Dripping in sweat, Xavier went up and stood behind Jasper right away. He stared fixedly at the screen of theputer.
After inserting the memory card, Jasper fast-forwarded to check the surveillance recording and listen to the recorded sounds.
"Mr. Beckett, the dashcam can only record scenes outside the car and not anything from within the car. All we can listen to are the
sounds.
"If anyone had actually pried the doors open and snuck into the car to install anything, we wouldn't be able to see anything, "
Xavier said, feeling quite troubled.
Seconds and minutes passed.
Just as Xavier was about to nod off from watching all the footage, Jasper exclaimed, "The video has been edited."
Xavier jolted awake. He licked his lips to stop himself from drooling. "Oh? But it doesn't look like there are any differences between
the earlier and later images."
With a cold look in his eyes, Jasper lowered his earphones. "It's subtle, but the airflow sounds don't match up between the earlier
and later parts."
Jasper's visual and hearing acuity was top-notch, so much so that he could actually qualify as a master of martial arts.

"You're awesome, Mr. Beckett!"
Wide-eyed and mouth agape, Xavier gave Jasper the thumbs-up. At the stime, he was terrified. "Who could be so daring to do
such a thing right under your nose when the car was being parked at Seaview Manor?"
There was a beep.
Jasper's gaze was firm as his fingers tapped the keyboard speedily. Rows and rows of data appeared on the black screen.
Xavier held his breath and focused on watching Jasper display his hacking skills. His heart started to race just by watching him.
"Mr. Beckett, you're amazing. If only Madam was here to watch, I'm certain she would fall head over heels for you!"
"That's rubbish. Herputer skills can knock people's socks off. | am just a nobodypared to her."
Jasper's fingers paused.
The image of Alyssa showing off her hacking skills before him for the first tcto mind. He thought of that speed of her
fingers and her bright and confident smile that took his breath away.
That was the stunning Alyssa Taylor, who was one-of-a-kind, and even now, the memory of her brilliance stirred emotions deep
within him.
Xavier blinked. He pursed his lips together and giggled silently.
The trauma to Jasper's brain destroyed the emotional center of his brain. Yet, it could not wipe out his undying love for Alyssa deep
in his heart.
A few minutes later, the deleted data in the memory card was restored.
"Oh my word... Someone got into your car!"
As Xavier watched the footage, he almost jumped out of his skin to see a man sneaking into Jasper's car.
"Does he look familiar to you?" Jasper narrowed his eyes and asked in an icy tone.
Xavier furrowed his brows. "Hmm... He looks... a little..."
"He is one of my brother's bodyguards."
Xavier was so utterly blown away by Jasper's abilities that he almost fell to his knees. "Mr. Beckett, he's such an insignificant
person... You actually remember who he is?"
"As long as it is someone who showed up by Justin's side, even just once, | will remember them."

Xavier was inplete awe.
"I knew it. Mr. Justin was harboring evil intentions. He returned to steal your power. He's just a big bad wolf sitting in a wheelchair!"
Xavier was burning in anger. "Not only does he want to steal your power, but he also wants to steal Madam from you. He wants to
take all that belongs to you!"
Jasper staggered, his breath growing uneven. Was it the realization of Justin's manipulative schemes or the idea that Justin might
be trying to take Alyssa from him that left him shaken?
"I was the one who wanted to break up." Jasper lowered his eyes, his jaw tight as if holding on to that single truth.
"But he played tricks behind your back and plotted against you. These are facts that you cannot deny!"
Xavier was about to fly off the handle. "If he dared to tamper with your car, what's stopping him from hiding a camera in your
study the next time?
Every question was stirring something up in Jasper's heart.
If the purpose of Justin's return this twas to take away that which belonged to him, why did he give his all to save him from the
kidnappers back then?
Had Justin always been like this? Or had his heart hardened over the years, changing him from the kind brother he once was?
