Without waiting for Carl to respond, Amber lowered her head timidly. "If it's a no, then… forget about it." "It's just driving a car. No problem." Carl didn't know how he should react. He lifted his hand and caressed the top of her head. "I may not have command over the major things, but I can still make decisions over small matters like this. If no one drives that high-end Ferrari Mr. Schmidt gifted you, it will eventually be scrapped. That was also Mr. Schmidt's kind gesture toward you. Don't waste it. Drive it." Amber beamed. Yet, that alluring smile of hers was not reflected in her eyes. She drove her red sports car toward Solana City's largest antique jewelry gallery. They planned to get a birthday gift for Jameson from there. A crystal oil burner caught Amber's eye. The shop owner sang praises of her for having a good eye. She smiled sweetly. Just as she was about to swipe her card, Carl jumped ahead and paid seven million dollars without batting an eyelid. "We've

Both Jameson's and Carl's jaws dropped."What are the cops doing here? I don't care what you do. Just stop them from entering!" Carl commanded while he glared. Jameson's bodyguard was drenched in sweat. "But… But they've already…"Jameson lowered his head. He asked gloomily, "What's their team leader's name?""His last name is… Taylor." Carl widened his eyes immediately. He looked nervously toward Jameson, who was looking emotionless.Right at this moment, the hospital room door burst open, and Jameson watched Cyrus march in. He was casually dressed, and he had a frigid air about him. "Hello, Mr. Schmidt. I believe I won't need to introduce myself again," Cyrus smirked coldly. That said, he still flashed his badge per his usual practice. "It's been a while, Cyrus." The smile on Jameson's face was friendly and warm. There was not a single hint of wickedness in his smile. "You don't have to address me in such a friendly manner." Cyrus was an experienced criminal investiga

It had been almost 24 hours since Jameson was detained in the police station's interrogation room. When he was at Kontina, countless people curried favor with him, sang praises about him, and sought favors from him. The amount of people who kissed up to him was outrageous. When he returned to his country, he ruled The Millennium at night. Currently, he was in complete control of Schmidt Group. He was an unparalleled leader whom many looked up to. He was surrounded by endless power, money, and pride. These placed him high up on a pedestal. It had been a long time since he was last put in captivity and treated disrespectfully like this. Every passing second and minute felt like ages. It was excruciating. More than that, it was humiliating. "We're almost at the 24-hour mark. When will I be able to leave?" Jameson sat on the cold and uncomfortable chair in the interrogation room with his legs crossed. There was a chilling harshness behind his gold-framed glasses. "What's with

Jasper helped Briar settle down and ascertained that she wouldn't be in danger. After that, he traveled overnight to rush back to Solana City. Worriedly, he returned to his home with Alyssa. The moment he entered the door, he heard the sound of Alyssa's melodious laughter coming from the living room. She and Rosie were watching a television series together.Jasper felt relieved. A smile spread across his face slightly. He draped his suit over his forearm and walked over quietly. "Madam, you haven't rested at all after such a busy day. Yet, you even made dessert for Mr. Jasper. It must be so tiring for you." Rosie plucked an icy cold grape and put it on Alyssa's palm. Her eyes filled with concern. "You can leave these things to me. You should take the opportunity to rest." "It's alright. I'm not tired. Plus, I get to focus on doing one thing and declutter my mind when I'm making desserts. It helps me to feel more relaxed."Alyssa smiled and ate the grape. She even fed a grape

Jameson stared at Alyssa deeply. There was a gleam in his eyes that was so full of yearning. "If you are the innocent and kind Jimmy that I once knew, I will send my sincerest wishes even without you telling me to do so." The expression on Alyssa's face was frigid. She remained unwavering. "But right now, I cannot fulfill your request. Even if I forced myself to say it, it would not be sincere. It won't mean anything." Jameson smiled slightly. He wasn't angered because of this. "Do you remember the birthday present you gave me when we were young? When my father chased me out of Solana City, I didn't bring anything with me. All I brought to Kontina was the gift that you gave me. Do you remember what you gave me, Lyse?" Alyssa clenched her hands into tight fists by her sides. She didn't reply. Of course she still remembered. "There was one year when the kids at school were into toy car racing. Everyone had them except for me. At that time, I was ostracized and became their
