A sharp glint flashed in Jasper's eyes as a thought struck him. "Could it be Justin or Sheryl?" he asked, his voice low and tense.

Jasper's gaze hardened. "Because your brother, Axel, loves her deeply. Now that she's part of the Taylor family, Justin doesn't just want to get rid of her he wants to use her to manipulate you and Axel."
