Justin continued, "That medicine is indeed very rare. But over the years of treatment and medication, I've built some connections in the medical field. My friend has this medicine, and I can ask him to get it for you."

"Really? That's great!" Jasper's face lit up with joy. "How can I repay you for your help, Justin?"

Justin's gaze was mysterious as he smiled. "Although I'm in Mosgravia, I've long heard about how much you cherish Ms. Alyssa. Someday, when I return to Solana City, would you oppose me becoming friends with her?"

Jasper's heart wrenched, and he clenched his grip on the teacup.

"Mr. Justin, you're really putting Mr. Beckett in a difficult position. Ms. Alyssa is the apple of his eye. He would even build a house to hide her if he could. Even if you're his brother, I doubt he'd be willing," Sheryl half-jokingly said, but her words concealed a hidden meaning.

She implied that women were not the only thing Jasper might not be willing to give up for Justin. It could also be power or status.

So what if Justin was Jasper's lifesaver? If one day Justin wanted to return to the Beckett Group, would Jasper really give up his place for him?

"You can't say that, Sheryl."

Justin's expression grew solemn. "Jasper is my little brother. We have grown up together since childhood. I know him very well."

"Justin, I think it's fine if you want to be friends with Lyse." Jasper's tone was calm, but his gaze was slightly cold. "But later on, when I marry Lyse, she'll be your sister-in-law. Isn't that better than just being friends?"

Justin was momentarily taken aback, then smiled. "You make a good point."

"So the medicine..."

"You should return to Solana City first. I think Ms. Alyssa would miss you a lot while you're away."

Justin showed a hint of weariness, indicating he was ready to send Jasper away. "I'll get the medicine as soon as possible and have someone deliver it to you. You can rest assured."

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

Since Justin had already said things to this point, Jasper couldn't say much. He stood up and took his leave.

Once Jasper left, Justin narrowed his eyes, opened a nearby box, and took out the medicine Jasper had requested.

"Sheryl, you've been too talkative today."

"Forgive me, Mr. Justin." Sheryl quickly apologized, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"I understand that seeing an old acquaintance might make it hard to control your emotions. But what you need to do is leave a good impression on Jasper. Your excessive display will only ruin your mystique and may even reveal flaws."

Justin glanced at her pale face. "You should know how clever my brother is."

"Please don't misunderstand me, Mr. Justin. I no longer have any feelings for Jasper like I did in the past. Seeing him now... I only feel hatred."

Especially when he shamelessly expressed his love for Alyssa in front of her. That broke her heart even more.

"No! I never loved Jasper... Never!"

Sheryl knelt in front of Justin, holding his hand tightly. "I approached him during my childhood because I was young and ignorant. I was influenced and manipulated by Sophia."
