Nathan's case made no progress despite the Ivory being saved.Cyrus followed Alyssa's orders and had people secretly keep an eye on Aidan's movements.After taking care of Victor's funeral, Jameson visited Lily at Solana City's top nursing home.Thin as a stick, Lily sat in a wheelchair with her back to Jameson. A nurse attended to her as she basked in the sunlight in the courtyard.But seeing that, Jameson felt endless heartache. Her frail body seemed like it could turn to ashes at any moment under the sun, scattering in the wind."Mr. Schmidt, your mother's condition... is very poor," the doctor said worriedly while shaking his head."She's in the late stages of Alzheimer's. Not only is her memory fading, but her language abilities are also declining gradually. And with her heart condition, it's even more dangerous in this late stage of the disease."Jameson took a deep breath and pressed his pale lips tightly together."There's no miracle drug to cure Alzheimer's. My advice

"W-Who are you... Who are you?" Lily's bloodshot eyes widened, and she scratched wildly in the air, leaving two bloody marks on Jameson's face."You're not my son... Jimmy is not as wicked as you! He's not!"Jameson remained kneeling. Without moving, he watched Lily go mad with a cold and resolute expression.He felt like he was going mad too—just that his madness was quiet.Upon hearing the commotion, two nurses hurried over to restrain Lily, who was trembling and struggling."Call the police... Call the police... He's a murderer... A murderer!"But who would believe the words of a late-stage Alzheimer's patient?Lily shouted incoherently and was eventually pushed away by the nurses."Mr. Schmidt... don't be too upset. Madam Lily is not in her right mind now. Don't take her words to heart," Carl kept comforting Jameson.Witnessing the scene, even he felt extremely uncomfortable, let alone Jameson."How much longer... How much longer will it take?" Jameson closed his eyes. Hi

"They're backed by the Beckett Group. The only person who dares to do this is Jasper."Jameson slowly lifted his gaze, revealing the depth of darkness behind his golden-rimmed glasses. "Well, well, he's starting a social media war.""What's most annoying is that we can't remove this hashtag from the trending list! That would be like walking into his trap." Carl was quite smart.At that moment, a phone call came in.Jameson lowered his eyes and saw "Ms. Gillis" on the screen. He clenched his teeth and answered."Mr. Schmidt, why is there so much going on on your end? It's reached Mr. Justin's ears now. What's going on?" Sheryl's tone was stern, clearly demanding answers."It's Jasper's doing. He wants to make it chaotic and use public opinion to suppress me so that I can't act freely."Jameson was already simmering with rage, and with Sheryl's attitude, he was on the brink of exploding. "I'll call Mr. Justin to explain later.""Hmph! Save it. Mr. Justin is furious right now. He'

Jasper's eyes turned cold. Just as he was about to call the director of Solana Daily, Javier's call came in. He sensed trouble and wanted to avoid Alyssa while answering. Yet he feared she'd think he was hiding something, so he reluctantly turned and picked up the phone. His voice was barely above a whisper."Yes, Dad?""Did you order the release of that news about the human drug experimentation on Solana Daily's official Twitter?" Javier's tone was stern."Yes.""I've already issued orders to take it down. As for the hashtag, even if we don't remove it, someone else will!"Jasper frowned, and a vein throbbed on his forehead. "No, it can't be removed."Alyssa glanced at him with a poker face."It's not that I want to remove it; it's an order from above. First of all, this news is suspected to be fake news. It wasn't confirmed by the official source before being released."This has already caused a lot of pressure on the higher-ups. People are scared! If we don't handle it, trou

"Look, Lyse. It's always like this," Jasper said.Alyssa looked at him, feeling sorry for him. She didn't blame him or reproach Javier.Even though they had to go against Jameson, the bond Jasper and Javier forged during Lauren's incident was precious. Alyssa hoped they wouldn't create further divisions."But don't worry. Even if Solana Daily doesn't publish it, I'll make sure other media outlets continue to report on it. It's just that their influence may not be as strong as Solana Daily's." Jasper's eyes burned red with frustration.The spark had just ignited. He couldn't let it be extinguished like this."This isn't your dad's fault. It's pressure from above." Alyssa's voice was gentle as she soothingly calmed his emotions."But what surprised me is that Justin called to intervene in this matter at this critical moment. I've been with your family for three years. Beckett Group has faced numerous commercial crises in the past, but he's always been unmoved."This time, it's jus

Even though the keyword "human experimentation" had been blocked, the public still managed to bring the hashtag back to the top of the trending list in another way. They refused to let it quietly fade away.The hashtag continued to trend, causing one of the participants, Aidan, to panic and immediately contact Jameson."Jameson! What the hell is going on? Didn't you say it was just a popular soft drug from abroad? How did it suddenly become an untested banned drug?"Having faced humiliation from Sheryl and being unable to reach Justin, Jameson now had to deal with Aidan's frantic inquiries. He had the urge to take out a machine gun and randomly kill people on the streets.But he had to endure it.He rose from being a forsaken outcast of the Schmidt family to forging his own path in Kontina. Now, thousands bowed before him. His success stemmed from his boldness, astuteness, and ability to remain composed under pressure.Jameson downed an entire glass of whisky and gasped for breat

In the following days, Alyssa and Jasper split up to attend to their own tasks.Although Jasper didn't openly defy Javier anymore, he continued to fan the flames behind the scenes. He was determined to use the spotlight of public attention to flush Jameson out of his dark hideout.This day, as Jasper was preparing to attend a meeting, he received an unexpected call from Colene."Madam Colene." His voice was calm and polite.Unlike her usual sharp-tongued self, Colene was surprisingly gentle in her treatment of Jasper. She even showed a hint of remorse."Jasper, I haven't properly thanked you for last time. If it weren't for you showing up on time, the Ivory would have been swindled by that dickhead Jameson."I still shudder at the thought. If we really lose the Ivory… I don't know how my dad could go on living. I'll be too embarrassed to face Winston.""Don't say that, Madam Colene. Everything I did was only right," Jasper replied humbly. "The trust that you, Winston, and all th
