Chapter 585
Jasper then gently held her hand and kissed the back of her palm.
Alyssa blushed furiously, flinching just the slightest in response. Yet she forgot to pull her
hand away.
“I’m sorry, Alyssa. I’m sorry for making you listen to all that. Could you please forgive me
this once?”
Jasper asked earnestly, gazing into her eyes.
Was this still Solana City’s revered bachelor, Jasper Beckett? The man whom corporations
feared to
cross? Or had someone taken over his body?
Alyssa cleared her throat lightly, saying nothing else as she watched Jasper kneel before
her.
A sense of glee welled up in her chest,

father beat you
up?
She wrinkled her nose, poking at his forehead as she snapped, “You’re a 30-year-old man.
Couldn’t you have retaliated even a little bit? Do you two have a father-son relationship or
a slave-master one?”
‘Did you worry about me?’ Jasper asked, tilting his head.
“You saved my life and are like a patient to me right now. It’s only natural that I worry
about your health as
your doctor.” Alyssa refused to answer his question directly.
“So you are.” Jasper beamed at her. “I don’t mind being beaten up. I got to see just how
much you cared
about me, after all.”
Alyssa scowled, rolling her eyes. Jasper should really get his brain checked.
Meanwhile, Landon was driving Lauren to the hospital at the fastest speed possible. He
never once let
her go from his arms, even after arriving.
When had a powerful, feared man such as Landon ever been so worried and anxious over
a woman?
Angelina followed briskly behind him, a faint smile appearing on her face.
Lauren really was an angel to have blessed her boss with tenderness and love.
“Mr. H-Harper, none of our elite doctors are present tonight. If you want to send her to the
emergency
ward, we can find someone for you ASAP!” The nurse cried, shivering with fear after
recognizing Landon

demolishing this place from the ground up!” Landon roared. “Well? What are you waiting
for?”
The nurse quickly ran off to find the doctor. Most of the other staff and patients also
stayed out of his
way.
“Does it still hurt, Laurie?” Landon asked softly, the sweat on his skin soaking through
Lauren’s clothes.
Lauren winced lightly, tears still falling down her face. The sight only made Landon’s anger
burn more
furiously.
“Mr. Harper, Ms. Lauren’s hearing might be affected right now by Betty’s slap. I’m sure she
can’t hear you quite well,” Angelina suggested.
The desire to rip Betty apart limb by limb rose in Landon’s chest. “If something happens to
Lauren’s hearing, I’m cutting that bitch’s eyes out and shoving it down her throat!”
Spikes of pain and anxiety cut into Landon’s heart as he watched Lauren tremble. He
leaned down to kiss
her forehead, praying for it to go away.
