Chapter 102

Author: Ginger Sue
Alyssa could stomach the divorce, but she would never want to lose to the Becketts.

When Alyssa left the patient's room, she put on a pair of sunglasses to hide the fire in her eyes.

She called Axel. He answered the call and yelped, "Lyse, you finally remember me!"

Axel sounded cloying and begrudged. "You probably didn't know this, but Silas laughed at me and said you were giving me the cold shoulder. I freaked out! Fuck! I will never lose out to that prick!"

"You are all my brothers. Why would you fight for my favor? Don't make me sound like a playgirl, please. I'm not Cleopatra."

Speechless, she fell silent before telling him in a hushed voice, "Axel, may I get your help on something?"

"Oh my god! What's with that tone of yours? I'm done for! Lyse, tell me, do you not love me anymore? Is our relationship cooling down?" Axel, ever the drama queen, turned into the melancholic lead of a soap opera.

He continued, "Why do you sound formal with me? It looks like I should go back t

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2487

    A vicious gleam flickered in Justin's eyes. He cast a brief glance at Alyssa, who had her back turned to him and Rafe, before lowering his voice. "Let's talk about this another time." "Why wait? Alyssa spun around suddenly, her tone sharp. "Is it because I'm in the way, Mr. Beckett? You can't talk freely with me here?"A faint smile curved her lips. "It seems Mr. Beckett and I are merely collaborators, not true partners. I suppose you and Mr. Gentry have plenty of secrets between you—ones you'd rather keep from me."Rafe let out a dry laugh, darting a cautious glance at Justin. "That's quite an exaggeration, Ms. Alyssa."But Alyssa had already pieced things together. Outwardly, Rafe was the government official and should've been the one with higher standing. Yet in reality, Justin was the one in control.Justin's evasiveness about the research center confirmed it for her—there was something hidden beneath the surface, something murky, perhaps even illicit. Otherwise, why couldn

    After hearing that, Alyssa did not refuse further. She knew this would come up again even if she refused now. Justin might appear carefree, but he was actually stubborn and malicious deep down. He would stop at nothing to get his way. Moreover, Alyssa had accepted Justin's help so Winston could recover soon. It would be too narrow-minded of her to turn him down over such a trivial invitation. …At 6:00 pm sharp, Alyssa's luxury car glided slowly into Seaview Manor. She gazed out the window at the familiar sight, reminded of the times when she and Jasper had lived here as a married couple. The moments they shared were bitter, sorrowful, and happy.Tears welled up automatically, and she lowered her eyes to conceal the sorrow. Suddenly, she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned to the man next to her, surprised, and saw him presenting a clean, nice-smelling, white handkerchief. "I wouldn't have arranged this dinner at home if I'd known it would make you feel so uncomfortable to

    News of Beckett Group and KS Group joining forces and amicably agreeing to collaborate on Project A5 spread across the entire country. It was excellent news for Beckett Group, and KS Group's share price surged, hitting the daily limit.Although Alyssa had stepped back from competing for Project A5, she still led KS Group in an impressive campaign. Her name became widely recognized, not only in Solana City but nationwide.Yet her heart was heavy, and she felt no inclination to celebrate.As the president of KS Group, she had not prioritized the company's interests. Instead, she had allowed personal motives to influence her decisions. For Winston's sake, she couldn't refuse Justin's offer. Furthermore, in order to expose his schemes and reclaim everything Jasper had lost, she had no choice but to temporarily set aside the company's benefit.Her goal was to infiltrate Justin's inner circle by gaining his trust, hoping he would lead her into the dark, filthy core of his business op

    While Alyssa smiled sweetly, she was sharp enough to notice that Mandy didn't look too well. As she stepped into the room, she asked softly, "Mandy, are you feeling unwell?" Mandy ran her hand over her cold cheeks and let out a bitter chuckle. "Winston is severely ill. I probably don't look too good because I haven't been sleeping well lately."Alyssa was not only perceptive but had also overheard Mandy's earlier phone conversation through the door.She'd caught fragments of phrases like "trailing them" and "lost them". Suddenly, it all clicked.Stepping closer, she whispered, "Mandy, are you worried about Damien?"Mandy's eyes widened, though her gaze flickered evasively. "Damien… Of course, I miss him. He's been through so much. I often dream of him… I see him in my dreams."Alyssa's voice turned stern. "Mandy, please tell me the truth. Are you secretly following Remy?"Mandy froze. "Lyse, how did you—""I overheard bits of your conversation earlier. I just pieced it togethe

    Justin sat by the window with his eyes closed, basking in the warm, golden sunlight.His fair complexion and chiseled face gave him an air of nobility and an effortlessly captivating charm. If Alyssa hadn't already known the truth about him, she, too, might have been fooled by his appearance."Mr. Beckett," she greeted as she walked up to him. Justin slowly opened his eyes, lifting his chin to meet her gaze with a gentle intensity. "Ms. Alyssa, have you decided to accept my suggestion?" he asked. "Be honest with me—are there any side effects to this medication?" Alyssa's voice was hoarse, strained with emotion.Her eyes reddened as she continued, "I am not going to put my father's life at risk." Justin shook his head slightly. "I'm sorry, Ms. Alyssa. The only thing I can guarantee is that your father will survive. I can't promise anything beyond that."Alyssa balled her hands into fists. "I know you don't trust me. But right now, you have no other choice." Justin's gaze d

    Alyssa narrowed her eyes, her gaze cold. The man before her often disguised his vile and vicious nature beneath a fragile exterior. Justin was everything Jasper wasn't—where Jasper was honest, strong, and serious, Justin exuded a chilling, sinister energy. He was like a snake in human form, cold and cunning. "Lyse, don't listen to his nonsense," Silas said bluntly. "He's just trying to unsettle you, luring you in with lies."Stepping forward, Silas positioned himself between Alyssa and Justin, confronting the latter. "Are you some plague or sewer pest? Why are you always around? You're not welcome here. Get out of Lyse's sight right now!" "Silas," Alyssa murmured, gently tugging at his shirt as she shook her head. Then, turning her emotionless gaze toward Justin, she said, "Mr. Beckett, you claim you can treat my father's condition. Care to elaborate?" Justin pressed a clean white silk handkerchief to his mouth and nose, releasing a couple of dull coughs and furrowing his br
