NovelEnglishOn the way back to Crescent Bay, Xavier was driving with Ben in the passenger seat while Newton and Jasper sat in the back.
Typically, they would chat endlessly, but they seemed unusually silent tonight.
As they neared their destination, Newton sighed and placed his weathered hand on Jasper's shoulder. "Jasper, I know Justin went too far tonight and upset you." "I'm fine, Grandpa," Jasper replied with a faint smile. Under the dim light, his face was indescribably handsyet cold.
"Don't take it to heart, Jasper," Newton continued to comfort him.

He was Alyssa's husband, not a doormat. He couldn't tolerate any man harboring intentions toward Lyse under any pretext.
"I think Justin won't stay too long. He'll probably return to Mosgravia in a few days. In places where he's present, try not to let Alyssa show up." Newton continued, "Alyssa is such an outstanding girl. She's so captivating and radiant that men can't help but be drawn to her. No matter how composed and aloof a man may appear, his true nature will reveal itself when he encounters a woman he's interested in.
"This is especially true for men from our family. When they find someone they're attracted to, they throw conventional ethics out the window. Your clueless dad is a perfect example." Newton shook his head incessantly.
Javier was probably sneezing continuously by now, wondering who the heck was talking behind his back.
"Grandpa, love isn't about constraints and control. Love is about understanding and companionship." Jasper's voice was low and firm, but his long lashes hid a certain emotion. "Lyse just needs to be herself. I can protect her. And I have confidence that no one can separate us." "Oh, silly, the world is complex. Just because you two have a good relationship doesn't mean you can rest easy. Look at Lauren and Landon. Don't they have a good relationship? But they still endured so much torment. Landon almost lost his life just to have a chance to stay with Lauren." "Grandpa, you seem to be quite emotional tonight. What's wrong?" Jasper couldn't help but frown in confusion.
Newton took a deep breath and said solemnly, "In any case, you and Alyssa should try to avoid interacting with Justin as much as possible. And if one day Justin returns to Solana City, no matter what he does, try to avoid direct conflicts with him." Jasper's expression turned cold and serious as he said, "Grandpa, you know I'm not someone who's afraid to take a stand or shy away from challenges. It's true that Justin saved me, but that doesn't mean I'll let him suppressforever and give in to everything without limits.
"If one day he does something I can't tolerate, even if Dad supports him, I won't let it slide." "You must endure what others cannot to achieve great things!" Newton's face reddened, clearly getting agitated. "What if Justin asksto give up the position of president?" Jasper's eyes darkened as he posed a key question.
The atmosphere in the car beceven more oppressive.
Sensing the deadlock between Newton and Jasper, Ben and Xavier sat upright, not daring to make a sound.

Newton slowly clenched his fist and spoke each word seriously. "Just om don't confront him head-on. As long als maround, he won't be able to take the position of heir. The heir I favor has always been you." .
"Grandpa..." Jasper's expression showed his surprise as waves of emotion surged within him.
.
"If Justin really has designs on the position of heir, I'll deal with him You won't need to intervene. Pdon't want to see my most beloved grandson see my caught in the crossfire." .

Newton firmly held Jasper's hand, letting his warmth pass onto Jasper. "Listen to me. Alwise man keeps his abilities hidden and strikes at the right moment." .
After dropping off Newton, Jasper's car headed toward Alyssa's villa.
