Alyssa


    left the hospital without so much as a word to Jasper. Though he’d left her with an iplete puzzle,


    she wasn’t going to grovel for the entire thing.


    She’d rather figure it out herself than ask. It was high time she stepped back into her spotlight after


    what


    she’d endured for three years.


    On the way back to the vi, Sean called her.


    “Ms. Alyssa, we were unable to find any information on Jasper directly, but we did find some interesting


    things pertaining to Justin Beckett.”


    “Being Beckett Group’s CEO, it only makes sense that anything personally rted to him is entirely off


    the records. You’re getting smarter, Sean.” Alyssa grinned.


    Sean savored the praise and continued, “Justin Beckett was a victim of a kidnap when he was 11


    years.


    old.”


    “Kidnap?”


    “Yes. But there is virtually no news about this incident on the World Wide Web, not even in the


    newspapers. The Beckett family must have silenced all potential leaks on this incident.


    “If it weren’t for the police’s records, we’d never have found out about this. If you’d really more about it,


    miss, you can always ask my father.


    to to know


    “He was Sna City’s Supreme Court judge, after all. He must’ve heard something about it.”


    “No need, Sean, You’ve already done exceedingly well. You can drop the matter for now.” Alyssa then


    hung up the call, sinking into thought.


    Sean was on bad terms with most of his family right now, so he couldn’t be asking them for help on


    their


    behalf for the time being.


    Thankfully, Alyssa had some leads now.


    She had just reached home when she noticed a man standing outside the gate.


    Alyssa narrowed her eyes to see who it was. Her heart dropped upon realizing it was Jasper.


    Jasper gazed at her through her windshield, a fond smile on his face.


    Alyssa pursed her lips, a bitter wave rising in her chest.


    She had to admit Jasper looked extremely fine when he smiled, just like how she used to dream of him.


    She had foolishly stayed by his side for three years, giving him things she thought he might appreciate,


    learning how to cook, all just so he would smile at her for once.


    All of it was futile, however.


    Yet, here he was now, smiling at her, even admitting he had feelings for her.


    But could her injured, pained heart really be healed by this love that hade toote?


    Alyssa took a deep breath, exited the car, and walked up to him.
