"Hmph! You're still so young, Josh. You can ask your father how I fought my way to where I am today if
you're unsure." Winston's eyes gleamed ferociously. "Ask around and see just how terrible you'll suffer
if you antagonize me!"
Josh's heart quivered fearfully, but he still put on a tough, fearless act.
"I say this to all of you now, not as Cyrus Taylor of the Taylor family, but as the police—" Cyrus then
displayed an arrest warrant for the Schmidt family to see.
He continued, "The police have officially arrested David Schmidt under the charge of sexual assault.
We have ample evidence and witnesses to support our case, too. You Schmidts can prepare
yourselves to attend David's trial."
Cyrus then smirked. "Or, should I say, criminal suspect David Schmidt's trial."
Despair overwhelmed Victor and Josh.
This was an official warrant from the police. They had no choice but to concede to the matter now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJosh tried fighting back but was swiftly stopped by Victor, who said quietly, "What more can we say
now? We need to go back and figure out how to save David!"
Just before Victor and Josh were about to step out of the Taylor residence door, Winston roared at
them, "Our families' alliance marriage ends today! Don't even think about bringing it up again! I'm going
to look thoroughly into what your son did to my daughter!"
Victor ground his teeth together before snapping at Jameson, "Let's go, Jameson!"
Jameson didn't want to leave just yet, but he knew the Taylor family would only hate him more if he
stayed. He gazed longingly at Alyssa before leaving the house.
Alyssa's stomach churned. That look made her deeply uncomfortable.
She then sighed quietly in relief because things had turned out in her favor. This alliance marriage with
the Schmidts had ended for good.
The atmosphere in the Schmidt family's Bentley on its way home was unbearably suffocating.
Josh gave Victor two pills to reduce his blood pressure, but his blood pressure wouldn't fall no matter
what.
"David really messed up big time! What's so good about that Taty chick? He could've gotten all the
women he wanted, yet he ended up going for her. He basically doomed himself!"
"Yeah. He's not the one arranged to be married. Why did he have to do this?"
Jameson was incredibly angry. "David's already incompetent, yet he still wanted to fool around? What a
waste of a sex offender." "Shut up! How could you talk about your own brother like that? And what were
you doing at the Taylor family residence tonight?" Victor snapped angrily.
"Why else? Jameson obviously went to kiss their asses," Josh sneered, taking advantage of the
situation to insult Jameson. "Our dear little Jameson is trying so hard to become a son-in-law to the
Taylor family.
"Have you ever shown that much respect to our own father, Jameson? I doubt you care even half as
much about Dad as you do about Winston Taylor."
"I only agreed to the arranged marriage for our family!" Jameson snapped back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Enough!" Victor slammed his hand down on the armrest. "You are not to be in contact with Alyssa
Taylor from now on, Jameson! Don't go suck up to the Taylor family and embarrass me!"
"What does David's mistake have to do with me? Why can't I contact Lyse?" Jameson was incredibly
stubborn. "If I can marry Lyse, our families would still be allied. You would still be able to utilize the
Taylor family's resources. What's wrong with that?"
"Hahaha! You're out of your mind, Jameson. You seriously think you can still be together with Alyssa
now that things have come to this?" Josh cackled. "Even if Winston rejects Jasper-heck, even if Jasper
dies, Alyssa still won't set her sights on you."
"Just because you can't pull it off doesn't mean I can't." Jameson pushed his glasses off, his gaze
growing murderous.
"That's enough! David is more important right now, not this!" Victor exclaimed.
He grabbed Josh's arm and gritted out, "David may have been charged with sexual assault, but since
nothing happened between him and that girl, his charge will only be attempted assault. We need to get
him out of prison no matter what!"
