"I'm surprised you've still got an appetite, Jasper. I wouldn't have any appetite at all if I were you." Silas

chugged an entire cup of cold water. He slammed his cup on the table and said, "The hearing for

Sophia's case officially begins next Friday."

Everyone hadn't seen Sophia in a long time. Their faces turned gloomy at the mention of her name.

"I know. I've been counting down the days."

Jasper twitched his eyebrow slightly. His voice was tense and hoarse. He was doing his utmost best to

suppress the sharp pain in his heart.

"There hasn't been a day when I forgot how my mother died. I have not forgotten about seeking

revenge on behalf of my mother and all the innocent lives that Sophia had claimed. Not for a single

day."

Alyssa's heart raced. The tears in her eyes glistened slightly. Under the table, she reached over slowly

for Jasper's hand. She held his hand tightly.

Jasper interlocked his fingers with hers immediately, as if he was grasping onto the only ray of light in

the dark. He gazed deeply into her eyes.

"I was feeling curious a few days ago, so I went to find out about Sophia's situation at the detention

center. She has made use of her identity as the wife of a tycoon to buy people off. She even has some

followers. She has adapted well and is living a good life there.

"I heard that she is served special meals every day. She even has skincare products to use and

cigarettes to smoke."

Cyrus clenched his teeth tight. He sniggered, "It looks like your father hasn't given up on Sophia

completely. He's still covering for her, at least on the surface level. He should be intending to get her

released."

Alyssa twitched her eyebrow. "She can use all the cosmetics and have all the special meals she likes.

There's just one thing she won't be able to do without—her diapers."

"Javier is not my father." Jasper's eyes had become bloodshot. "Ever since my mother breathed her

last, he's no longer been my father."

"Jasper..." Alyssa's chest felt tight.

"The reason I stayed at the Beckett Group all these years was because that was my mother's last wish.

She hoped that I would no longer be oppressed. She wished for me to receive Javier's

acknowledgment. She wanted me to succeed and to become the grandson that Grandpa is most proud

of.

"After that, all I wanted was to supersede Justin. I put in all the effort to prove myself so that I can take

conLrol wiLhin Lhe BeckeLL Group. However, LUIS had ausoiuLeiy Homing LO do wiLh mem.

"I jusL hoped LhaL I could fulfill my mofher's lasL wish. I wanfed fo become sfrong so fhaf I could make

her proud of me."

Jasper shuL his eyes. He felL a Lremendous pain In his heart. IL was as If a pair of Invisible hands

were punching his heavy heart.

"However, aL Lhe end of Lhe day, I was Lhe one who became a fool. For many years, I lived under Lhe

same roof as Lhe one who killed my moLher. I even worked myself io Lhe bone for Lhe sake of LhaL

coldblooded man.

"Lyse sLuck by me, and Nina sacrificed herself in exchange for such an imporLanL piece of

information. If iL hadn'L been for Lhem, my moLher would have never been able io resL in peace." Thai

said, he couldn'L bring himself io visiL his moLher's grave as long as Sophia was still alive.

"WhaL are you saying, Jasper? You're noL Lhinking of giving Lhe Beckett Group up and marrying into

our family, are you?"

Silas raised an eyebrow as he Lried Lo sLudy him. "Lyse has never had an easy day since she goL

LogeLher wiLh you. Do you wanL her io sLarL from Lhe ground up LogeLher wiLh you?"

Cyrus couldn'L sLand iL eiLher. He chimed in, "Thai's righL. Do you Lhink we would agree io your

Alyssa was rendered speechless.

These few broLhers of hers loved Lo make Lhings difficulL for oLhers. There was no doubL LhaL Lhey

WiLh indignaLion, Landon placed his hand firmly on Jasper's shoulder. "Jasper! No one else, oLher

"Why are you feeling bereaved? If you are indeed biLLer abouL iL, you should seize Lhe enLire

"Look aL JamebiLch. I would suggesL LhaL you follow his example of being ruLhless and disregarding

"ThaL's easier said Lhan done. None of you have experienced such challenges when living wiLh your

Landon shuddered. He shuL himself up immediaLely.
