Only by appealing to his interests could Nicholas possibly be moved.

Alyssa stepped closer to Nicholas and slipped the report into his pocket before walking away without looking back.

In the chilly wind, Nicholas trembled as he retrieved the paper. After reading it, he tore it up slowly and let the shreds scatter in the wind.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated. Nicholas pressed it to his ear. "Yes, Carl."

"Chief Novak, Mr. Schmidt asks you to act tonight."

Nicholas took a deep breath. His gaze was dark. "Okay."

At 7:00 pm, Marc, accompanied by Colene and Matilda, arrived at KS World Hotel and held the press conference as scheduled despite his deteriorating health.

He disclosed all the recent events of the Ivory members being manipulated by drugs and urged everyone to stay away from such dangerous substances, warning of the risks to life.

"I'll fully cooperate with the police investigation. And I support the police in thoroughly searching all Ivory members for any hidden drugs and punishing them severely! As the chairman of Ivory Group, I bear full responsibility and am ready to face all legal consequences!"

With that, Marc, supported by Matilda, stood up tremblingly and bowed deeply in front of the cameras.

The flashlights lit up the room like daylight. Both those present and viewers online were deeply moved by his actions.

After the press conference, public opinion surged to its peak.

The entire internet was denouncing the mastermind behind this human experimentation and petitioning for a thorough investigation. It was a time when turning a blind eye was not an option for truth's sake. While the storm raged outside, Aidan was indulging himself in the debauchery arranged by Jameson. Using alcohol and women to numb his senses, he enjoyed the revelry before doomsday.

In the presidential suite, Aidan drank one glass after another, fed to him by the women around him. He became more and more intoxicated until he lost consciousness.

Under the urging of someone, he found himself on top of a woman and injecting drugs into her veins with a syringe.

What happened next was a blur to him.

In the early morning hours, he awoke to a splitting headache. He found himself lying naked in bed with an unclothed woman beside him.

At first, he didn't think much of it. Over the years, while accompanying Joseph to socialize and discuss business, he had grown accustomed to women being sent to his bed in attempts to please him. He never declined. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Aidan kicked the woman while rubbing his throbbing temples. "Hey... Wake up. Go back if you want to sleep."

But the woman didn't move.

Frowning, Aidan reached out to shake her awake.

As soon as he touched her skin, his expression froze. The woman's body was cold to the touch.

Aidan immediately turned on the bedside lamp to check on her.

Although he had long since given up practicing medicine for business, coming from a family with a medical background, he still had some knowledge.

Two minutes later, he suddenly screamed. Forgetting about his own nakedness, he leaped out of bed and curled up in the corner.

The woman on the bed had purple spots on her body, which were signs of hypostasis.

She was dead!
