Can't Win Me Back Chapter 1992
Inside the interrogation room, Xavier sat silently beside Sean. He watched as Sean transformed into a cold and resolute fortress, shielding him from the officers' attack.His eyes shone brightly. He was almost shedding tears.If it weren't for his crush, he would fall for Sean.While Sean appeared calm on the surface, he felt uneasy inside.He felt that something about the whole situation was fishy. The attitude of the police seemed as if they were eager to pin the blame on Xavier immediately, fearing that he might turn the tables.Involvement in drug transactions as a buyer, even for small quantities, could result in a minimum six-month sentence.Once convicted, even if the sentence weren't severe, it would still be a huge blow to Xavier as the head secretary of Beckett Group's president. His future would be ruined.In another room, Harvey Palmer, the member of the Ivory Gang who sold drugs to Xavier, was having a private conversation with his attorney, Jabari Chapman."The Iv

Xavier successfully navigated this hurdle. When he emerged from the interrogation room, he maintained a calm demeanor, but his legs trembled inside his trousers.Jasper had once again taken away his first time. He needed an increase in salary.To avoid suspicion, Alyssa left through the back door of the police station. Meanwhile, Jasper and Xavier, accompanied by Sean, walked out of the police station gates.They expected to be swarmed by reporters outside, but strangely, there was no one there.Scratching his head, Sean remarked, "There's no one here? I had my press release ready.""Perhaps someone already got wind of Xavier being released, so there was no need to pay off reporters to spruce up his image for free," Jasper said coldly."Such a jackass," Sean couldn't help but curse."I've already notified Beckett Group's PR Department to work overtime tonight to withdraw the trending hashtags and control public opinion. We'll try to minimize the impact."Jasper continued calmly

Nathan waved his hand dismissively. "Please don't say that, Mr. Beckett. I was simply following Colene's instructions. It's just a small favor. Besides, Harvey is one of our guys. As the Ivory Gang's leader, it's my duty to handle this trouble. If you want to repay the favor, just repay Colene."The group entered Nathan's luxurious office, which was quiet compared to the bustling activity outside.Jabari immediately recounted Harvey's words to them."Meds?" Jasper and Alyssa looked surprised.Xavier's eyes lit up. "Yes, yes, when he was dealing with me, he asked if I was buying meds. Is that their code language?"Jabari explained, "Strangely enough, Harvey insists that what he was selling was not drugs but a type of medicine. It's a banned medicine popular overseas that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration here."It's said that taking this medicine can produce the same sensation as drugs, and it can't be detected even in urine tests. So, it has become particu

At the Millennium, upon learning that Xavier was safely released, Jameson was engulfed in rage. He smashed several antique crystal glasses into pieces."Please calm down, Mr. Schmidt." Nicholas' voice on the phone sounded cautious and respectful."Everything was planned perfectly. Jasper's secretary was supposed to be doomed. Who would have thought that the scum from the Ivory Gang would change his statement at the last minute and shoulder all the blame himself? It was too unexpected. I couldn't do anything.""The Ivory Gang pressured him?" Jameson widened his crimson eyes. He then slowly bent down to pick up a piece of broken glass and clenched it tightly in his palm.The blood seeped through his fingers, staining his pale hand with its vibrant hue.However, he felt no pain. Instead, the suffocating feeling in his chest eased a bit."Marc is already old. Years of fighting have left his body riddled with ailments. He's already retired to the background. Now, the Ivory Gang is und

Carl parted his lips anxiously but didn't know what to say."Carl, did Mr. Justin… lie to me?" Jameson suddenly asked hoarsely. "Is the medicine he gave me poison? Will I be dependent on it for life?"Before Carl could reply, he comforted himself with a smile, "But it doesn't matter. After all, Mr. Justin gave me this life... I have no complaints, even if he wants to take it away one day."I just... can't bear to leave Lyse. If I can't love her and be with her… I hope, at the very least, I can be the person who accompanies her to the end of her life."At the same time, there was a waterproof, delicate miniature tapping device silently capturing every sound in the room. It was hidden under the pot of red roses carefully tended by Jameson.Jameson checked and dismantled every nook and cranny in the private room, but he held the pot of roses dear, untouched. Any damage to its petals was met with severe consequences.He never imagined someone would hide a tapping device there...T

Before noon, Alyssa hurried back to Heightsnew Villa.Upon hearing her return, Colene immediately rushed down from upstairs. "Lyse!""Colene!" Alyssa hurried to greet her, and the two women hugged tightly. "Thank you for your help this time.""Don't say that. I'm already grateful that you and Jasper don't blame me. You don't know how scared I was."Colene's eyes were red. She kept patting her chest with her hand, still feeling scared. "Thank goodness Nathan sorted it out. If Xavier had landed in prison and Jasper got into trouble because of that jerk from the Ivory Gang, I would've been in tears. How could I still face you both?""Please don't say that. Even if you hadn't intervened, we would have found a way to get Xavier out."Alyssa's eyes softened as she gently patted Colene's back. "The Ivory Gang is such a big organization in Solana City with so many members. How could you possibly manage it?""The members are different now. They don't listen to their boss anymore."Colen

As Alyssa stared at the man in the photo, her heart clenched with each beat, then raced erratically.The yellowing border indicated the photo's age.In the image, Jonah and the man appeared intimately affectionate.Even though the photo couldn't speak, Alyssa could tell that Jonah and he were lovers. Their affection for each other was evident in the depth of their eyes.Jonah's smile in the photo was so bright and warm. Even Alyssa, who had been raised by Jonah since childhood, had never seen such a smile on his face, not even when he was with Julien.Somehow, a murky and inexplicable emotion lodged in Alyssa's chest, causing her discomfort.Suddenly, she heard steady footsteps outside the study.Alyssa quickly put the Bible back in its place and slipped the photo into her pocket.The door to the study clicked open.Jonah, wearing dark blue silk pajamas, entered leisurely. When he saw Alyssa, a smile crept on his face. "When did you come, Lyse? Did you wait for long?""Not to

Jonah continued, "After his identity was exposed, Khaos abandoned him, and Cloudtop hunted him down. Traitors always meet the same fate—death.""So... back then, you executed him as Judas?" Alyssa's voice trembled as a chill ran through her body.Jonah closed his eyes and shook his head in pain."When I became the leader, I swore that I would never kill. It was my bottom line. But back then... everyone was pressuring me and forcing me to execute him myself."Listening to this, Alyssa felt suffocated. Her heart pounded in fear."He didn't want to put me in a difficult position, so he grabbed the gun from my hand and shot himself."Jonah's tone was calm and low as he recounted the event again. If it weren't for the crimson in his eyes, Alyssa would have thought he was telling someone else's story.Would anyone in the world be able to bear such a devastating blow as watching their beloved take their own life before their eyes?If Jasper had done that, Alyssa might have picked up t
