Chapter 56

Rosie was taken aback. She couldn’t believe Jasper didn’t see through the cunning girl’s

pathetic act. He was indeed a fool.

At this moment, Jasper picked up a black umbrella. His face was calm as he pushed the

door open.

“Hey! Mr. Jasper!” Rosie anxiously called out.

Jasper continued to walk out with the umbrella. Rosie was so frustrated she stomped her

foot.

Outside the door, Liana sat helplessly in the rain, unable to hold on any longer. But as

soon as she saw Jasper walking toward her, she became overjoyed. She turned on her

charm and pitifully wept as she collapsed forward.

Jasper’s eyebrows furrowed. He walked up to her. He held the umbrella over her while

using the other hand to forcefully lift her from the ground. His demeanor was firm and

adamant, so she could not break free even if she wanted to.

“Jasper …” Liana murmured, then threw herself into his embrace.

Just moments ago, she seemed frail. But now, she miraculously revived in his presence.

She wrapped her arms tightly around his sturdy waist and leaned against his chest.

A sense of irritability surged in Jasper’s heart, and he spoke softly, “You have a weak body.

Staying under the rain will make you sick.”

“You wouldn’t have met me if I didn’t do this. I just wanted to see you. Why won’t you

meet me?” Liana raised her pale and miserable face, her gaze filled with panic and

confusion. “Jasper … do you no longer love me? Lately, you’ve been cold toward me. Is it

because of the incident with the suit? I know I was wrong. I’ll apologize to Alice and beg

for her forgiveness. Is that enough?”

“There’s no need. I’m no longer angry,” Jasper said indifferently. “You’ve seen me now, so

you can rest assured. Go home and stay with your family. I will find you once things settle

down.”

“Jasper, please… save my brother, okay?” Liana realized he was becoming impatient, and

her face flushed with anxiety. She put down her pride as a wealthy young lady and clung

tightly to his muscular body.

“My brother is about to be sentenced! No lawyer in Solana City dared to defend him

because of the Taylor family’s power and influence. They have gone too far and are

pushing the Gardner family to the edge! Jasper, you must help us! My family is almost

bankrupt. Everything will fall apart once my brother goes to prison! Please, I beg you.”

Jasper’s gaze remained cold and firm, his tall figure unwavering.

Some might call him heartless, but his love for Liana was persistent. He had kept his

promise as a young man until he turned thirty, even if it meant hurting another woman

who deeply loved him, and even if it meant bearing the title of an unfilial grandson, he

was determined to marry her.

Some might call him compassionate, but he was impartial and resolute when it came to

official matters. The Gardner family committed a crime, and he showed no mercy. He was

as cold and decisive as a judge in the court of law.

At this moment, Jasper recalled his ruthless words to Alyssa when negotiating on behalf of

the Gardner family and how he used the issue with the Gardner family against Alice. He

was instantly filled with regret, and his tone turned frigid.

“The Taylor family is innocent, and your brother is the one who brought this upon himself. I

suggest he confess and seek a lighter sentence. That’s the right thing to do. As for the

Gardner family, your family should reflect on their mistakes. One rotten apple spoils the

bunch. Even if I were to give you another billion, there’s no hope if you don’t address the

issues within your own family.”

Liana’s lips trembled, and she was dumbfounded. She had thought that by crying and

acting miserable, Jasper would soften and comply with her as he had done before.

But she was wrong this time. Jasper used to be lenient with her because she hadn’t

crossed a line. But once she overstepped her

boundaries, he wouldn’t show mercy even to the woman he loved.

In the end, Jasper forced Liana, still crying, into the car, instructing the driver to lock the

doors. He watched her leave with a tense

expression, and only then did he sigh a breath of relief.

He stood in the rain with the black umbrella for a long time, remembering the

disappointed look in Alice’s eyes. There was a pang in his

heart. He couldn’t stop it even if he wanted to.

With Dylan’s arrest, the Gardner family fell into complete desolation.

Mr. and Mrs. Gardner were not even concerned as Liana returned, covered in mud, her

face pale and lifeless. They immediately asked if the Beckett family would intervene on

behalf of them or if they would help in hiring a powerful lawyer. However, Liana could only

shake her

head anxiously with a dejected expression.
