Can't Win Me Back Chapter 1435
After several days, Inigo finally couldn't resist. He showed up again.However, Alyssa never expected that the person delivering the message to her was not Jonah or Landon but Colene.Jasper also realized the reason for Colene's question when she asked if he was around. It was because she knew Alyssa's temper well.If Alyssa found out that Inigo had appeared, she would rush over to catch him, regardless of anything. How could this wild filly be left without someone to restrain her?"How did you find out, Colene? Who tipped you off?" Alyssa's heart was pounding with excitement and astonishment."It's Nathan, my dad's adopted son."Jasper looked puzzled and asked softly, "Who's Nathan?"Alyssa's eyes brightened as she enthusiastically introduced him. "He's the one who fed Simon the feces. Technically, I should call him Uncle Nathan."Jasper's eyes lit up. He formed the impression that Nathan was a remarkable man."I asked him to gather all his men and circulate Inigo's photo so

Suddenly, Colene shouted, "Do you hear me, Jasper?"Jasper hurriedly sat up straight. "Yes, I'm here.""Control your woman a little. Don't let her act recklessly."Although Colene didn't sound friendly, her words were filled with concern. "If anything happens to Lyse, the Ivory Gang won't let you off."Alyssa felt speechless at her words. This daughter of the Ivory Gang's leader was quite domineering.Cyrus chuckled and shook his head while Xavier truly felt nervous for Jasper.Jasper wrapped his hand around Alyssa's waist and exerted force, giving her a sense of security. "Don't worry, Mom. I'll protect Lyse with all my might. Please rest assured."Suddenly, the atmosphere in the car quieted down.Mom?Even Alyssa usually only addressed Colene by her name, but Jasper actually called her "Mom" in one fell swoop.He actually mastered seizing opportunities to act cute.The other end of the phone suddenly went silent, and then Colene shouted, "You brat, who do you think you're

Inigo continued, "If I get caught, I'll expose all the dirty things you've done over the years. I'll let Ms. Alyssa see the ugly side of her childhood friend!"Jameson smiled mockingly as he knew Inigo wouldn't have the chance to report on him."How do you plan to give me the money?" Inigo's mind was all wrapped up in his funds."Follow the route I tell you to take now. I'll arrange for people to cover you and help you escape. As for the money, I'll put it on the plane. After you escape, quickly board the plane. It'll take off immediately, and you can successfully leave Solana City."…As instructed by Alyssa, Colene repeatedly reminds Nathan not to act recklessly and engage in a firefight with Inigo. If he didn't listen, she would block his number.This sentence was extremely effective against Nathan.When Alyssa and Jasper received the news, they immediately contacted Landon and Jonah. The police also dispatched manpower to track down Inigo and his men according to Nathan's pr

Late at night, Solana City International Airport seemed calm on the surface, but there was a storm brewing.Cyrus had applied for an arrest warrant and requested to work with the head of customs to hunt down Inigo. They were conducting a tight surveillance operation without causing public panic or affecting normal flight operations.The goal was to arrest Inigo on the spot.Plainclothes police officers were present in the airport terminal. Beyond customs, both the Taylors and the Harpers were stationed.The airport tonight was like a dragnet, just waiting for Inigo to fall into it.Time was ticking away.Jonah, Cyrus, and Landon stood in the control room, watching multiple surveillance screens. Their hearts were pounding. Even when their eyes were sore from staring at the screens, they dared not slack off."Mr. Jonah, Chief Cyrus, is there a possibility…"Landon, feeling a bit stifled by the atmosphere, cleared his throat and asked, "Is there a possibility that Inigo disappeare

The chilly night breeze carried a tense atmosphere as it swept through.Jameson's joy at seeing his beloved was dashed as soon as he noticed Jasper."Lyse, you're here!" Lily's eyes shimmered with gentle light. She even wanted to get up from the wheelchair to greet her.Perhaps Alyssa's striking appearance had left a lasting impression on her. Sometimes, Lily couldn't recognize her own son, but she could instantly identify Alyssa. It was genuine affection that couldn't be concealed."Hi, Mrs. Schmidt." Alyssa's voice was gentle. She smiled at Lily.Jasper's strong arm wrapped around Alyssa's waist. His gaze was sharp and icy as he stared at Jameson, observing his every move."Lyse, who is this?" Lily looked at Jasper's expressionless face in confusion, instinctively tugging at Jameson's sleeve.Alyssa gazed deeply at Jasper's handsome profile.Jameson adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said before she could reply, "Lyse, what a coincidence to meet you here. Are you also going

"We" was a word that created an insurmountable gap between Jameson and the couple. He could never cross it.Nevertheless, Jameson's gaze toward Alyssa still held deep affection.His obsessive love had turned him into a shameless lunatic."Lyse, you're misunderstanding me. But since you suspect me, I can cooperate with you fully."With that, Jameson bent down and gently held his mother's hand. "Mom, I'm sorry, but I can't accompany you on this trip anymore.""It's okay, it's okay."Lily's worried gaze turned to Alyssa. Her eyes were filled with tears as she spoke. "Lyse, don't be mad at Jimmy. If he made you angry, I apologize to you on his behalf.Alyssa felt her heart wrench. "Mrs. Schmidt, don't say that."Although Jameson was malicious and cunning, Lily was a pitiful woman suffering from a serious illness. Alyssa didn't want to engage in a fierce conflict with Jameson in front of Lily.After all, this woman, abandoned by her husband and exiled for 15 years, had only Jameson

Cyrus continued, "It exploded just as it was about to fly out of Solana City, near the boundary with Belbanks.""Exploded?" Alyssa and Jasper widened their eyes."Yes, residents living within the radius heard a huge explosion. That helicopter was blown up on the spot. I think there should be no survivors." Cyrus took a sharp breath.Jasper's heart sank. His sharp gaze suddenly turned toward Jameson.They had just discovered Inigo's whereabouts, and Jameson showed up to interfere. Then, the helicopter explosion happened.It seemed like everything was within Jameson's control."No survivors... Can we know who the owner of the helicopter was? Can we know how many people were on board and their identities?" Alyssa asked urgently, her gaze piercing.Cyrus whispered to Alyssa and Jasper, "I've sent people to investigate the specific information about the helicopter and have also retrieved surveillance footage from along the route and nearby areas. We should have results soon.""It's

Lily had just boarded the plane and was already feeling weak, so Jameson helped her to the bed.As he emerged from the inner cabin, he saw a fierce Alyssa. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her beautiful face was tainted with fury."M-Mr. Schmidt..." Carl stood behind Alyssa, looking extremely uneasy.This was the woman that Jameson held dear to his heart. Even if she wanted to blow up the plane, he didn't dare to intervene.The fierce look in Jameson's eyes softened at once. He smiled gently.Just as he wanted to approach Alyssa, she moved first, striding toward him.She grabbed him by the collar. Turning resentment into strength, she forcefully slammed him against the cabin door with a loud bang.The gorgeous and expensive crystal glasses on the table fell to the ground, creating a mess beneath their feet."Mr. Schmidt! Ms. Alyssa! Please talk things out!" Carl was flustered, yet he dared not make a move. He could only shout from his place.Smiling, Jameson stared at Alyssa's cri

Alyssa followed Jasper into the study. The door closed behind her with a soft click. She didn't move to switch on the lights or sit down. Instead, she stood quietly in the dim room.They faced each other, eyes locked. In the darkness, their gazes seemed brighter, charged with emotions that neither could put into words. Whatever stirred within them was tangled and silent—kept at bay by something unspoken, as if a wall had formed between heart and mouth. After a pause, Alyssa offered a faint smile. Her voice was soft, almost courteous. "Go ahead, Mr. Beckett. I won't be staying long tonight—I've made other arrangements."It was clear she didn't want to be alone in a room with him.Jasper's chest tightened, overwhelmed by a surge of emotion he couldn't define. His voice was rough when he finally spoke. "You didn't vote against the motion at today's board meeting. I wanted to know… are we still on the same side?"Alyssa's gaze lowered, her voice steady and calm. "You didn't object

In the evening, Xavier drove Jasper to meet with Newton. Along the way, news broke out that Sheryl had been bailed out. Xavier slammed his fist against the steering wheel. "Damn it! Why is it so hard to get rid of that woman?" "She is Justin's right hand," Jasper said, eyes shut as he leaned back in his seat. His jaw tightened. "You could even say she knows more about his secrets than anyone. As long as she's useful, Justin won't discard her so easily. This is how he operates."Xavier shook his head, teeth gritted. "Where the hell did she even come from? When you had me investigate her, I found nothing. Her background was spotless. "What's in her past that Justin would go so far to keep it hidden? A man like him can have any woman he wants, yet he clings to her—some pretty-faced idiot who only seems to make things harder for him."Jasper's gaze turned glacial. Xavier's casual remark struck him.He was right. Justin wasn't short on capable subordinates. So why Sheryl?Was Sh

This time, the injection did not bring the excruciating pain that once made Amber wish for death. Her chapped lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face as she gazed deeply into Remy's eyes. He, too, looked at her, his expression unreadable yet intense. Between them, no words were needed."Damien… Thank you…" Though her voice was barely audible, the weight of her words sank deep into Remy's heart. For once, he did not object to being called Damien.The truth was, ever since Amber had been taken, an unbearable pressure had settled over him, making each breath feel like a punishment—every day since had been plagued by self-reproach and regret.If he hadn't stopped her that night and let her go sooner, could she have avoided Sheryl? Could she have been spared the torture and humiliation?"You should know that those who enter this place never leave. Most don't even make it out alive."Remy's gaze was unwavering. Taking advantage of the surveillance blind spot, he placed his

"Mr. Lexington," the doctor greeted respectfully, lowering his head slightly. Everyone at the base knew who Sheryl and Remy were. They were the ones in charge, the decision-makers. So, everyone obeyed their orders without question. To the staff unaware of the facility's true purpose, Sheryl and Remy stood at the pinnacle of the hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, someone more powerful lurked in the shadows."How has she been these past few days?" Remy asked, his expression unreadable."She's had some adverse reactions, but there are no signs of organ failure yet. Honestly, I'm surprised. She looks frail, but her body is incredibly resilient—stronger than some men, even."The doctor scoffed. "But I'm not sure if she'll make it past her fourth injection today. Last month, four test subjects didn't survive beyond that point. Their bodies have already been sent to the incinerator." Remy's jaw tensed. His voice was husky as he said, "As I've instructed, this woman must be kept alive.

Xavier seethed as he took in the insincere smile on Justin's face. Deep down, he was cursing him with every profanity imaginable. "Whatever makes you happy."Ignoring Justin's dark gaze, Jasper kept his eyes fixed ahead as he strode past him.Out of nowhere, Justin chuckled and asked, "Did you really think you had people on your side during the board meeting?"Jasper halted, his eyes narrowing. "Grandpa tried his best to shield you, but his health is failing by the day. How much longer do you think an old man can protect you?"Lowering his gaze, Justin idly adjusted the ruby cufflinks on his sleeves. His voice was casual yet cutting. "And Lyse—after how ruthlessly you discarded her, do you still believe she'll stand by you no matter what? That she'll fight alongside you like before?"The intense midday sun accentuated the sharp, aloof, and pallid features of Jasper's face as he stood, unyielding, in its glare. His pulse quickened. Finally, he answered, his voice a low rasp. "R

As the board meeting concluded, the crowd gradually dispersed.News of Justin securing his position as president and Alyssa joining the board quickly spread through Beckett Group.After the meeting, Alyssa escorted Newton back to Crescent Bay while Jasper remained at the corporation to handle some matters.With Xavier accompanying him, Jasper strode toward the chairman's office, his expression cold and unreadable.Nearby, a few employees huddled together, whispering."Psst! Do you think Alyssa joining the board means she's teaming up with Jasper to take down our new president?""People have been saying they broke up since they haven't been seen together for a while," another speculated."But at the press conference, Alyssa openly condemned Mr. Justin. That looked like she was siding with Jasper. So, are they still together or not?""Come on, to people like them, personal feelings don't matter—only their own interests do. Even if they broke up, they can still work together if it

When Jonah reached the bedside, he leaned in slowly, giving Julien an unobstructed view of his tanned skin, well-defined abs, and that devastatingly captivating face. Reclining against the headboard, Julien found himself lost in Jonah's eyes. His breath hitched, and his mind momentarily blanked as Jonah's mesmerizing gaze locked onto him. What could he do? His heart still betrayed him, a frantic drumbeat against his ribs. He was a fool—a pathetic fool. Jonah braced his arms on either side of Julien's head, his dark eyes overflowing with a raw, possessive affection. It was as if he sought to consume Julien—just as he had last night."Julien, does it still hurt—" "Fuck you!" Julien's bloodshot eyes blazed as he swung his hand, landing a sharp slap across Jonah's face. The illusion of his frailty shattered. A crimson handprint bloomed on Jonah's cheek in a split second, the flesh puffing up visibly. But the sting barely registered. Not when the ache in Jonah's chest was alr

Justin frowned as a hint of surprise flashed across his dark eyes. He had assumed Newton's unannounced appearance at the board meeting—along with Alyssa's involvement—was a coordinated effort with Jasper to overthrow him as president. After mentally running through hundreds of countermeasures, the one possibility he hadn't considered was that everything would proceed smoothly in his favor. Javier was equally stunned, though this outcome aligned with his desires. Today, Justin wasn't merely his son but a constant shadow looming over him, a silent predator watching his every move and reminding him that his past actions weren't completely buried. Instead, this secret loomed like a ticking time bomb that could detonate at any moment, obliterating everything he'd built. And the person holding the detonator was Justin—his eldest son whom he had trusted above all others. With a dim gaze, Javier watched Justin rise to his feet amid the applause. Suddenly, Justin's voice seemed distant,

Justin curled his lips into a smirk, scoffing in silence. Newton had gone to great lengths to bring Alyssa into Beckett Group. This was his way of decentralizing power and keeping it in check, and he wanted to prevent Justin from having complete control. Unlike others, Javier couldn't hold himself back. He blew his top instantly, his face turning red like a tomato. "Dad, have you lost your mind? Don't you know who she is? She is KS Group's president—our direct competitor!"KS Group is also bidding for Project A5. No matter how much you favor her, you should at least recognize the limits. If you promote her, it's a blatant conflict of interest—outright cronyism!" Newton sneered. "I might understand your concern if I were promoting someone other than Alyssa."His gaze hardened. "Cronyism? A conflict of interest? I wonder who you're really talking about."With those words, he cast a knowing, enigmatic glance at Justin's blank expression. Just then, a board member from Javier's
