Chapter 1122: Chapter 1122

An hour ago, Zoe called Cornelius’ confidant, Max Horatio, to al secluded place, 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 become the laughingstock of the entire Solana 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 plan to do it?”

“When horses are running, their explosive power is terrifying.

Moreover, they’ll keep running forward under the rider’s command, even if their legs are injured-until they collapse.

“So, I plan 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 third lap, 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?

From Everyone held back their laughter.

“But Uncle Winston’s Blaze is really amazing.”

Jameson took this opportunity to praise Winston, trying to improve relations between the two families.

“Lyse said that Tornado and Blaze are about the same, but they’re clearly not comparable. 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. Blaze’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.

“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.
