Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1343

Alyssa widened her eyes, staring blankly at Jasper's attractive side profile. Tatiana fell silent on the other end of the line. She was sobbing quietly.

"What's wrong? One of you is staring at me. The other one went quiet." Grinning, he pinched Alyssa on her cheeks. "Is no one willing to trust me?"

"No, that's not it…" Tatiana said with gratitude, "Jasper, thank you so much for helping Sean. I'm really thankful."

"We're family. Don't mention it." Once Jasper soothed Tatiana's emotions, he hung up and instructed Xavier, "Make a turn. Let's head to the police station."

Xavier immediately made a U-turn.

"Jasper, what's your plan?" Worry was etched on Alyssa's face. On the contrary, he appeared calm.

"No matter what, let's focus on saving Sean for now." Sighing, Jasper locked his fingers with her and tightened his grip. "Taty and Sean went through a lot just to be together. I do not wish to see them going through a tough time anymore. I want to protect them from harm."

Alyssa held her breath and mused, "Are you empathizing with them now?"

He shook his head and pulled her into a hug. "I used to be, but not anymore because I have achieved my happiness."

…

Sean had been detained at the filthy detention center for two weeks. If the Schmidts refused to settle in private, he might have to stay on longer. Despite the challenges, he refused to rat on Alyssa and Jasper.

Even if he were to go to prison, he would shoulder all the blame and maintain his integrity.

At that moment, Sean stood with his back against the wall. He crossed his arms and shut his eyes. Across from him, a few men cowered in the corner and shot cautious glances at him while chatting with each other.

"You're disturbing me." Without looking at them, Sean threatened, "Shut up, or I'll beat you up."

The men in detention promptly fell silent as they trembled under his threat. Seeing that, Sean let out a melancholic sigh. Life had been chaotic ever since his first night at the detention center.

With the accounts from the witnesses and the injuries David sustained from Sean's assault, Josh could effectively paint David as the victim.

Not only that, Alyssa would be at the center of public criticism and perceived as abusing her power to right personal wrongs. Considering the toxicity of the online environment, the netizens would be more than eager to release their frustration on the rich without caring for the truth.

Josh popped a bottle of champagne and enjoyed it alone. He cackled. "Alyssa Taylor, are you trying to fight me? You were still a fledgling when I was already in the business!"

…

Gabe stared at the two VIPs in his office. He forced a smile despite being drenched in sweat. Even with the backing of the Schmidts, he cowered under the pressure of the two dazzling and intimidating figures.

Smiling, he greeted them, "So, what brings you here?"

"We're here for what the Schmidts have done," Alyssa offered a piercing reply with a snicker, which he perceived as threatening.
