Chapter 2498

On the other end of the hallway, Jasper stood with his back to the glow of the setting sun. His tall,manding figure made him

look like a flawless, timeless sculpture.

"Why should | check on him?" Alyssa asked, lowering her gaze. The sheer restraint she exerted made her voice stiff—so much so

that it hardly sounded like her own.

"Jasper is injured. He most likely hurt himself while fighting the assailant." Standing beside her, Justin calmly studied Alyssa's

expressionless face. "No matter what, it happened because he wanted to save you—"

"Things are truly over between him and me," Alyssa interrupted. "I've already turned back once for his sake. | won't put myself

through that again."

The resolve in her striking eyes made the man before her seem like nothing more than a stranger. "l only have one heart. | don't

wish to waste it on someone irrelevant anymore. Lettake you home, Mr. Justin."

A broad smile spread across Justin's face. "Alright," he replied.

The two of them walked away right in front of Jasper.

He parted his lips slightly, but a lump lodged in his throat, leaving him unable to utter a single word.

"Mr. Jasper, I've picked up your prescribed medications. Let's go," Xavier said as he hurried over.

When he saw Alyssa supporting Justin as they left, helplessness and frustration washed over him. He blurted out, "Ms. Alyssa...

How could she do this? Why does she have to get so close to that scorpion? At the very least, she should consider how this would

make you feel, Mr. Jasper."

"Why should she care about how | feel? We no longer have any ties." His eyes remained fixed on the direction Alyssa had gone, his

gaze dark and somber. Slowly, he clenched his bandaged hand into a fist at his side. "Right now, to Alyssa, Justin is the most

important person."

Even Xavier felt his heart ache at those words.

He had witnessed Jasper and Alyssa's story from start to finish. Once, they had loved each other with unshakable devotion,

standing together through life and death alike. Even when the sky seemed to collapse, they clung tightly to one another.

Now, they had be strangers who understood each other better than anyone else. Worse still, Jasper had to watch the woman

he once loved stand beside his enemy. Every encounter felt like another piece of his heart being carved away.

"Mr. Jasper, your wound has reopened!" Xavier cried out in alarm, staring at the blood soaking through the bandage.

"It's nothing," Jasper replied, his face pale as he strode forward. "Let's go."

After seeing Justin off to his car, Alyssa received a call from Lyla. Winston had moved his fingers unexpectedly earlier that day, and

his heart monitor had shown unusual fluctuations—signs that he might be regaining consciousness.
