Chapter 260

Jasper walked out of the study, his chest so heavy it might shatter under the invisible weight.

He had come to realize that Alyssa felt like a red-hot burn in his heart. She was something he didn't dare touch or think about, les t he wanted pain to course through his entire being.

But beyond this, what he didn't want to think about the most was that Alyssa once loved him.

Jasper had always been a person of pride. Even in his childhood, when he endured hunger and hardships, he never resorted to begging.

He had even gambled with Alyssa, not for money, but for pride. Now, he couldn't help but admit that he had lost.

"Mr. Beckett, "Xavier came up to him,

saying, "I have three things to report to you, sir."

Jasper hummed in acknowledgment, signaling Xavier to proceed.

"Ms. Liana has awakened from her rest, but her condition isn't too good. She's repeatedly asked to see you."

"Next."

"Mr. Javier has employed a prominentlawyer to defend Sophia Kirkman. She'll be released tomorrow morning. Her cousin, Henry Kirkman, has also taken responsibility for the accusations in her name, so her record is clean now,"Xavier reported with a scowl.

"What's the lawyer's name?"

"Lynch. Sim on Lynch."

Jasper was somewhat surprised that his father would employ such a top-tier lawyer for Sophia.

Xavier stepped closer and added, "What's sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

interesting is that this Lynch guy is Ms. Alyssa's personal assistant's elder brother. That PA-Sean is his name, is the Lynch family's third son. Isn't that crazy? 11

Jasper narrowed his eyes.

The Lynch family wasn't as wealthy or large as their own, but they were still formidable in the political and legal spheres.

The head of their family, Spencer Lynch, was a Supreme Court judge renowned for dispensing true justice throughout the nation.

Spencer had three sons. The eldest, Simon Lynch, had served as a legal consultant for two of the nation's top financial corporations. He had also won countless legal cases both domestically and internationally.

The second son, Steven Lynch, had followed in his father's footsteps and was

currently a High Court judge.

Finally, there was Sean Lynch. Despite appearing unassuming and meek, he was extraordinarily well-educated and learned. He held a degree from Solana's Political Science and Law University and had made history as the university's youngest doctoral graduate.

During his time on campus, he had been known not only for his intelligence and good looks but also for his down-to-earth nature and dedication to his studies. Alyss a was indeed surrounded by all sorts of geniuses.

A bitter taste filled Jasper's mouth as he remarked, "Sophia's release was only a matter of time. Nevertheless, she won't be reinstated on the board of directors." "Ms. Alyss a won this one! There's no waythat old woman can make a comeback now. Sir, we've truly gained a lot from this!" Xavier said gleefully, rubbing his

hands.

Jasper scowled."Why don't you work for her if you like her so much?"

Xavier was rendered speechless.

"I've won countless times before, but I'venever seen you so excited. Think carefully about who's paying you right now before you react."

Xavier remained quiet.

"Well? What's the third thing?"

"Oh!I found some information on theman Ms. Alyss a was with the other night. It's quite astonishing."

"Who is he?"

"He's Schmidt Group's president'syoungest son, Jameson Schmidt. He only returned from Kontina a couple of days ago, having lived there for the past few years." Jasper's heart lurched at the mention of

Jameson Schmidt.

In the business realm of Solana City, there had been a longstanding saying-North to the Becketts, South to the Schmidts.

The Schmidts controlled a significant portion of the projects in Solana City, making them the Becketts' natural counterparts.

While a marked line seemingly separated their territories, the truth was that they had been competing to gain an advantage over each other for a long time.
