The bad news weighed on Alyssa's chest like a boulder, rolling back and forth and causing herunbearable pain.

"Lyse, don't be upset. Medical technology is advanced nowadays. Winston will definitely recover.”Jasper held her tightly in his arms. With his large hand on the back of her neck, he pressed herflushed face against his chest.

He comforted her patiently and firmly, "If it's not possible here, I'll accompany you to take Winstonabroad—all over the world to replace the best doctors. He'll be fine. Don't worry. Everything will bealright.”

"I'm sorry, Lyse, kids...” Mandy finally couldn't hold back anymore. She closed her eyes, letting hertears flow freely.

"Don't blame Julien. It's my fault. I made him keep silent. I was afraid that telling you would makeyou sad and scared. I thought I could keep it from you until we found a solution. It's my fault. Blameme..."

Julien's heart ached. "Aunt Mandy, please don't say that.”

"We get it, Mandy." Jonah forced himself to control his emotions.

His voice was hoarse as he said, "This isn't Julien's fault, and it's not yours either. If anyone is toblame, it's me. As the eldest son, I didn't fulfill my duty to Dad. It's all my fault.”

"And me... I'm useless too..." Silas sniffled.

"Since even Silas is saying that, let me join in." Axel, usually full of pride, looked dejected.

"What does it have to do with all of you?"

Alyssa's pale face showed no traces of tears, but the intense hatred burning in her eyes was chilling."Wasn't Dominic the one who caused Dad's relapse? Shouldn't he be the one who should takeresponsibility and repent?”

"That's true, but we all know what kind of person that bastard is. Even if we ask him to takeresponsibility, he might just come back and upset Dad into the hospital again.” Silas sighedhelplessly.

"Lyse, if you want revenge, it's easy. I'll cut Dominic's tongue off for you to vent your anger.” Axelsmirked, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. "Let's see how he can make Dad angry in thefuture.”

With tears hanging on her lashes, Alyssa looked down and shook her head. "No, you don't need todo it. When Dad's condition stabilizes, I'll handle it myself. He may be able to run, but he can'tescape from me."

In the hospital parking lot, Jameson sat motionless in the car. His beautiful face was as cold as snow.Recalling the humiliation he suffered at the hands of Jasper and the Taylor brothers, he felt a surgeof anger rising.

He could hardly pretend anymore.

He had hidden his true self, pretending to be weak for so many years. He thought that he hadalready engraved hypocrisy into his DNA.

But seeing Jasper boldly embrace Alyssa and declare sovereignty in front of him, he really couldn'ttake it anymore. He was about to be overwhelmed by his inner demons.

After much deliberation, Jameson finally couldn't help but call the man.
