. "There are six of them in here. It's more than what you received the last time. This should cover Uncle Winston for a while, in case he needs it."Alyssa took the box from him. Her heart was churning as she was ove
Justin kept to his word. Jasper received the drugs after one week.Jasper, who was hosting an important meeting in the Beckett Group, was on edge.When the meeting ended, he sprung up from his seat and darted out the doors like lightning.The management was left at their seats, exchanging glances."What is wrong with Mr. Beckett?""Haha! I think he had to relieve himself. The meeting was so long. I wouldn't have held it in if I were him. His kidneys are such champions!" "Not to mention his bladder too!"…Today, the KS Group had an important board meeting that required Winston to attend.However, Jameson's drugs ran out, and Julien was taken away by the Lovelace family. So, Winston grew more helpless.The effects of the drugs had worn off. He started feeling his body weakening. He couldn't stop yawning. His nose was runny, his head was spinning, and his vision was blurry. He didn't even manage to eat dinner last night because he had fallen into a deep slumber.He considered
"D-Did something happen?" Amber wasn't concerned for Jameson. She just needed to have everything under control to protect herself."Sigh! Mr. Schmidt went to see Mr. Justin and found out that Mr. Justin sent the drug that Mr. Schmidt failed to deliver to the Taylors. All these while, Mr. Justin had never interfered with Mr. Schmidt and Ms. Alyssa's business."Now, at this juncture, he decided to show up as the good guy. Wouldn't this paint Mr. Schmidt, the one who used the drug to threaten Mr. Winston, as a petty man? "Ms. Alyssa would hate and despise him even more. Mr. Justin is throwing Mr. Schmidt under the bus to make himself look good. Mr. Schmidt had every right to be outraged!"Comparisons are odious.Jameson had a well-thought-out plan, but Justin's interference had painted him like a fool."Mr. Justin is not doing this for Mr. Jasper but for Ms. Alyssa."Carl sighed, "Mr. Schmidt had suspected Mr. Justin had feelings for Ms. Alyssa multiple times. From the looks of th
Amber's pupils trembled in fear, and her slender legs under her skirt shook violently."Last time I visited him, I felt like his eyes were all over you."Jameson grabbed her chin forcefully, lifting it with enough force to crush her jawbone. "I can confirm he's taken an interest in you."It seems he isn't as refined as I thought. Since he can't obtain the real person, having a fake around for a feast of the eyes and to satisfy his desires might not be a bad choice."Amber's eyes were red-rimmed, with tears glistening as they emitted a plea of helplessness. "Mr. Schmidt... please... please don't send me to Mr. Justin."I've been loyal to you for so many years... Please don't send me away... I beg you!""What value do you have?"Jameson, who had been holding back his anger since his return, unleashed it all on Amber. He pushed her forcefully in the chest.Amber stumbled back two steps, banging into the wall with a dull thud. Her back felt cold and painful."Carl, pack her things
In the darkness, Jonah's neck and earlobes flushed red.His breathing became heavy as he slowly raised his hand. He landed his warm palm on Julien's abdomen, gently caressing the smooth skin."Do you still think this is a dream?"Under Jonah's touch, Julien trembled as if electrified. Finally, he leaned in and grabbed Jonah's face, kissing him fiercely.Their silhouettes intertwined, filling the room with their kissing sounds."Jonah, can you let me be with you? I don't want anything. Just let me be with you. I don't mind, even if we can never be public."Jonah's dark eyes shimmered with profound affection.He couldn't hide it or contain himself any longer. He knew exactly what he was doing. At this moment, he was more awake than ever before."From now on, I'm yours. Yours alone."With tears in his eyes, Julien nestled into Jonah's bare yet strong chest. He felt a happiness he had never felt before.…Lately, Jameson had been busy dealing with the troubles brought to the com
