At that moment, a sharp, metallic taste of blood surged up Jasper's throat, choking him so violently that he struggled to breathe.

Winston and Silas stared at them, mouths agape. Chills went down their spines.

Silas could feel Winston's arm stiffening up and his palms turning cold.

Alyssa, the darling of their family, was everything to Winston. Yet, even though bonded to Jasper, she had been repeatedly hurt—

physically and emotionally.

Jasper loved Alyssa with all his heart. He'd humbled himself, giving his all for her and Winston's sakes.

Even so, could Winston ive him and let it go when his most beloved daughter fell into danger once again, almost losing her life?

To make matters worse, the current Jasper had lost his ability to feel emotions due to his brain injury. He no longer loved Alyssa,

and this had since been a thorn in Winston's flesh.

Justin's gaze remained fixed on Jasper, his eyes hardening with cold fury.

"As for you," Justin continued, his voice steady but laden with condemnation, "you were wrong to regret your decision and break

your word, especially after you made a promise to Ms. Alyssa, knowing how much it meant to her.

"Your mistake was also in relishing the feeling of having such a remarkable, noble woman like her lower herself topromise and

endure humiliation for your sake—even when you no longer loved her. You gave her hope, only to leave her to fall deeper into

despair, again and again."

Jasper's knuckles becwhite as he tightened his grip over his blanket. His vision began to dim as if he had been hit at the back

of his head.

Alyssa had said the exact words to him last night. Hearing them from Justin now felt like a brutal slap—humiliating and raw.

Once Justin had vented his fury, he leaned back in his wheelchair, his eyes lowering in resignation.

"I planned to say this privately, behind closed doors. After all, Ms. Alyssa is Winston's most cherished, and | didn't want to make

things awkward in front of him. | didn't want to strain your relationship with the Taylors, either.

"But you didn't givethat chance. What happened between us? How did we drift so far apart?"

He sighed softly, a sound that carried a mix of sorrow and helplessness. "You and Alyssa shared something unettable, and even

then, you've reached this point. | guess our brotherly bond is also a thing of the past. | can't ask for more. | won't blyou."

Jasper had said nothing at all.

Yet, his bloodshot eyes burned with a mixture of pain and rage. He looked as if he had been awake for days and nights.

Xavier, standing beside him, clenched his fists in frustration. It was obvious that Justin was exploiting this moment to drive a

wedge between Jasper and Winston, who shared a relationship akin to a father and son.

Justin was envious, jealous, and furious.

Xavier couldn't shake the bitter thought that Justin deserved this, that his life in a wheelchair was nothing more than the

retribution he had earned.

In the end, Winston and Silas left the hospital ward with troubled looks on their faces. Justin then left the room after them. As the

oldest son in the Beckett family, it was only right for him to see his elder off.

Jasper and Xavier were the only ones left in the ward.

This one conversation had virtually put them at loggerheads.

Jasper was badly wounded in the first place. At this moment, he was extremely exhausted, as if his soul had been sucked away

from him.

After a moment, he slowly relaxed his fists and opened his eyes slightly. With a firm gaze, he said, "Xavier, get my clothes ready. |

am getting discharged from the hospital."

"No. | can't have my father and grandfather know about my hospitalization."

Jasper took a deep breath to force himself to withstand the pain. Swiftly, he got out of bed. He straightened his back, looking every

bit the soldier he once was.

"If news about my injury got out, Beckett Group would surely be affected. | must not crumble, let alone allow others to have a

chance to take advantage of us."
