Jasper stared at the unfamiliar phone number on the screen. He was stunned for a moment. Not many
people knew his personal number.
Under ordinary circumstances, if unknown individuals had dialed his number by mistake, he would
never have answered their calls.
However, for some strange reason, his heart was racing this time. He couldn't restrain himself.
Jasper selected the option to answer the call and raised his phone to his ear. "Who's this?"
On the other end of the call, the winds and rain made it sound extremely noisy.
"May I know who's calling?"
Typically, Jasper would have hung up a long time ago. But this was an exceptional time when he
actually went along with it. He waited for a response from the other end.
"Jasper, it's me^"
He heard Alyssa's weak, soft voice choppily from the other end. The gusts of strong winds disrupted
the sound of her voice. Yet, he felt like a sharp sword had just stabbed right through his chest!
"Lyse?"
Jasper's eyes beamed with surprise. He stood up instantly. Every breath he took trembled with
excitement. He couldn't believe that he could still hear from her.
"Jasper, I want to see you. I'm really tired..." Alyssa's voice drifted away gradually until it was barely
audible.
Jasper's eyes turned red in a flash. Waves of inexplicable pain tossed in his heart. "Where are you,
Lyse? I'll go to you now!"
"I. I don't know where I am."
Alyssa couldn't hold it in anymore. She began to weep softly. "I've been walking for such a long time. I
can't walk anymore. My head is spinning. I just want to sleep."
"Lyse! Don't sleep! Listen to me—don't fall asleep!"
Jasper's frantic heart tightened. "Don't hang up. I'll get your coordinates immediately! I'll go to you
now!"
Newton overheard the conversation by the side. His expression was tense, and he became extremely
worried, too.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry. I."
"No need to explain, Jasper." Newton waved his hand, urging, "Go on! Nothing is more important than
finding Alyssa right now!"novelbin
Jasper gripped his cell phone tight and dashed out of the hospital ward.
"You must find Alyssa! You have to protect her!" Newton shouted from behind him.
Jasper stopped briefly and responded with a firm nod.
Jasper drove the car in person. Along with Xavier, he sped through the rain toward Belbanks.
At the same time, he had gathered some people promptly. More than ten black cars followed Jasper's
lead. They struggled to keep up with Jasper even though they drove 180 miles per hour.
To them, it seemed like Jasper was flying a plane rather than driving a car!
Rainy days meant that the roads were slippery and visibility was low. Jasper was basically putting his
life on the line by driving at this speed!
Xavier clung onto the car's grab handle with his life. Fear had drained all the blood from his face. He
felt like his heart was in his mouth!
"Mr. Beckett! Please... please calm down! I know that it's urgent to locate Madam. Even so, you need to
watch out for your safety too!"
"Lyse's circumstances aren't great. She could be in danger at any moment!"
Jasper's eyes were bloodshot. His shoulders, although covered by his suit, were shaking uncontrollably
from the terror that he was feeling.
"Every second I'm late means that Lyse is in an even more dangerous position! How could I possibly
calm down?"
Xavier didn't dare to say anything else. He simply shut his eyes tight and said a prayer.
"Are you still getting the signal on Alyssa's location?" Jasper's voice was hoarse. It was as if his throat
had been scalded. His forehead was dripping with sweat.
"Yes, I am! We're still about two miles away!"
Suddenly, the location indicator vanished from Xavier's tablet screen. Xavier was alarmed, and he
shrieked, "Shit! Mr. Beckett! We lost the signal on Madam's location!"
Jasper's heart sank.
He could only pray now, hoping it was because her cell phone battery had gone flat and not because
she had encountered any sort of frightening situation!
"Lyse, hang in there. I will find you soon!"
Soon enough, his sports car arrived at where her GPS signal last pinged.
