Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Some were distraught and lost, while others remained sprightly and kicking.
Jameson had acted as if he'd just heard the news and hurried over to Heightsnew Villa. He was currently sitting anxiously in the
living room.
"Tsk. We only just sent Jasper away, yet now Jameson has come crawling all the way back here! What did our baby sister do to
deserve this? What bad karma did she accrue?"
Jonah and Silas were looking downstairs from the second-floor landing. Silas was so angry he was grinding his teeth together.
Jonah coldly eyed Jameson's face, which had had its fill of putting up a dramatic show. His hand around the railing was so tense
his veins were bulging.
"He didn't show up at the event even though he's his family's favorite right now. Yet here he is, showing up first thing the moment
something happens to Lyse.
"Hmph! Based on my years of experience as a prosecutor, I know he definitely has something to do with what happened earlier
tonight. He probably worked together with Zoe and used her as a pawn!" Silas hissed.
"Your analysis isn't too different from mine. Jameson is a very cunning man who's very skilled in using others to carry out his dirty
work," Jonah said.
Jonah's cold eyes were fixed on Jameson's face. "He's already planned out his escape route before putting his plan into motion.
I fear he's already removed every trace of himself from the picture.
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have come all over here without fear. He probably thinks he has nothing to worry about anymore."

"Damn it! We've let a fox into our nest now!" Silas huffed angrily. "You, me, and the other boys combined can totally overpower
Jameson. Are we really just going to stand here and do nothing?"
Just then, Winston and Lyla came downstairs to meet Jameson, accompanied by Neil.
"Uncle Winston, Madam Lyla," Jameson got up to greet them. His respectful and gentle demeanor was the kind elders liked to
see the most in youngsters.
"My daughter is feeling unwell, Jameson, so she won't be able to join US," Lyla spoke up on behalf of Winston, seeing how ill he
looked. "Plus, I'm sure you know what happened during tonight's event. We really aren't in the mood to welcome any guests, so
please leave."
Jameson's gaze darkened slightly after Lyla said that. His fingers clenched lightly, but he still patiently said, "I couldn't rest well
after hearing about Lyse's condition, so I rushed over to see her.
"Don't worry, Uncle Winston. I know some very good doctors from Mosgravia, all world-renowned professionals. If the doctors in
the country can't do anything to help, I can ask the doctors from Mosgravia to come here to Belbanks to help Lyse!" "Jameson,"
Winston suddenly spoke up. "I appreciate your kind gesture. But you're Taty's fiance now. Even though you grew up with Lyse
and have a close relationship with her, you should now direct your concern to Taty. It's time you distance yourself from Lyse."
Jameson was shocked. His face even paled somewhat.
"Haha! Serves him right!" Silas snickered. "He plotted out everything yet still couldn't reach Lyse in the end. Now his plan is
going to bust because his own plan is biting himself in the ass!"
"Uncle Winston, the person I wanted to marry has always been Lyse! I've never wanted to marry anyone else!" Jameson
exclaimed passionately, no longer hiding his true desire.

Lyla was stunned. Her lips pulled thin awkwardly.
"What did you just say?" Winston asked, his brows knitting together. "Jameson, all my daughters are fine young women, not
items for you to negotiate and purchase as you please. We agreed you'd marry Taty, so Taty it is. Never mention your matter with
Lyse ever again!"
"You know just how true my love for Lyse is, Uncle Winston. The heavens itself is my witness."
Jameson might be a cunning, devious, lying cheat, but his love for Alyssa was real. The sincerity of the love in his eyes was
unmistakable. "I never had a choice about who I was going to marry in this arranged marriage! I only stayed out of the way
because I thought Lyse had found happiness. But do you still think Jasper is the best choice for Lyse right now?"
Winston's breath was punched out of his lungs. Pain filled his lungs when he recalled how his daughter could never be a mother
again.
"I wasn't able to protect Lyse back then while she suffered endlessly. I swear to protect only her from now on. rd never find fault
or hurt her like Jasper Beckett has done," Jameson said.
Jameson's eyes were reddened with emotion as he begged, "Please, Uncle Winston ... let me marry Lyse. I'll never let what
happened to Lyse happen again!"
"Hmph! You should keep on dreaming!"
When Jameson saw Jonah and Silas walking downstairs, his eyes glinted dangerously. His teeth locked together angrily.
"Don't be fooled by him, Dad! He's not a good person whatsoever!"
