Chapter 619
Landon had once spoiled Zoe as her brother, but now she felt nothing except fear for him.
“You don’t have an idea? It’s okay as long as I know who he is,” Landon taunted. Then, two
bodyguards dragged Gary into the house. He had been beaten into a pulp.
Zoe gasped and covered her mouth in shock as she watched the trail of blood left behind
by Gary as he

“Gary, you’ve served me for a decade, and I’ve treated you well over the years. for dead

He took a seat on the chair Angelina had pulled out for him. “Is this how you repay my
kindness? Posing as my loyal employee while groveling to my sister? You’re quite good at
this double-agent act.”

She quickly averted her gaze from his severely bruised and bloodied face, which made her
feel nauseated.
“Angelina, give him the same old punishment,” Landon instructed, taking a drag on his
cigarette.
“Yes, Mr. Landon.” Angelina approached Gary with a hot iron and inflicted burns on his
body.
The hissing sounds, mixed with Gary’s agonizing groans, were extremely disturbing and
sickening.
Zoe screamed, wrapping her arms around her head. She fainted soon after.
Alyssa hadn’t received any updates from Jasper since their night at Jameson’s place, and
she had been plagued by nightmares about him for three consecutive nights.
While she understood that dreams were not necessarily a reflection of reality, their
vividness scared her.
Moreover, she had found the patch of blood outside Jameson’s gate. It was particularly
unsettling and
frightening.
Mandy knocked on Alyssa’s door and entered the room. She said, “Lyse, this is the
medication for the
second treatment.” Then, she placed the medication in front of Alyssa.
Alyssa was in the process of packing her belongings for her return to Solana City. She
gladly accepted the medication and replied, “Thank you, Mandy.”
“Don’t mention it. I would do anything for you,” Mandy said, gently stroking Alyssa’s hair.
Then, she asked, “By the way, how is Jasper’s recovery coming along?
“Do you care about him?” Alyssa asked in surprise.
“No, that’s absurd,” Mandy quickly clarified, distancing herself from Jasper.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“He’s using Lovelace Pharmaceutical’s medication, and I’m naturally interested in how our
little test subject is responding. I would like to gauge its effectiveness.”
Upon hearing this, Alyssa pufsed her lips and felt a touch of frustration. The medication
from Lovelace Pharmaceuticals had not yet received approval for sale as it was still in
clinical trials.
Despite the risks, Alyssa had provided the medication to Jasper in an effort to prevent his
injuries from worsening, which could result in long-term side effects.
“He… looks fine. But Mandy, what are
the side effects of the medication?”
Mandy shook her head with a sigh. “I have no clue. That’s why I asked you about his cor
Regardless, there are two important things he should be aware of when he’s on the
medication
“First, he must avoid getting injured. Second, he should keep his emotions stable.
Emotional turmoil won’t
help his recovery. It will only worsen his condition.”
Alyssa felt a tightness in her chest, and a frown crept across her face. The thought of the
bloodstain
weighed heavily on her mind.
