It was a premeditated act of revenge."Chief Taylor, we've got bad news!" Another policeman rushed over, covered in sweat. "The killer is at the rooftop with a hostage! He threatened to jump to his death with the hostage if we refused to release him."Then, he handed a phone to Cyrus. Cyrus took the phone and saw the scene of Denver bellowing at the policemen with a female hostage in his arms.His eyes widened in shock as he recognized a pale-looking and tear-stricken Lauren in Denver's grip. His heart sank, and panic surged through his veins.How could Lauren be the hostage?Cyrus, who had always dealt with the toughest armed criminals with calm, found himself breathing unevenly. He immediately dashed toward the rooftop.At the same time, Angelina rushed toward him with fury in her eyes, holding Lauren's teddy bear."Is the hostage… Madam Lauren? Is that true?" She sounded teary.Cyrus nodded with a serious face. She looked like she was on the brink of a breakdown. She offer

Chapter 1712

Lauren's voice squeezed Cyrus' heart."Cyrus, save me…" Lauren's face was devoid of color. Tears rolled down her cheeks, which hurt to watch. He so wanted to comfort her, but such an attempt might provoke the criminal and place her in greater danger.He cast a deep glance at Lauren before shifting his attention to Denver's crazy eyes. He said, "Denver Whitman, please calm down. That young lady is innocent. She has no idea about your backstory and doesn't even know the five students. She's just an innocent outsider."How about this? I'll take her place as the hostage. You'll set her free."Lauren watched Cyrus approach Denver through tears, crushed by feelings of guilt. She thought, "How could I have been so dumb? I should've waited for Angie in the classroom. If only I had run faster!" Alas, it was too late to regret.Denver growled when he saw Cyrus approaching, "Don't come any closer, or I'll slit her throat and jump off this rooftop. We'll meet our end together!""You think I

Such corruption would not have been allowed in the district under Cyrus' jurisdiction."Sir, I… I know your… pain…" Lauren opened her swollen eyes slowly. Her soft voice was devoid of the fear when she was first held hostage. Instead, she sounded heartbreakingly resilient. "I have… had similar experience… as your daughter…"Looking shocked, Denver gasped, "What did you say?""Please… trust that I will… stay by Joanna's side… until she puts behind her trauma. I will avenge her…" Lauren struggled to speak due to the debilitating fear that suffocated her."What can you do, you weak woman?""I'm… the daughter of Javier Beckett. You can… search me up… on your phone…" Covered in sweat, she added, "Jasper Beckett, the president of the Beckett Group… is my brother. My sister-in-law is Alyssa Taylor of the KS Group. Don't you think they are powerful enough to… avenge Joanna?"Cyrus had a newfound respect for Lauren. Anyone else would have been crippled by fear, but Lauren held onto what r

Lauren felt a chilling sensation on her back, but it was too late to dodge Denver's attack.However, Cyrus would not allow Denver a second opportunity to hurt Lauren. He instantly grabbed the gun from his waist and held Lauren by the waist, pulling her into a protective embrace. The next second, he pulled the trigger, shooting Denver in the right arm and the left leg.Cyrus moved as fast as lightning. A criminal should not have given him any chance to attack, for he could turn the tables in no time.The aggrieved Denver yelped and grimaced as he felt limply onto his knees. Upon seeing that, the police swarmed him and put handcuffs on him. They finally managed to arrest Denver Whitman, the poor father who had committed crimes to avenge his beloved daughter.After Denver collapsed, the snipers left their positions because they lost sight of their target, who was blocked by the rooftop railing. That was the reason Cyrus needed to shoot Denver in the leg.The gunshot induced fear in L

Angelina cracked her knuckles in anger. She snapped, "Mr. Landon is Mr. Beckett's best friend, and Mr. Beckett is Ms. Alyssa's… Anyway, do you think it's right to steal Mr. Landon's girlfriend? Aren't you scared of putting Mr. Beckett in a tough spot and upsetting Ms. Alyssa?""When did I say that I would steal his girlfriend? You and Mr. Landon have been paranoid all along." Cyrus lowered his eyes, casting a gentle glance at Lauren's lovely face. "If you keep thinking that way, you might actually make me consider giving it a shot to make up for your paranoia."I remember something Winston once said—does one not shoot one's shot just because there's a goalkeeper?""Mr. Cyrus, please remember that you're a police chief!" Angelina shot up furiously, momentarily forgetting that she was in the car. Her head promptly hit the ceiling, causing her to frown in pain. She pressed against her head and returned to her seat."Ms. Brands, you shouldn't guilt-trip me with my profession." He flash

Chapter 1716

On the way to the hospital, Landon watched a livestream showing Cyrus emerging from the academic building carrying a female in his arms. Although the woman was well covered, Landon could recognize Lauren in Cyrus' arms just by her form.Landon had always suspected Cyrus of having feelings for Lauren. He perceived it as a blatant act of stealing the love of his life, Lauren. She was his everything. Any man who so much as laid a finger on her would be crossing a line."I am in the police force too. What's the difference?" Hearing Landon's accusations, Cyrus calmly smirked at him.Surprisingly, Cyrus did not fluster in the face of Landon and Harper Group's men.Landon clenched his jaw as he approached Cyrus. "Lauren is my lover. How dare you stop me, her partner, from coming to her rescue in that dangerous and urgent situation? Do you really think I don't know what you're plotting? Want me to lay it out for you and embarrass you?""Landon Harper, are you dumb or naїve? You might not

"Lauren!" Landon's eyes lit up in excitement. He eagerly rushed toward Lauren and gave her a tight hug. His voice trembled fearfully. "I'm sorry for showing up late. It was my fault that you suffered injuries. I am fucking useless! Hit me if you like. Hit me as hard as possible!"Landon's men were taken aback by his behavior. No longer behaving like a devil, Landon was just a hopeless man in love. They marveled at Lauren, who had charmed Landon into his subservient ways."Landon, why would you speak to Cyrus in that way? Why?" Lauren, being autistic, had a tendency to fixate on things. Her stubbornness might be distressing for some. She insisted, "Why would you say that about Cyrus? I would've died if not for him! He saved me. So, how could you be so mean to him?"Her endless whys and hows would have triggered anyone. However, Landon only hugged her tight and whispered tearfully into her ear, "Lauren, you must have been so scared and shocked. I was a loser for not protecting you…"

Chapter 1718

Alyssa and Jasper grew solemn in front of the serious-looking Cyrus. "Cyrus, go ahead.""You're well known as a couple who seek justice and fight for what's right." Cyrus sounded sarcastic.His remark prompted Jasper to glance at Alyssa. Jasper caressed her nape while replying, "Well, I'm not that great. I'm only assisting Lyse. She's the one who's outstanding, smart, and kind.""Cyrus was just teasing us! How could you make me shoulder his taunts while you act like the humble one?" Squinting, she playfully elbowed Jasper."I didn't tease you. I meant it." Growing serious, Cyrus explained, "The two victims killed today by the man who held Lauren hostage were members of a school bullying group."Jasper's eyes darkened, and his face paled. Similarly, despair flashed across Alyssa's eyes. The fated couple had both experienced bullying before. Therefore, they hated bullying behavior more than anyone else."The murderer had a daughter who had been severely bullied by the five students

Jasper did not appear doubtful. Instead, he was riddled with guilt. "I'm not the best brother to Lauren, and I feel sorry about it. I've never fulfilled my responsibility as a brother. I was oblivious to her suffering at home and realized it many years later after Lyse informed me about it. I am a disappointment.""Don't think of yourself that way. You're a good brother, and I can attest to it." Alyssa gently leaned into Jasper's arms and kissed him on the neck. "Let's not forget that Lauren wouldn't have gotten together with a doting boyfriend without your help. That alone makes you a good brother to her."Jasper was tempted by her. He looked at her affectionately as he held her by the waist and kissed her on the lips.A dejected look flashed across Cyrus' eyes. Before he entered the car, he said to them, "I'll send the information to you later. You can do anything you want with the bullies as long as it's not something illegal."…As Jasper and Alyssa were concerned about Lauren

Chapter 1720

Landon trudged back to the living room while looking dispirited. Angelina happened to descend the stairs after having coaxed Lauren to sleep.When Landon lifted his gaze, he accidentally met her eyes, causing her to hang her head fearfully."Stop lowering your head. You're about to bury your head in the sand. What are you, an ostrich?" Frowning impatiently, Landon sat on the couch and put a cigarette between his lips. However, he hesitated to light it when he recalled Lauren hated the smell of cigarette smoke.Angelina did not look up. She had always carried herself with arrogance and aloofness in public, a stark contrast to her present self—unsure, submissive, and guilty. She wanted to dig a hole and hide due to shame."Come here."She strutted over to Landon. The short distance felt like it took forever."Is Lauren asleep?" Landon asked in a low voice."Yes." She stared at her feet. Her voice was shaky. "I'll pack my stuff and leave immediately. I will not be an eyesore to you
