Jasper's men arrived right after him. Each with a flashlight in hand, they spread out and began their

search for Alyssa.

Jasper sprinted through the heavy rain, indifferent to the fact that his pants and shoes were covered in

dirt. His blood-red eyes were brimming with concern.

"Slow down, Mr. Beckett! Watch your step!" Xavier stumbled along behind Jasper with much difficulty.

He was befuddled.

What the hell happened? Why was Alyssa at this terrible place on her own?

Alyssa took care of the four perverts. She beat them up till they were on their knees, begging for their

lives.

But it was also because of this that she had expended all her energy. She barely managed to keep

herself together even as she forced herself to stay conscious.

She had swiped one of the men's cell phones and got back in the rain. She continued walking forward

blindly.

At the same time, she was also afraid that the men would not be satisfied that they had lost and come

after her. So, she didn't dare to stop for even a second. She didn't have any energy left to fight off any

form of danger.

As she kept walking, her mind had gone completely numb. Her legs were shivering, but she kept

walking on autopilot. It felt as if her legs were no longer her own.

In the end, she couldn't take a single step forward any longer. She collapsed under a run-down pavilion

halfway down the mountain. After she felt more stabilized, she rang Jasper up.

All she was afraid of was that Jasper wouldn't be able to find her.

Some time had passed. Alyssa was curled up with her arms around her knees. She buried her head in

her arms and drifted off to sleep. She continued clutching tightly at the cell phone in her hand.

In her blurriness, she dreamt about three years ago.

She was back at the time of the accident. Fresh blood continued to flow from her. She clung to the

doctor's arm and begged him.

"Please save him... Please save my child..."

"Lyse!"

Suddenly, Alyssa heard Jasper's voice calling out to her. But she didn't have any strength left to

respond.

A moment later, her cold, shivering body found itself enveloped in a burning hot embrace. A tall and

broad figure held her close.

Alyssa mumbled softly, "Jasper, is that you?" Her beautiful eyes sparkled in a way that tugged at one's

heartstrings.

Jasper hugged her close. He pulled her even closer into his chest, which was pained. His voice was so

tense and hoarse that he almost couldn't speak. "It's me, Lyse. I'm here."

Earlier, he had seen her nestled into a bundle of pitiness from afar. He choked on his tears, so much so

that it was difficult to breathe.

His heart hurt so much that it was like it was bleeding after it had been torn into pieces.

At this moment, warm tears flowed down his cheeks, leaving damp marks on Alyssa's shoulders.

He was crying buckets.

Alyssa's mind was in a muddle. She cried out indistinctly, "Jasper... Our child... Our child is gone! You

have to save him!"

In an instant, Jasper felt like he had taken a blow deep down to his soul. Her every word was like a

knife slicing his heart up.

He placed his trembling hand on her forehead. The burning temperature he felt on his hand struck him

with terror!

"Lyse! You're running a temperature! I'll get you to a hospital now!" Jasper exclaimed as he removed

his coat. He wrapped it tightly around her and picked her up in his arms.

Alyssa's fever made her cheeks rosy. She continued rambling, "The child. Our child."

"It's alright, Lyse. It's not a problem if we never have children."

Tears continued to fill in Jasper's eyes. He lowered his head and kissed her on her warm forehead.

"Down in my heart, you are like my child. I will care for you, love and protect you. You are the only one I

need."

Xavier gaped when he saw Jasper walking out of the rain in the dark with Alyssa in his arms. Xavier felt

so moved that he burst into tears.

Once they got into the car, Jasper flung his soaking set coat aside. He had brought a blanket from the

hospital. He bundled Alyssa up snugly with it instead.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her as firmly as he could. His eyes were swollen

red.



"Get the car going, Xavier. Go to the hospital now."

"Got it, Mr. Beckett!"

"No."
