Alyssa said, "This is the information that I asked Sean to investigate and gather on Nicholas." Jasper arched his eyebrows in surprise. "Lyse, we're thinking the sthing. I was thinking after investigating The Ivory Gang, I'd continue the investigation on this Novak guy. You're so smart." After he finished, he couldn't help but peck her lips.

"This is a difficult battle, so I can't let you handle everything. I want to shoulder as much of the burden as I can." Instantly, Jasper's eyes becwatery as he felt a rush of emotions.
He would rather his lover be innocent and live a leisurely life. It would be enough for him to pamper and indulge her. Alyssa was driven by righteousness and would strive to bring justice. He felt guilty about not being able to provide a peaceful life for her.
Alyssa studied the documents and suddenly squinted her eyes. "Mrs. Novak has Alzheimer's?" Sean nodded solemnly. "Yes. After I got to know this, I secretly paid a visit to her nursing hand I even found out more information.

"How is Mrs. Novak doing?" As Alyssa read the document, she asked.

"The caretakers said that Mrs. Novak cannot recognize him anymore. Sof them even saw Chief Novak secretly wiping his tears in the hallway." Although this had nothing to do with her, Alyssa still felt very uncomfortable hearing all this.
"So he's in cahoots with Jameson for that elusive new drug." Jasper would only be empathetic toward his lover and coldly rational toward others. "Even if he wanted to save his wife, this isn't a good enough reason to take part in Jameson's dirty business. Alyssa sighed helplessly and her gaze turned sorrowful. "If I were in his shoes, would I also take the risk and try my luck? Maybe... I would as well." Św"Lyse, you wouldn't." Bet swno isk Jasper intertwined his fingers with hers tightly. "You are not a selfish person, and you wouldn't be so ruthless. You are the kindest person in the entire world." "Ah... If that's the case, then Nicholas might really go all out to achieve his purposes." Sean also caught on. He widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Then anyone who stops the drug from being manufactured will have to die!" Jasper's eyes narrowed. "It's quite likely that this issue with Nathan is also related to him." Alyssa met Jasper's gaze as she muttered, "It seems that we need to find a tto visit Mrs. Novak." Victor instructed Jameson to meet him. Jameson was very prideful, so he delayed until the evening before meeting Victor.
