Alyssa's and Jasper's expressions turned solemn after listening.

"If not, it could be that he cleans up the scene thoroughly every the commits a crime, leaving no trace behind. But that doesn't quite fit the modus operandi of an outlaw or top-tier assassin." Cyrus traced his jawline with his finger as he calmly analyzed the situation. "So, I'm inclined to believe he's a hired assassin from abroad." "If that's the case, it'll be even more difficult to investigate him. Once this job is done, he'll disappear immediately. He'd probably use a false identity to flee the country." Jasper's gaze darkened gradually.

"Didn't Ms. Angelina see his face? She can cto our station tomorrow and describe his face based on her memory. | can arrange for a top-notch profiler from our city to cand draw a portrait of that assassin." Cyrus' eyes flashed with determination. "Having a sketch might provide more clues. We can't delay too long.

People's memories fade, and the likeness of the portrait can becdistorted. The most accurate portrait will be drawn while the memory is fresh." Alyssa and Jasper exchanged looks. Just as they were about to speak, a sweet and composed voice spoke from behind.

"I remember his face." Cyrus swiftly lifted his gaze.

Seeing Lauren descend the stairs gracefully, he felt his heart throb in his chest. He hurriedly stood up from the couch.

The hot blood that once flowed calmly through his veins now seemed to stir restlessly.

Jasper suddenly remembered. "Right, Lauren had contact with that man too." Pressing her lips together, Alyssa walked over to Lauren and gently wrapped her arm around her shoulder.

"Lauren, we'll contact Angelina tomorrow and have her assist with this. You don't need to do anything or think about it. The most important thing is to focus on getting well." She knew that although Lauren seemed fine on the outside, her soul was suffering from the trauma of her episodes and the torment of her breakup with Landon.

Alyssa wished she could find the tto arrange modified electroconvulsive therapy for Lauren, hoping it would help her completely forget that painful day.

She couldn't bear to see Lauren forced to relive that trauma, especially during such a critical time, which would only compound her suffering.

"Lauren, don't force yourself," Cyrus said as he looked at her deeply. His voice was slightly hoarse. "Your health and well-being are more important than anything else." "Alyssa, Cyrus, it's okay." Lauren gently shook her head, and her eyes showed determination.

"I'm fine now. | just want to help you all as much as | can. And | also want to catch that person to uncover the terrifying conspiracy behind it. | want to know who is manipulating the Harpers, using me, and hurting Landon." Alyssa's and Jasper's hearts clenched with a bitter ache.

In the past few days, they hadn't told her much. Yet Lauren, clever as she was, had pieced together the sequence of events from their scattered words.

Staring into Lauren's reddened eyes, he sensed her deep affection when she mentioned Landon.

She loved him deeply, and he could see that. She loved him so deeply that there was no room for another person in her heart.

Jasper looked surprised. "Lauren, you still love—" "| just want to do something more for him." Lauren interrupted him immediately with a smile.

He Whs only worried about whether she could handle it. Alyssa lowered her gaze to hide her red-rimmed eyes.

Sensing her emotional fluctuations, Jasper took her hand and pressed it against his chest, silently comforting her.

At this moment, Cyrus approached Lauren. His tall and robust figure EN pet Ydrded strength ahd'dut ority, yet his gaze toward her was filled with gentleness.
