After a belch, Simon grumbled, "Damn it! Do you really believe I would have willingly joined your ridiculous little party if I hadn't bungled the Sophia Kirkman case?"He tugged on his tie and spat on the floor. "Just wait and see. I'll secure a perfect win at Sophia Kirkman's court hearing. You'll beg for my help then, and I won't even cast a look at you!"As he reached for his phone to call an Uber, a group of hooligans sporting colorful patterned shirts under their suits approached him. Grinning, they wielded sticks and swiftly closed in on him."W-What are you doing?" Simon's eyes widened. He instantly sobered up."Can't you tell? We're here to rough you up." Just then, someone struck Simon's back with a stick, causing him to crumple to the ground.Coughing, he growled, "Do you know who I am?" His bones seemed to have cracked under the pressure. Huddled on the ground, he continued shouting at them out of pride, "I'm an attorney—the legal counsel of the Beckett Group. The presi

"Why can't I? I'm your wife!" Daisy could not be bothered to maintain her image as the congressman's wife. Instead, she grabbed Timothy by the collar and shook him hysterically. "How could you do this to me after all I've done for you, you heartless bastard?"Just as she was about to slap him, he grabbed her wrist and pinned her hands to the back. Losing her balance, she knocked against the door and inhaled sharply from the pain. "Argh!" She widened her eyes in shock as she complained, "How dare you hit me? I'm the daughter of the Schmidt family. Lay a finger on me? I'll tell my dad and Josh about this!""Tell them, then! I've had enough of you, you filthy bitch!" Timothy lost his cool and pointed a finger at her stunned face. "The election is around the corner. If you make a scene, all your efforts will go down the drain. You and I are chained by fate. If I go down, you'll go down with me!"The color drained from her face as she stared blankly at Timothy. She had never expected t

Alyssa had dreamed of hearing such loving words from Jasper's mouth for a long time, but they remained a dream. Now that Jasper clung to her and repeatedly showered her with sweet talk, she found it a little annoying.Every time he touched and kissed her, he'd set off fireworks in her mind. Succumbing to his charm, she allowed herself to fall deeper into him.Even if she did not express her love in the form of words, Jasper could tell from her reaction to him.Gathering herself, she wrapped his tie around her fingers. "Jasper, weren't you a gentleman in the past? Why are you like a dog that's gone into heat?"She suddenly covered her mouth upon realizing her wrong choice of words. He might have acted like a hot-blooded teenager, driven crazy by lust, but she decided to watch her mouth out of respect.To her surprise, he panted heavily, eyes dripping honey. He caressed her nape and pressed his forehead against hers, saying, "Lyse, I'm your dog."Her heart raced wildly as her cheek

The atmosphere in the grand hall of the city hall was tense and serious. The audience was comprised of important officials and business representatives from Solana City and all across the nation. At that moment, Orlander Hodgson was delivering a keynote speech onstage. Members of Congress and business representatives sat in the front rows, while family members like Daisy were arranged to be seated in the back.As the only daughter of the Schmidt family, Daisy was especially important in high society. Still, today's event was mostly their husbands' arena. As a spouse, she had no say in the event. An attention-seeker, she was displeased at the treatment at the event, especially knowing that she was the reason behind Timothy's career success. Without the support of the Schmidt Group, the guidance of Victor Schmidt, and her meticulously crafted public persona, Timothy would never have achieved success smoothly.The more she thought over it, the happier she felt. It took her mind of

"Oh, my God! Who did this? This is amazing!""Gathering so much evidence and revealing it at such a crucial moment? This is aimed at destroying Timothy!""Could it be Mr. Hodgson? After all, they're rivals in this election.""That's possible. But does the Hodgson family have such means? The mastermind behind this must be someone stronger."Flashlights were flickering. All cameras captured the shocked Timothy, who was trembling uncontrollably on the stage.Some reporters were no longer satisfied with just taking photos. They rushed toward the podium, aiming their microphones and cameras at him."Mr. Clemons, are the pictures real?""Did you take bribes? Are you involved in illicit transactions?"Timothy's lips trembled uncontrollably, and he staggered backward. "It's not me! Someone photoshopped it. Someone is trying to set me up!""What about the ledger? How do you explain that?""It's fake! It's all fabricated! I never took that money! Never!"Timothy was drenched in sweat

The venue was in chaos, and security personnel were deployed to maintain order.However, the event was grand, and numerous media outlets were invited. All the reporters swarmed Timothy, trapping him in the middle and making it difficult for him to move.That was how the media industry worked. For them, scandals were like blood in the water, and they were the sharks.Moreover, this was an epic scandal.Victor's son-in-law, the hottest contender in the city's mayoral election, was actually involved in embezzlement and illicit affairs.Who wouldn't want to be the first to report this? Every reporter was eager to devour Timothy alive."Mr. Hodgson, should I contact headquarters to send more personnel? The situation is getting out of control." Orlander's secretary hurriedly approached Orlander.Standing in an inconspicuous corner, Orlander left the spacious stage to his rival with a smile that suggested he enjoyed watching the spectacle."Let's just quietly enjoy the show. You don't

Silas' eyes were stern as he spoke. "I'm here on official orders. The Investigative Bureau has approved the arrest of Mr. Timothy Clemons for investigation. Please let us do our job.""We weren't notified. We only know that unauthorized personnel are not allowed to step inside." The bodyguard's attitude became more uncompromising.As Silas smirked, his eyes turned cold. "Do you know that you're already breaking the law?"The bodyguards had a strong backing, so they didn't take Silas seriously."Looking at your attire, you're obviously not official personnel. Given your fear of us entering to make an arrest, I'm suspecting you're affiliated with Schmidt Group." Silas chuckled.The bodyguards suddenly panicked.Before they came to stop the prosecutors, Josh had explicitly ordered them not to mention a word about the Schmidt Group, no matter how they were pressured.They just had to stall the prosecutors to give more time for the Schmidt family's operations. If Timothy was taken aw

Hell on Earth? This place resembled a decrepit hospital. But why had Sheryl described it as "hell on Earth"?Amber's body convulsed uncontrollably, her consciousness flickering between clarity and haze. Fragments of memory surfaced—a dim recollection of drinking with Carl in the cellar after The Millennium's closure. She'd despised working with Carl but had cozied up to him for the sake of extracting information.Carl had revealed that "Sir" was deeply entrenched in the pharmaceutical industry. With connections to Mosgravia's government officials and elite circles, "Sir" wielded considerable power and ran a thriving business. Since his business revolved around pharmaceuticals, clinical trials were inevitable. To facilitate this, Sir owned a private hospital in Mosgravia.That hospital, however, was merely a façade. Beneath its sterile exterior, three basement levels housed patients—unwilling subjects for experimental drugs.Amber shivered. This place bore an uncanny resemblance t

"Amber will be fine," Jasper said confidently. "Based on Justin's way of doing things, he won't harm her for now. She's still useful t o him. He'll exploit her to control you and Alyssa, and to keep me from taking him down."Gripping Jasper's arm, Axel pleaded, "Jasper, I have to save my wife… What should I do?" His eyes were red, brimming with unshed tears.Steadying his breath, Jasper replied, "Even if it comes to killing Justin, it shouldn't be your hands that get dirty. I'll do it.""Are you kidding me? If we're taking that bastard down, we do it together!" Axel's expression was fierce and unyielding. "We went through the same military academy. We have to fight side by side!""Justin is my older brother. It's my family's matter to handle. And don't think I'm doing this for your sake—I have my own reasons."After a moment of silence, Jasper's voice softened. "I came to see you today for another reason. When you get home, don't blame Lyse. She's been torturing herself with g

When Axel heard the news, he immediately returned to the city where his organization was based. Without even reporting back to work, he booked the earliest red-eye flight to Cyrris. His eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep, and when he emerged from the arrival gates, an ominous air surrounded him. A black luxury car awaited him at the exit.Standing in front of the car were Jasper and Xavier, who had been waiting anxiously for his arrival.Axel's gaze locked onto Jasper's fiery eyes. His presence radiated fury, unrestraint, and a barely contained viciousness. A strong gust of wind swept through the terminal. Snow danced in the air, tangling both Jasper's and Axel's hair into disarray."Let's talk in the car, Axel," Jasper said in a low, measured voice.Red-eyed, Axel insisted, "I need to find my wife right now." "That's exactly why I'm here. Get in the car, and we'll talk." Jasper turned on his heel. His tone grew colder. "But let's be honest—you won't find her no matter ho

Jasper wanted to console Alyssa but found himself at a loss for words. So, he remained silent. "Disappointed, aren't you?" Alyssa sniffled as she smiled bitterly."Not at all." Perhaps he had been expecting too much. As a woman, she was intelligent, capable, and a strategist for victory. Beyond that, she boldly stepped forward to fight against the dark forces. She was strong and perfect as she was—why should he expect her to be anything more?Yet, seeing Alyssa's vulnerable side unsettled him. Something tugged at his heartstrings, a deep ache he couldn't ignore."I found it! I found Ms. Altman's cell phone!" With more manpower and better visibility as the sun rose, it didn't take long to locate Amber's bloodied phone. "Ambs…"Alyssa's face drained of color as terror gripped her at the sight of the bloodstained device. Jasper, on the other hand, remained composed. He tried powering on the phone, and to their surprise, it turned on. "What's the password?" Jasper asked g

"Five times more potent than the previous version? Are you sure it's safe for Remy to consume this?" Sheryl picked up the pill, unease flickering across her face. As much as she despised Remy, she couldn't deny his prowess as a fighter and his value as Justin's right-hand man. Having him around would certainly ease Justin's workload, prompting her to double-check."It won't kill him, but it won't be pleasant either. Don't worry—it's temporary," Justin replied, a sinister smile curling his lips. He continued nonchalantly, "When he takes the pill, his adrenaline will spike, flooding him with energy while his muscles tense. He'll feel both pain and euphoria. Then, it will fade, leaving him dependent on the drug moving forward." The implication was clear to Sheryl. Justin intended to control Remy through addiction. "Remy wasn't born for the shadows," Justin continued, his gaze darkened. "He's just a victim of post-traumatic amnesia, his nervous system subdued with sedatives and anes

"Got it, Mr. Harper!" Harper Group's subordinates acknowledged before swiftly dispersing. "I'm going to search for Amber too," Alyssa said, turning to leave.Jasper caught her arm. "It's freezing. Go wait in the car." Landon chimed in, "Lyse, listen to Jasper. Just wait in the car. We'll search for Amber.""No—I have to come too!" Alyssa sniffled. The sharp wind stung her face, leaving her nose raw and crimson, her eyes watering until they puffed into tender, swollen crescents. "Amber's in trouble because of me. I was careless—it's all my fault!""Lyse…" Landon's heart sank at her remorseful expression.Jasper's gaze softened as he studied Alyssa's pale face. "Her disappearance isn't your fault."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes as she shook her head. "Amber means everything to Axel. If anything happens to her, I won't be able to face him. I don't deserve to be his sister. Please, let me come with you."Jasper and Landon failed to dissuade her. Reluctantly, they agreed. Alyssa

After studying Sheryl for a moment, Remy turned and left."M-Ms. Gillis, are you okay?" One of Sheryl's subordinates came forward to help her up."Useless bastard! Why didn't you step in when he hit me earlier?" Sheryl's voice trembled with fury as her gaze fell on the crimson stains marring the pristine snow.Stammering, the subordinate replied, "R-Remy acted too quickly. Everyone in the organization knows how good of a fighter he is. None of us stood a chance against him!""S-Something wasn't right about him tonight." Sheryl watched Remy's retreating figure disappear into the distance, her voice dropping to a menacing murmur. "I need to report this to Mr. Justin in person immediately."Inside his car, Remy gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands but made no move to drive.Closing his eyes, he felt a suffocating sensation rise in his throat, as though he were drowning in an endless, hopeless sea. He was just a speck, sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss.A shar

With a piercing gaze, Sheryl glared at Remy, who stood in front of her car with an air of frigidity around him. The temptation to ram her car into the crestfallen man was almost irresistible, but she didn't dare. Remy was Justin's right-hand man, and even her audacity had limits. Instead, Sheryl pulled her white coat snugly around her, stepped out of the car with feigned composure, and strode toward him. Hostility crackled between them as their eyes locked.Sheryl broke the silence. "Remy, is there nothing you'd like to update me about?" she asked with a sinister look in her eyes. Stiffly, Remy asked, "Where did you take that woman?" "How shameless of you to question me. Mr. Justin was wise to send me as backup. Otherwise, Amber would have escaped without a trace!"Gritting her teeth, Sheryl took a step closer to Remy. "Is this how you handle tasks entrusted by Mr. Justin? The unstoppable Remy, brought to his knees by a wild brat? Or did you let her go intentionally? Are yo

"Jameson and Carl have been eliminated. Who else could be targeting Amber?"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.He recalled seeing Justin in the living room earlier that evening, wide awake instead of resting. Was Justin waiting for something? Or perhaps, provoking him in subtle defiance?"They are the only ones I can think of with a grudge against Amber." Alyssa's anxiousness made her voice tremble. "Having worked for Jameson for years, Amber must have visited Mosgravia multiple times to meet with Sir—who is, in fact, Justin. "Justin wouldn't have met anyone else besides Jameson. But how could he leave no trace after all those interactions? Amber must have figured out his true identity. And Justin—he must have realized who she is, even with her changed appearance."Jasper's expression darkened. "So he decided to eliminate her as a precaution."Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes, threaten
