Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

The look in Alyssa's clear eyes beceven more distant.
Jimmy-the nicknseemed distant, almost forgotten, tucked away in the recesses of her mind. Yet now, it echoed in her ears once again.
The youth with an innocent and tender smile from her past appeared again in her mind.
Unfortunately, life's hardships and the cruelty of humanity had transformed the said youth into a despicable devil.
There was no other way than for her to ensure that justice was served by getting rid of this devil. She had to do this for the sake of her loved ones and those who were controlled and harmed by him.
Jameson noticed Alyssa's absent-mindedness. He thought that his words moved her.
Waves of passion crashed within him, and his breathing becheavier. He lowered his eyes. He couldn't help himself and leaned in for a kiss that he had been yearning for.
A sharp crack sounded in the dark stairwell.
The next moment, Jameson froze.
He felt a sharp coldness on his neck, and his lips went pale. He narrowed his eyes and smirked.
"You're still as agile as before, Lyse. Is it because Jasper can't give you a sense of security? Is that why you have to force yourself to be on guard to protect yourself?" Alyssa looked at him with a piercing gaze. She held her butterfly knife firmly against his throat.
"Jasper and I are man and wife. We are partners and comrades in arms. No one else can replace the sense of security he gives me. I was never a woman who sought out protection from another man anyway. I am capable of protecting myself. When necessary, I can also give my all to protect Jasper." Jameson's eyes were bloodshot. He looked like he was about to devour her.
He groveled through the thorny darkness all his life. Although all he had achieved had cwith Justin's support, it was still a grueling and bloody journey for him.
No one had ever shielded him from harm. He even had to protect his poor mother with his frail body.
At this very moment, his most beloved woman was declaring to his face that she wanted to protect the person he hated. Undeniably, she was cruelly slashing his heart into pieces and stomping on them! "Jameson, don't you think that it's funny that you're making yourself a pawn?" Alyssa scoffed. She tilted her butterfly knife to an angle. "With all the evil deeds that you've done so far, do you even have any humanity left within you? Do you deserve to be negotiating with me? What right do you have to askto give up on Jasper? "It doesn't matter if it's in this life or the next. I will never choose you.
"Also, put a stop to your evil deeds if you still have any hint of conscience within you. Otherwise, I will not care about the cost or the consequences. I will destroy you and the person hiding behind you completely, even if it means that I have to give up my life!" Upon saying that, Alyssa made a swift, long cut along the collar of Jameson's expensive suit. She pushed him away and strutted off.
With a loud wham, the door to the stairwell slammed shut.
The sensor light above Jameson lit up. He bit down hard on his lip as he lifted his hand and touched the part of his neck where it hurt.
He looked down and was shocked to see blood staining his fingers. He burst out laughing, and a mad look flashed across his eyes. Then, Carl's voice cfrom the other side of the door. "Are you in there, Mr. Schmidt?" "Cin." Carl entered immediately and softly closed the door behind him. Jameson had his back toward him. Carl asked, "Mr. Schmidt, Mr. Taylor and the others are about to leave. Do you want to see them off?" "What difference does it make? No matter how hard I try to please Winston, he won't change his attitude toward me." Jameson continued staring at the lood on his fingertips. All that filled is mind was the image of Alyssa's uscious tips, making his heart e lutter. He continued, "His current son- in-law is Jasper, who's able to ower himself to the point where he ucks up to Winston and the "aylors. That's something I can't do.

"The only one I care about is Lyse." Carl harrumphed. "Other than bootlicking, what does Jasper know? Of all things, Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Taylor accept that side of him!" Carl had a look of disdain on his face. Angrily, he remarked, "I don't soft
understand why she has a soft spot for him." "Lyse has found out about my dealings with Aidan in secret." Jameson's eyes were wintry. He tightened his fists. "She's even found out that have been instructing Aidan to sell the so-called 'drugs' and using The Ivory Gang members to perform drug experiments." Carl was astonished. "What? How did she find out so quickly?" Alyssa was remarkable! She might be a woman, but she was a force to be reckoned with! "Julien is now half a family member of theirs. Nathan is the leader of The Ivory Gang and is close to her. Plus, her brother, Cyrus, is the leader of the Criminal Investigation Unit.at's just a matter of tbefore Lyse gets answers to her questions." Even at this point in time, Jameson's eyes were still filled with admiration for Alyssa. The content is on Popsnovel.com! Read the latest

"Was Aidan the only person whom Ms. Alyssa found out about? How about Chief
Novak?" Carl couldn't help but feel worried.
"I don't think she's found out about him. He's such a significant witness. If she
did, the emotional Lyse that I know would have called the cops on me." Jameson pushed his golden-framed glasses back. He smiled slightly. "Though Lyse did remindthis time. We do need to be more careful.

"I understand Lyse and Jasper's approach. Since they've found out about Aidan, he is now a ticking tbomb to us. So, I have to be one step ahead of them and wipe him out." "The drug has now been m distributed to half of Solana City through the underground market. Aidan isn't worth much to us
anymore.' With a sinister look on his face, Carl commented, "It's also a risk to keep him." "I am someone who likes to make the most out of something. We must ensure that his sacrifice is worth it." Jameson
