That night, inside the villa, two sweet couples sat in the living room. Their attention was directed at the
news channel playing on the TV.
After a few minutes, the news began. It was a highly anticipated program of the day—Daisy's arrest.
The news report replayed the comical scene of Daisy being arrested by the police. It was still hilarious,
even upon a second viewing.
"Hmm? That hot officer looks familiar. I think I've seen him somewhere." Lauren poked her finger at her
chin.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Oh, I remember! He sat next to me at Madam Lyla's birthday party. He even
chatted with me—"
Before she could finish her sentence, Landon's eyes darkened. He couldn't help but grab her chin and
land a domineering and passionate kiss on her soft lips. It was a fierce and jealous kiss.
Meanwhile, Alyssa and Jasper were absorbed in watching the news. When they heard the amorous

Suddenly, Jasper moved his body, covering the explicit scene. Then he lowered his head to give Alyssa
a deep kiss.
"Why? It's R-rated, so you won't let me see?"
Alyssa pursed her lips adorably. "I've seen all kinds of things in my life. It's just a kiss."
"No... I'm scared you'll feel awkward." Jasper pinched her nose and smiled helplessly.
"Hmph, what's considered awkward differs for each individual."
Still jealous, Landon left Lauren's lips.
Lauren's eyes became watery as the events unfolded, and his kiss left her breath in disarray.
"Darling, are you trying to provoke me by mentioning other men in front of me?"
Landon repeatedly rubbed his fingers on her moist lips. His voice was husky as he said, "Hot guy? Is
he hotter than me, huh?"
"Um... You're both hot." Lauren was blushing.
"What? Who's hot?" Landon tickled her sensitive spot.
"Hahaha... You're hot. You're the hottest!" Lauren clung to him, laughing non-stop.
Alyssa crossed her arms and rested her head on Jasper's shoulder. As she glanced at Landon, she
said, "If it weren't because beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it's tough to say which one of you is
hot."
Landon's heartbeat pounded at her words.
Anyone could see that Alyssa favored Lauren a lot. If he hadn't taken the initiative, Alyssa might have
played matchmaker for Lauren and one of her brothers, making Lauren a Mrs. Taylor.
At this thought, he grabbed Lauren's hand as if someone were going to compete with him.
The news then mentioned that Victor had been rushed to the hospital overnight, but the specific reason
was unknown.
What else could it be except that he was enraged?

As the president of Schmidt Group, Josh was standing at the hospital entrance, facing the media's
relentless bombardment. His expression remained stiff, and he was visibly upset. It was as if he had
lost his father.
Indeed, even if he was mentally tough, he was probably under tremendous pressure now, dealing with
both internal and external troubles.
"This is awesome! Isn't this more exciting than any show?" Landon embraced Lauren's shoulder with
his sturdy left arm and delightedly slapped his thigh with the other.
Lauren leaned into his embrace, licking the strawberry-flavored popsicle. After a few licks, she fed it to
his lips.
Landon lowered his head and took a bite where she had licked. As he caressed her head, he looked at
her affectionately.
"Daisy and her husband are both in jail now—one for forcing women into prostitution, the other for
playing threesome. They seem to be a great match. It's true that birds of a feather flock together."
Alyssa stared coldly at Josh's pale face on the screen. "The Schmidt family's father and son are
overwhelmed now. It won't be long before the prosecution summons them."
