"It's true. She met with no one. I swear!" Carl asserted calmly, though his heart raced within.

Jameson leaned back, a slight smile playing on his lips. "It seems like you've taken quite a fancy to her." "I..." Carl stammered, his face flushing in panic.

"If that's the case, I shall decide on your behalf this time. You should marry Amber." Carl's eyes widened in shock. "You... You wantto marry Amber?" "I know you've always had feelings for her," Jameson replied, closing his eyes casually. "It's been too long since we celebrated anything in the Schmidt family. You've servedfaithfully without asking for anything in return.

"I'm not heartless. I recognize your true desires. Consider Amber a token of my gratitude, if you will." "Thank you, Mr. Schmidt! I'm honored to marry Amber. She's a gift from you. Why would I ever mind? I'd be ecstatic!" Carl exclaimed gratefully, moved.

"Start planning the wedding soon. I'll be generous with my congratulations," Jameson said with forced cheer. "Hold it in Kontina, and let Amber stay there. You'll travel between the two cities." "I understand, Mr. Schmidt," Carl replied, a flicker of comprehension crossing his features. His chest tightened. "But what about Chief Novak? How do you plan to deal with the situation?" "He's been corrupt for years. He'll understand his position," Jameson replied coolly, eyes narrowing with a hint of coldness. "Besides, I still hold leverage over his weakness. If he's wise, he won't betray me." News of Police Commissioner Nicholas Novak's arrest for premeditated murder sent shockwaves throughout the nation. The revelation of the true culprit brought relief, as Nathan, the wrongly accused, was finally cleared of murder charges. However, the prosecution continued to pursue an assault charge against him, though with a significantly lighter sentence. It was practically a fresh start. Considering his good behavior in detention, Nathan was granted a suspended sentence and released on bail thanks to the Waters family. On the day of his release, Alyssa and Colene arrived together to pick him up.

"Ms. Colene, I'm so sorry for the trouble," Nathan said, his voice thick with emotion. Despite his past as a fearless gang leader, he was on the verge of tears.

"What are you talking about, Nathan? We're family," Colene replied, tears welling up in her eyes. She pulled him into a hug. "I know it's been incredibly difficult." "It was nothing. But I do owe my release to Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Beckett," Nathan said, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Alyssa.

"My contribution to clearing your nwas minimal, Mr. Nathan," Alyssa said brightly. "The credit goes to a remarkable woman. She bravely provided the key evidence. I can't hold a candle to her strength and wisdom." Colene and Nathan asked in unison, "Who is she?" Alyssa smiled. "My sister-in-law." Just then, her phone rang. It was Jasper.

"How are things going, Jasper?" "Lyse, Chief Novak has confessed to murder, but he refuses to speak on anything else," Jasper said. "Getting him to implicate Jameson will be a tough challenge, I'm afraid."
