Chapter 751

"Jameson Schmidt!""Mr. Beckett, instead of accusing me without evidence, why don't you consider how you'll explain yourself to the Harpers? How do you plan to clarify this with your friend, Landon Harper?"Ms. Harper is unmarried. Given recent events, I believe marriage might be on the horizon for you." Jameson smiled."Jimmy, quit it. Let's go," Alyssa suggested. She felt a stabbing pain in her heart and had the urge to flee the scene. She needed to get away from Jasper—as far as possible.As they turned to leave, Jasper persisted, "Were you with Jameson the entire night?""Yes," she said coldly, her back turned toward him."Alyssa, is he more important to you than me?" Jasper trembled despite trying to control his emotions."Jasper, what's the point of asking that now?" She chuckled, her eyes dimmed. "To be blunt, you've dug your own grave. I was lying to myself. Let's call it quits now—I beg you."With that, they vanished from his teary vision. Alyssa did not turn back at a

"Lyse, what's wrong?" Jameson noted the change in Alyssa's expression and asked with concern.She stated, "I've never blocked Jasper on my phone. Why is his contact in my blocked list?" Her piercing gaze landed on Jameson's innocent face."Lyse …""Did you do that?" She cut to the chase. "I did not contact anyone except for you tonight. Jasper claimed that he called me throughout the night but couldn't reach me because his number was blocked."Jameson balled his fists on his knee. There was a glint in his eyes.She squinted at him and recalled, "I remember that I left my phone when I used the restroom at the restaurant. Did you take the chance to block his number?""Lyse, are you suspecting me now?" Jameson stared at her with innocent-looking bright eyes."I am not suspecting you. I am merely stating the truth," Alyssa countered harshly.Jameson felt a weight on his chest that nearly crushed him. He began, "Lyse, I shouldn't have touched your phone, but I didn't want him interr

Alyssa knitted her brows as she grappled with the mixed emotions. She argued, "I'm not worth risking your life for. You should cut your losses now."Cut his losses?Rage filled Jameson's eyes as he clenched his fists against the car window. Her words were more humiliating and hurtful than a simple "I do not love you."She continued, "Everyone is deserving of love. I don't want to see you end up like me."…Jasper returned to his car well past midnight. Xavier purchased a cup of hot coffee from the 24-hour mart across the park. When he handed the coffee to Jasper, he noticed that Jasper's hands were too frozen to grip the cup properly.Feeling sorry for Jasper, Xavier increased the heat in the car and draped Jasper in his jacket. Then, he placed the coffee in Jasper's hands.He suggested, "Mr. Beckett, there's a hospital nearby. Let's see a doctor. Your hands are cracking from the cold.""How did he do it?" Jasper stared at his phone and pondered icily.Xavier was surprised. "W

The online buzz surrounding Zoe and Jasper's "rendezvous" continued to escalate. Both the Beckett Group and the Harper Group PR teams worked tirelessly to mitigate the controversy. Still, the widespread dissemination of videos and photos made it difficult to quell the public discussion.Even if they managed to take relevant hashtags off the trending topics, they couldn't stop people from discussing it.Penelope dropped her phone in shock and slipped down the stairs when she saw the trending topics. Thankfully, she was near the landing and merely stumbled a few steps down. Still, she suffered from a sprained ankle and hurt her head.Landon was badly shocked by his mom's injuries and sent her to the hospital overnight.Penelope, while on an IV drip, held Landon's hands tightly and sobbed. "Landon, what do we do? Zoe is only 22. How is she going to live her life with this stain? What can I say to your grandpa and your dad?"Then, she cried hysterically. Landon swallowed hard and sat

Cornelius lived separately from his sons, just like Newton. He lived in a massive manor slightly smaller than the Seaview Manor, but it was still considered one of the top ten manors in the nation.The scandal had spread across the family. Even the domestic staff would gossip about Zoe in their pastime.Furthermore, the silence from Jasper and the Beckett Group created an impression that Zoe was nothing more than a discarded plaything after a night of fun and passion. Her reputation as a Harper lay in ruins."Hey, is Ms. Zoe around?" The maids huddled together to gossip. "She's in Mr. Cornelius' study, crying as if someone died.""What's the point of crying? She should have behaved better as a Harper—protecting her reputation is a priority. She's now involved with Mr. Beckett and wasn't even fully dressed in the photos. Any distinguished family would care about their reputation. No one would want a woman like her.""Perhaps Mr. Beckett would want to marry her. They must have had

Preston lounged on the couch, lazily peeling a tangerine he plucked from the fruit plate. "You know, I think Jasper Beckett should marry Zoe."Cornelius' eyebrows shot up at the statement, and Zoe couldn't contain a quiet grin in Cornelius' arms."Sure, Jasper might be an out-of-wedlock son, which isn't ideal, but Justin Beckett is unwell. Sooner or later, the company will be Jasper's. If Zoe marries him, she'll inherit Beckett Group. Not a bad deal at all," Preston remarked, crossing his legs and stuffing a piece of fruit into his mouth."Uncle Preston, what are you even saying …" Zoe bit her lower lip and blushed."I've thought it over. We'll make an announcement saying that you've been dating Jasper for a while now, but we kept it private because we didn't want to take up the press space."Two single adults sharing a room is pretty normal, isn't it? Is there a need for public outrage? Look how badly they've scared Zoe," Preston added. He was in charge of entertainment and PR ag

Preston was halfway through his speech when Zoe burst into tears. She moaned, "Grandpa, Uncle Preston, I am so ashamed and done for! I should just end my life!""Dear child, don't cry. I will take care of this for you," Cornelius soothed her. As a retired businessman who had once dominated the playing field, he was aghast at the treatment his family received. He shattered the teapot and seethed, "So, is Jasper Beckett thinking of shirking his responsibility? He's going to regret it."Landon, didn't your mom get hurt after hearing about the scandal? She's in the hospital, right?"Landon gulped and sank into silence."When she's out of the hospital, meet with the Becketts to discuss marriage. If you don't, I will!" Cornelius threatened."Grandpa, can we calm down for a bit?" Landon growled. He was at his limits when he learned that his family planned to cause a ruckus at the Becketts'."Landon, if I recall correctly, you're like brothers with Jasper Beckett," said Preston, who cr

Preston's expression twisted as he exited Cornelius' place. His shocked secretary trailed closely behind and questioned, "Mr. Preston, I overheard most of your conversation with Mr. Landon in the study. Why would you support Ms. Zoe's marriage to Mr. Beckett? You clearly knew that—""And do you really believe Jasper Beckett would marry Zoe?" Smirking, Preston added, "Jasper has gotten himself into trouble many times because of Alyssa Taylor. Not long ago, he even risked his life to save her from an attack."Those two are obviously involved with each other. Zoe is deluded in this one-sided love. I am certain Jasper Beckett will not agree to marry Zoe, and that is precisely why I'm endorsing the marriage. I plan to exploit the strain between Landon and Jasper for my benefit.""That's clever!" the secretary praised. A glint appeared in Preston's eyes. "Romance has always been the most effective tool to pit two men against each other."Just as he prepared to descend the stairs, an idea

Zoe had tested Landon's boundaries with her audacious demeanor and shameless laughter, leaving him incredulous that she was his sister. When had Zoe transformed into this woman? He had doted on her since childhood, but she had gradually veered down the wrong path.He screamed at her in a fit of hysteria. "I'll ask you one last time. Who's the mastermind behind this scandal?""No one. My answer remains the same, no matter how many times you ask me," she replied and rose from the ground. She smoothed the wrinkles on her expensive dress and tossed her brown wavy curls. "Landon, I will marry your best friend soon and become Mrs. Beckett."You know Jasper well. Although you said you'd introduce me to wealthy suitors, I won't marry anyone except for Jasper, as I have loved him for a long time. No one is better than Jasper. Aren't you happy that I'm about to marry a Beckett? I thought you loved me the most. Was that just for show as well?""Zoe Harper, what's all that bullshit?" Lando

"Lyse, you're awesome!" Cyrus exclaimed. He was seated in a corner of the KS World Hotel café with Alyssa.He laid out a few photos on the table and remarked, "As you have predicted, the culprit has a secret room at his house where he kept Sophia Kirkman's photos. He's not a loyal fan of Lyla like he claimed, but a fanatic supporter of Sophia Kirkman."Alyssa pursed her lips and said in a hushed voice, "Cyrus, have you found any other important clues?"After some hesitation, Cyrus showed her a transparent evidence bag. The bag contained a platinum necklace studded with diamonds. The design of the jewelry was rather outdated, and the quality was not the best.Cyrus explained, "I found this necklace at the attacker's place. He carefully stored it in a case, so I assume it's very important to him."Alyssa always had a sharp memory. Somehow, the necklace looked familiar to her. She quickly looked through some of the photos."Look, Sophia has worn this necklace before. It's the same o
