"Bitch!" Josh cussed internally. But because of his vanity, he couldn't argue with Colene outright. It'd be a literal cockfight.
Victor's blood pressure was rising furiously. He didn't understand how one dinner could land his son in the police station as a
criminal suspect!
Lyla's heart filled with anxiety. Sweat began beading on her forehead.
Rape ... Who did David rape? Was it...
Lyla recalled how Tatiana had shut herself up in her room. She had claimed she wasn't feeling well. Lyla hadn't been able to get
her to come out of her room, no matter how much she knocked on the door. As a mother, her nerves were strung tight. Her
breathing grew panicked as fear lanced through her chest.
"Mr. Schmidt, Mr. Josh, I understand that you're worried about your son, Mandy said, dragging Colene back behind her.
Her gaze was calm when she continued, "But even if it was Jonah who sent Mr. David to the police station, that must mean Mr.
David had done something wrong. Instead of trying to discuss it with US, it'd be better if you hire a good lawyer for Mr. David."
"You're right, Mandy," Silas agreed coldly. "You could try hiring Simon Lynch from the Lynch family. Someone as rotten and
greedy as him is perfect for handling Mr. David's case. But Simon's currently kissing Madam Sophia's ass, so he might not even
be able to book you in."
The Schmidt father and son were enraged!
Each of the Taylor family members had a tongue sharper than the last. They were like an impenetrable wall when united, unable
to be retaliated with.
Jameson's pale, icy expression was shrouded in gloom.
If things worsened, his original plan might be disrupted.
But at this point, Jameson couldn't jump to anybody's defense. He could only pretend to be invisible right now. otherwise, things
would not turn out in his favor.
"Regardless, David would never do something like this! There must be some scheme going on!" Victor said to Winston while
glaring at Jonah. "Jonah must personally get David out from the station tonight and call off the charge, Mr. Taylor! Or else ... our
family will go head to head with yours ... to the end!"
Winston's brows furrowed. He gazed darkly at Jonah. "What happened with David, Jonah? I need you to give me an
explanation!"
"You want Jonah to release that bastard and for US to revoke our charges? Hmph! You can dream. We'd never do that!"
Everyone raised their heads.
A regal, beautiful figure slowly walked down the circular stairs, bringing with her a powerful air.
Alyssa walked forward with Liam following behind, like a knight protecting his queen.
Liam's gaze was calm yet sharp. It exuded a terrible sense of overbearingness. Only when he looked at his sister did warmth
and tenderness appear in his eyes.
Jameson knew Liam was Alyssa's third brother, someone with a military background and the power to gather hundreds to his
aid.
Jameson was still envious! Lyse could have any man by her side, yet she wouldn't choose Jameson himself!
What did he have to do to stand by her side? Did he have to go on a killing spree and end the life of every single man in his
way?
"What are you doing out here, Lyse?" Winston was shocked. He then looked at Liam.
Given how much he doted on her, Liam must've let Alyssa out!
"Mr. Schmidt, Mr. Josh, did David only tell you that it was Jonah who locked him in and nothing more?" Alyssa walked down the
last step.
She smiled in a beautiful yet bone-chilling way. "Not only did I lock him up, I even shattered his tailbone, broke his fingers, and
busted his teeth. I wanted to castrate him at first, but then I realized that wasn't necessary. He won't be able to get it up for the
rest of his life even if I did castrate him."
