Chapter 976

Author: Ginger Sue
Jasper whirled around, drawn in by a pleasant fragrance. Alyssa leaned closer to him, her eyes shining brightly. She placed her arms by his side, her plump lips hovering before him.

He swallowed hard and blushed at the fatal attraction of her moist lips.

Alyssa purred, "Have you forgotten what I said to you?" Her hand traveled down to his chest and traced its way to his abdomen.

His heart raced as he stared intently at her rosy lips. Just when he was about to kiss her, she took the cigarette from between his fingers and placed it between her lips.

She took a long drag but started coughing violently. Her face reddened.

He pinched her flushed cheeks and teased her, "Oh, you silly thing! Don't force yourself if you don't know how to smoke."

"I don't understand … Cough … What's so appealing about smoking?" She tossed the cigarette on the floor and stomped on it. "You and Axel smoke all the time. What are you, a chimney? I should play the documentary of lung cancer on a loop to scare

    Alyssa massaged her slightly sore temples and let out a bitter laugh. "Sean, you're quite the sweet-talker, aren't you? I bet you make your wife very happy at home.""Of course. I make Taty so happy every day that she has this silly grin on her face all the time. From the moment she got pregnant to the day she gave birth, the doctor said she was perfectly healthy, both physically and emotionally. There wasn't even the slightest sign of postpartum depression!" Sean boasted, eyes warm with affection and pride.He did his very best to be the perfect husband and father. A relieved smile softened Alyssa's face. "That's wonderful. You're truly blessings to each other. Make sure you hold on to Taty tightly. Never let her go, alright?""Don't worry, Ms. Alyssa. I swear on my life that I, Sean Lynch, will love Taty with everything I have for the rest of my days."He gazed deeply at Alyssa, his voice trembling slightly. "And I'm sure you and Mr. Beckett will get back together. How could a

    "Mr. Beckett," Xavier said, walking to Jasper's side, concern etched across his face. Jasper quickly hid the emotions flickering in his eyes and forced himself to appear composed. "The contract-signing ceremony went very smoothly," he remarked.Xavier's gaze stayed on the screen. Alyssa looked stunning and elegant as she shook hands with Justin, captivating the entire audience. Countless emotions swirled within him. "It's just a shame that you aren't the one standing across from Madam Alyssa," he said.Jasper's eyelashes trembled slightly as he parted his dry lips. "It doesn't really matter who signs the contract with Ms. Alyssa, as long as the signing is successful and benefits Beckett Group.""Are you sure it doesn't matter?" "Yes." Jasper's Adam's apple bobbed. In a hoarse voice, he added, "It really doesn't matter that much." Xavier sighed helplessly. Jasper was hopelessly stubborn. He would probably deny it until his death."Mr. Beckett, didn't you say you weren't coming

    Julien felt an instant chill run down his spine. Though the bar was loud and chaotic, everything around him suddenly felt silent—as if he had been plunged into a vacuum. "Mr. Beckett values talent and has great admiration for you," Uri said smoothly. "When he found out that you and I were acquainted, he asked me to pay you a special visit and have a good chat with you."He gestured to the bartender for another drink. Then, he slowly pushed the glass toward Julien, a gloomy look flickering in his eyes. "Mr. Beckett also has his own research center in Mosgravia."His plan, on returning to Solana City, is to establish the largest and most advanced pharmaceutical research center in the country—one that will contribute to the advancement of human medicine."He's recruiting talented individuals from all over the world. He truly appreciates your abilities and sincerely hopes you'll join him on this journey."If you work with Mr. Beckett, not only will your lab's financial issues be reso

    After settling Jasper down for the night, Xavier left the bedroom and nervously dialed Julien's number from the living room. Julien picked up after only a few rings. As always, the background noise on his end was chaotic. "Mr. Hall, is Mr. Beckett unwell?" Xavier felt bad for only reaching out to Julien whenever he needed help, especially since Julien had always been kind to them. Nonetheless, he asked politely, "Dr. Lovelace, we're running low on Mr. Beckett's medication. Could you provide two more bottles?" "Already? I gave you three bottles last time!" Though shocked, Julien didn't treat Xavier like an outsider. He spoke bluntly, "Has Mr. Beckett been taking my meds like candy? Listen—nervous system depressants like these are harmful to the nerves and kidneys."Too much can damage his brain and his sexual function. If he's not careful, he might not be able to get it up in the future!" "But we really don't have a choice right now. Mr. Beckett can't go without it, and his c

    "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
