"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

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

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

Nicholas stood frozen in place. His mind was buzzing.It wasn't until the nurse called out to him that he took slow, heavy steps toward the ward.Natalie appeared frail and gaunt as she leaned against the bed. Her eyes widened with panic, mirroring a startled deer, as she tightly held Alyssa's hand.Standing by the window, Alyssa gently stroked Natalie's back. She whispered soothing words to help calm her emotions.Nicholas watched dumbfoundedly at the door.Phoebe, who had been tending to Natalie for almost a decade, sometimes struggled to manage Natalie due to the torment of her illness. Alyssa had just met her, so how could they already get along so well?And under Alyssa's comfort, Natalie's emotions stabilized entirely without the use of tranquillizers. It was simply unbelievable."Nat!" Nicholas walked over with a pale face. He pulled Natalie into his arms and held her tightly."Mrs. Novak, you kept asking me where your husband was just now, right? He's here now." Alyssa'

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
