“I’m going to kill him! I’m going to kill him, even if it’s the last thing I do!” Alyssa yelled hysterically, struggling in her brother’s grasp.
Silas and Jonah quickly came over, both shocked by how Alyssa was behaving.
Though they knew Alyssa to be steadfast and swift to take action, she was always composed, never as hysterical as she was right now.
The aggressor was swiftly locked up in the car. Before it drove off, he even shot Alyssa a dark, cunning grin.
“Don’t let him go easy, Cyrus! Don’t!” Alyssa cried, glaring at him with all her might. Pain and anger welled up in her chest.
“Don’t worry, Lyse.” Cyrus nodded, getting into one of the cars.
Alyssa stood alone, watching the cars leave. She was shaking terribly, her hands balled into fists.
“Lyse.” Jonah came over to hug her.
now to have the best doctors treat him. I’m sure he’ll be fine.”
“Yeah, Lyse “
Silas went to her side, adding, “Jeremy’s been in the army before, so his body’s seen worse. That hit on the head is probably nothing to him.”
“Nothing to him?” Alyssa’s heart clenched painfully.
She ground her teeth, exclaiming. “That bat was made of metal! He may be strong, but it’s already a miracle that he didn’t die from that hit right then and there. Yet here you are still saying… that it’s nothing to him?”
Silas flinched, feeling upset at himself. Now wasn’t the time to kid around.
“I know every single doctor in our family’s hospital, but no one is a better doctor than myself.”
Alyssa took a deep breath, pushing away from Jonah. “I’m going to the hospital right now. If anything happens to Jeremy, he’s answerable to me!”
The two Taylor brothers sighed in unison as their sister left.
“Did I misspeak just now, Jonah?” Silas asked worriedly.
“You did. Jeremy saved Alyssa’s life after all, and he still hasn’t completely recovered. You shouldn’t have joked about it,” came Jonah’s stern response.
“It’s my fault… It was only thanks to Jeremy that Lyse wasn’t the one being sent to the hospital right now. I shouldn’t have spoken without thinking. I didn’t mean anything bad…” Silas sighed.
The more he thought about it, the guiltier he felt.
He cried, “Please help me, Jonah… I’m so worried Lyse will stay angry at me!”
“She won’t. Lyse never stays mad at us for more than a night.”
Jonah grew serious and patted Silas’ shoulder. “But remember to not call him ‘Jas’ in front of Alyssa anymore. Be respectful.”
Siias nodded, feeling overwhelmed.
Meanwhile, Jameson was standing on the second floor overlooking KS World Hotel’s ballroom.
He watched as Winston and Newton hurried down the stairs. A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
“Mr. Schmidt.” His secretary quickly went to his side.
“Ms. Alyssa went to Madam Lyla’s defense when an aggressor attacked them, but Jeremy Walsh protected her just in time, taking the blow to the head himself.”
Jameson’s brows furrowed.
“A blow on the head… My goodness. Why did he do that to himself?” The secretary murmured, astonished.
“Keep your tongue in line or I’ll do it for you!” Jameson snapped, shooting the man a glare.
Frightened, the secretary instantly shut up.
“What happened after? Did Jeremy die on the spot?” Jameson asked darkly.
“No He lost consciousness. The injury was quite serious. He ended up bleeding from the head.”
“What about Ms. Alyssa?”
Swallowing nervously, the secretary said, “Miss… Ms. Alyssa went after him to the hospital.”
“Wonderful … hahaha… just wonderful.” Jameson chuckled evilly, bristling like an untamable beast was on the edge of losing itself from its leash within him.
“I love a good game of cat-and-mouse. You really are giving your all for Lyse, aren’t you, Jeremy?
Sacrificing yourself again and again to gain her affection.
“Enjoy it while you can because I’ll soon rip all that away from you. As long as I’m alive, you’ll never be able to win Lyse over!”
Jeremy was sent straight to Taylor General Hospital’s ER. Meanwhile, Jonah and Winston hurriedly led
Newton and his men over to the hospital.
“Jeremy! Oh Jeremy, my poor grandson!” Newton cried, stumbling to the ER.
If Winston and Jonah hadn’t been supporting him, he wouldn’t have been able to walk all the way here.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Walsh Senior. We have the best doctors and top-notch medical equipment in this hospital.
“I’ve also asked Jonah and my other sons to call on all available specialists to save him. Your grandson will be healed in no time!” Winston promised, though he was just as worried.
“Why… Why did this happen?” Newton cried, sitting down in a chair.
Unshed tears glinted in his eyes. “Oh my poor grandson … you have to stay strong!”
“Grandpa …”
Everyone turned to look at who had spoken, only to find Alyssa walking over. She slowly went to Newton’s side before kneeling down before him on one knee.
“Allison…” Newton mumbled, seeing how pale she was.
“I’m so sorry, Grandpa,” Alyssa choked out.
“Jeremy’s become like this all because of me.”
“Lyse… What are you saying?” Newton stared dully at her, stunned by her words.
“Things went out of hand. Someone tried attacking us. I was trying to protect Lyla and couldn’t defend myself. Not even our bodyguards were quick enough…
Alyssa recalled how Jeremy had leapt to her aid, protecting her and taking the hard hit himself.
Tears clouded her eyes. Even her breathing grew harsh.
“Just when I thought I was done for, Jeremy ran out to protect me. If it hadn’t been for him, I would be the one in the ER right now.
“This is all my fault, Grandpa… I shouldn’t have been so slow. You can punish me or scold me to Jeremy this time.”
???? ??
I owe it
“What are you talking about, you silly girl?” Newton’s eyes burned with tears as he pulled Alyssa up to her feet.
“I’d be upset regardless of whether it was you or Jeremy in there right now! If it really had been you … I would only be more devastated!”
Feeling touched, Alyssa barely managed to croak out, “Grandpa…”
“Don’t feel guilty just because Jeremy did this for you, Alyssa.” Newton gently caressed Alyssa’s hair, his eyes filled with tenderness.
“That foolish boy mistreated and held you back for a whole three years, even hurting you so deeply.
“He’s got what he deserved now! Don’t worry. That hit just might finally wake him up for good!”
Alyssa knew Newton was only trying to console her. Which grandparent wouldn’t be distraught at the sight of their own grandson in such a dire state?
