With a loud bang, Alyssa barged into the room.
Anger had made her face flushed while her hands were clenched into fists.
Both Winston and Neil were shocked.
Winston then grumbled, "Don't you know proper manners, Lyse? Or did you forget how to knock?"
"I've never knocked since I knew how to walk here in Heightsnew Villa! Oho! Are you bringing up civility
and manners now? Feeling guilty, are we?"
Alyssa was so angry that she was trembling. "Do you think you're some sort of a warlord, Winston?
Having so many wives is one thing, yet now you're trying to use your own daughter to appease the
Schmidt family?
"What a wonderful father you are! I thought you were just a flirt, but it looks like you're also a
coldblooded, selfish man! I truly held my hopes too high!"
Winston was furious. He wasn't as tolerating as before, though. He coldly said, "What would you know?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThese are ad hoc strategies."
"Selling your daughter out, separating a pair of sincere lovers, and ruining Taty's happiness for life is
your idea of ad hoc strategy?" Alyssa sneered.
She had never been as angry as she was right now, considering all the outrageous things Winston had
done in the past.
"You're still young. You have no idea how difficult it is to have all the power in your grasp. How could
you possibly satisfy the tens of thousands of staff in KS Group alone? I endured all sorts of pain and
made painful sacrifices when I came into power just to get the family to where it is today!" Winston
snapped.
"So you're saying you want me to advance our family at the cost of everything else?" Alyssa glared at
her father. "Who else do you want to sell off after Taty? You must be so angry that Miley got married
early and that you don't have any more daughters to sell off!"
"Alyssa!" Winston stood up, angrily glaring at his most beloved daughter.
The father and daughter were locked in a tense confrontation.
Neil panicked. The last thing he wanted to see was Alyssa fighting with Winston.
"What else can we do? Do you want to have the other three families antagonize us? Do you really think
you can handle such powerful antagonists?" Winston asked.
"How do you know I can't? We haven't even started yet! What are you looking down on me for?" Alyssa
exclaimed.
She grew furious by the second. "Jameson Schmidt is a devious, cold-blooded hypocrite! He
antagonized Miley and Jeremy countless times in Kontina. He even tried killing Jasper and Jonah!
"Did he drug you or something? You're eating right out of his hands! Now, you even want to send your
own daughter into the wolves' den. Did you really pave your way to success all these years, or did you
take a fucking shortcut?"
Winston's eyes widened. Beside him, Neil's expression grew into one of sheer shock.
Winston quickly scoffed. He scrutinized his daughter, saying, "Don't you have even an ounce of guilt to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshow for making up lies, Alyssa?"
"Oh my fucking God. Are you seriously taking all that I said as lies?" Alyssa was so angry she might as
well have high blood pressure now. "Did Jameson cast a spell on you, old man?"
"This is no small accusation, Ms. Alyssa. Do you have any evidence?" Neil was in disbelief. "Mr.
Jameson has known you since you two were children. Mr. Winston and I can see his sincerity toward
you. How could he have done such a thing?
"I can understand if he tried to harm Mr. Jasper, given the latter is a rival in love. But why would he try
to harm Mr. Jonah? It makes no sense for Mr. Jameson to do that."
"Neil is right. Do you have evidence?" Winston knew how cunning Alyssa could be. She'd do anything
to prevent Tatiana from marrying into the Schmidt family.
"I will get the evidence. I just need time!" Alyssa gritted out.
Of course, she would get the evidence needed to end Jameson once and for all. But that man was too
cunning. They couldn't take action against him even as his tricks and schemes were laid bare for all to
see.
