"I intended to do so as well," Jonah replied, nodding solemnly.Winston looked at his old friend. "Victor, it would help to have Josh aid in the investigation, given he's the CEO. You wouldn't mind if he aids Jonah, would you?""What's with the politeness? How could I possibly ignore something so serious that's affected Lyse? Help Uncle Winston as much as you can, Josh. You must investigate this thoroughly so Lyse is avenged!" Victor exclaimed.He was secretly grateful for Winston's decision. The police should've been called on to look into such a grave matter, but Winston chose to handle this privately on account of their decades-long friendship.If the police were involved, then so would the media. Since this incident occurred at Schmidt's Racecourses and Alyssa was injured from it, the Schmidt family's reputation would surely be affected if known to the public."Alright, I'll do my best to help Mr. Taylor," Josh said.However, Jasper's voice rang out the moment he finished spe

Sophia took a deep breath and went to open the door, acting calm. "What is it?""What are you doing here, Madam Sophia? Mr. Javier is searching for you all over the place." As Rory spoke, his eyes wouldn't stop peeking behind Sophia into the lounge."I was tired, so I found a place to rest. What are you looking for? You think I'm hiding someone?" Sophia leaned back against the door, arms crossed in front of her chest. She sneered. "Only an ugly and perverted mind would view the world as such. Go inside, then. Try to find a man hiding in here, or so help me!""That's not what I meant, ma'am."Rory didn't pursue the matter. He smiled politely and gestured for Sophia to exit the room. "Ladies first, Madam Sophia. Mr. Javier requests your immediate presence in the VIP area. Everyone is present save for you, Madam Sophia and Mr. Javier worries about speculation."…A peculiar atmosphere had settled in the VIP area.Zoe hid behind Cornelius, now pale and rigid as ice. Max had been b

Anger rose from within Alyssa as she clenched her fingers tight! She thought Max was being crafty with his words by twisting the truth. He was the one who had the intention to murder but was now attempting to push the blame onto Jasper. He was trying to stir things up to drive a wedge between Jasper and the Harper Group. He was trying to give Cornelius the confidence to stand up for him! "Jasper, this greatly affects the reputation of both our families. You shouldn't take this as a joke!" Sophia made herself appear like the head of the family. She pretended to be concerned for him as if she were doing so for the benefit of all.In a concerned voice, she said, "We know that you have always felt like you owe it to Ms. Alyssa because of your divorce. When you realize that she met with an accident, it's inevitable that you want to take revenge on her behalf …""Revenge? Mrs. Beckett, what made you say so?" Preston became more and more upset as he listened to her. He furrowed

Having watched Sophia being hit, not a single soul came up to stop Neil. Even the Harper family members who spoke up for her earlier did not stand up for her now. The reason was simple. Inevitably, none of them dared to ruffle Winston's feathers further. Lauren was scared beyond her wits. Plus, Landon was hugging her tight, so she couldn't move an inch. As for Betty, she even held her breath and withdrew like a coward despite witnessing Sophia taking the hit. This was one similarity between Sophia and Betty. They were both dastardly bullies who relied on their powerful backing. "Apologies, Mrs. Beckett. But this was also what you deserved. I hope that you will remember to be more mindful of your words in the future." Upon saying that, Neil retreated to Winston's side emotionlessly. "Y-You!"Initially, Sophia thought of throwing her temper. However, when she noticed that she lacked support around her, she started to act pitifully. She held her swollen cheeks in her hand

Everything unfolded like a well-polished, well-rehearsed script. After the hideous scene of Sophia abusing drugs in the lounge was exposed, the cops arrived immediately to arrest her. Then, the image on the screen showed the VIP area. Sophia had a manic and dismal look on her face. The close-up scene of her urinating on the spot and then being arrested by the police was also broadcast on the big screen. While still in the entertainment industry, she always admired Lyla as the leading lady. Many outlets featured Lyla, which helped the audience to remember her. She had hoped that she would also be in a similar position one day. And now, she finally obtained what she wished for. This unforgettable disgrace had shot her into fame. The incident was one for the books, and she became the talk of the town. "Oh my lord … Did Sophia just urinate in public? A high-class plutocrat actually wet herself because of a few minor cops? What a loser!" someone laughed. "Don't be silly! Do
