NovelEnglishOn the way hfrom the hospital, Alyssa replayed Jasper's words in her mind, recalling the promise they'd sealed with a high five. Her heart swelled with a mix of emotions that she could barely define.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWatching the snowfall outside, her eyes shimmered with tears. Softly, she murmured to herself, "Alyssa, he cto see you of his own accord and was willing to go along with what you wanted. Isn't that enough? "You no longer have the right to be carefree and proud in front of him. You need to be grateful." As Sean drove, he glanced into the rearview mirror. Seeing Alyssa's desolate expression stirred a deep sorrow within him.
Being separated from Jasper had turned Alyssa's world upside down. If Jasper were to die, Alyssa's life would bepletely shattered.
Perhaps having Jasper alive was the best oue fate could offer after all they had endured, however bittersweet it was.
"Ms. Alyssa, it's late. Why don't you go hto rest instead of heading back to KS Group? You'll soon be busy with the fight for Solana City's Project A5," Sean said gently, concerned when he saw how pale Alyssa looked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlyssa frowned, looking troubled. Instead of responding to Sean's suggestion, she said, "Sean, there's someone I'd like you to look into." Sean responded immediately, "Of course. Tellmore." "20 years ago, a woman named Mildred Hayes worked as a helper at Seaview Manor, caring for Grandpa Newton. Her mother's last nis Rollins, and she still lives in Solana City." The grievance in her expression disappeared, replaced by her usual calm andposed demeanor. She continued, "This woman was killed by Justin 20 years ago, but the exact circumstances and cause of her death remain unclear. We need to uncover the full story." This revelation shocked Sean. "Justin was involved in a murder at such a young age? He's the devil incarnate, isn't he?" "I suppose. I can't believe that an elegant and gentle man who's passionate about charity could have such a dark side to him. If I hadn't seen and heard it for myself at the cemetery, I wouldn't have believed it." Alyssa coldly stated, "It's terrifying that someone like him-someone who could put on such an act is living under the sroof as Jasper and posing as his life-savior. Doesn't this make you feel afraid?" Justin's elegant and bright face flashed in Sean's mind, making him shudder. "It's absolutely terrifying!" "That's why we must get to the bottom of this. Generally speaking, a murderer should answer for his sins. Even if Justin was still a minor back then, it doesn't excuse him from justice." Chapter 2317 1 Sean admired Alyssa's strategicposure. She was no longer impulsive, but measured and astute.
Then, a thought struck Sean. In a chilling tone, he remarked, "Ms. Alyssa, if Justin could kill at 14, that shows a naturally cold- blooded, brutal side." Chapter 2317 2 Wide-eyed, Sean asked, "But killing animals and murdering a person... Are they really the same?" Chapter 2317 3 "But Ms. Alyssa," Sean asked, finally voicing a question that had troubled him, "if Justin is so disturbed, how could he have saved Mr. Jasper's life? Doesn't his ruthlessness contradict that act?" Upon hearing that, Alyssa stiffened up. The look in her eyes was gloomy.
Unaware of the tension, Sean continued, "If I were him, I'd have bribed the kidnappers. I'd use the situation to get rid of my younger brother once and for all so that he no longer stands in my way.
"After all, Mr. Jasper was just an unwee illegitimate child in the Beckett family at the time. If he died just like that, it probably wouldn't cause much of an uproar either. People would et him soon enough." The more Alyssa mulled over it, the more her heart raced. She tightened her grip on the car door handle.
