NovelStart"Dad, I'm not letting you go! You'd better stay here!" Alyssa flared up and blocked her father's way.
"How dare you! I'm your father. You have no right to tellwhat to do. You are in no place to make decisions for
the Taylor family."
Winston and Alyssa found themselves at a stalemate, unable to find common ground.
Mandy panicked and froze where she was.
It was the first tJasper had experienced a situation like this after getting together with Alyssa. He didn't know
how to comfort and how to mediate this argument.
"Dad, you..." Alyssa felt a sense of suffocation. She clenched her fists so hard that they'd turned pale.
"Alyssa, if you want to be a good daughter, please don't angeranymore. Please don't forceinto this
yelling match with you."
Winston had drenched his nightwear in sweat. Even panting took up a lot of his energy. The sight of his beloved
daughter slowly turned blurry in his eyes. "Please just letdo what | want this one time. Is it that hard?"

It was 1:30 pm.
Winston arrived at the KS Group building in the company of Neil, Alyssa, and Jasper.
Winston had changed into a smart-looking suit as if he had donned his armor, ready to engage in war. His energy
now was a far cry from the feeble patient who struggled to even leave his bed just hours ago.
The effects of the medication were potent.
Jasper and Alyssa were worried. They followed Winston all the way to the entrance of the meeting room like
parents sending their children off to school.
"Hey, Winston!"
They were unlucky to see the undaunted Dominic walking toward them.
A sharp glint flickered in Winston's eyes. He showed a composed smile. "Dominic."
"How are you feeling, Winston?" Dominic walked in front of them and sized his brother up with concern.
In actual fact, he was prying.
"I've almost recovered completely. Thank you for asking." Winston stayed composed.
"Sigh, you don't need to be this courteous with me. We're at this age where illnesses are our best friends.
Strokes are a tricky business. You must take good care of yourself!"
Then, Dominic noticed Jasper, who was standing behind. He was like a cold soldier, intimidating as ever.
Dominic was scared. Then, he remembered he was in the KS Group, not the Beckett Group. It was his territory,
and he had his brother's support. He didn't need to be scared of Jasper.
So, Dominic looked at Jasper and smiled. "Are you joining us for the meeting, Mr. Beckett? Is the Beckett Group
planning to join us as a shareholder?"
A grim glint flickered in Dominic's eyes. However, he had to know his place and not act out in front of Winston
based on seniority. "Haha... I'm joking."
Dominic waved his hand and laughed. "However, the KS Group would always welcyou as a shareholder, Mr.
Beckett. After all, everyone is saying things about you. You, as the illegitimate son of the Beckett family, had

"To secure your position in the family, you can becthe Taylor family's son-in-law, use the KS Group's power
to cement your standing, and enjoy great benefits from the company. It is just as how everyone else was saying.
"If you beca shareholder, you could win brownie points with my brother and debunk the terrible rumor
everyone is saying about you."
"Haha! Uncle Dominic, | thought you just had an outdated taste. | didn't realize how outdated the news you
received was, too."
Alyssa felt like ripping Dominic to shreds, but she maintained her smile and stayed composed. "Even if you don't
have working internet, it's not that hard to get more updated news from the television.
"Jasper is not an illegitimate child, but a pure blood of the Beckett family. After apprehending Sophia, Jasper had
gotten the recognition he deserved.
"Various media platforms have been competing for this headline. If you continue to talk about this outdated
piece of rumor, people might think you are on Sophia's side. They would assyou were just angry and didn't
want to let Jasper off."
As Jasper locked eyes with Alyssa, a warmth blossomed within his heart, spreading like a gentle flame.
