Landon called out, “Jasper!”


    It was as if Jasper waspletely disconnected from the world. Jasper walked past Landon absent-


    mindedly and got into the car wordlessly.


    Worry filled Landon’s heart once again.


    The luxurious car headed toward Seaview Manor.


    “Xavier mentioned that the manor had been put up for auction. Many are vying to bid for it.”


    Landon exined to him in a lowered voice, “Xavier had cleared everything in the manor. He had


    collected your mother’s photographs and brought them to the Seaview Manor.


    “He disposed of everything else at the garbage disposal and made sure to incinerate them, leaving no


    traces behind.


    “Jasper? Jasper? Are you listening to me?”


    “I don’t want to go back to Seaview Manor, Landon. I want to visit Grandpa. I miss him.”


    Jasper struggled to articte thest word of his sentence, his voice catching in his throat.


    Landon looked at him, stunned.


    Jasper’s eyes reddened, and tears streamed down his face as his shoulders trembled.


    He was crying.


    They had known each other for two decades. Landon had never seen Jasper shed even a single tear


    at his mother’s funeral, yet he was now crying because of Alyssa.


    Jonah left Sna City and returned to Heightsnew Vi.


    He wanted to keep Alyssapany at the hospital. However, he was emotionally unstable. He didn’t


    want his sister to catch onto his negative emotions.


    So, he hid in his wine cer and drank himself into a stupor.


    “Mom.” Jonah swirled his wine ss gently. Sorrow lingered in his reddened eyes. “I’m sor protecting


    Alyssa. She had been mistreated.


    “Mom, please tell me. How can I help Alyssa? How can I help you to find true happiness?”


    At this moment, the wine cer’s door opened.


    Jonah narrowed his heavy eyes at the door. His heart clenched and began to thump wildly.


    Julien leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. He looked at Jonah with the brightest smile.


    Jonah couldn’t help but think they looked so alike. He couldn’t hold himself back. He came close to


    uttering the name he had long buried in the depths of his heart.


    “Drinking alone is no fun. Let me keep youpany, Jonah.” An inexplicable look lingered in Julien’s


    eyes. He strode to Jonah and sat beside him.

    Jonah stared at him for a moment. He trembled as he swallowed hard.


    “Why are you drinking so much? It’s bad for your liver.”


    Julien sighed and poured a ss of wine for himself. “I know you are not in a good mood. Just drink. I


    will


    give you medication for your liverter on. Remember to take them. You’re not getting any younger.


    You


    need to take care of your health. Don’t ruin your health before you even marry.”


    “You talk too much.” Jonah parted his lips and down his entire ss of wine. “I won’t get married, so


    don’t. worry about me.”


    “You don’t n to get married? Why?”


    Julien rested his chin on his hand. He looked at him with a gentle yet yful gaze. “You are the eldest


    among the Taylor siblings, next in line to take over KS Group. How can you not get married and


    continue


    the Taylor family legacy? Will Mr. Taylor let you do it?”


    “It’s none of your business. Oh, another thing-”


    Jonah paused to pour another ss for himself. His voice was hoarse, and his eyes filled with longing


    as he continued, “Whatever happens to the KS Group is for Alyssa to handle. Alyssa is the heir to the


    KS Group.”
