Landon sucked in a deep breath upon hearing that. Jasper had requested for a gun so nonchalantly. It was as if he was asking for a set of utensils.
âTsulu has a nickname-the lawless territory. Jeffrey must be familiar. with the place to choose to escape there. He probably has an accomplice to intercept him there. So, we canât let our guard down on this trip. We have to prepare for the worst.â
He ended the call solemnly. Shortly after that, Jasper received a call from Javier.
Jasperâs frown deepened. He ended Landonâs call and answered Javierâs call.
âJasper, the chairman of Jesselton Incorporated in Mosgravia, wants to go on a video conference with us tomorrow afternoon. He wanted to discuss the strategy for our partnership with them and the Beckett Groupâs future advancement in Mosgravia. Both of us need present for this,â Javier informed him coldly.
Without a second thought, Jasper said, âI have an important m attend to tomorrow. I wonât be able to attend it.â
âWhat do you mean? What is more important than this? You have do what it takes and cancel everything.â Javier was so angry that he slammed the table.
âLike I said, I canât attend tomorrow,â Jasper repeated indifferently. Nothing was more important than the things that had to do with Alyssa.
Javier was outraged. âYou are the president of the Beckett Group.
How can you be this irresponsible? What is the use of me keeping Exactly. What is the use?â Jasper laughed perfunctorily.
He might have been on the other end of the line, yet he was intimidating. âThink about it. There is no use. It only sped up your goal 10 be the richest man in Solana City by a decade.â
âHow dare you!â It was as if something had caught in Javierâs throat. he had nothing to say.
if it werenât for Newton, who was great at recognizing talent and selected the talented Jasper as president, he would still be in an endless battle against the Schmidt Group. is there anything else? If not, I have other things to attend to. Goodbye.â
JJasper itâs terrible how you neglect your duties and stay passive. One day, you will have to pay for your actions.â
Jassper stared at his black phone screen. A bold and relieved smile appeared.it was harsh to assume he didnât care about the Beckett GGroup, Itwassis career. He worked day and night relentlessly. He w haarchhat he fell ill. He had even sacrificed all his time. He live mechaaitient clock down to the very second.
Dosone chaat be didnât give it a second thought and chose Alyssa ov his career botiming was more important than the woman he loved.
The nexxodayJasspen and Alyssa washed up and ate breakfast early in the rootingghneychanged imo their outfits for the funeral and went out tooemeer They stood sides beside at the Villaâs entrance, glancing at each other Jasper stared deeply at Alyssa, and Alyssa, too, couldnât keep her eyes off him.
Alyssa donned her usual black suit, a creation of her own design. However, her lips lacked the usual eye-catching red hue. An elegant and solemn white flower replaced the brooch that typically adorned her outfit.
She was beautiful yet solemn. Anyone could tell the grief from her countenance.
Jasper parted his lips slightly. He had always wanted to tell her about the first time he saw her in a black suit at the auction after their divorce.
His heartstrings tugged when he saw her appearing in the black suit and red lips before him.
âGood morning, Mr. Beckett,â Alyssa greeted him.
âGood morning, Lyse,â Jasper responded.
âLet us go now.â
The word âusâ left a tear in Jasperâs eyes as his blood boiled with passion.
