Chapter 1022
Axel seemed to have inherited the Taylors’ traits of being vindictive
and bitter.
Every time Axel thought of how Jasper treated his sister, he couldn’t help but take a jab at Jasper. For a
second, he almost forgot that Jasper was battling for his life in the operating room.
“He faced bullying in school due to his background, but he hid his wounds to avoid worrying his mom.
He never shared his struggles
with her.”
Axel interjected angrily, “Fuck! I hate school bullies the most! They are pure evil.” Crushing his cigarette
box, he felt a fire burning within.” Why was Jasper so weak? He could have beaten the hell out of them.
I couldn’t believe that Jasper Beckett was bullied. He should ha rammed them with his Rolls-Royce or
something.”
“It’s easy to go against a guy or two, but what happens when bullies you?” Landon questioned with
pangs of sympathy.
Axel’s eyes wavered as he inadvertently clenched his fists.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLandon explained, “Axel, you were born to Mr. Taylor and the woma he loved the most, and you were
raised pampered. Just like you, I grew up in a relatively simple family-the only son to loving parents.
People like us will never understand Jasper’s pain of bearing the mark of an illegitimate child. We
probably will never understand the pressure of walking on thin ice at home.”
Axel fell into deep thoughts upon hearing that. Indeed, Jasper was the
child of Javier Beckett’s lover, and he had an older half-brother. Later
on, Javier married the calculative and cruel Sophia Kirkman. Since then, Jasper had been suffering in
silence.

“That’s why I said I was Jasper’s only friend. He is averse to making. new friends, or in other words, he
has sealed off his heart. Besides, he’s used to loneliness and is fine being alone.”
However, no one would truly enjoy solitude. Those who lived in
solitude were the ones who had no choice.
Axel blurted out, “I take back what I said.”
“What?”
“Looks like the Harper family raises their children well. At least you. did not blindly bully Jasper just
because everyone ganged up against
him.”
Axel’s remark reminded Landon of Zoe’s horrible behavior and her devilish expression, which he would
rather forget when she bullied.
Lauren.
Smiling bitterly, he secretly blamed himself for not guiding hi
onto the right path. He felt as if he had failed as Zoe’s father
life.
“You might look like a fool, but you’re a good egg,” Axel remarked, patting Landon on the shoulder
when he walked past. “Jasper Beck will have one more friend starting today.”
Feeling touched, Landon turned around, only to find Axel disappearing
toward the end of the corridor.
Meanwhile, Jonah and Miley kept Alyssa company in the corridor outside the operating room, anxiously
waiting for the surgery to end.

hugged Alyssa and sensed the lack of warmth on Alyssa’s skin.

Not only that, Alyssa was trembling. Miley worried that Alyssa’s. health might suffer from pulling an all-
nighter.
Alyssa insisted, “I’m fine. I’ll just wait here. I’m too worried to fall asleep anyway when he’s still in
surgery.”
“Lyse.” Jonah sat beside her and questioned sternly, “What are your thoughts on Inigo Montoye-the
person that the police chief
mentioned?”
Hearing that, Miley grumbled, “Gosh, Jonah. Let Lyse take a rest. Can’t you discuss this another day?
Jeremy and I will also pressure the Tsulu authorities to look into this case. We won’t let this slip.”
Alyssa gently patted Miley on the arm and reassured her, “It’s fine, Miley. I wanted to discuss it too.”
She turned to Jonah with a somber look and said, “Jonah, I find the attack on you and Jasper at
Shelland Island quite suspicious.”
