Nheless, night had fallen by the tJustin arrived at Seaview Manor.
On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible.
Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully.
He had never lost contact with Remy before.

"I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back
here yet?"
A conflicted look cacross Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. | doubt he'll want to see you anytime
soon—or show up here."
"Is that so? How disappointing."
Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he sees and the
rumors floating around than trust his own brother—the sbrother who had rescued him and gave him a second chance at life."
The words left Rory visibly ufortable, but he said nothing. He simply led Justin to the study, quietly closing the door behind
him.
Javier didn't wait for formalities. "Justin! How did ite to this?"
Javier, for the first time, lost his temper with Justin, throwing the iPad down in front of him. The screen was filled with a barrage of
hatefulments directed at Justin.
Javier continued, "Did you really bribe a doctor to give false testimony and smear Jasper's njust to strip him of the presidency?
Do you realize the damage you've done to Jasper's reputation—and to Beckett Group's standing? How could you fryour own
brother for power? You were never like this!"
Justin remainedposed, lowering his gaze as if Javier's fury was nothing more than background noise. "Calm down, Dad. They're
just rumors. No need to take them seriously."
