Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1701

Jamie exclaimed, "They managed to scare us off. How embarrassing and humiliating!"

"You're kidding, right? It'd be even more embarrassing to stick around any longer," Lydia countered as she suppressed the pain in her wrist.

Lydia then retrieved her phone, opened the browser, and found a picture of Jonah Taylor, the president of KS Group.

Jamie peered over her shoulder. When she saw the picture, she gasped, "Isn't this the guy we saw earlier? He's the president of KS Group!"

Lydia's eyes darkened as she gazed at the picture, feeling beads of sweat forming.

Initially, the man had seemed familiar, but she couldn't place him. Then, as she left through the exit, it clicked—he was one-half of the gay couple that had recently made headlines.

"That can't be right. The president of KS Group is gay. How could he also be the one claiming to be Rose's boyfriend? They just bear a striking resemblance."

"You're right. That bitch couldn't be so lucky as to date a Taylor."

Jamie, visibly shaken, attempted to reassure herself. She murmured, "But they look so alike. Anyone would have thought they were brothers."

Rose returned to her office, clutching her chest while her other hand frantically searched her drawer for nitroglycerin pills. She found them, poured out a dose, and swallowed them hastily.

Silas entered the office behind her, noticing her continued distress even after taking the pills. His heart went out to her, feeling a pang of sympathy.

With her back to him, Rose's once proud posture now slumped slightly. She slowly tightened her grip on her chest, the strain evident in her movements. "You… saw everything."
