Chapter 711

Jasper finally felt relieved upon hearing Alyssa’s promise. Grateful and nearly moved to

tears, he uttered,

Thank you, Lyse.”

Even though Alyssa appeared stoic, she was touched by the scene.

Shortly after, Javier excused himself to attend an important meeting at the Beckett Group.

Ever since Alyssa’s identity as Dr. White had been revealed, she had been appointed as

Jasper’s attending physician and tasked with overseeing his follow-up treatments.

After inquiring about Jasper’s condition, she placed him in a wheelchair and instructed

Landon and Abel

to take him for a checkup.

After their departure, only Alyssa, Newton, and Ben remained in the room.

Since there wasn’t anyone around, Newton inquired, “Alice, you seem down. Is there

something on your

mind?”

She snapped back to reality and denied sheepishly, “No, Grandpa. I’m fine.”

Newton expressed concern as he gently reminded her, ‘Alice, you can get away with lies

from others, but not from me. Are there complications related to Jasper’s injury?”

“Grandpa…”

“You shouldn’t keep it from me. You know me well. Just tell me the truth because I can

handle it. However, if you keep it a secret, I’ll lose my appetite and sleep.

After some contemplation, she finally turned to Ben and requested, ‘Mr. Gorham, could

you excuse us?”

Ben understood the directive and left the room, closing the door behind him.

“Jasper has PTSD?” Newton asked in a trembling voice. He felt his heart twisting.

“Yes. It’s my fault, Grandpa,” Alyssa murmured, lowering her head and fidgeting with her

fingers. She added, “He wouldn’t be in this condition if I were more skilled.”

“Please don’t blame yourself, Alice. Without your help, Jasper might not have survived the

ordeal,”

Newton consoled her.

He clasped her hands with a somber expression and said, “Promise me something, will

you? You must

“For now, only Dr. Liverton and I are aware of the diagnosis. Grandpa, don’t worry. Dr.

Liverton is a

trustworthy acquaintance of mine. He’ll keep it confidential,” she reassured.

Then, she frowned and whispered, “Grandpa, there are no other solutions to his PTSD

except for taking sedatives now. Besides, I have no idea when and where he would be

triggered. The secret could be

exposed at any time. What if…”

“Let’s do our best to keep it under wraps as long as possible. At the very least, we should

do so until

Jasper takes over the company and inherits the majority of the shares and assets,”

Newton replied, looking concerned and clenching his fist.

He added, “No one else should lead the company except Jasper. If others find out about

his diagnosis, they might use it against him. His position as president could be

jeopardized, not to mention inheriting

the company.”

Alyssa felt thoroughly puzzled. After deep consideration, she prodded, “Grandpa, under

normal

circumstances, the family business would go to the eldest, which means Justin should

have been the heir

of the Beckett Group.

“I heard that Justin has been recuperating at Mosgravia due to his poor health. I always

assumed that

Jasper was made the heir only because of Justin’s health, but your earlier comment

suggests there’s

more to the story. What’s behind your insistence on making Jasper the heir?”

Newton looked alarmed. He swallowed hard and fell silent.
