Chapter 833

Author: Ginger Sue
Jonah entered his study and sat at his desk. The smile that hung on his face remained.

He stretched his neck slightly backward and tugged on his tie. He undid the buttons around his collar. Finally, he could breathe.

A silver cross fell from the opening on his shirt. It glistened faintly under the light.

Jonah closed his eyes slowly. He took a deep breath to calm his restless heart down.

At this moment, Julien's beautiful androgynous features weren't the ones occupying his mind. It was another man—a man he thought he had forgotten yet still longed for—his old flame.

Jonah turned toward the bookshelf wall and picked two books.

The bookshelf made a "click" sound, and a secret compartment appeared to reveal an exquisite safe.

He punched the man's birthday and his own, and the safe opened.

There were a few framed photos, a sealed envelope, and a black velvet jewelry box in the safe.

Jonah opened the jewelry box. In it was a pair of diamond rings, perfect for a couple.

He picked

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2488

    "Jasper, you're back," Justin greeted with a faint smile. Even so, his grip on Alyssa only tightened, showing no sign of letting her go. His eyes gleamed with an intense possessiveness.Alyssa's heart skipped a beat. As she looked into Jasper's deep, distant eyes, tears welled up quietly. At that moment, she felt her entanglement with Justin was nothing short of disgraceful.Nevertheless, having come this far with her act, she knew all her efforts would be in vain if she gave up now. So, she had no choice but to keep playing her part.Instead of pulling away from Justin, she even curved her lips slightly in a faint smile."Hi, Mr. Jasper." Mr. Jasper? Jasper's expression darkened. His fists clenched, his eyes unreadable. "W-What are you two up to?" he asked hoarsely.Justin's eyes twinkled slightly as he maintained his calm, elegant smile. "I hosted a guest at Seaview Manor tonight. We happened to discuss a business partnership, so I invited Lyse over for dinner as well."W

    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
