Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1017

Everyone was on edge.

"Who the hell is this?" Landon spat out through gnashed teeth, a deep frown etched across his face.

He loathed himself and Jasper for leaving too hastily. They didn't bring enough reinforcements to assert control and intimidate these troublemakers.

A commander seemed insignificant here, earning no more respect than anyone else. Even a major would have to accord him the respect he deserved if they were in Solana City.

"You're a grown man. Why are you acting like a headless chicken, losing your composure when something happens?"

Axel playfully teased Landon with a sidelong glance, the cigarette between his lips bobbing up and down. Despite his outward appearance of calm and composure, he tightly gripped the gun in his hand.

"I don't care who the hell this is or whether he's alone or with a group. I will teach them a lesson."

"You're right." Landon nodded, reacting quickly. Then, he frowned with anger. "Shit. What do you mean by a headless chicken? Take a look at yourself in the mirror."

Axel couldn't be bothered. He annoyingly whistled. "I don't mind that. I am the cream of the crop. If you and I fight to compete against each other, I will win over you by a mile."

Landon couldn't stand him, nor could he beat him. Yet, he couldn't outwit him with his mouth. He was outrageous.

At this moment, Alyssa and the rest realized the entire parking lot was locked down.

Two groups of guards wearing royal uniforms rushed in hastily. They lined up neatly on both sides. It was intimidating.

The commander saw what happened and frantically hid in one corner. He saluted respectfully with a serious look on his face.

"Phew, it must be a big shot that came. What a dramatic entrance." Axel whistled.

"From the looks of things, it seems like the person is royalty. From what I know, the royal family members are harboring the local arms dealers. Tsulu's government is extremely corrupted."
