Everyone was shocked.
Victor and Josh were stunned to their cores, their mouths so wide it nearly touched the floor.
"Lyse, how could you..." Jonah gazed worriedly at his sister, feeling troubled.
As Alyssa's big brother, he was responsible for dealing with any gunfire shot their way and protecting
his siblings.
Jonah wanted to handle this alone, but who knew his sister would make an appearance and provoke
the Schmidt family? She had drawn enemy fire to herself now.
"Get it up? What do you mean, Alyssa Taylor?" Josh's elegant demeanor was nearly at its breaking
point. He glared menacingly at Alyssa and said, "And... What did you say you did? You beat up David?
You dared beat up my own brother? How dare you!"
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Alyssa's eyes narrowed as she grinned. "If David was daring enough to take
advantage of Taty, then I'm equally daring enough to teach him a lesson!
"Killing him would've been too easy. Scum like David deserves to suffer in prison with other scums like
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim. Hmph, a cripple like him is bound to be tortured and pushed around behind bars. That's the
consequence I want him to suffer from!"
The hearts of everyone from the Taylor family pounded heavily in their chests. Lyla's vision swam as
her knees began trembling.
"Taty... Taty!" She clutched her sweaty forehead with one hand and her shirt with the other. It was
nearly impossible for her to breathe now.
"Lyla!"
"Lyla!" Winston immediately held Lyla in her arms, his own heart nearly bursting forth from his ribcage.
"Don't be afraid or panic. I'm right here!"
"Winston... I'm so scared... I'm so scared something might've happened to Taty..." Lyla's tears finally fell
from her eyes, unable to be contained any longer.
"Lyse! How... How could you say such a thing?" It was clear Victor had no clue what had really
happened. He was still angrily defending his son, David. "David is a good man, and I'm good friends
with your father. How could he possibly do that to Ms. Tatiana?"
"A good man? Are you kidding me right now, Mr. Victor?" Alyssa sneered.
Her cold gaze swept across every single one of the Schmidt family members before stopping on
Jameson's. "None of your children are good people whatsoever! Your boys are all despicable, while
your daughter is vile and stupid.
"You've been friends with Winston for so long, yet not only did your family business not improve
whatsoever, but you even failed to raise your children! It truly is a great pity!"
Victor and Josh's faces turned brick red with anger. "You!"
Jameson felt like his breathing was stifled. His hands curled into fists, nails digging into his palms.
The woman he loved the most was ridiculing and insulting him.
This painful, soul-aching feeling was worse than Alyssa slapping him in the face!
"Lyse, Jonah, you two said that... David..." Winston, who was usually a decisive and merciless power
player in the business world, now dared not ask his question directly.

Winston wasn't afraid of anything save that, if he knew the truth, he might have an even greater
reaction than Lyla did!
Jonah walked over to his father and Lyla. He took a deep breath before saying, "David drugged Taty
during the dinner and brought her upstairs to force himself on her."
"What?" All the blood rushed to Winston's head. Rage consumed him in a split second.
"Luckily, we found out just in time and saved Taty."
Jonah helped his father steady himself and said in the calmest tone he could muster, "Otherwise... I
can't bear to imagine what would've happened. But Taty was still deeply traumatized by the matter. We
can only hope she slowly recovers from it."
"So David... failed?" Winston stammered.
Alyssa nodded solemnly. "Yes. Good thing that scumbag David was already sexually incompetent, so
he couldn't really do anything to Taty."
Her original plan was to tell Winston that Jasper helped save Taty in order to gain some favor for
Jasper. But since the timing wasn't right, she could only opt to tell Winston later.
