Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1718

Alyssa and Jasper grew solemn in front of the serious-looking Cyrus. "Cyrus, go ahead."

"You're well known as a couple who seek justice and fight for what's right." Cyrus sounded sarcastic.

His remark prompted Jasper to glance at Alyssa. Jasper caressed her nape while replying, "Well, I'm not that great. I'm only assisting Lyse. She's the one who's outstanding, smart, and kind."

"Cyrus was just teasing us! How could you make me shoulder his taunts while you act like the humble one?" Squinting, she playfully elbowed Jasper.

"I didn't tease you. I meant it." Growing serious, Cyrus explained, "The two victims killed today by the man who held Lauren hostage were members of a school bullying group."

Jasper's eyes darkened, and his face paled. Similarly, despair flashed across Alyssa's eyes. The fated couple had both experienced bullying before. Therefore, they hated bullying behavior more than anyone else.

"The murderer had a daughter who had been severely bullied by the five students in her two years at the school. She even got her nude photos taken. The five students made her their slave, and if she refused to comply, they threatened to spread her nude photos on the school forum.

"She and her father repeatedly lodged police reports, but they were being dismissed as there was insufficient evidence against the five, all because two of them came from wealthy and powerful families.

"The father and daughter endured abuse because no one would help them. In the end, the poor girl chose to jump off a building because she couldn't stand the humiliation."

"Wealthy and powerful?" An intimidating gleam appeared in Jasper's eyes. "Tell me their names. I'd like to see how wealthy and powerful they are."

Equally indignant, Alyssa asked, "How's that girl doing?"
