Chapter 996: Chapter 996

Alyssa clenched her fists in resentment, and her voice became choked. “An innocent girl has already died because of me, Dr. McAlister. I can’t let anything happen to you. I really can’t bear it. anymore.”

Hearing this, Tristan lowered his head in guilt. “Ms. Alyssa, I just wanted to do something for you for the last time. I just wanted to vent your grievances… I didn’t know it would cause you so much. trouble. I’m really sorry.”

“You don’t know Sophia and Betty enough, but I do. Betty may not have Sophia’s intelligence, but she inherited Sophia’s ruthlessness. perfectly.

“Her impulsive actions make her even more ruthless than Sophia. Sophia still considers consequences, but relying on being Javier’s daughter and having the Beckett Group backing her, Betty acts without regard for consequences.”

“My sister was cautious and had me lurking near your hospital.”

The man sitting in the passenger seat took off his black mask, revealing a face that would make anyone’s heart skip a beat.

“As soon as you left, I followed you, afraid that Betty would find someone to harm you. Well, it turns out that Lyse was right. That little bitch won’t hold a grudge overnight.)

“This is…?” Tristan asked.

“My fourth brother.” Alyssa parted her lips and sweetly smiled at Axel.

Axel responded with a wink, and the tense atmosphere in the car instantly filled with warmth.

Tristan was greatly surprised, then self-mockingly smiled.

There were always capable people protecting Alyssa.

As long as he protected himself and didn’t cause trouble for her, it was the greatest help he could offer Alyssa sent Tristan to the hospital and then sent two bodyguards to ensure his safety. Only then did she feel at ease.

At this moment, Axel walked over with a serious expression.

“Lyse, you really have a keen sense. Your ex-husband and Harper really went to Tsulu. It seems Jasper wanted to confront Jeffrey. behind your back.”

Alyssa felt a pang in her heart.

Although she had guessed that Jasper’s so-called business trip was a lie and he was actually chasing Jeffrey, having the suspicion confirmed still brought an overwhelming sense of fear.

“Was it Jonah who told you?”

“Jonah is already on his way to Tsulu. He told you not to worry. He’ll take care of everything for you.”

“Tsulu is different from here. We can do whatever we want there.”

Alyssa frowned, pacing back and forth. “We investigated Jeffrey before. He was a mercenary in Tsulu with his own forces. These forces are deeply rooted in Tsulu, and even the officials can’t deal with them.

“They might even provide them with protection when needed. Jasper going there recklessly, unable to catch Jeffrey, is one thing. I’m afraid he might get himself into trouble.”

“Jonah has connections in Tsulu. When he arrives, have him watch. out for your ex-husband.”

Axel remained nonchalant, still wearing a wicked smile. “I’m looking. forward to Jasper’s performance this time. I’ve heard you talk about how fierce and formidable he was when he was in the Peacekeeping Forces.

“I’ve heard it until I’m tired of hearing it. Let’s see how he performs now that the opportunity has come.”

“Axel! Are you heartless?”

Alyssa’s eyes turned red from anger, and she clenched her fists, tightly. “This time, he’s going into a lion’s den alone, and he doesn’t even have a decent weapon. He’s also bringing along Landon, who’s a liability. Someone might die! If something happens to him, I … I…

“Who are you going to marry, right?”

Axel put his hands in his pockets and leaned close to her face. His eyes were tinged with slyness and affection.

Alyssa blushed with embarrassment, about to playfully hit him, but suddenly, a thought crossed her mind.

The Taylor family had some influential people, even more powerful than Jonah.

They could help Jasper.
