The wind whistling past on the rooftop seemed to transform into invisible blades."Of course," Nicholas replied in a low voice, without any unnecessary words.Having been in office for many years, he understood the principle of speaking according to the situation well.He knew that speaking too much often led to mistakes, especially when facing the woman before him, whom he recognized as no ordinary person. Alyssa was courageous and possessed the intelligence of a shrewd strategist.After all, she was the woman Jameson deeply loved."In that case, we share the same goals. We shouldn't be enemies but comrades fighting side by side." Alyssa smiled faintly."Ms. Alyssa, I don't feel I need to fight side by side with you."Nicholas' eyes turned cold. "You're a magnate, and I'm a public servant. Our paths should diverge. But regardless, thank you for saving my wife. I'll repay this kindness in the future. If not, perhaps in the next life."Alyssa frowned."I need to go back to take

Only by appealing to his interests could Nicholas possibly be moved.Alyssa stepped closer to Nicholas and slipped the report into his pocket before walking away without looking back.In the chilly wind, Nicholas trembled as he retrieved the paper. After reading it, he tore it up slowly and let the shreds scatter in the wind.Suddenly, his phone vibrated. Nicholas pressed it to his ear. "Yes, Carl.""Chief Novak, Mr. Schmidt asks you to act tonight."Nicholas took a deep breath. His gaze was dark. "Okay."…At 7:00 pm, Marc, accompanied by Colene and Matilda, arrived at KS World Hotel and held the press conference as scheduled despite his deteriorating health.He disclosed all the recent events of the Ivory members being manipulated by drugs and urged everyone to stay away from such dangerous substances, warning of the risks to life."I'll fully cooperate with the police investigation. And I support the police in thoroughly searching all Ivory members for any hidden drugs and

Terrified, Aidan felt his hair stand on its ends. He hurriedly covered the woman's corpse with a blanket.Trembling at the foot of the bed, he debated whether to call the police when there was a knock on the door.It was 4:00 am. Who could it be? It was certainly not room service.Aidan walked to the door. "W-Who's there?" His voice quivered uncontrollably."Mr. Aidan," came a calm and steady voice from outside. "I'm here on Mr. Schmidt's orders to help you."Aidan remained stubborn. "I-I don't need any help.""The woman you picked last night should still be in your room, right? How is she doing now?"Aidan's heart pounded in alarm as he rushed to open the door.A man stood outside, dressed in a black sports outfit with a cap pulled low and a black mask obscuring his features. Only his cold and sharp eyes were visible."H-How do you know?" Aidan was shocked.Without a word, the man played a video on his phone right in front of Aidan.The footage showed the entire scene from

Jameson chuckled. "There will be a sum transferred to your offshore account tomorrow. Please make sure to check it.""Mr. Schmidt, I'm not doing this for the money...""I know. But everyone who works for me will be duly compensated. This is your due."Jameson's words were clear, but his tone carried an inherent arrogance. "Besides, your wife's hospital bills must be considerable. Your savings likely aren't enough.""Thank you," Nicholas murmured.He then hesitated before asking, "Mr. Schmidt, several subjects have had severe adverse reactions, and some have even died. The new drug seems highly unstable. Can it really be successfully developed?"A silence followed on the other end.Nicholas, despite his vast experience, felt a surge of anxiety."Chief Novak, have you seen anyone recently?" Jameson's tone remained casual, even slightly amused.Nicholas's heart skipped a beat, but he forced himself to lie. "No. I'm just worried because my wife's condition worsens daily." His voic

Alyssa and Jasper exchanged a look of astonishment.They had always thought Aidan's arrogance and boasting would lead to his downfall eventually, but they hadn't expected it to happen so soon."Cyrus, did your people follow Aidan to find this out?" Alyssa asked curiously."No, we received an anonymous tip that led us to Aidan's stash of illegal drugs in a warehouse. But that's not all. We also found two bodies of the Ivory Gang members on a Lovelace Group's cargo ship near that warehouse."The couple's eyes widened in shock."The bodies were frozen, so they were well-preserved and hadn't decomposed. They were likely trying to use the ship to smuggle the bodies out of the country. After all, Solana City is filled with our surveillance. It's hard to dispose of two bodies here."Cyrus's voice dropped, sounding more serious. "We performed autopsies immediately. As expected, both bodies died from drug overdoses."Jasper frowned. His eyes deepened with thought."Cyrus, your team has

After Aidan's arrest, the Lovelace family plunged into unprecedented chaos.Edgar fainted in a fit of rage and was rushed to the hospital. The police immediately questioned Joseph, who aged a decade during his interrogation at the station.At the same time, he was slapped with a travel ban. He couldn't leave Solana City until the case was resolved.As Joseph prepared to enter his car with his entourage, an egg came flying out of nowhere and smashed on his head."How dare you experiment on live humans? You're insane! Don't call yourself a human!""You killed so many innocent people for drug development! Have you no conscience?""No more Lovelace Pharmaceuticals for me! Boycott Lovelace Group!"Joseph's face flushed red as he hurried into the car, and the luxury vehicle sped away.The smell of rotten eggs filled the car interior, making even the driver feel nauseous."Mr. Joseph, should we head home first to shower and change before visiting Mr. Edgar at the hospital?" Joseph's

"M-Mandy? Why..." Joseph's chest tightened. His expression changed in an instant.Despite their past animosity and Mandy slapping his face, seeing her still stirred something in him. His heated gaze lingered on her captivating face."With everything that's happened, you must be overwhelmed and haven't had time for Dad."Mandy set down the bowl and picked up a napkin to wipe Edgar's mouth. Without glancing at Joseph, she continued, "Even though I've married Winston, and you may not readily accept him, I am still a Lovelace. It would be heartless of me not to return at this time."Joseph frowned, feeling suspicious."Mandy... Thank you for coming to see me..."Edgar's eyes glistened with tears as he tightly squeezed Mandy's hand. "I've been too harsh on you before and caused us to misunderstand each other for so many years. We were at odds for so long. I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to make up for my mistakes...""Dad, it doesn't matter anymore. Everything's in the past,"

"Even if I did consent, so what?" Joseph admitted."Joseph Lovelace! Do you even realize what you did? You're trafficking drugs. You're leading Lovelace Group to doom!" Edgar was so angry that his view darkened, and his body trembled."Wrong! What I did was to save Lovelace Group!"Joseph stood tall. His eyes were devoid of any remorse or guilt. "Do you think the company's doing well now? Our drug sales have been declining year after year, with losses amounting to hundreds of millions annually. What you see is just what I wanted to show you!"Also, the Alzheimer's drug research project ran out of funds long ago! If Aidan hadn't come up with this idea and infused some cash, our company's financial chain would've snapped six months ago! So, in a way, you should thank me. Without me, Lovelace Group wouldn't have made it this far.""You jerk... You're spouting nonsense!"Edgar clutched his chest as he rebuked, "Even if our family falls into bankruptcy… and we have to beg on the stree

The snow was falling heavily, and the chilling winds howled through the night.Remy had no car, so he trudged through the snow alone, each step more exhausting than the last.His thoughts were consumed with Alyssa—was she still alive? In danger? And Jasper's unrelenting resolve to reach her, even after being shot and drenched in blood.Remy pressed his calloused, trembling hand to his chest. His heart hammered in his ribcage erratically.A sharp, searing pain shot through his temples, blurring his vision. He collapsed to his knees in the snow, his body racked with agony. The pain surged deep within him, and his eyes felt like they were going to burst from their sockets. It was unbearable.His breath came in ragged gasps. His hands scrambled for the necklace hanging from his neck—inside it was a hidden medicine box.Justin had told him that the medication in there could calm him down and relieve him of any pain. It would be able to save his life. But in his desperate haste, the

As subtle as Remy's expressions were, Jasper still noticed them. A slight twinkle flashed across his eyes. He did not have the time to continue entertaining Remy. He clenched his teeth, turned around, and started running toward Crater Mountain. Nevertheless, he had barely taken a few steps when gunshots were fired at his feet. Even so, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead and did not stop. Just then, another gunshot rang out. It wasn't until a bullet hit him in his right shoulder that the pain caused him to stumble. He almost fell to the ground but forced himself to stay on his feet. It was fortunate that he was shot in his right shoulder this time. After all, his left shoulder could not be injured any further. Otherwise, his left shoulder would be left in complete disability."If you take another step, the next shot will be in your left leg," Remy warned mockingly. Yet, his gaze was firm and fiery. "Jasper, I don't suppose you want to end up like your older brother, living in

A chill went down Jasper's spine. At that moment, staring down the barrel of the gun, one thought consumed him. It was the only thought that mattered—he had to stay alive to meet Alyssa!Jasper's mind raced. His gun was hidden under the driver's seat of his usual car, but today, he had taken a different sports car—one that wasn't equipped with a weapon. Panic gripped him for a split second before his instincts kicked in.The soldier within him stirred. Without warning, he jerked the steering wheel, ramming his car into Remy's.One of Remy's headlights was taken out and left rolling across the snow. All of a sudden, this prideful man was overwhelmed with anger. His eyes reddened with a strong sense of competitiveness, compelling him to pull the trigger. A shot rang out. The bullet sliced through the cold air, shattering Jasper's car window.From the very beginning, Remy hadn't intended to take Jasper's life. All Justin told him to do was to stop Jasper from meeting with Alys

"Jasper, you are such a jerk. If anything bad happens to Ms. Alyssa, you will surely regret it. You will live in regret your entire life!" Sean yelled. …The temperature tonight was -4 degrees Fahrenheit. The snowstorm in the woods on the mountain was getting stronger and stronger. The winds were freezing and bone-piercing as they blew against Alyssa's face. Trees swayed dramatically in the screeching winds, creating an inexplicable creepy atmosphere that added a feeling of desolation to Alyssa's sorrowful and depressive mood. She braved the bone-piercing winds and faced the heavy snowfall. With the help of her trekking pole, she plodded forward one step at a time. She did not have a destination in mind. She did not know where she was heading. Her heart had shattered, and she was beside herself. The decreasing temperatures discouraged her and made her lose all her motivation. For someone who had lost their willpower, being in the woods under extreme weather conditions wa

"Mr. Jasper, why do you say so?" Sheryl lifted her head and looked into Jasper's reddened eyes. She furrowed her brows and laughed out loud. "White Dove is from Solana City. This is also something that I wasn't able to predict. If I had known, I wouldn't have gotten you to make a trip here in vain, would I?" Sheryl was no longer that conniving bitch who used to act coy. Now, she had a powerful person backing her up. Jasper's violent rage did not scare her at all. "Why the hell didn't you say anything earlier?" Xavier marched forward furiously. He was even more inclined to serve her a slap. "Did you know that Mr. Beckett had an important date with Madam today? He only rushed her because of your stupid lead! Right now, you're telling us that White Dove isn't in Skydon but Solana City? What the heck are you scheming? Were you trying to ruin Mr. Beckett and Madam's date intentionally?" "Madam? Haven't Mr. Jasper and Ms. Alyssa broken up? Is it right for you to be referring to her

The skies started to turn dark. Alyssa's dark hair was covered in a layer of snow. As she stood alone at the foot of the majestic mountain, she looked tiny, fragile, and desolate. "Ms. Alyssa, it's snowing. Heavy snowfall is forecasted tonight." Elias walked to Alyssa's side. Noticing the redness on her face due to the cold and the dull look in her eyes, he had a moment of realization. He couldn't help but feel a wave of sadness within him. "It's getting late. I suppose something came up for Mr. Beckett, and he's unable to make it." "Why didn't he inform me if that is the case?" Alyssa mumbled in a low voice as she gazed toward the darkness. She choked back on her tears so softly that her grievance couldn't really be heard through her voice. Elias slapped himself on his forehead. "Ah, perhaps you didn't manage to receive Mr. Beckett's message? The reception at the foot of the mountain isn't quite stable. You might have missed it. Would you like to come to my office? You'l

Jasper held his breath. It felt as if his legs had been chained together. He was unable to move. Looking at a stiff Jasper from behind, Xavier noticed his shoulders trembling slightly. An ominous feeling rose within him. "What did you say?" Jasper questioned. He sounded as if he was forcing himself to hold himself back from getting emotional. "Mr. Justin once mentioned that you were saved by a female doctor when you were badly wounded on the battlefield many years ago. I heard that you have been searching for her and that you've been grateful toward her." Jasper's back stiffened up. He narrowed his eyes and asked in a frosty voice, "This is a private matter. Why would Justin have told you about it?" "Mr. Justin mentioned it to me because I also used to work as a doctor in Luminara. He was hoping that I could help with finding that woman. "I finally have news on her whereabouts now. Mr. Jasper, don't you want to see the White Dove again? She was the person who gave her all t

That night, Alyssa stayed in the presidential suite of Solana City's KS World Hotel. She couldn't bring herself to return to her own manor—not yet. The lingering memories of her breakup with Jasper were still too raw, and the thought of revisiting their former home felt like reopening an unhealed wound.The following morning, she was awakened by a knock at the door. Groggily, she slipped on her night robe and opened it to find Sean standing there, carrying a complete set of brand-new hiking gear.Alyssa smiled. "Thank you, Sean." "Ms. Alyssa, it's freezing today. Are you sure you want to go hiking?" Sean walked into the living room and placed the items neatly on the couch. He still felt somewhat worried. "It's alright if it's cold, as long as the weather is good."Alyssa gazed out the window. The sun was shining brightly. The thought of going hiking with Jasper today made it impossible for her to conceal the sweet smile on her face and the delight in her eyes. She still love

Remy's eyes were bloodshot; his expression twisted with disgust as he stared at Sheryl. He could hardly fathom how someone so deranged and vile had once been close to Jasper. Even if Jasper and Alyssa had separated, Sheryl was nowhere near worthy of Jasper's side; she was not even fit to be the dirt on Alyssa's shoes.A sudden flash of memory struck him—the image of Alyssa during that traffic accident. He recalled her mustering all her strength to crawl out of her wrecked car, her face bloody, her body broken yet defiant. He had never seen such a fierce spirit in a woman before.His heart pounded uncontrollably, the memory triggering a sharp pain in his temples. Remy closed his eyes, gasping for breath.Sheryl broke into wild, unhinged laughter. Her entire body shook as she spat out her words, "Oh, Jasper, you poor, clueless fool!"If he ever discovers that the woman he's been tormenting all this time is actually his savior—the one he's been desperate to repay—that would be an eart
