A helicopter exploded in the air in the countryside. It was a massive piece of news. Moreover, the

residents nearby recorded the entire process and uploaded it online, causing a huge stir.

This was a negative incident. However, the police issued a notice through official channels claiming

that internationally wanted criminals were trying to escape capture through the helicopter.

All six of them were found dead. When the news was released, the comments took a different turn.

Everyone in the country was thrilled and thought they deserved it.

David's forensics report came out and confirmed it was mechanical asphyxia. Plus, from the direction

of the laceration and the wounds left from the struggle, he was murdered.

However, out of hundreds of inmates and police officers, no one found out who did it.

Perhaps someone was secretly obstructing the case investigation, hoping that the truth would never

come to light.

All sorts of comments were flying through the internet about David's death.

One comment said, "What a relief! I was thinking about how to sentence him to death. Now, justice has

been served! This is amazing!"

Another comment said, "This is letting that animal off too easily. He should suffer a few years in jail, not

being allowed to eat every day and suffer a beating every day. He deserved to be tormented to death!"

One comment agreed, "Exactly! He died way too early. It's a shame that he hasn't tasted the bitterness

of suffering!"

"It's a bigger shame that the victims did not witness David tried by the law. He hasn't suffered utter

humiliation by the public. What a shame!"

However, it didn't matter what was said. No one was standing on David's side. Only a person out of his

mind would do that.

The Schmidt Group had never publicly expressed their stance yet. They were so quiet as if they didn't

know David.

Victor's son, whom he had spoiled for two decades died and suffered so much humiliation on the

internet. Yet, he didn't dare utter a word, hoping that the citizens of this country would stop hounding on

their family affairs.

However, David's funeral was done sloppily. No one else came to send their condolences except for his

family.

No one of status and power would come and pay their respects to a terrible animal like him. They

would be too shameless if they did that.

Time passed, and it was finally two days before Sophia's trial.

In the morning, Alyssa visited Jasper's mother, Anne, with him.

In the quiet and solemn cemetery, desolation and sadness filled their hearts.

Alyssa placed her mother's favorite bouquet of lilies respectfully before the tombstone. An

overwhelming sense of sadness overtook her. Her eyes reddened as she stood behind Jasper.

Jasper knelt on one knee and used a clean white handkerchief to delicately wipe the tombstone.

Alyssa noticed this tombstone was the cleanest and most well-kept in the entire cemetery. It was clear

that Jasper visited her every year. He cared for this place day and night, ensuring his mother could rest

in peace.

"Mom, I'm here to see you again."

Jasper was teary-eyed as his fingertips shakily grazed his mother's face in the photo. "However, it's

different this time. I didn't come alone today. I have company.

"I remember you were always worried I would have no one with me when I was younger. You always

worried I would be lonely. Mom, you don't need to worry now. I'm doing well. Since you left, I-I found my

happiness once again."

He stood up, walked to Alyssa's side, and hugged her tightly by the shoulder. His lips curled into a

bright smile. "Look, what do you think of her? I think she is beautiful, just like you."

"Y-You're exaggerating..."

Alyssa's cheeks blushed. She was more beautiful than any other woman in the world. She knitted her

fair and delicate hands together, completely shy and reserved.

It was as if Jasper's mother was standing right in front of her.

"Mom, let me introduce you to her. Her name is Alyssa Taylor. She is the love of my life." Jasper

choked as he shakily said the last word. "I don't want anything but her in this lifetime." "Jasper." Alyssa

murmured, teary-eyed.

"I'm sure you're happy for me wherever you are now."

Suddenly, a delicate breeze lifted a strand of Alyssa's black hair hanging next to her beautiful face. It

blew away the tears at the corner of her eyes like an invisible hand caressing her face gently.

Alyssa's face started beating wildly. Her eyes widened as she stared at the warm, smiling woman in the

monochrome picture.

She wondered if it was Jasper's mother, answering Jasper silently.

She must have been watching over her son in heaven, protecting and blessing him.

"Auntie Anne, we will win this war. Please bless Jasper wherever you are in heaven."

After they finished, they both paid their respects before Anne's tombstone, hand in hand.

Jasper's eyes were filled with tears as he paid his respects to his late mother. His lips curled into a

happy smile.

He was overjoyed to have brought Alyssa to finally see his mother.

Both of them stayed for a while. Alyssa wiped and cleaned the tombstone. Then, she was ready to

leave peacefully.

Suddenly, unfamiliar footsteps inched closer to them.

"Jasper?"

However, the familiar voice was like a sharp ice pick that stabbed Jasper's back.

Alyssa turned back before he did to look. Her pupils dilated as Jasper's grip, already tight, tightened

even more.

Javier stood tall in a black suit a few steps away. Rory and four bodyguards were right behind him.

The resounding presence of the Beckett Group's chairman shattered the serenity of the cemetery.
