Chapter 587

Alyssa had just finished tending to Jasper’s wound when Ben walked in. “How are you

doing, Mr. Jasper?”

“Very we!!, thanks to Alyssa.” Jasper shot her a fond look as he spoke.

Alyssa instinctively looked away.

Jasper used to be so stoic. What was with all this passion and emotion now?

“You have our sincere thanks, Ms. Alyssa. Ben bowed, but Alyssa quickly helped him up.

“You don’t need to do this, Ben. It was my duty, after all.”

Ben wasn’t one to be nosy, but he still wanted to see Jasper be together with Alyssa again.

“You’re still as

kind to Mr. Jasper as always.

“Please don’t misunderstand. I’m only doing this because Jasper is important to Grandpa.”

Alyssa smiled

lightly. “I do what I do only for Grandpa’s sake.

Ben met her smile. Jasper, on the other hand, grinned warmly at her. He was used to her

indignance by now. He just had to read her body language or pay attention to what she

said. One of them was bound to

tell him the truth.

“Mr. Jasper, if you’re able to walk, please head to the study. Mr. Newton would like to

speak to you.”

Jasper nodded, “Alright.”

He turned and said gently to Alyssa, “Wait for me here. I’ll be right back.”

“Like hell! I’m leaving. Goodbye!” Alyssa snorted and marched out of the room.

Jasper wanted to reach out to stop her but didn’t in the end. He watched as she left,

leaving only him and

Ben in the room.

Ben could see just how tender and emotional Jasper’s gaze was as he watched Alyssa

leave.

Jasper chuckled, shaking his head “Don’t you think I’m pathetic, Ben?”

Since he was young, he’d treated Ben as a family, so there was no need to hide anything

from the older

man.

“Of course not, Mr. Jasper. Ben shook his head. “I’d like to congratulate you, actually, for

finally realizing-

what your heart really wants.

“Now that both you and Ms. Alyssa are unattached, you have a chance with her. I pray you

can learn to

Please, don’t disappoint her again.”

Ben then looked at Jasper, who felt like there was a lump in his throat. He had to hold back

a tear from falling down his cheek.

“Do you think… I still have a chance, Ben?”

All of a sudden, Ben was reminded of an image of Alyssa being sent to the ER, blood

soaking both her legs as she lay weakly in the hospital bed, begging him to keep that

night a secret from Jasper.

Ben blinked rapidly before saying, “It may be difficult, sir, but it is my sincere hope that

you do not give up

no matter what.”

Jasper entered Newton’s study, shutting the door behind him.

Out in the corridor, Alyssa tip-toed back into the hallway and crept up to the door of the

study. She carefully looked around, ensuring no one else was around, before pressing her

ear against the door.
