Can't Win Me Back

After Aidan's arrest, the Lovelace family plunged into unprecedented chaos.

Edgar fainted in a fit of rage and was rushed to the hospital. The police immediately questioned Joseph, who aged a decade during his interrogation at the station.

At the same time, he was slapped with a travel ban. He couldn't leave Solana City until the case was resolved.

As Joseph prepared to enter his car with his entourage, an egg came flying out of nowhere and smashed on his head.

"How dare you experiment on live humans? You're insane! Don't call yourself a human!"

"You killed so many innocent people for drug development! Have you no conscience?" "No more Lovelace Pharmaceuticals for me! Boycott Lovelace Group!"

Joseph's face flushed red as he hurried into the car, and the luxury vehicle sped away.

The smell of rotten eggs filled the car interior, making even the driver feel nauseous.

"Mr. Joseph, should we head home first to shower and change before visiting Mr. Edgar at the hospital?" Joseph's secretary, Ernest Brown, asked cautiously.

Joseph finally shed his civilized façade and erupted in fury. He landed a slap on Ernest's face, venting his shame and anger over the egg incident.

"Are you out of your mind? Shower and change at a time like this? Go to the hospital to see Dad first!"

Then he asked, "Has the lawyer seen Aidan? What did he say?"

Blood trickled from Ernest's mouth as he responded, "M-Mr. Owen said Mr. Aidan confessed to hoarding illegal drugs and selling them in bulk to gangs like the Ivory Gang." Joseph's head rang with a buzz as he angrily asked, "Why didn't he reveal his suppliers? Is he stupid or insane?"

"That's the tricky part."

Ernest didn't understand either. "Mr Aidan isn't the type to handle things

like this calmly. Besides, at this

point, if he doesn't shift the blame, he could face a lengthy sentence.

"Although he didn't personally kill anyone or self drugs, Mr. Owen mentioned that the previous human drug experimentation hashtag caused widespread panic among the public and resulted in several deaths.

"This is no different from indirect manslaughter. Even if we hire the best legal team in the world to defend Mr. Aidan, he might still-"

"Shut your mouth!" Joseph silenced Ernest with another slap.

Despite his anxiety, a glimmer of hope flickered in Joseph's heart.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Aidan's illicit dealings were with his approval and support. If Aidan cracked under pressure and

revealed his involvement, Lovelace Group would be completely doomed.

As long as he held firm, there might still be a chance.

Joseph arrived at the hospital. After hastily cleaning himself up in the restroom, he rushed to Edgar's VIP room. "Dad, I'm-"

But as Joseph stepped into the room, he froze in astonishment.

There was Mandy, tenderly feeding Edgar soup by his bedside.
