Can't Win Me Back

"Lyse, what's on your mind?" Jasper questioned, visibly concerned.

Landon and Angelina cast worried looks at her.

"Xavier made a great point there. We all know Jameson is cunning and ruthless. He could well get rid

of Inigo Montiye discreetly, and that's something he has been working on, but his weapon of choice hasnovelbin

just been delivered."

When Landon and the others were trying to grasp the meaning behind her words, things clicked for

Jasper.

Jasper asked, "Are you referring to the private jet?"

She nodded hard. Her eyes were filled with worry. "Jameson can't hurt Inigo Montiye on the ground;

dealing with his enemy in the air is easier. Besides, once he flies Inigo Montiye out of Cyrris, we can't

stop him anymore. He could do anything he wanted to that guy."

That was a terrible yet brilliant move by Jameson.

Looking agape at Alyssa and clapping like a seal, Landon praised, "Lyse, you're smart! You're godlike!"

"Stop flattering me. Think of a solution now," urged Alyssa, who felt a burden on her chest.

"Xavier, from now on, get more men to keep track of the movements of Jameson's private jet. If he

makes a move, we'll need to stop him," Jasper hissed with an icy demeanor.

"Got it, Mr. Beckett!"

Jasper Beckett was once a haughty scion with high social standing, but before Alyssa, he was just a

strategist and right-hand man who'd willingly submit himself to her service.

"What if we can't stop him? What if the jet takes off? We can't possibly shoot at it!" Landon threw out an

absurd-sounding question with a serious face.

"Inigo Montiye is a wanted man in both Cyrris and Tsulu. I'll reach out to Liam and Cyrus. The military

and the police will work on the case together." Grinning proudly, she proclaimed, "Even if Inigo Montiye

takes off, I have a way to get him!"

Landon, Jasper, and Xavier cast admiring looks at her.

Daisy Schmidt had gone to prison, and David was under arrest. As Jasper had described, Josh lost

both support pillars and walked on thin ice.

On top of that, Josh had to use up his wealth from years of illegal business deals in Kontina to stabilize

the Schmidt Group's stock price. Due to his efforts, he started gaining Victor's trust, leading to a

growing faction in the company loyal to him. Part of the upper management and shareholders gradually

lent their support to him.

Life was getting tough for Josh, but he wasn't about to give up. No matter what, he would never allow

Jameson, the bastard child of the Schmidt Family, to ride over him.

Therefore, he devised a plan to reduce David's sentence. David had always been Victor's favorite, as

he had lived with Victor the longest and was adept at ingratiating himself with their father, Victor.

Understandably, David's arrest dealt a massive blow to Victor.

Josh met up with Victor and consoled Victor. "Dad, don't worry about it. Sexual assault isn't that big of a

crime. All we have to do is pull a few strings, and David will be out in a few years."

"A few years? Do you take me as a fool?" Although Victor was heavily embarrassed by David's nudity

on TV, he worried himself to death for his beloved second son. As a result, his hair had greyed.

Victor snapped, "There were minors among the women he assaulted! Minors! He'll be locked away for

at least ten years for that. Of all the women he could sleep with, why would he lay a finger on kids?

He's an idiot!"

After a pause, Josh said in a grave tone, "You're right on one thing. Our family is as important as the

Becketts in Solana City. We're one of the four distinguished families. Were those women whom he

assaulted truly innocent without any ulterior motive?"

Victor frowned. "Josh, what do you mean?"

"Some of those women he allegedly raped were his exes, and some were escorts for hire. A few even

initiated the contact—they were calculative women who planned to marry into wealth.

"The police might hold part of the evidence, but they had no witness. Their so-called witnesses are

unreliable. When the case is brought to court, they won't have anything against David. That'll reduce

David's sentence."

Victor, a seasoned businessman himself, did not need Josh to lay it out before he grasped the idea.

Satisfied with Josh's arrangement, he cast a serious and expectant look on his son. "Josh, I'll leave this

to you. Let's go ahead with the plan."
