"Oh, my God! Who did this? This is amazing!"

"Gathering so much evidence and revealing it at such a crucial moment? This is aimed at destroying

Timothy!"

"Could it be Mr. Hodgson? After all, they're rivals in this election."

"That's possible. But does the Hodgson family have such means? The mastermind behind this must be

someone stronger."

Flashlights were flickering. All cameras captured the shocked Timothy, who was trembling

uncontrollably on the stage.

Some reporters were no longer satisfied with just taking photos. They rushed toward the podium,

aiming their microphones and cameras at him.

"Mr. Clemons, are the pictures real?"

"Did you take bribes? Are you involved in illicit transactions?"

Timothy's lips trembled uncontrollably, and he staggered backward. "It's not me! Someone

photoshopped it. Someone is trying to set me up!"

"What about the ledger? How do you explain that?"

"It's fake! It's all fabricated! I never took that money! Never!"

Timothy was drenched in sweat as he shouted in panic, "Where's the security? Come and maintain

order!"

Seeing the chaotic scene where Timothy was besieged by the media and had his dirt exposed one

after another, Victor turned furious. His face darkened at once.

"Find out what's going on!"

Victor's eyes were red, and he was struggling to breathe. "This person is targeting Timothy, but it's

actually an attack on our family. Who has the audacity to target us?"

"Yes, Dad. I'll go find out now."

Josh realized that the situation was out of control, so he urgently said, "I'll send someone to escort you

out of here amid the chaos. Timothy is your son-in-law, after all. If something happens to him, it might

affect you."

"No!" Victor adamantly refused. "If we leave now, won't it be admitting that these scandals are true? It'll

make people think that Schmidt Group can't handle a joke. We'll become a laughing stock."

Just then, Josh's phone vibrated.

Sternly, he answered the phone. Daisy's urgent voice came through. "Josh, come out for a moment. I'll

be waiting for you in the corridor."

When Josh arrived, he saw a pale Daisy anxiously pacing.

"Daisy, what's going on?"

"Josh, you have to save Tim."

Daisy grabbed Josh's arm with her eyes full of panic. "If today's events get out... Tim's career will be

completely ruined."

Josh gritted his teeth angrily. "It's a big event today. With so many officials and media present, do you

think you can keep it a secret? The whole city already knows!"

Shocked, Daisy staggered back. Her heartbeat seemed to stop at this moment.

"Are those ledgers and photos real?" Josh sternly questioned her after a deep breath.

Regretfully, Daisy closed her eyes and nodded.

"You waste! You can't even control your matrilocal husband, and you still call yourself a daughter of the

Schmidt family?

"You've been supporting him with our family's money, and this is what we get? An ungrateful punk?"

Josh was furious, feeling more annoyed the more he looked at his useless sister.

"What's the use of saying this now? You're scolding me now that things have gone south. Why didn't

you talk about the benefits you gained from Tim?

"Do you think I supported him to become mayor to benefit myself? If he becomes mayor, it'll benefit

Schmidt Group!" Daisy cried hysterically, on the verge of a breakdown.

"Enough! Keep your voice down. Do you want everyone to hear?" Josh glared at her, overwhelming her

with his oppressive presence.

Indeed, Daisy dared not cry anymore. Trembling, she begged, "Josh... you must save Tim. Even if it's

for the reputation of Schmidt Group... you have to save him."

"I know."

Josh took a deep breath, and his eyes turned dark. "Once this matter gets out, officials will come to

investigate Timothy. I'll send people to seal off the scene and try to get you a chance to leave."
