Finally, Mandy handed Alyssa the two medications, one for internal injuries and the other
for external
wounds, both developed by Lovelace Pharmaceuticals.
The next day, Alyssa tasked Sean to deliver the drugs to Jasper.
Weirdly, Jasper had his pride in front of his romantic rival and refused to show his weak
side. When he
noticed that Sean arrived alone, his disappointment swelled as he had hoped to see
Alyssa.
In an instant, his high spirits crumbled. “Where is she?”
He leaned his stocky body against the headboard. He looked pitiful, with a hint of
loneliness etched
between his brows.
None of it mattered when Alyssa wasn’t there for his pity party.
“Ms. Alyssa is busy. She wanted me to deliver these to you,” Sean answered.
Placing the package of rare medications by the headboard, he cast a chilly glance at
Jasper’s pale face.

“She mentioned that the external injury medication should be applied thrice a day, while
the one for
internal injury should be applied once a day.
“I’ll send you a new batch of medications half a month later. They’re like targeted drugs
and will help curb
the symptoms.
“However, taking the medications also leads to side effects such as nausea and dizziness.
The
symptoms vary from person to person.
“Let her know immediately if you have a strong reaction to the medications. Got it?”
Throughout Sean’s explanation, Jasper remained silent.
“Those medications sound quite potent. Will it affect the patient’s health?” Xavier
mumbled doubtfully.
He was concerned about the side effects but hesitated to voice his worry too strongly,
given that the
medications came from Alyssa.
“If he’s worried about adverse effects, he can choose not to take them. The decision is
entirely up to him.
That’s it.”
With that, Sean was ready to leave.
“I will not take the medications,” Jasper suddenly declared, causing Sean to whirl around.
Sean exclaimed, “You won’t? What do you mean?”

Alyssa had specifically ordered Sean to ensure that Jasper took the medication on time, or
he would
suffer from health consequences.
Surprisingly, that bastard told Sean that he had no intention to take the medications. Sean
now worried
that he might not complete the mission.
“I will not take them unless Alyssa sees me.” Jasper gazed down and coughed feebly. “I
saved her life 13
years ago and did it again. Even if she hates me after the divorce, I’m still her savior. She
can’t just
dismiss me like this.”
“Jasper Beckett, you-” Sean began, intending to accuse Jasper of selfishness, but Jasper
interrupted him.

Take care of him?
Sean’s eyes reddened with anger, and his knuckles turned white. Among everyone else,
Jasper was the
last person who had the right to demand anything from Alyssa. He was truly shameless.
“That’s right! Mr. Beckett has endured a lot over the years to save Ms. Alyssa,” Xavier
chimed in. He might
be slow, but he understood what Jasper was getting at.
He added, “Mr. Beckett is in pain all over his body. He can’t eat or sleep well and even
coughed up blood
again this morning. I’m really worried he won’t make it through the day. It’s quite heartless
of Ms. Alyssal
to treat her savior this way, don’t you think?”
Jasper raised an eyebrow, thinking that Xavier had gone too far. Sean gritted his teeth and
left the room.
After the door slammed shut, Jasper’s shoulders slumped. Just a minute ago, he had stood
on the moral
high ground, but now he appeared dispirited and downcast.
Without warning, he leaned forward and heaved a mouthful of blood.
