An hour ago, Zoe called Cornelius’ confidant, Max Horatio, to al secluded ce, and the two secretly
conspired.
“Mr. Horatio, you’ve been with our family for a long time. I’ve known you since I was a child when you
worked for my grandpa. I know your loyalty to our family,” Zoe said, her eyes filled with tears and
appearing pitiful.
“Yes, Ms. Zoe. I’ve watched you grow up. Your family has been kind to me. I’m willing to do anything for
you.” Max pledged solemnly, then worriedly asked, “Ms. Zoe, is there… something wrong? You look -
terrible.”
So, Zoe fabricated a story, turning the truth upside down. She portrayed herself as the victim of
Alyssa’s bullying.
“Not only that… she even wants to steal my fiancé.”
Zoe started to sob. “Jasper and I have a deep affection for each other, and we were about to get
engaged… But Alyssa stole my fiancé from me.
“If I can’t get engaged to Jasper, I’ll be theughingstock of the entire Sna City. How can I face
people in the future? I might as well die!”
“Don’t, please don’t! You’re the apple of Mr. Cornelius’ eyes and Mr. Bill’s only daughter. It’s not worth
hurting yourself for that Alyssa.”
Max, who had no children of his own, regarded Bill and Zoe as his own. Of course, he was furious. “Ms.
Zoe, that Alyssa is too wicked. How dare she take away your man? She’s really asking for death.”
“Mr. Horatio, do you have any way… to humble her? Can you make her unable to snatch Jasper from
me?” Zoe cried, but her eyes were shining with a sinister glint.
She knew Max was smart and had a dark side. He would surely understand the meaning behind her
words.
But she couldn’t say the conspiracies out loud. Otherwise, it would be giving someone a hold over her.
She never trusted anyone.
Max paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, then. suddenly said, “If you want Alyssa to
lose the race, we’ll have to tamper with her horse.”
“How do you n to do it?”
“When horses are running, their explosive power is terrifying.
Moreover, they’ll keep running forward under the rider’smand, even if their legs are injured-until
they copse.
“So, I n to give her horse a bit of a ‘boost.’ If Alyssa is unlucky, she might fall off her horse during the
race. Even if she’s lucky and reaches the finish line, her horse will be ruined.”
The race quickly entered the thirdp, the final round.
The overall result was almost settled at this point, with Taylor Group, Beckett Group, and Harper Group
competing for the top three.
Tornado from the Schmidt Group had already fallen far behind, sadly missing the top three.
“Damn it! This horse is too disappointing!”
Seeing that he had no chance of working with Jesselton Incorporated, Victor was furious. “I’ve been
providing for you so well, and you’re not giving me anything in return! Why is your name even Tornado?

Everyone held back theirughter.
“But Uncle Winston’s ze is really amazing.”
Jameson took this opportunity to praise Winston, trying to improve rtions between the two families.
“Lyse said that Tornado and ze are about the same, but they’re clearly notparable. Dad, you
should consult Uncle Winston more.
on how to choose racehorses. Try to catch up next time.”
These sounded like words from a double-crosser.
But Victor wasn’t angry. Instead, he thought Jameson’s double- crossing was just in time.
Winston smiled at Jameson.
“Jameson, your dad has never admitted defeat to me in his whole life. It would be strange if he came to
me for advice. ze’s aptitude is one thing. Lyse’s excellent jockey skills are also crucial.”
“Indeed, Lyse is truly the most perfect girl in my heart.” Jameson’s scorching gaze followed Alyssa’s
captivating figure on the racetrack, expressing his feelings without reservation.
“Fuck, he and his bitchy mouth! I want to punch him so bad!”
Seeing Jameson being overly attentive to Winston, Landon clenched his fists, making cracking sounds.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“Hey, you can’t just stand there like this. If you keep going, your wife will be snatched by someone else!
You better quickly go up and earn some points. Sweet talk for a bit.”
“I’m not good at that,” Jasper replied absentmindedly as he watched Alyssa on the racetrack.
