Chapter 2031

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 onceagain.

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 sakeof 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 infor a kiss that he had been yearning for.

Asharp 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 forceyourself to be on guard to protect yourself?" Alyssa looked at him with a piercing gaze. She held her butterfly knife firmly againsthis throat.

“Jasper and | are man and wife. We are partners and comrades in arms. No one else can replace the sense of security he givesme. | was never a woman who sought out protection from another man anyway. | am capable of protecting myself. Whennecessary, | 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 agrueling 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 thatyou're making yourself a pawn?" Alyssa scoffed. She tilted her butterfly knife to an angle. "With all the evil deeds that you'vedone so far, do you even have any humanity left within you? Do you deserve to be negotiating with me? What right do you haveto askto give up on Jasper? "It doesn't matter if it's in this life or the next. | will never choose you.

“Also, put a stop to your evil deeds if you still have any hint of conscience within you. Otherwise, | will not care about the cost orthe consequences. | will destroy you and the person hiding behind you completely, even if it means that I have to give up mylife!" Upon saying that, Alyssa made a swift, long cut along the collar of Jameson's expensive suit. She pushed him away andstrutted 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 ithurt.novelbin

He looked down and was shocked to see blood staining his fingers. He burst out laughing, and a mad look flashed across hiseyes. Then, Carl's voice cfrom the other side of the door. "Are you in there, Mr. Schmidt?" "Cin." Carl entered immediately andsoftly closed the door behind him. Jameson had his back toward him. Carl asked, "Mr. Schmidt, Mr. Taylor and the others areabout to leave. Do you want to see them off?" "What difference does it make? No matter how hard | try to please Winston, hewon't change his attitude toward me." Jameson continued staring at the lood on his fingertips. All that filled is mind was theimage of Alyssa's uscious tips, making his heart e lutter. He continued, "His current son-in-law is Jasper, who's able to owerhimself to the point where he ucks up to Winston and the "aylors. That's something | can't do.

"The only one | care about is Lyse."Carl harrumphed. "Other thanbootlicking, what does Jasper know?Of all things, Ms. Alyssa and Mr.Taylor accept that side of him!" Carlhad a look of disdain on his face.Angrily, he remarked, "! don'tunderstand why she has a £94

"She's even foundout that have been instructing Aidanto sell the so-called ‘drugs’ and usingThe lvory Gang members to performdrug experiments." Carl wasastonished. "What? How did she findout so quickly?" Alyssa wasremarkable! She might be a woman,but she was a force to be reckonedwith! "Julien is now half a familymember of theirs.

"Was Aidan the only person whom Ms. Alyssa found out about? How about Chief Novak?" Carl couldn't help but feel worried.

"| don't think she's found out about him. He's such a significant witness. If she did, the emotional Lyse that | know would havecalled 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.

"| understand Lyse and Jasper'sapproach. Since they've found outabout Aidan, he is now a tickingtbomb to us. So, | have to be onestep ahead of them and wipe auout." "The drug has yo@beer?

He looked like a man and a monster at the stime.

"As the saying goes, clothes makethe man. But, | would still need to relyon Joseph, Aidan, and all the otherLovelaces to wash the dirt off me."

"Don't worry. They wil@ptiately bethe onedko taker the blame. Isn't thiswhat you've already agreed uponwith Mr. Justin?" Carl added, "I willnotify Chief Novak to make thepreparations accordingly over thenext few days."
