Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1524

The look in Jameson's eyes hardened. "Sophia Kirkman is no longer of use. If you look around the Beckett Group, there's no one to keep Jasper Beckett in check—he's the only one in power.

"I'm concerned that Javier Beckett might hand Jasper more power out of guilt for his son and his late wife, as well as pressure from Newton Beckett. If that happens, Jasper will be invincible."

The man said calmly, "Let's play chess." Then, he moved his chess piece.

Jameson pursed his lips. He was about to make his move when the man smiled and remarked, "Mr. Schmidt, why are you so insistent that I go back to Solana City soon?

"Is it truly for my best, or are you doing this for yourself to gain a helping hand? Are you using me against Jasper Beckett to get your hands on Ms. Alyssa?"

"No, sir. Everything I do is in your interest. That surely wasn't my intention." Jameson broke out in cold sweat as he professed his loyalty.

"I don't mind lending a helping hand. But looking back, nothing comes out of helping you. Your relationship with Ms. Alyssa is stalled, and you only seem to be pushing her further away.

"You should rely on yourself instead of others. It's useless to depend on others' help," the man spoke, sounding like a wise elder.

"Mr. Schmidt, didn't you ask for aphrodisiac from sir? Haven't you used it?" Sheryl blinked at Jameson as though she was thinking out of consideration for him. "If it's not much of help, we can share the latest drug developed by the research center with you.

"It's more potent. I believe the new drug will make Ms. Alyssa listen to you. There's no shame in taking a shortcut in matters of the heart."

Frowning, Jameson gripped his teacup tightly.

The man put on a serious tone. "Enough, Sheryl. Stop teasing him. The drug DAD0044 has entered the trial phase, but we ran into a minor issue."

Jameson sat up straight. "Please go on."

"My research center has invested a significant amount of money and effort into developing this drug. Our goal is to be the global leader in developing a cure for Parkinson's disease.

Jameson furrowed his brows. "Sir, do you want me to disrupt their research? To be honest, I can't possibly achieve what you've failed to do—"

"I would like you to speed up the research progress." The man's voice grew colder. "No matter what it takes, I need to market drug DAD0044 ahead of Lovelace Pharmaceuticals."

Sheryl lifted a box from the table. She approached Jameson and placed the box in front of him.

She began, "For a drug to launch in the market, it will have to go through multiple experiments and trials. That will take at least a year, or in worse cases, three to five years."

She glared at him. "Sir wants like you to test the drug on humans."

"Test it on… humans?" Jameson looked stunned. He felt suffocated at the thought of it.
