Amber's heart pounded against her ribcage as her organs contorted in fear. Despite the panic, she did not betray a hint of emotion. She owed her exceptional mental fortitude to the training administered by Jameson, which she now employed against him.In her silence, he grinned maliciously and advanced slowly toward her. All of a sudden, he produced a gun from his waist and pressed the muzzle against her sweaty forehead."M-Mr. Schmidt!" Carl turned pale at the sight as his heart leaped into his throat."Amber Altman, were you the traitor? Answer me," he confronted her word-by-word with a murderous look in his eyes.She stared into his eyes but remained silent."Answer me!" he roared, the veins in his hands bulging in anger."Yes," Amber admitted, knowing there was no escape. The moment Jameson aimed the gun, he had known about her betrayal. This was no interrogation.Driven by his ruthless nature, he wanted the woman—whom he had raised and molded into Alyssa's doppelgänger—to be

In the next moment, Jameson wrapped the arm holding the gun around her waist and pulled her closer until their bodies pressed. "Good job. Not only do I not blame you, I need to praise you. You revealing the information to Angelina messed up her plans, forcing her into solo action. She fell into Preston Harper's trap and lost her life because of it."Her death put Landon Harper into agony. His hair greyed overnight."She remained stoic. Every word coming from his mouth ripped a piece of her heart out, the bloody and shameful mess scattering across the ground."Keep up with your plan and go big. I know you won't disappoint me." He released her and examined her figure. "Axel Whitaker's clothes look good on you. Remember to wear the same windbreaker at his funeral."…When Amber returned to her bedroom, the shades of sunset illuminated her lifeless face.Stumbling to the full-length mirror, she slowly removed the black windbreaker. Fully naked, she revealed the shameful marks on her

The two of them sat in silence, feeling helpless as if they had been stranded on a deserted island during a storm."I have something that might or might not be of help to you." A thought occurred to Wesley. Wesley began, his voice barely above a whisper. "Aidan Lovelace of Lovelace Pharmaceuticals met with Jameson Schmidt two nights ago and had a private chat in a lounge."The revelation introduced a frown to Amber's face.Wesley recounted, "That guy showed up like he was ready to take down anyone, but he seemed calmer after the talk. I was stationed outside the lounge with another colleague but couldn't hear anything because of the excellent soundproofing." He let out a frustrated sigh.Still, the information provided Amber with a lead. Lovelace Pharmaceuticals was the top pharmaceutical company in the nation. From what she heard, Jameson had been running the pharmaceutical business on Sir's behalf in Cyrris. Therefore, Jameson's priority must be to beat the Lovelaces, his busines

Upon Alyssa's request, Julien ran tests on the drug from Justin right after he returned. The results were beyond his expectations. To his surprise, the drug was exceptionally effective. Other than the side effect of making patients drowsy, it would not negatively affect the body. Alyssa studied the data on the lab report in the guest room. She had a conflicted look on her face. "What is this drug called?" "I have no idea." Julien shook his head. Alyssa was dumbfounded. "I don't know what this drug is called. However, its components are essentially the same as the components of the medication that RC Biotechnology Research Institute in Mosgravia developed to target Alzheimer's a year ago. "That being said, that drug was only revealed to the public via a series of announcements. It has not yet been officially put on the market. I'm not sure if this is the same drug." Julien let out a long sigh. "Fortunately, there isn't much problem with this drug. It should be helpful fo

Justin's honesty took Alyssa by surprise. Initially, what she thought was that if Justin denied the fact that the drug was from RC, it would mean that he had something to hide about all this. The likelihood of him being suspicious or there being something wrong with the drug that RC developed would be high. Even if the problem weren't with the drug that Lauren took, it would be enough to show that there was something fishy going on. However, she really had no idea what to say right now. "To be exact, I have dealings with RC and various pharmaceutical research companies in Mosgravia." Justin coughed softly. He let out a helpless smile. "All these years, my broken body has been a testing ground. I have taken countless types of medications. I would have given them a shot as long as they could improve my health."It's also exactly because of this that I came to know RC better. I also got a better understanding of the drugs that they are developing." "There have been many advan

The look on Alyssa's face suddenly turned dark. "Justin, whether or not I can or want to conceive, these are all my personal matters. These are not for you to worry about." "As Jasper's brother, I am one of the people who understand him. I know that he loves children. The way he cared for young Lauren when he was young already showed what a fatherly figure he was. Even if he doesn't say it, I'm certain he would love to start a family with you." Alyssa felt suffocated as a sharp pain shot through her heart. "I might have overstepped. But I am only wishing the both of you all the happiness in the world in everything I do."Justin's tone was serious and warm. "If you accept the treatment willingly and become well, Jasper will be happy, and you will not have any regrets. Don't you think so? I will arrange everything after I get back. You may come over for the treatment any time." Upon saying that, he turned around and headed outside. "I will not go." Without any hesitation, Al

Landon's pupils constricted. All of a sudden, his vision started to blur. "She's dead?" "Yes. She died a horrific death. They almost couldn't identify her when her body was discovered." Jordan knitted his brows together tightly. Then, he continued in a low voice, "When the authorities performed an autopsy on her, they discovered that she had been sexually assaulted. She had severe STDs festering in her lower body." Landon shut his reddened eyes. He tightened his grip on the water basin, and his hands trembled slightly. "Who was she assaulted by?" "Many." Jordan hesitated before continuing, "Not long after arriving at Tsulu, Zoe was sent to an underground club. That place is actually a high-end brothel. The women there provide sex services specifically to the big shots at Tsulu. "I heard that all the women there end up in the same way. They would all be completely fucked up. Even if Zoe wasn't murdered, that's just how things would have ended up for her." Landon lowered hi

Newton clicked his tongue. "Look at Javier. He's such a blabbermouth. He can't even keep his thoughts to himself." Newton decided to be frank with Landon. He grinned, "Truth be told, Landon, Javier and I are here to officially propose your marriage to Lauren." "Grandpa Newton…"Landon's breathing became heavier as he became overly emotional. He stuttered, "Grandpa Newton… I…"All of a sudden, he burst into tears. Tears of joy streamed down his face like a waterfall. Lauren mustered up all her strength to give Landon a tight hug with her frail body. She lifted her reddened face to look at him as drops of his tears fell onto her face. Although she could not speak, her gaze was full of tenderness and happiness. The look in her eyes gave him great comfort. "You don't have to say anything, Lauren. I get you." Tears welled up in Newton's eyes. He put Lauren's and Landon's hands together. "I am getting old, and so will Javier. You are the only one who can journey with Lauren til
