After Alyssa finished the chocolate, she put the
remaining bar back in Sean's breast pocket and patted his chest. She said, “You're pretty in shape.” Sean's heart thumped wildly, and he blushed. He was four years older than
her. He had visited the Taylor residence often when he was a kid. His
father had been the head of KS Group's legal department and was valued by Winston very much. Sean remembered that the first time he
saw Alyssa was in the back garden of Heightsnew Villa. He had spotted the pretty
little girl from far off, and she had raced toward him adorably.
He had thought that he was dreaming, so he rubbed his eyes. She appeared before him wearing a w any candy?” Alyssa hopped off her skateboard. She gave it a kick and caught it in her hand.
"Huh?" Sean was flustered and cursed at himself for having feelings for a girl younger than him. How too beautiful. Who wouldn't be mesmerized?
“It's fine if you don’t ...” Alyssa sighed in disappointment and put down her skateboard.
Just as she was about to leave, Sean grabbed her arm. It was so thin that he could clamp his whole h said, “Does this count?”
"Wow! Thank you!" Alyssa smiled brightly and took the chocolate. She ripped
off the wrapper at once and took a bite. Then, she smiled in satisfaction. (1)
From then on, Sean would bring chocolate or candy whenever he visited Heightsnew Villa as
if he were a candy seller. The habit lasted till this day. As long as Alyssa craved
candy and he was with her, then there would definitely be candy.
The atmosphere was heated at the press conference.
Dylan was very triggered as he stared at the reporter and shouted angrily, “I'm going to say this agai issues with any of the Gardner Group's products! I guarantee you personally!”
"Why did all the hotels under KS Group nationwide withdraw your products overnight if there
are no quality issues? Mr. Gardner, please give us a reasonable
explanation. It appears too suspicious,” said the
reporter firmly. The chat on the Twitter livestream was in an uproar.
“Guarantee it personally? That's a powerful statement. I suddenly think that Mr. Gardner is telling the “It doesn’t mean much coming from someone like him.”
“I don’t care if
there really are issues. I'm going to refund everything. I can't even bear the sight of Mr.
Gardner. Couldn't they have chosen another more likable spokesperson?”
“You guys want an explanation, don't you? Fine! I'll give you an explanation!” said Dylan.
With a threatening gaze, he said, “I do need to reflect on myself for letting something like this happ check each one personally. I can't do it all alone!
"Someone within Gardner Group acted
selfishly and harmed the company's interests. We've taken action against that
person and devised solutions to address the issues caused. However, the
person couldn't have accomplished it on his own. Someone in KS Group must have abetted him! Yet pushed all responsibility to us. Isn't this too much?”
The crowd went into an uproar.
“Dylan is full of crap. How dare he drag the Taylor Group into this? How shameless!” Xavier started d bear Dylan's shameless behavior.
Jasper's gaze was sharp and cold.
“Bring up the evidence I found!" commanded Dylan. Instantly, photos and bank statements appeare World Hotel's manager, Michael Grant, and the manager of Elysian
Home. The photos show them meeting in private and Michael receiving a huge amount
of bribes! (1)
"Gardner Group is not involved. It's all because Michael Grant
is corrupt. He colluded with my employee to buy cheap materials! Gardner
Group is also a victim! KS Group protected itself and dragged us into trouble. Can a big
company bully others so openly? We have to use

Dylan got into his act better the more he spoke. He almost believed his own
words! That new CEO from the Taylor family couldn't have guessed what he had had up his
sleeve, could she? She must be stunned! (1
He had decided to make Michael the scapegoat right from
the start. So he had intentionally left evidence since the first time he approached Michael. It
was all so he could use it as a trump card during a crisis!
Xavier clenched his fists and said, “This is bad. Now the online community is going to
attack Taylor Group. They'll say that the Taylors are abusing their power and bullying small businesse himself, a sharp noise blared from the speakers in the conference hall.
