Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1569

As the call connected, Jameson sat upright in anticipation.

"Sir..."

"Mr. Schmidt, isn't it late at night in your time zone? Haven't you slept yet?" The person who answered the phone was Sheryl.

Jameson's heart skipped a beat. He said in surprise, "Ms. Gillis?"

"It's morning in Mosgravia now. Sir is visiting the Jesseltons and can't take your call now."

Sheryl's tone carried a hint of contempt as she said, "If you have something to say, you can tell me, and I'll convey it to him."

Frowning, Jameson clenched his fist.

He had been working with that man for so many years and devoted himself tirelessly, but he still felt an emptiness in his heart. He felt that there was an invisible barrier between them. He even doubted whether the man truly regarded him as a confidant.

And yet, this Sheryl woman, who had only recently joined the man's side, had gained such great trust from him, even being allowed to answer his calls.

Could someone as wise and mighty as him have a weakness for women?

"Mr. Schmidt, if this is nothing urgent, I must return to sir's side." Sheryl showed no patience for Jameson.

"I've delivered the medicine sir gave me to Lyse. She accepted it."

"Oh, that's good. Congratulations, Mr. Schmidt. She finally accepted your kindness for once." Sheryl chuckled sarcastically.

Jameson hesitated for a moment. "The medicine won't cause any issues, right?"

"Haha! Mr. Schmidt, are you suspecting that sir will ruin your relationship?"

…

In the blink of an eye, it was already morning.

Upon learning the truth, none of the Taylors dared to sleep. They all anxiously waited outside the ward. Their eyes were bloodshot from staying up all night, and they were all dejected.

Lyla, Colene, and Tatiana brought a lot of breakfast and rushed to the hospital, but no one had any appetite. They sat silently, waiting for news.

Alyssa sat in a chair with Jasper's oversized suit draped over her. She had been sitting motionless for hours, not even bending once.

Jasper had messaged Xavier and Landon, asking them to come up with a solution. After all, it was a matter of great importance. He couldn't entrust it to anyone he didn't trust, fearing leaks.

For now, all he could do was accompany Alyssa. He held her ice-cold hand tightly in his.
