Jasper turned to see what had caught his attention, and his heart sank.
Standing at the alley's end, silhouetted against the light, was a tall figure radiating a presence thatmanded fear. Though the man's face was obscured, his unyielding presence was unmistakable. It was Justin's right-hand man, Remy.
"Mr. Beckett, w-what should we do?" Xavier stammered.
With a fierce glint in his eyes, Jonah took a step forward. "I'll hold him back. The rest of you, keep going." "Xavier, take Dr. Bender to the press conference immediately. Don't let anything stop you." Jasper swallowed hard. He added in a firm,manding tone, "I'll stay and face Remy with this brother of mine." Jonah's eyes widened in shock.
Brother? Had he heard Jasper correctly? Xavier nodded firmly. With tears in his eyes, he said, "Alright, Mr. Beckett. Be extra careful, both of you!" No matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to obey. After all, if a weak link like him stayed behind, he would just be holding everyone back.

Nheless, it was too late. Jonah's dagger had plunged deep into Remy's right shoulder. Blood flowed freely, staining the ground.

Jonah froze, his gaze fixed on the extremely familiar face before him. His grip on the dagger tightened.
