Chapter 261
Jasper had long heard about KS Group and Schmidt Group’s joint ventures, both in the country and overseas. Additionally, the
family heads had cultivated a close friendship spanning more than two decades.
Jasper pondered whether this meant that Alyssa had known Jameson since her childhood. He contemplated whether their close
bond had its roots in their shared childhood.
Xavier sighed, a look of envy and admiration in his eyes.”Ms. Alyssa truly is blessed. Her father dotes on her so much that he
surrounds her with all these elites. Even someone like Sean Lynch is only her personal assistant.”
He then eyed his boss, feeling pitiful on his behalf. Jasper’s title as CEO and soon-to-be VP of the board of directors seemed
minute accomplishments compared to the grandiose Alyss a was steeped in.
Even blind men would be dazzled by her!
A vein in Jasper’s temple was throbbing. He leaned against the wall, hands slowly curling into fists. “First the Lynch family, then
the Schmidts ...What the hell is this woman up to?”
He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.”Get me some Tylenol.”
As the clock struck three in the morning, a dark emerald Rolls Royce pulled up to a rundown cement structure located at the
terminus of a dirt road.
KS Group had acquired all the properties in this rural area years ago, anticipating a surge in property value with the
government’s plans to construct a railway system in the vicinity.
There was a cellar underneath the
building where no one would hear you if you screamed with all your might. Now that Jonah knew what they were up to, he
naturally joined them, not wanting his sister to face this alone.
“Mr. Jonah, Ms. Alyssa,”the guardsgreeted.
“How’s our guy?” Alyss a yawned.
“Still alive.” 1
Alyssa was intrigued by the attacker’s determination to live. She then nodded, pleased, before going downstairs with her brother.
A strong, moldy smell washed over them the moment they arrived downstairs. A rat even dashed between Alyssa’s feet. She
remained unperturbed, having seen too much during her time as a doctor.
Curtis Halloway bore a bruised, swollen face while strung up by his feet in the middle of the cellar. His face had flushed red and
purple from how long he had been
suspended like this.
The moment he saw Alyssa and Jonah, he curled up like a frightened caterpillar, begging, “I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have hurt
you, miss. Please have mercy. I’ll do anything!”
Alyss a scoffed. He had appeared so tough earlier, but his demeanor had taken a 360-degree turn in a matter of three days.
Jonah’s expression grew fierce. He was about to take a step closer when Alyssa held him back. “You promised to let me handle
this alone, Jonah.”
“Fine.”Jonah wrinkled his nose, thenstepped back.
Alyssa approached Curtis with her arms crossed in front of her chest. She then nudged his shoulder with her foot. The swaying
motion nearly made him puke.
“Please, Ms. Taylor...I didn’t know. Iwouldn’t have come at you if I did. I would never have listened to that evil bitch,
Liana, if I’d known...”
Curtis began to cry, tears and snot. running down his swollen face into his hair.”Please let me redeem myself. I can do anything
you ask. You can even report me to the police!”
“I have some questions for you. Answerthem truthfully if you want to live.”
“Of course!Without a doubt!”
Alyss a narrowed her eyes. “You and Liana fucked while you were in Mosgravia. Do you know how many children she has given
birth to?”
