Chapter 266

Autor: Ginger Sue
After nearly a week spent in the Investigative Bureau, Sophia finally walked out, heaving her tired body like a lump of sand. Without her makeup and skincare routine, she seemed to have aged an additional decade. Even her hair had more gray strands than before.

She avoided the crowd of reporters and decided not to go home first. Javier would probably pass out at the sight of her. So Betty accompanied her to a beauty parlor, where she could wash up, pluck away her gray hairs, and put on some mak

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2604

    A police officer stood guard at the entrance to Justin's hospital ward, a presence that made Alyssa feel a little more at ease. However, the moment she stepped inside, the door clicked shut behind her, making her heart leap again. Step by step, she approached the hospital bed, her gaze cold and unyielding. She tried to mask her emotions, but the hatred she carried for Justin seeped through her every movement. She despised him—utterly and completely. His very presence repulsed her. This remained true even though the man sitting up in bed, leaning against the headboard, looked exceptionally handsome. His fair complexion and well-defined features exuded a refined elegance. Most women would fall for him at first glance, utterly captivated by his flawless act. Little would they know that beneath it all, he was a monster in disguise—a wolf in sheep's clothing. "It seems I was right about you." Justin narrowed his eyes at Alyssa, curling his lips into a gentle, relieved smile. "Now

    In an instant, Alyssa's heart leaped into her throat. She forced herself to stay composed beneath Damien's piercing gaze. "What? Nothing's wrong. I'm fine," she replied, her voice steady but thin. Damien's eyes softened with concern. "I've been watching you since dinner. You looked pale then, and now you're even paler. You look… anemic."His voice dropped, warm and probing. "Tell me—what's going on? Did something happen?" "No, not at all. I'm just exhausted. Winston handed me KS Group—a massive corporation—to manage. I'm not a superwoman. Of course I struggle sometimes."Alyssa pouted as she grumbled, "Winston just had too much drive when he was young. Why did he have to build such a sprawling empire? I'm working myself to death trying to keep it afloat!"Damien sighed helplessly. "I don't know much about business, but Jasper could help. He's experienced."Alyssa's eyes welled, her voice catching. "Jasper has already done more than enough. I can manage on my own. I don't want

    Alyssa hung up abruptly, saying nothing else. She stared at the darkened screen, her chest heaving as her breathing turned ragged. It took her several long moments to regain her composure. Should she meet Justin?The safest path was clearly to decline, avoiding all risks and potential traps. However, that wasn't in her nature. Feigning ignorance while Justin was free felt like cowardice. Now that he had been bailed out, his influence, his darkness, and his psychosis were unpredictable variables. As long as he was alive, he would continue to rise from the ashes. She remembered his uncle, Zachary, who had been sentenced to death for murder only to have his sentence commuted to life imprisonment after providing proof of psychosis. With "expert guidance", he had operated from behind bars for years, using a scapegoat to serve his time while he remained free.Though the legal system had evolved, Justin was more than capable of exploiting similar loopholes to evade justice while on medi

    Alyssa received the notification during a board meeting at KS Group's headquarters. As she read the news that Justin had been granted medical furlough, she slammed her hand against the table and surged to her feet, her eyes burning with fury. The board members, caught off guard by her sudden outburst, held their breath, terrified to make a sound. "We're done for today," Alyssa said, her voice sharp. "Meeting dismissed."With that, she stormed out of the conference room, her expression frigid. Once inside her office, she began to pace, the frustration evident as a thin sheen of sweat formed on her forehead. "What happened? Why was that devil released?" Sean's eyes were bloodshot with rage. Through gritted teeth, he said, "I've heard the details. Justin's attorney submitted a comprehensive diagnostic report claiming he suffers from severe psychosis. They've even produced medical records suggesting a hereditary history on his mother's side."Alyssa's hands shook so violently tha

    Jasper had just emerged from the conference room after a grueling evening meeting with the Beckett Group when his phone rang with a call from Cyrus. "Jasper, I have bad news," Cyrus said, his voice heavy. "The higher-ups signed off on the paperwork. Justin has been released on bail.""What?" Jasper's heart sank. "How is that possible? What exactly happened?" "His attorney handed new evidence over to the police, proving he suffers from severe psychosis. Apparently, it runs in the family—both his mother and his uncle have the same diagnosis. To make matters worse, they had a paper trail of detailed medical records and an official psychiatric evaluation report to back it up!"Furious, Cyrus cursed, "Damn it, that freaking bastard! I never imagined his psychosis would become his lifeline. I've already contacted the forensics team. Justin's currently out on medical furlough, but he can't run—he's still under strict police surveillance. "I want to see how long he can keep up this psy

    The next morning, Jasper contacted Cyrus before taking Eden to the police station to turn himself in. The moment the cold, metal handcuffs snapped around his wrists, Eden's shoulders finally dropped. He smiled, looking as though a massive weight had been lifted from his chest. He turned and gave Jasper a firm, respectful nod. "Thank you, Mr. Beckett."Jasper simply returned a slight, solemn nod, watching him go without a word. Once Eden was escorted into the interrogation room, Cyrus hurried over to Jasper, clapping a heavy hand onto his shoulder. "Thanks for your hard work, Jasper. Justin's secretary's statement gives us concrete evidence. That bastard won't be able to play any more games. This time, we're definitely convicting him."The corners of Jasper's lips lifted slightly, a gentle warmth touching his eyes. "I didn't do much. It was Lyse. She trapped Mr. Huber at Seaview Manor last night, keeping him entirely under her control. She's the smart one here."Cyrus couldn't

    Feces? What the heck?Alyssa and Jasper exchanged looks while Jonah glanced at Julien's feminine and alluring face in astonishment.Simon gaped at Julien as well. His eyes lit up with fury. He trembled in panic, fear, and humiliation at the thought of that night."You… You…" Simon covered his mouth as

    Jameson said, "What I want is Dad's recognition and to be promoted rightfully. I don't want to be the target of people's gossip saying that I am a usurper."Jameson tilted his chin up slightly. He let out a proud smile as he said, "The most important thing to Josh is his position as the president. "I

    Jasper was reasonably worried. "She's failed her last mission. She might try again. After all, she's still working for Jameson. We don't know what tricks she'll pull next time."Axel snorted with a maniacal smile. "Hmph, no one could kill me."…Excruciating screams reverberated from the damp basement

    The Schmidt family had truly raised a bunch of maggots that were rotten to the core."N-No... It's not… It's not true."Daisy's face turned crimson, as if all the blood in her body had gathered in her face. She almost hysterically shouted, "That recording is fake! It's fake!"I don't know any fortune t
