That night, inside the villa, two sweet couples sat in the living room. Their attention was directed at the news channel playing on the TV.
After a few minutes, the news began. It was a highly anticipated program of the day¡ªDaisy’s arrest.
The news report replayed the comical scene of Daisy being arrested by the police. It was still hilarious, even upon a second viewing.
“Hmm? That hot officer looks familiar. I think I’ve seen him somewhere.” Lauren poked her finger at her chin.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up. “Oh, I remember! He sat next to me at Madam Lyla’s birthday party. He even chatted with me¡ª”
Before she could finish her sentence, Landon’s eyes darkened. He couldn’t help but grab her chin and land a domineering and passionate kiss on her soft lips. It was a fierce and jealous kiss.
Meanwhile, Alyssa and Jeremy were absorbed in watching the news. When they heard the amorous sound, they were momentarily stunned.
Suddenly, Jeremy moved his body, covering the explicit scene. Then he lowered his head to give Alyssa a deep kiss.
“Why? It’s R-rated, so you won’t let me see?”
Alyssa pursed her lips adorably. “I’ve seen all kinds of things in my life. It’s just a kiss.”
“No… I’m scared you’ll feel awkward.” Jeremy pinched her nose and smiled helplessly.
“Hmph, what’s considered awkward differs for each individual.”
Still jealous, Landon left Lauren’s lips.
Lauren’s eyes became watery as the events unfolded, and his kiss left her breath in disarray.
“Darling, are you trying to provoke me by mentioning other men in front of me?”
Landon repeatedly rubbed his fingers on her moist lips. His voice was husky as he said, “Hot guy? Is he hotter than me, huh?”
“Um… You’re both hot.” Lauren was blushing.
“What? Who’s hot?” Landon tickled her sensitive spot.
“Hahaha… You’re hot. You’re the hottest!” Lauren clung to him, laughing non-stop.
Alyssa crossed her arms and rested her head on Jeremy’s shoulder. As she glanced at Landon, she said, “If it weren’t because beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it’s tough to say which one of you is hot.”
Landon’s heartbeat pounded at her words.
Anyone could see that Alyssa favored Lauren a lot. If he hadn’t taken the initiative, Alyssa might have played matchmaker for Lauren and one of her brothers, making Lauren a Mrs. Taylor.
At this thought, he grabbed Lauren’s hand as if someone were going to compete with him.
The news then mentioned that Victor had been rushed to the hospital overnight, but the specific reason was unknown.
What else could it be except that he was enraged?
As the president of Schmidt Group, Josh was standing at the hospital entrance, facing the media’s relentless bombardment. His expression remained stiff, and he was visibly upset. It was as if he had lost his father.
Indeed, even if he was mentally tough, he was probably under tremendous pressure now, dealing with both internal and external troubles.
“This is awesome! Isn’t this more exciting than any show?” Landon embraced Lauren’s shoulder with his sturdy left arm and delightedly slapped his thigh with the other.
Lauren leaned into his embrace, licking the strawberry-flavored popsicle. After a few licks, she fed it to his lips.
Landon lowered his head and took a bite where she had licked. As he caressed her head, he looked at her affectionately.
“Daisy and her husband are both in jail now¡ªone for forcing women into prostitution, the other for playing threesome. They seem to be a great match. It’s true that birds of a feather flock together.”
Alyssa stared coldly at Josh’s pale face on the screen. “The Schmidt family’s father and son are overwhelmed now. It won’t be long before the prosecution summons them.”
Alyssa continued, “Victor’s sudden hospitalization may not be due to illness. It might just be a move to avoid trouble.”
Jeremy nodded in agreement. “Once the prosecutor initiates the investigation process and summons
Victor, he can claim illness to avoid interrogation.”
“Damn it! He’s really cunning,” Landon cursed angrily.
“Landon, what does ‘threesome’ mean?” Lauren asked, blinking her innocent eyes.
Lauren was really good at catching the critical point. The three of them fell into a momentary silence.
Landon awkwardly cleared his throat, pinching Lauren’s cheek. “Uh… When we get back to the room,
I’ll slowly explain it to you.”
After a while, the news report concluded.
The Schmidt family’s affairs consumed a significant amount of time, catering to their flamboyant and high-profile personalities.
“They’re really despicable… How can they force women to do such things?” Lauren’s eyes turned red with anger. “The police officers must arrest them all! They must bring justice to the victims!”
“They’ve already been arrested, darling. Don’t worry.” Landon sighed, holding her waist.
The living room fell into a sudden silence.
Even after Daisy’s arrest, David, who bullied Tatiana, was still on the loose. And then there was
Jameson, a real troublemaker, like a constant thorn in their hearts. So far, the progress bar for taking down the Schmidt family had only reached one-third.
Jeremy noticed the seriousness in Alyssa’s expression. He embraced her tense shoulders and comforted her softly, “Lyse, you’ve done an excellent job.
“The Schmidt family is one of the four major families. They’ve been here for a long time and are hard to get rid of overnight. You don’t need to worry about David. I’ll help you deal with him.”
“No, none of us needs to get our hands dirty.”
Alyssa’s eyes flickered with a cold glint as she smiled cunningly. “Someone will take out the trash for us.”
Landon looked puzzled. “Who?”
On the other hand, Jeremy understood immediately. He raised his eyebrows. “Are you talking about
Jameson?”
My man is so smart.” Smiling, Alyssa embraced his neck.
“Huh? But Jamebitch is a member of the Schmidt family. How could he possibly stir up trouble with
Schmidt Group in chaos?” Landon still hadn’t figured it out.
After all, love could blind a person.
“Jameson and his mother were banished to Kontina by the Schmidt family for a solid 15 years. During this entire time, Victor ignored them, behaving as though they were non-existent within the family.
“Jameson is an ambitious person. His mother has terminal-stage Alzheimer’s disease. You can imagine how much humiliation and resentment he has accumulated over the years.
“Would you still be on the Schmidt family’s side if it were you? You would definitely dream of trampling on them like bugs under your feet and then taking over the entire Schmidt family,” Jeremy explained calmly in his deep and husky voice.
“Take over the Schmidt family? That four-eyes is so greedy!” Landon sneered.
“If the Schmidts have the same goal and gather their efforts, Jameson won’t have a chance.”
Alyssa’s eyes darkened. “With the Schmidt family in turmoil, he could use the opportunity to get rid of the nuisances and spark internal conflicts.
“Now that Daisy is done for, he’ll undoubtedly go after David next, followed by Josh. With no one to support Victor, Schmidt Group will naturally fall into Jameson’s hands.”
Jeremy chuckled. “Lyse is right. This fits well with Jamiper’s cunning nature.”
“So, what we need to do now is to be adaptive,” said Alyssa.
Alyssa held onto Jeremy’s muscular arm, confidently raising her eyebrows. “As long as we don’t take any further actions and maintain a low profile, Jamiper will be unable to contain himself and will find a way to deal with David.”
The next day, when the stock market opened, Schmidt Group’s stock prices showed a decline, as expected. The drop was so quick that it was a heart-wrenching sight.
