Chapter 1559

"On top of that, you've been working hard every day. You toiled and moiled for the sake of the corporation. But Grandpa didn'teven thank you for your contributions.

“How could he embarrass you in front of all those outsiders? That was brutal of him!" Betty wasn't satisfied with maligningLauren. She stabbed Newton in the back, too.

Sophia was already dead. Now, Javier was the only one in the Beckett family she could rely on.novelbin

After all, Newton no longer sided with her. Since this was the case, she figured that she should continue sowing discord. Shewanted to drive a wedge further in between Newton and Javier.

As she expected, the expression on Javier's face turned even darker after hearing what she said.

Deep down, she was gleeful. She suddenly recalled when Sophia told her about a rift between Javier and Chester. So, shedecided to leverage this to sow more seeds of discord.

"Dad, what do you think Grandpa meant? He can't be thinking that Uncle Chester could come back to life, right?"Rory looked at Betty. He was astonished.

Javier pulled his hand away from the table abruptly. He looked up slowly. He directed his chilling gaze toward Betty.She shuddered.

“What did you say?"

"Dad, listen to me... Since you were young, Grandpa favored Uncle Chester. He showed little care toward you. He didn't caremuch about you even though you are his eldest son. The eldest son should be the one who takes over the family business. Youweren't even like Justin, who's always sickly.

“Based on Grandpa's behavior, he seems dissatisfied with you being in charge. However, what can he do? Could he bring UncleChester back from the dead?"

Suddenly, Javier hit the ceiling. He raised his hand and slapped Betty in the face.Betty screamed.His slap was forceful. Betty felt a splitting headache, and she started seeing stars.

Javier's eyes were bulging with anger. He pointed at her swollen face and chided, "Your grandfather and Uncle Chester are bothyour elders! Who says that you can spew rubbish right here? Get out!"

Betty's mind ran blank. She cupped her face in her hands and scurried out of the study.

Javier was panting. All of a sudden, he felt weak at the knees. He slumped back into the chair. He was as white as a sheet.Sweat trickled down his forehead.

Rory reacted quickly by bringing the cup of chamomile tea over to Javier. "Have a sip of this, Mr. Javier.Don't get too worked up. You need to watch your health."

Javier wanted to pick up the cup of tea. But his hands were shaking so much that he wasn't able to do so even after multipletries.

“Rory, do you think that Dad... Has he always had his suspicions about that incident?” Rory's pupils constricted.

He knew that Javier was referring to that incident from 30 years ago. It was the incident when Newton's beloved second son,Chester, passed away from a heart attack in prison.

"| don't think so, Mr. Javier. | don't think he suspects you."

Rory came over to his side. They were the only two people in the study.

Nonetheless, Rory lowered himselfand whispered, "If Mr. Newtonsuspects you, he wouldn't haveallowed you to succeed him. This isprecisely why I'm confident he didn'tsuspect you were the one behind it."The content is on NovelDrama.Org!Read the latest chapter there!

Javier's hand was still trembling. He put his hand to his forehead. His gaze was dark.

"| haven't gained control over the business. Yet, he wants to place it all in Jasper's hands. Isn't this sufficient proof that he hasalways been wary of me?

"| don't think he has ever intended for me to be his successor. He merely chose me because Chester died. And now, Jasper isalready a grown man.

"Besides, he has the potential tosurpass the previous generation. Andthis is why he wants Jasper to takecharge of the Beckett Group as soonas possible. He wants him to takeover!" The content is onNovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!

"You're overthinking it. It is true that Mr. Jasper is very capable. That's why Mr. Newton entrusted him with the important tasks."

Rory continued to comfort Javier,"Moreover, you are both related byblood. The Beckett Group will still endup in Mr. Jasper's hands after yourretirement. It won't end up in thehands of an outsider." The content ison NovelDrama.Org! Read the latestchapter there!

“Even so, because of what happened with Anne, Jasper has never been on my side! He's now getting closer to Dad. Not onlythat, he's joined hands with Alyssa.

"If he gains control of the Beckett Group, his power will only increase. Eventually, I'll be compelled to retire, leaving me under hiscontrol as well!"

Javier widened his eyes. He looked overcast. "Book a flight to Mosgravia for me. | miss Justin. It's time for me to visit him."
