Female Novel
Chapter 1616
Alyssa was relieved that she wasn't a fan of gay romance. Otherwise, she would have found herself constantly swooning overJonah and Julien.
“Anyway, | was shocked that Aidan Lovelace would show up alone and behave in such a nasty manner," Jasper remarked.He placed her on the couch, cradling her head in his lap and gently massaging her abdomen.
The look in his eyes darkened when he recalled the confrontation just now. Fortunately, Alyssa hadn't gotten bullied just now, orhe didn't know what he might do to Aidan.
“He might be unruly, but I'm sure getting slapped twice shook him up," Alyssa said, wrapping her arms around Jasper's neck, herbreath teasing his skin.
She continued, "The Lovelaces' arrogance stems from their recent success in medical research. Hence, their business. They'reon the brink of a breakthrough in Parkinson's treatment.
"If they succeed, Lovelace Pharmaceuticals will dominate the market globally. The wealth they'll accumulate is unimaginable."
"That explains their attitude. They might start looking down not only on the Taylors but on all the esteemed families combined,"Jasper remarked, shaking his head.
"| understand them taking pride in their success, but they shouldn't get ahead of themselves." Jasper snickered. "The BeckettGroup does not operate in the medical field, but it's common knowledge that there are many obstacles in the road of developinga new drug.
"Lovelace Pharmaceuticals should rationally assess their capability in monopolizing the field."
"There's one more reason, and it's because of Winston. Mandy stuck by Winston for years without any legal title. The Lovelacesmust've exploited his guilt, sending Aidan to humiliate us." Alyssa slapped her thigh in anger.
She added, "I'm furious every time | picture Winston getting back to work before he's fully recovered. We can't do much if herefuses to take care of his health!”
"Don't worry, Lyse. He's in good hands with Mr. Benton," Jasper reassured her, gently pinching her waist. "Why don't you take anap? We'll pick up Winston from work later. How does that sound?"
She kissed him on her lips, her eyes colored with joy and contentment.
Back at the KS Group headquarters in Belbanks, Winston carried on with his work like usual, but he wasn't fully himself.However, he had no choice but to show up to work to boost the company's morale. If the rumors weren't squashed, his rivalswould start planning a move against him.
After performing his routine checks in the headquarters and attending a board meeting, Winston rushed back to rest in his officewithout bothering to take his lunch.novelbin
He took off his jacket and slumped on the couch. Drenched in sweat, he felt utterly drained and depleted.
"Mr. Winston, how are you feeling? Are you alright?" Neil hurried in with water and medicine for Winston.
“Neil, | think my time is almost up," Winston remarked wryly.

Neil flashed a faint smile, offering no comment on the comparison.
Winston sighed. "I'm not being paranoid. | really feel the toll on my health after waking up from this coma."
