Chapter 823
"Mr. Jasper! Wait!" Ben called out to him.
Jasper asked, "Do you have something else to say, Ben?"
"Is it really impossible for you and Ms. Alyssa anymore?"
Jasper felt a stab in his heart.
"I don't know."
"Ms. Alyssa has something on her that you don't know." Ben clenched his fist and struggled with the words.
Jasper turned back with a look of intense curiosity, "What is it?"
"Ms. Alyssa made me promise to keep it a secret. I can't say," Ben looked conflicted.
"But I hope that Ms. Alyssa can tell you herself one day."
Jasper's curiosity surged.
Alyssa initially hid her identity as the heiress of the Taylor family, devoting herself to him and loving him for 13 years.
These once-secretive matters were enough to deliver a soul-shaking impact on him.
What other secrets was she hiding from him?
Could they be even more shocking than those he already knew?
Two days after the amputation surgery, David woke up.
Alyssa arrived at the hospital early that day. She didn't just finish the surgery and leave.
After all, Victor had entrusted her. She had an obligation to follow up on the subsequent treatments.
Alyssa examined David's newly reattached left leg in the hospital ward with two attending physicians.
His right leg had already been replaced with a prosthetic.
"My legs... My legs ..." David cried desolately with a bleak
expression, but the tears wouldn't come anymore. "I'm done ... My life is over!"
Alyssa, who wore a mask, comforted David, saying, "Please remain calm."
She added, "Just saving one leg already makes you luckier than many others."
"Someone intentionally harmed me. Jameson is behind it!"
David's expression suddenly turned fierce as he grabbed Alyssa's hand.
Feeling a sense of alarm, Alyssa cast a quick glance at the two doctors. Luckily, they were a distance away, and David's indistinct words went unnoticed by them.
Alyssa asked the doctors to leave, and she went to close the door.
With a grave expression, she turned to David and inquired, "Mr. David, during the last surgery, while you were under anesthesia, you mentioned that Jameson tried to kill you. Do you have any evidence?"
David trembled violently, clearly recalling the night of the accident with intense fear.
"After my car flipped, the driver died on the spot, but my secretary survived. I was pinned under the car, unable to move, but I distinctly remember my leg was not broken. It was still functional."
Alyssa furrowed her brow. "And then?"
David's eyes widened with fear as he recounted, "Then I saw a black car slowly approaching. A man wearing a cap and a black mask exited the car. I won't mistake his face and his eyes. It was Jameson!"
Alyssa's heart tightened.
"He walked over, holding an iron rod. Without a word, he beat my secretary to death in front of me! Then, he raised the rod high and struck my leg! I screamed in agony, and after that, I can't remember anything else."
