Alyssa let out a laugh. "Hello, sir. I am new here."

She flashed a sweet smile that reached her eyes. "There have been more people admitted here recently, so Ms. Gillis tasked me with helping out at the last minute.

"Oh, I see."

Since Alyssa mentioned Sheryl's name, despite being new, the bodyguard believed her right away. He said, "Don't wander around aimlessly. There's a male patient who just arrived today. He's extremely important to Ms. Gillis. Go over there immediately and see if she needs any assistance."

Relieved that the bodyguard's suspicions were dispelled, Alyssa felt the tension in her body ease. She responded hastily, "Sure, I'll head over right away!"

Meanwhile, at the best hospital in Solana City, Jasper had been transferred to a regular ward for observation after his condition stabilized.

However, his collapse in front of the Beckett Group's board members caused a significant stir within the corporation, and rumors started spreading like wildfire.

Justin, who was known to have poor health, appeared robust and energetic. On the other hand, Jasper, in his prime, now seemed fragile and unwell.

Within a few hours, whispers about Justin reclaiming his position as heir and taking over Jasper's role began circulating across Beckett Group's internal departments.

"Doctor, how is my son doing?" Javier grabbed the doctor in the hallway and inquired anxiously.

"Mr. Javier, please try not to worry. Mr. Jasper's life is not in danger. However..

The doctor hesitated, a flicker of doubt crossing his face. "His symptoms are more complex than they seem. It doesn't appear to be just an acute episode."

Standing behind, Justin lifted the corners of his lips slightly at the news. A sly expression flashed across his elegant face, but he quickly concealed it.

Javier paled in his panic. "What exactly is going on?"

*Unfortunately, I can only make a conclusive diagnosis once we have his blood test results.

After the doctor left, Justin stepped forward, helping Javier sit down in a nearby chair. In a warm tone, he consoled, "Dad, don't worry too much. Unlike me, Jasper has always been strong and healthy. He'll pull through."

*Healthy... Will he really recover fully?"

Javier hit his chest with his fist and stomped his foot in frustration. "Ever since Jasper survived that brain injury, he hasn't been the same. Physically or mentally. And all of it... it's because of that Taylor family girl! She's

nothing but trouble, bringing chaos to our family!"

'Dad, please don't speak of Ms. Alyssa that way.'

Justin's gaze darkened subtly, though his voice remained steady. "In my eyes, Ms. Alyssa is perfect. She has never hurt Jasper. Everything that happened was due to his own choices. I hope you'll refrain from speaking ill of her again and get along amicably with her in the future."

Javier was stunned. He looked into Justin's dark eyes and probed, "Justin, you... You're serious about Alyssa?"

Justin smiled tenderly and answered, "Of course. I have never felt this way about anyone else."

Javier knitted his brows together. "Must it be her? There are millions of good women out th-"NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Justin interjected firmly, "It has to be her. So, I hope that you'll give us blessings, Dad."

'Justin, you've had a difficult life. You stayed away from me for years, never asking for much. You want to pursue her now that Jasper and Alyssa are no longer together. While I'm not happy about it, I won't stand in your way.

'But Alyssa comes from a prominent family. She's stubborn and deeply devoted to Jasper. Remember, she even married him against her father's wishes! Even if I propose marriage on your behalf and try my best to bring you two together, would she agree?

"And Winston-he's fiercely protective of Jasper as his son-in-law. Would he ever accept someone else, especially Jasper's older brother?" Javier's face was clouded with worry.

Justin lowered his gaze and chuckled softly. "You're right. But I believe everything will fall into place."

Everything would change.

That kidnapping incident had irrevocably altered his life and Jasper's. Now, he would reclaim everything that was rightfully his, putting things back where they belonged.

"Dad, just hypothetically speaking," Justin said, patting Javier's back gently. His voice was calm yet calculating. What would you do if Jasper were unable to shoulder Beckett Group's responsibilities due to his health?"

Javier rested his head in his hands, visibly troubled. "That's the problem. Who could run the corporation in his stead if something were to happen to him?"

Justin leaned closer, his tone soft yet deliberate. "If you trust me, I wouldn't mind temporarily managing the corporation on Jasper's behalf until he recovers."
