Alyssa was relieved that she wasn't a fan of gay romance. Otherwise, she would
have found herself constantly swooning over Jonah and Julien.
"Anyway, I was shocked that Aidan Lovelace would show up alone and behave in
such a nasty manner," Jasper remarked.
He placed her on the couch, cradling her head in his lap and gently massaging
her abdomen.
The look in his eyes darkened when he recalled the confrontation just now.
Fortunately, Alyssa hadn't gotten bullied just now, or he didn't know what he
might do to Aidan.
"He might be unruly, but I'm sure getting slapped twice shook him up," Alyssa
said, wrapping her arms around Jasper's neck, her breath teasing his skin.
She continued, "The Lovelaces' arrogance stems from their recent success in
medical research. Hence, their business. They're on the brink of a breakthrough
in Parkinson's treatment.
"If they succeed, Lovelace Pharmaceuticals will dominate the market globally.
The wealth they'll accumulate is unimaginable."
"That explains their attitude. They might start looking down not only on the
Taylors but on all the esteemed families combined," Jasper remarked, shaking
his head.
"I understand them taking pride in their success, but they shouldn't get ahead of
themselves." Jasper snickered. "The Beckett Group does not operate in the
medical field, but it's common knowledge that there are many obstacles in the
road of developing a new drug.
"Lovelace Pharmaceuticals should rationally assess their capability in
monopolizing the field."
"There's one more reason, and it's because of Winston. Mandy stuck by Winston
for years without any legal title. The Lovelaces must've exploited his guilt,
sending Aidan to humiliate us." Alyssa slapped her thigh in anger.
She added, "I'm furious every time I picture Winston getting back to work before
he's fully recovered. We can't do much if he refuses to take care of his health!"
"Don't worry, Lyse. He's in good hands with Mr. Benton," Jasper reassured her,
gently pinching her waist. "Why don't you take a nap? We'll pick up Winston from
work later. How does that sound?"
She kissed him on her lips, her eyes colored with joy and contentment.
Back at the KS Group headquarters in Belbanks, Winston carried on with his
work like usual, but he wasn't fully himself. However, he had no choice but to
show up to work to boost the company's morale. If the rumors weren't squashed,
his rivals would start planning a move against him.
After performing his routine checks in the headquarters and attending a board
meeting, Winston rushed back to rest in his office without bothering to take his
lunch.
He took off his jacket and slumped on the couch. Drenched in sweat, he felt
utterly drained and depleted.
"Mr. Winston, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Neil hurried in with water
and medicine for Winston.
"Neil, I think my time is almost up," Winston remarked wryly.

Neil flashed a faint smile, offering no comment on the comparison.
Winston sighed. "I'm not being paranoid. I really feel the toll on my health after
waking up from this coma.”
