Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1409

Josh, of course, had gotten wind of the culprit's arrest. He had prepared himself for the outcome, but he lost sleep when he learned that Cyrus was the police on the case. His mind whirred nonstop to come up with solutions.

"Mr. Schmidt, there is no need to panic," Josh's right-hand man, Cliff McMahon, advised with a sly grin. "You foresaw this coming and made the necessary arrangements, didn't you?

"Besides, you never had any direct contact with Magnus Vale. Since his wife and children are in our hands, he will not rat on you. He has no choice but to keep his mouth shut for his family's sake."

"It's not enough to keep his mouth shut," said Josh, who rubbed his sore forehead.

There was a threatening gleam in his eyes with dark circles. He added, "We need him to point a finger at David. There needs to be a mastermind responsible for the assassination, or the Taylors will not let this slide because they're a crazy bunch."

Cliff nodded furiously. "You're right."

Josh lifted the whiskey glass from the table and rattled the ice cubes with a snicker. "It's David's man who carried out the orders anyway, so it's only fair for him to clean up the mess. I shall consider it David's final contribution to the Schmidt Group."

"Mr. Schmidt, we have another problem at hand. We need to think of a way to get Cyrus Taylor off the case for our convenience."

Squinting dangerously, Josh replied to Cliff, "Hmph. I have a good idea."

…

The next day, news about Cyrus Taylor being the son of Winston Taylor spread like wildfire across the internet, causing a huge stir. The netizens had a field day with it.

"Wow, is that handsome policeman the son of Winston Taylor? He keeps a low profile, though."
