Alyssa raised her gaze slightly as she grasped his sweaty hands weakly. "If I go to the hospital... My

brother will find me soon and bring me back with them. Jasper, I don't want to go back. I want to be

with you."

Jasper choked achingly, "But, you have a high fever. It will damage your body."

"It's okay. I just need to take some medication."

Following her utterance, Alyssa closed her eyes once again and slipped into unconsciousness.

The villa was serene during the wee hours of the morning. Lauren was sleeping soundly on her bed.

Next door to her was Landon. He didn't go to the study. Instead, he brought his documents to his

bedroom. This way, he could look after his wife without delaying his business.

He had entered the core of the Harper Group and was extremely busy. Preston had handed a few

projects to him. Landon had long stopped being a rich and free boy. He was now a very busy man.

In the past, he didn't understand when Jasper said he was exhausted. Sitting around thinking and

moving his fingers seemed manageable to him.

Now, Landon pinched his eyebrows and sighed.

It was a slap to his face.

Suddenly, a knock resounded at the door, followed by Angelina's voice. "Mr. Harper, can you come out

for a moment, please?"

Landon put his document down, walked over, and opened the door.

Angelina was anxiously looking at him. "Mr. Harper, Mr. Beckett is here!"

"Who? Jasper? At this god-forsaken hour?" Landon widened his eyes in disbelief.

"He is not alone. Ms. Alyssa is with him too!"

Landon felt something was off. He hurriedly sprinted downstairs.

In the living room, Jasper was hugging Alyssa, who was unconscious, tightly on the couch. His face

was drained of color as he stared at the sleeping face of the person in his arms from time to time.

"Jasper! What's going on?"

Landon ran over to him in shock. His heart tightened when he noticed Alyssa weakly lying in Jasper's

arms, completely unconscious.

"What happened to Lyse?"

"I'm sorry for bothering you at this hour, Landon."

Jasper's lips trembled as he struggled to speak. "But I didn't know where else to bring her. I didn't know

a place where we won't be found. So I had no choice but to come to you. I'm sorry."

"What are you talking about? We're good friends! Rain or shine, you are welcome here anytime. I

would gladly lend a helping hand to the both of you."

Landon assumed something big had happened. He was worried, but he didn't think it was a good idea

to pry.

"Alyssa has a high fever. Do you have any medication for it?" Jasper said hoarsely.

"I will get some now!" Angelina went to get the medication.

"Alyssa doesn't look well. Eating medication will not work!"

Landon quickly instructed, "Angelina, get my doctor here to take a look at Ms. Alyssa."

Angelina went to arrange for the doctor's visit.

"Cold... So cold..." Alyssa mumbled, feeling chills all over her body.

Jasper gasped as he tried to fight back his tears. He wished he could give all his warmth to her.

"Jasper, I have to say this. Alyssa hadn't had a good day since she got together with you."

Landon stood before them, shaking his head achingly. "The Taylor brothers must be looking for Alyssa.novelbin

They care for her dearly and would flip the entire Solana City upside down before they would stop.

"What happened to you before is not over yet. Now, you had taken Lyse away. It's one extra strike for

you."

"Yes, it's one more strike for me. I am already the biggest sinner, so adding one more crime wouldn't

make a difference." Jasper pursed his lips sadly.

Landon gnashed his teeth angrily. "Shit, I think you should just consider eloping at this point."
