But Alyssa was the love of his life. How could Jameson bear to destroy her?

"Have you thought about what your next move is?" A subtle threat was woven into the man's languid

voice.

"Sir, give me one last chance!" Jameson's face was as pale as a ghost.

A sinister vibe emanated from Jameson like a demon struggling to escape hell. "Isn't your research

center working on a drug that can induce heart paralysis? Could you provide me with one of those?"

"Hmm? What do you plan to do with that?" The man laughed mockingly. "Don't tell me you plan to use

one of those on yourself.

"Mr. Schmidt, you are overestimating yourself. Haven't you stuck enough needles over the years? The

drug hasn't passed its clinical trials yet. The risk is huge."

"I know. But this is my only shot. I want to bet everything on it." Jameson's eyes were bloodshot. He

was no longer thinking straight.

The man sighed, "You still have so many years ahead of you and many other opportunities. Everything

you do now is merely for a woman. You don't need to handle it with such high stakes."

The man was serious. "Plus, you are Alyssa's most hated person now. Wouldn't it go in her favor if

something happens to you?"

"It's not for me."

"Oh?"

"Pity and guilt are the most difficult for one to overcome."

A shadow crossed Jameson's eyes. "Lyse is a kind woman. I want her to feel indebted for the rest of

her life. That way, I can keep her by my side."

After the conversation, Alyssa and Jasper returned to their rooms to rest.

Landon knew Lauren was asleep, so he walked toward the study, ready to tackle a wave of work before

resting. He was a completely different person.

In the past, even if the earth were to disintegrate, it wouldn't have deterred him from sleeping. Now, he

found it impossible to sleep without addressing work matters. All his efforts were geared toward

securing a good future for Lauren.

"Mr. Landon."

Angelina's voice came from behind him. Landon quickly turned. "Aren't you turning in to rest? I told you

not to bother me and keep an eye on Madam Lauren. If she wakes up feeling thirsty, no one will be

there to attend to her."

Angelina pursed her lips and said softly, "I have something to report from tonight. I think you should

keep an eye on Mr. Cyrus. When he came today, he interacted with Madam Lauren when I wasn't

paying attention. I can't say he likes her, but I sense that he fancies Mandam Lauren."

She didn't tell him about how Lauren mistook Cyrus for him and went to hug him. She feared he would

visit Cyrus with a knife in his hand should he learn about that.

While she may have skirted around the main point, the information acted like a spark. Landon went

ballistic and charged toward the bedroom with reddened eyes.

"Hey, Mr. Landon!" Angelina frantically grabbed him. "Madam Lauren is asleep. You would wake her if

you go to her now! Besides, Madam Lauren only has eyes for you. She doesn't like Mr. Cyrus in any

way. Please don't be angry at her."

Landon looked at her anxious face. He was frustrated, yet he couldn't help but frown and smile wryly.

"What are you thinking, Angelina? Do you take me for someone this petty?"

The look on Angelina's face confirmed that was how she felt.

"No one knows how much I love Lauren. You know it fair well. Plus, I trust Lauren. I will always trust her

unconditionally."

Landon took a deep breath, his gaze softening as he contemplated Lauren. "I haven't seen her the

entire day. I just miss her a lot. I'm only going to kiss her. Nothing else."
