Chapter 357

Author: Ginger Sue
Like a vulnerable creature finding safety, Lauren instinctively nestled in the person's arms.

Landon looked down in surprise, feeling the front of his shirt soaked through.

He could sense the warmth of her skin through the damp fabric of her dress as it made contact with his own. His breathing picked up slightly, and he tightened his grip around her waist.

"Laurie?" he murmured hoarsely.

Lauren clung to his arm, staying mute.

"Are you hurt?" Landon asked, worried.

She weakly shook her hea

    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

    That night, Xavier set up a video camera in front of Eden, recording his full confession while Alyssa and Jasper supervised the entire process. On camera, Eden broke down in tears, repenting for everything he had done while working under Justin. He owned up to every crime, weeping and pleading for leniency. Alyssa had insisted on this as a safety measure. If Eden unexpectedly changed his story at the police station the next day, this recording would serve as concrete, undeniable proof, leaving him with absolutely no room to back out.Afterward, Eden was confined to a room. Though he was provided with food and drinks, he remained under the relentless vigilance of Xavier and several bodyguards. They were there not just to ensure he didn't escape, but to prevent him from taking his own life out of desperation. Once again, Jasper found himself in awe of Alyssa's meticulous, calculated precision. By midnight, the two stood side by side on the balcony of what had once been their bed

    Bitter regret began to take root in Jasper's heart. He was the one who had brought these hardships into Alyssa's life. She should have grown up cherished and adored by her father and older brothers. Instead, because of him, she had tasted nothing but misery and witnessed the darkest depths of human nature. If only she had never met him. But would he truly be willing to miss out on such a legendary romance as theirs? Could he ever resign himself to that?No. He couldn't bear to lose her. He was utterly, hopelessly in love with her. Eden sneered. "Truth be told, I knew a day like this would come ever since I started working for Justin. I just never expected this day to arrive so soon."He buried his face in his hands, his shoulders shaking in a sound that was half-sob, half-laugh. His composure was unraveling. "Mr. Huber, I've looked into your background," Jasper said. His gaze was steady, his voice entirely composed. "You come from a family of academics and graduated from

    Feeling sorry, Sean apologized, "I'm sorry, Ms. Alyssa. I didn't take good care of Ms. Tatiana. I accept any punishment.""L-Lyse, don't! Sean has been busy enough. He tried his best to look after me well, so please don't punish him!" Tatiana pleaded with a pale face, worried that Sean might get into

    Looking delighted, Jameson smiled. "Thank you, Lyse."…Alyssa led Jameson and Lily into the event hall. David appeared baffled by the scene. Pointing at the door, he gasped, "Josh, look! It's that woman!"Josh casually swirled the red wine in his glass and looked up with a cold expression. He frowned

    Jasper's remarks left everyone stunned. They could not believe how straightforward and sharp-tongued he was. Upon hearing what Jasper said, the business titans remained composed, managing their expressions well. However, their gazes toward Dominic carried a tinge of disdain. They agreed that if Domi

    Jonah subtly nodded at Alyssa, accompanying it with a warm smile as he extended his hand. "Lyse.""Coming!" Alyssa responded, gracefully stepping out of the car in her sleek black YSL heels. The swaying of her black skirt revealed the fair complexion of her slender legs, a captivating sight for anyon
