Chapter 880: Chapter 880

Despite the dim environment, Julien noticed the anger and tears in Jonah’s eyes. It was a shock to him.

Jonah was oblivious to his allure at that moment. Julien was deeply attracted to the pain and vulnerability underneath Jonah’s tough exterior.

Jonah collected himself and fixed his gaze on Julien. “What’s the matter?”

Squinting, Julien approached Jonah slowly. Their eyes met, and their breaths intermingled.

Suddenly, Julien reached out and gently caressed the corner of Jonah’s eye. Jonah’s heart raced, and his breathing grew heavy.

“I know you feel bad for your sister. I understand your feeling,” Julien whispered into Jonah’s ear. “But promise me, don’t do anything rash. You wouldn’t want to worry your princess, right? I’ll be worried about you, too.”

Jonah’s ears turned red. Some unknown emotions stirred within.

Julien straightened his back and put on an impish smile once more. “I won’t ask for a ride because you’re busy. Looks like I can’t go home anytime soon. I should buy a car at the dealership later so I can go around easier.

“Jonah, do you know anyone at the dealership? Can I get a discount?”

Jonah, breathing heavily, grabbed Julien’s wrist. Julien’s eyes wavered, and his heart was beating like crazy.

Jonah, pursing his lips, drew Julien closer to his heaving chest. He remarked, “Giving you a ride doesn’t take up much time. Pick any car you like from the underground garage when you return to Heightsnew Villa.”

Jasper did not take anything for two days except for some water. He was sleeping for the rest of the time.

Xavier, gravely concerned, stayed beside him to take care of him. He even prayed for Jasper’s health.

He’d rather be the one suffering than see Jasper suffer.

Ever since Jasper left Alyssa, he had been living in hell.

Landon called Xavier, asking, “Xavier, how’s your boss doing? Is he awake now? I’ll droj “Mr. Landon, you don’t have to. He’s sleeping after taking his meds,” Xavier replied in frust “Did he take the medicine for his sickness, or did he just pop some sleeping pills? He’s been sleeping a lot after taking his meds. If he’s not doing well, I’ll secretly get him to the hospital.”

“It’s fine, Mr. Landon. The other doctors cannot be of help to Mr. Beckett if even Dr. White is stumped by his condition.” Xavier turned to look at Jasper with a heavy heart, musing, “Sometimes, I wonder if there’s a need to take the medicine.”

“Why so?”

“The side effects are severe. The medicine will cure Mr. Beckett’s tremors, but he will vomit frequently and feel drowsy. It feels like just another form of suffering. I’m worried that he’ll be a mess if he keeps taking the medicine.”

Hearing that, Landon went speechless in disbelief.

“Mr. Beckett has sacrificed a lot for Ms. Alyssa. She’s the reason he’s suffering today. Why can’t she give him a chance?” Xavier blurted out without thinking.

“Xavier, don’t say that,” Landon warned and, after a pause, sighed. “Lyse has never done anything wrong to Jasper. It seems like Jasper is going through a tough time now. Just think of it as making up for his mistake.”
