While the Schmidts were deep in trouble, Jasper was busy with work. Winston's condition hadrecently stabilized. After sorting out Winston's matters, Jasper began working to create a charityfoundation in Anne's name.

Anne had passed on for years, but Jasper resolved to make the foundation great to show his lovefor his mother.

"Mr. Beckett, the charity dinner preparations are nearly complete. We'll need your decisions oncertain details, such as the venue selection and the guest list.” Xavier handed him some documents.Jasper carefully pored over the documents. He calmly asked, "Any updates on Javier Beckett lately?""Nothing suspicious, except for one issue." Xavier leaned forward. He lowered his voice into awhisper. "I looked into Mr. Javier's schedule abroad.

"He was scheduled to attend a business meeting in Furancia for a week. He should have come hometo Solana City after that, but he took a detour to Mosgravia.”

"That doesn't mean I'll hand my power to him unconditionally. I will engage in a fair fight.”

They were interrupted by a knock on the door. Jasper said, "Come in."

An assistant entered the office with two white lunch boxes in his hands. He announced, "Mr. Beckett,Madam's assistant delivered lunch for you. Madam reminded you to take your meals on time, orelse—"

Jasper eagerly shot up from his seat. His eyes twinkled. "Or else?"

"Or else, she won't let you into the house tonight. There won't be any supper either.” After sayingthat, the assistant blushed deeply. Married for a few years, the assistant completely grasped thesuggestive undertone of Alyssa’s reminder.

"Got it." Jasper stared at the lunchboxes. Gulping, he squinted and tugged at his tie.

Standing at the side, Xavier observed the tender look in Jasper's eyes. Xavier couldn't help but thinkthat Jasper was staring at the lunchboxes as if they were Alyssa herself.

The assistant left after laying out the lunch on the table. Jasper hurriedly sat on the couch andstuffed his mouth with his favorite dishes.

"Wow, that's really good. How can they be so delicious?" While eating, he gasped andcomplimented Alyssa's cooking.
