Chapter 23

"Jasper, have you looked into the matter? What's happening?" asked Javier while comforting Sophia.

"The culprit is Alyssa Taylor, the newly appointed general manager of KS Group."

Jasper dropped his gaze to the ground. He didn't want to see the affectionate scene between Javier and Sophia.

Javier had never treated him and his mother well when he was younger. Jasper suspected that Javier had long forgotten what his mother looked like.

"KS Group … The Taylors in Belbanks?" gasped Sophia. She covered her mouth. "That's the richest family in Belbanks! How did Lia offend them?"

"Our families have been on bad terms due to past issues between our ancestors. Their great-grandmother even swore not to have a marriage alliance with our family. Anyone who goes against that rule must cut ties with the family."

Jasper was unbothered by that. His fiancée was Liana, not anyone from the Taylor family.

However, those words still affected him, and he felt a surge of coldness.

"Geez! I bet the

    Justin lowered his gaze, staring coldly at the screen. A drone footage showed a black car speeding along the winding mountain roads of Domere Mountain. Sheryl's eyes gleamed with vicious intent as she said, "This vehicle has been circling our research base for a while. Once, it even got dangerously close to the core area. They're clearly searching for something. "I can't tell whether they belong to Jasper or were secretly dispatched by Ms. Alyssa. Even the satellites can't precisely locate the base. So how did an unidentified vehicle manage to appear here out of nowhere?"Could someone inside have betrayed us and colluded with outsiders?"She did not need to say the name. The implication was obvious.The faint smile on Justin's lips froze. His naturally pale complexion made him look especially cold at that moment. "Who do you think betrayed us and joined hands with outsiders?"Sheryl hesitated to speak. "I…""Remy?" Justin cut in. He studied her with an insincere smirk. "Do yo

    The prolonged shock and days of relentless exhaustion finally overwhelmed Alyssa. She collapsed and lost consciousness. In the hospital ward, her elder brothers paced back and forth like ants on a hot pan. Once again, the Taylors found themselves in yet another massive crisis."Jonah, I know this isn't something I should be saying right now, but we truly have no other choice. We've been pushed into a corner."Silas drew a deep breath and looked at Jonah, his expression sincere yet utterly helpless. "Could you get in touch with Julien? He's a world-renowned neurologist. If anyone can help, it's him. I'll go to him myself. I'll plead, bargain—whatever he asks. "I'm willing to give up my career as a prosecutor so long as he can help Dad regain his memories."The Taylors were stunned. Back in high school, Silas had dreamed of becoming a prosecutor. He had spent more than a decade clawing his way toward that goal, enduring countless sacrifices to stand where he was today. Everyone

    "Lyse!" Justin, who was usually calm, composed, and elegant, rushed toward Alyssa as though nothing else in the world mattered. As Sheryl watched the drastic change in his demeanor, her lips pressed into a thin line. Jealousy roiled violently in her chest.Why? Why was it always like this?Jasper—a man so dazzling, so proud and untouchable—had once lowered himself repeatedly for Alyssa, even placing her above his own life. Now, even Justin, a man with a god-like presence and bearing, was willing to humble himself for her sake.Alyssa was a minx by nature, born to ensnare men. If her mother were still alive, she would surely have been the same kind of femme fatale. Alyssa had inherited that wicked bloodline without a doubt.Before Justin could get anywhere near Alyssa, Silas and Liam blocked his path.Silas glared at him with bloodshot eyes and roared, "Justin, you scorpion! Do you have no shame in showing up here? What kind of damn medication did you give my father? What the h

    Seconds ticked by. Yet, Winston continued to stare blankly into Alyssa's reddened eyes. Confusion and shock were evident on his face, but the tender affection once etched into his very being was nowhere to be found."Who… are you?" he asked. In that instant, Alyssa's world went dark. Her vision swam, her mind spinning violently. She refused to believe it. She refused to accept that her father, the man who had loved her most in this world, had forgotten her.Her composure was shattered completely. She grabbed Winston by the shoulders and shook him frantically, as though he were a malfunctioning electronic device at home—desperate to jolt his memories awake."Dad, I'm Alyssa… I'm your favorite Lyse! Take a good look at me… How could you forget me?" "My dear… Stop shaking… me… I feel sick…" Winston stammered, discomfort twisting his features. Everyone rushed forward at once. Jonah wrapped his long arms around Alyssa's trembling shoulders, pulling her tightly into his embrace. He

    "Thank God. This is wonderful news!" Alyssa exclaimed, clasping her hands together. Overcome with emotion, tears glistened in her eyes. "Where's Mandy? I saw her just this afternoon. Where did she go?" Colene asked, confusion clouding her gaze. Alyssa immediately followed up, "When did Mandy disappear?" "I'm not sure. It's probably been two or three hours." In a daze, Alyssa recalled Mandy's strange behavior over the past few days. If she wasn't on the phone with someone, she always looked unsettled, distracted. Suspicion quietly took root in Alyssa's heart.At first, she had assumed Mandy was simply overwhelmed with worry over Winston. But now that she thought about it carefully, something felt deeply wrong.Winston meant everything to Mandy. Unless something extraordinarily important had come up, Mandy would never have left his side. So what could have compelled her to leave the hospital without a word, without informing anyone?A sense of unease crept into Alyssa's chest,

    Alyssa, riding in her Rolls-Royce adorned with the Spirit of Ecstasy, made her way toward Belbanks. Sean, seated in the passenger seat, glanced at the rearview mirror repeatedly, his concern for Alyssa deepening with every look. She appeared dreadful—her face as pale as a white rose trembling in the freezing wind.There was a profound loneliness about her, as though she were on the verge of wilting away. Cautiously, Sean asked, "Ms. Alyssa, are you… are you alright?" Alyssa leaned her head against the icy car window. As the trees flashed past outside, Jasper's bandaged hand surfaced in her mind.She exhaled heavily, her chest feeling stifled as the wrenching pain in her heart intensified. Was he badly hurt? Was he in pain? Would his daily life be affected? He had already taken a bullet to the shoulder, been struck in the back by an arrow, and swallowed life-threatening medication that damaged his central nervous system—all because of her. With yet another injury added to th
