Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1422

"Jasper, it's alright if they don't understand you. I understand you." Alyssa exhaled. She placed her warm hand on the back of Jasper's hand. "If I were you, I would also do all I can to fulfill my mother's dying wish.

"At the same time, I understand how your mother felt. What she actually wanted was for you to have the ability to protect yourself. That was why she hoped that you could become more powerful.

"There's nothing wrong with the path that you have chosen. As much as you may hate your father, Grandpa Newton has always cared for you. You're indebted to him for raising you. For Grandpa's sake, your perseverance and toil will not be completely meaningless."

"Lyse… Thank you." Jasper choked on his tears. His voice trembled slightly as he called her name.

"You don't have to thank me. I'm just someone who understands you," Alyssa replied as she smiled sweetly at him.

"Jeffrey is now willing to testify against Sophia to say that she was involved in contract killings. With drug possession and substance abuse to top that, she wouldn't be getting a short sentence."

Silas lowered his brows. "But I know that this is still far from what we want. What we want is for her to be sentenced to death. After all, she has claimed many lives!"

"That will be a challenge."

Cyrus frowned and shook his head. The expression on his face was glum. "There is no incriminating evidence to say that she instigated the murder. Plus, Ms. Nina's voice recording was taken without consent. It cannot be presented as evidence in court.

"Regarding Jasper's mother's case, it's been over 20 years. Relying on a maid's testimony won't be sufficient.

"Also, Simon is still Sophia's legal representative this time. We can't be sure what other dirty trick he has up his sleeve to come against us!"

Sean's face turned pale. He took a deep breath and said, "This time, I will be appearing in court as Nina's defense attorney."

A shocked look came across Silas' and Cyrus' faces. "You're going to court?"

Alyssa and Jasper, on the other hand, remained calm. They even glanced at Sean with a look of confidence.

This was because Sean had already shared his plan with them a few days ago. He had also obtained their support.
