Chapter 681

Author: Ginger Sue
"You insolent brat! How dare you speak to your father in such a manner?" Victor raged. He would have slapped Jameson if it weren't for the presence of other guests.

Except for Winston, men of Victor's generation believed in the importance of discipline and felt that rebellious individuals should be subject to corporal punishment.

Therefore, he believed it was only appropriate to physically punish Jameson.

    If the authorities ever obtained that recording, Javier would be dragged into a full-blown scandal even if no physical evidence remained. His reputation would be destroyed, Beckett Group would descend into chaos, and even Newton would be greatly affected. Beckett Group must never fall into Justin's hands. If he gained complete control, there was no telling how far into darkness he would steer it. "H-How did you get that recording?" Javier's voice trembled, his entire body shaking. Back then, Justin had been what—three? Four? How could he possibly have…"This was the only gift my dearest mother ever left me," Justin replied calmly. "Whether in life or death. She kept the voice recorder locked in a safe, deep within her wardrobe. The passcode is a combination of your birthdate and mine."He gave a soft click of his tongue, shaking his head. There was no grief in his eyes, only cold disdain for Caroline. She had been foolish enough to let a grand, blind love be her undoing. "My

    Javier stood rooted to the spot, his face drained of all color. It was as though lightning had struck him; as if his soul was wrenched from his body, his blood turning to ice. All strength to resist Justin vanished in an instant. Since childhood, Newton had always favored his second son, Chester, over Javier. Chester was dependable, kind-hearted, generous, and highly capable. Javier, as the eldest, was no less competent. Yet as the years passed and both brothers grew into adulthood, their differences became increasingly apparent—especially after they began taking over the family business. Newton never held back in praising Chester. In fact, he even started considering entrusting key projects at Beckett Group to him. Though Javier never voiced his discontent, resentment quietly festered beneath the surface. As the eldest son, he had always believed that inheriting the Beckett family legacy—and Beckett Group—was his rightful future. But Chester's very existence became a constan

    "I'll accompany you to the police station tomorrow so you can turn yourself in." Javier drew a deep breath, his voice heavy with finality. "It is a father's failure when his child goes astray. As your father, I fell short. "When you were young, I was too focused on advancing my career. Work consumed me, and I neglected to give you the love and care you needed. I indulged you, and that indulgence led to this mistake. I must bear responsibility too. "So I'll face this with you. You were only a teenager when the crime was committed—a minor. I'll hire the best attorney in the country and do everything I can to secure leniency for you."Eden was the first to erupt. "Mr. Javier, don't you think this is incredibly unfair to Mr. Justin? Do you know how much he's been through to get where he is today? He lived alone in a foreign country. No one cared about him, and his health was never good. "Now that he's finally built something for himself, how can you be so cruel as to take it all awa

    Javier's eyes widened in shock. Though the spacious study was well-heated, a chilling cold spread through his entire body. "Justin… w-what do you mean by that? Did you actually take someone's life? Did you really kill that young woman?" "Shh—"Justin lifted a finger to his lips, a cruel glint flashing in his dark eyes. "She was just an insignificant helper. Nothing worth making a fuss over, is it?"Eden, standing behind him, remained silent. Meanwhile, Rory's face had turned deathly pale. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, soaking through his sleeves and collar. Just how twisted did a person have to be to speak of murder with such indifference?"An insignificant helper? That was a human life!"Javier glared at the man before him, his eyes bloodshot. A massive wave of terror crashed over him. "Why did you kill her? Why?""Because it was fun." Justin tilted his head and gave a careless shrug. "Of course, I was a little nervous the first time I stabbed her. But by the second stri

    Immediately, Eden and Rory pulled out their phones at the same time to check the news. A moment later, their expressions fell in unison. They cried out together, "It's bad news, Mr. Beckett!" "What is it now?" Javier snapped impatiently. With a grim expression, Rory glanced at Justin, studying him intently. Though he wanted to report everything to Javier, Justin's cold, sinister gaze sent a chill down his spine. Under that immense pressure, he suddenly found himself at a loss for words. Unable to wait any longer, Javier snatched the phone from Rory's hands. The next moment, it felt as though a bomb had gone off in his head, leaving it buzzing. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. "What is this? An innocent young woman was stabbed over 20 times and murdered? Someone reported that Justin killed a female helper in our family 20 years ago, and that our entire family covered it up?"They're urging the authorities to investigate this as soon as possible, and they're calling for

    "Justin, what's going on with your Uncle Zachary's death? Why are the police investigating you?" Javier demanded. Dark circles hung beneath his eyes, clear evidence that he hadn't slept at all. Justin crossed his legs nonchalantly, an unperturbed smile spreading across his face. "Dad, I know what you're afraid of. But what's there to fear? No matter how terrifying or perverse Uncle Zachary was, he's already dead." Javier flew into a rage. "Me? Afraid of him? The police are after you because of his death! Cyrus Taylor took you away in front of everyone at yesterday's board meeting. The news has spread across Solana City; it's even trending online!"Beckett Group's share price plunged into the red first thing this morning. Do you even realize how much trouble you've caused the corporation?"Justin merely shrugged. "So what? The contract for Project A5 has already been signed, and the project is underway. Besides, we have government-backed projects supporting us. These fluctuations

    Their bodies pressed close to one another, heartbeats loud and clear in the still air. Alyssa's face was flushed, knowing she'd been caught red-handed.
