Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1413

In the street from across the police station, Alyssa had waited for a while in Jasper's arms.

Nestling against him softly, she sweated as she reported, "I received a text from Cyrus. He said he had asked a few close colleagues to keep tabs on the case. As of just now, apart from David Schmidt's attorney, no one from the Schmidt family has attempted to defend him. They did not make any moves at all."

It so happened that Alyssa was on her second day of the period, which was usually the worst. Jasper had advised her to stay home, but she was stubborn. Now, suffering from period cramps, she wiggled in his arms like an eel.

She silently thought, "Guess I need to listen to Jasper for once and take a good rest."

"Josh always plays long-term. All he wants right now is to hide away, I bet. There's no way he would defend a notorious and hopeless villain. He would only turn himself the next target of public wrath."

Holding her in his right arm, he placed a hand on her lower abdomen and caressed it in circles in a clockwise direction.

"Mm… Harder. Mm… Harder, please…"

Hearing that, he swallowed hard. A tingling sensation spread through his body from the fingertips in contact with her skin. He said hoarsely, "See? You're suffering from your stubbornness. I'll have Xavier buy something warm for you."

"It's fine. He's busy now with Maggie's matters. Don't bother him for everything. He's just your secretary, not your slave," Alyssa spoke up for Xavier, eliciting a bitter smile on Jasper's lips.

"Josh has not made a move, and the same goes for Victor. Seems like they're ready to give up on David," Alyssa said sweetly with a contradictory smirk. "That's their only choice right now."

"This scandal is the talk of the nation. As the Schmidt Group suffers from a PR crisis, it's only natural that they'll sacrifice David to calm the anger.
