Female Novel
Chapter 1943
Jasper gazed out the window with a gloomy expression, pondering Newton's earnest teachings. The more he thought about it,the more stifled he felt.
Somehow, he couldn't shake the feeling that Newton was afraid of Justin.
Newton's advice and determination to protect him at all costs made Jasper wonder if Justin was more than just a person inNewton's eyes. He seemed more like a bloodthirsty beast lurking in the shadows.
“Ahem... It was such a close call tonight, Mr. Beckett." Noticing that Jasper was down, Xavier tried to ease the mood."What?"
“You almost lost your innocence!"
“Lost what?" Jasper frowned.
“Earlier in the garden, Ms. Gillis almost threw herself at you. Luckily, my swift reflexes kicked in, and | arrived just in time toprotect your virtue," Xavier boasted, sporting a self-satisfied grin.
Virtue?Upon seeing his smug look, Jasper wanted to knock some sense into him.
“Even if you hadn't appeared, | wouldn't have any contact with any woman other than Lyse,” Jasper stated with closed eyes. "Am| that unreliable?"novelbin
"That may be so, but even a whoremaster can't stop a shameless bitch."Jasper's face darkened at those words."No matter how vigilant you are, those annoying bugs will seize any opportunity to land on you."
Without noticing the invisible wrath enveloping him, Xavier continued to ramble on, "Seaview Manor isn't like your privateresidence with Madam. It's crowded with people of all sorts.
"If there were any physical contact between you and Ms. Gillis, and someone with ill intentions spread rumors, Madam might notallow you into bed if she hears about it.”
Anger flashed in Jasper's eyes as he kicked the back of Xavier's seat. "Tell me. Who's the whoremaster?”Xavier's throat went dry, and he didn't know what to reply."If you can't explain, say goodbye to your bonus for this month."
Xavier immediately surrendered for the money. "I was wrong, Mr. Beckett! My brain short-circuited, and | used the wrongmetaphor. | won't do that again!"
Jasper smirked, but the emotions in his eyes remained inscrutable. "Your task for the next few days is to find out Ms. Gillis’background. Focus on her work history. | want to know whether she really worked as a doctor without borders in Luminara."
It was late at night, and Alyssa still hadn't fallen asleep; she was thinking about Jasper.
While on the living room couch, she took out several pieces of her high-priced jewelry, carefully wiping and cleaning them underthe light.
Some were her own designs, priceless and unattainable regardless of one's willingness to pay. There were also items she hadacquired at auctions—from emerald bracelets to top-quality rubies, each piece was an envy-inducing treasure.
Alyssa carefully placed her treasures back in their boxes with a contented smile.

“Lyse, why are you still awake at this hour?"Jasper was somewhat surprised. He had entered quietly to avoid waking her up, but he hadn't expected her to still be awake.
"You have to attend Mr. Cornelius’ funeral early tomorrow morning. Are you sure you can wake up in time, you sleepyhead?"
