Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1976

In the next moment, Jameson wrapped the arm holding the gun around her waist and pulled her closer until their bodies pressed. "Good job. Not only do I not blame you, I need to praise you. You revealing the information to Angelina messed up her plans, forcing her into solo action. She fell into Preston Harper's trap and lost her life because of it.

"Her death put Landon Harper into agony. His hair greyed overnight."

She remained stoic. Every word coming from his mouth ripped a piece of her heart out, the bloody and shameful mess scattering across the ground.

"Keep up with your plan and go big. I know you won't disappoint me." He released her and examined her figure. "Axel Whitaker's clothes look good on you. Remember to wear the same windbreaker at his funeral."

…

When Amber returned to her bedroom, the shades of sunset illuminated her lifeless face.

Stumbling to the full-length mirror, she slowly removed the black windbreaker. Fully naked, she revealed the shameful marks on her frail frame, proof of Jameson's action on her over the afternoon.

The beastly gentleman did not sexually assault her, choosing instead to torture her with multiple methods. Throughout the ordeal, she lay there like a corpse, making no noise at all. After all, she was already dead on the inside. The moment he pulled the trigger on the unloaded gun, he had killed her off.

She lifted her head slightly as tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably. She did not have much time left. The next time he pulled the trigger at her, he would be holding a loaded gun.

At that moment, she heard a familiar knock on the door. She hurriedly dried her tears and put on some clothes before answering the door.

"I'll keep an eye on Jameson's movements. If we join forces, we can certainly get some dirt on him and destroy him once and for all!"

"You're too naïve…" Shaking her head with a wry smile, she explained, "I know Mr. Schmidt and his tactics too well, having served him from a young age. I could not access all his information even when I was his trusted confidant.

"You're just his bodyguard, who doesn't even get to see him every day. You cannot possibly find any damning evidence against him. If he finds out, you might lose your life.

"Look, I don't mind dying because my life isn't worth much. But I don't want more innocent lives lost because of me. That will be worse than death for me."

Moreover, a mysterious man was behind Jameson. Amber had made many trips to Mosgravia with Jameson, but she never had the opportunity to meet that man in person. Despite that, she was well aware of that man's capability, which made him a tough rival to Alyssa and Jasper.
