Chapter 2045
"Look, Lyse. It's always like this," Jasper said.
Alyssa looked at him, feeling sorry for him. She didn't blame him or reproach Javier.
Even though they had to go against Jameson, the bond Jasper and Javier forged during Lauren's incident was precious. Alyssa hoped they wouldn't create further divisions.
"But don't worry. Even if Solana Daily doesn't publish it, I'll make sure other media outlets continue to report on it. It's just that their influence may not be as strong as Solana Daily's." Jasper's eyes burned red with frustration.
The spark had just ignited. He couldn't let it be extinguished like this.
"This isn't your dad's fault. It's pressure from above." Alyssa's voice was gentle as she soothingly calmed his emotions.
"But what surprised me is that Justin called to intervene in this matter at this critical moment. I've been with your family for three years. Beckett Group has faced numerous commercial crises in the past, but he's always been unmoved.
"This time, it's just a news story from Solana Daily causing public opinion to stir. Most people don't even think it has anything to do with the Beckett Group. Yet he appeared first to advise your dad." As the Taylor family's daughter, Alyssa was smart and quick-witted.
While others were just beginning, she had already taken leaps ahead in the same matter.
Unfortunately, the Taylors got along well, so she had nowhere to unleash her full array of strategies and could only use them with the Beckett family.
"He's a bit too proactive. It doesn't fit his image." Alyssa skewered a cheese ball with a toothpick and brought it to Jasper's lips.
Jasper was already full and lacked appetite. But since Alyssa was feeding him, he took a bite anyway. His eyes brimmed with satisfaction and happiness.
"So, Lyse, what are you thinking? Do you think there's something wrong with Justin?"
A bold but terrifying idea struck Alyssa as she chewed on the cheese ball.
Could Justin also be involved in this drug? He mentioned that he knew many pharmaceutical company
people over in Mosgravia. He also e
e
had access to rare drugs that ordinary people couldn't obtain. Could there be some intricate,
hidden connection?
But he wasn't lacking in money. Why would he do this?
Or perhaps she was overthinking it. Maybe he simply intervened to please Javier and lay the groundwork for his return to power in the future.
However, no matter the reason, his

actions only meant one thing in Alyssa's eyes-the Beckett brothers wouldn't join forces. They would only diverge.
Justin had saved Jasper's life, but gratitude was one thing, and stance was another.
Just then, Alyssa's phone rang. It was Sean calling.
"Ms. Alyssa, everything's arranged. Please tune in to 3 o'clock News now."Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"Thank you."
After hanging up, Alyssa immediately opened the app. She turned the screen horizontally and leaned her head against Jasper's.
At that moment, 3 o'Clock News began broadcasting. The first news was about the banned drug and human experimentation.
"Lyse, w-when did you arrange this?" Jasper's eyes sparkled with astonishment.
"Actually, I thought that Solana Daily alone wasn't enough."
Alyssa nestled in Jasper's arms and
rubbed her head against his sturdy chest. "So, I had to give you some
extra help and prepare a back 13
plan. Don't worry. I'll always be
behind you."
Although Solana Daily had taken down the post from their official Twitter account, the trending hashtag couldn't be removed no matter what.
