"I was aware. I knew it from the beginning. But what choice did I have?" Gina trembled violently as she

grew hysterical. "I'd rather sweep everything under the rug than open up my daughter's wound and put

her in harm's way.

"She's just managed to get a footing, and things were looking up, but you came along and messed it all

up! She nearly lost her life because of you—you arrogant, wealthy pricks who judge us from the

comforts of life. What gives you the right?"

Alyssa felt a stinging pain in her chest. With her usual sharp wit, she could have retorted. However, the

weight of guilt left her speechless.

"You're being naive." Jasper, keeping his composure, placed his hand on Alyssa's waist. He appeared

as omniscient as divinity. "You're currently enjoying a short-lived peace because the Schmidt Group is

in hot water. The Schmidts are too preoccupied to pay attention to you, especially with David Schmidt

still in detention."

Gina's expression froze. Her bloodshot eyes looked vacant.

"Once they resolve David's legal issues and release him, they'll go back to wreaking havoc. Do you

think David, that petty bastard, would go easy on Maggie? We need to get rid of him once and for all, or

Maggie will be in endless trouble."

"Mr. Beckett, everything you said is right. Gina, it's time to wake up!" Colton carried himself with

determination even though he was choking on tears. He cast a helpless look at Alyssa and Jasper.

"We didn't mean to reject your help. The Schmidts cornered us, threatening us to keep quiet or they'd

make us vanish from Solana City. We couldn't go against them."

Lorna chimed in, "Before we could determine if you were helpful, we chose to lay low and avoid contact

with you. But lately, my daughter's been having mental breakdowns. Two days ago, she locked herself

in her room and attempted to cut her wrist."

The revelation made Alyssa's blood boil. A fresh swell of rage rose in her.

"What?" Gina was stunned.

"My Anora is just 16 years old this year. She's younger than Maggie and not as mentally strong..."

Lorna cried her heart out. "That bastard should've been run over by a car or struck by lightning! Why

did he have to put Anora through this suffering? What had she done to deserve that?"

Colton hissed, "We tried to swallow the humiliation, but what good is doing so when my daughter will

never be the same? She's physically and mentally crushed, all because of that beast!

"If so, what's the point of backing down? My daughter might be alive, but she's as good as dead."

"Sir, ma'am, how is she doing? Is she out of critical condition now?" Alyssa, fighting back tears, was

concerned about Anora Tanner's condition. "If she's still hospitalized, I can arrange to transfer her to a

hospital under the KS Group. We'll take care of all her expenses."

"Ms. Alyssa..." The Tanner couple were moved by her kindness.

"By the way, when your daughter's back to full health, I'll hire the best psychologist for her. I believe that

she'll heal from the trauma one day."

"Thank you! Thank you, Ms. Alyssa! You're a godsend!"

Gina was taken aback by Alyssa's generosity. At first, she had expected Alyssa to humiliate the

Tanners to make up for their harsh rejections earlier. To her surprise, Alyssa earnestly offered help

regardless of past grievances.

She couldn't help but wonder if she had misjudged Alyssa.

"Mrs. Madison." Approaching Gina, Alyssa gently held her calloused hands and tightened her grip. "I'm

not a mother, but I feel you because I detest David Schmidt just as much.

"Remember, my sister is a victim too. I admit that my actions stem from personal grudges. What I want

is to work with all the victims to demand justice from the Schmidts. Can you. help me out?"
