Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1823

Alyssa's and Jasper's expressions turned solemn after listening.

"If not, it could be that he cleans up the scene thoroughly every time he commits a crime, leaving no trace behind. But that doesn't quite fit the modus operandi of an outlaw or top-tier assassin."

Cyrus traced his jawline with his finger as he calmly analyzed the situation. "So, I'm inclined to believe he's a hired assassin from abroad."

"If that's the case, it'll be even more difficult to investigate him. Once this job is done, he'll disappear immediately. He'd probably use a false identity to flee the country." Jasper's gaze darkened gradually.

"Didn't Ms. Angelina see his face? She can come to our station tomorrow and describe his face based on her memory. I can arrange for a top-notch profiler from our city to come and draw a portrait of that assassin."

Cyrus' eyes flashed with determination. "Having a sketch might provide more clues. We can't delay too long. People's memories fade, and the likeness of the portrait can become distorted. The most accurate portrait will be drawn while the memory is fresh."

Alyssa and Jasper exchanged looks. Just as they were about to speak, a sweet and composed voice spoke from behind.

"I remember his face."

Cyrus swiftly lifted his gaze.

Seeing Lauren descend the stairs gracefully, he felt his heart throb in his chest. He hurriedly stood up from the couch.

The hot blood that once flowed calmly through his veins now seemed to stir restlessly.

Jasper suddenly remembered. "Right, Lauren had contact with that man too."

Pressing her lips together, Alyssa walked over to Lauren and gently wrapped her arm around her shoulder. "Lauren, we'll contact Angelina tomorrow and have her assist with this. You don't need to do anything or think about it. The most important thing is to focus on getting well."

She knew that although Lauren seemed fine on the outside, her soul was suffering from the trauma of her episodes and the torment of her breakup with Landon.

Alyssa wished she could find the time to arrange modified electroconvulsive therapy for Lauren, hoping it would help her completely forget that painful day.

She couldn't bear to see Lauren forced to relive that trauma, especially during such a critical time, which would only compound her suffering.
