Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1877

This night, there were some who were feeling uneasy and some who were confident.

At the Millennium, Amber was leading Remy through the grand-looking corridors. Remy was like a bat that was lying in wait in the dark. Amber, who was walking in front of him, couldn't help but get chills down her spine.

Jameson had been waiting for a while in the highly-secretive room.

"I didn't think that we'd meet again so soon, Mr. Lexington."

Jameson welcomed him with a wide smile. He brought a glass of red wine over and handed it to him. "It must have been a long journey. This is a world-class red wine that I've prepared specially for you."

The look on Remy's face was frigid. He pushed the wine glass away from him without a second thought. He showed no respect to this man, who had Solana City in his hands.

"Ms. Altman has briefed me on the way here."

Jameson saw that Remy rejected his drink, so he drank it instead. He was someone who could be flexible too. "Oh, has she? That saves me some time then," he remarked.

"You keep making things difficult for a young lady, Jameson. Do I look like I have a lot of time on my hands?" Remy stared at him with a dark gaze.

Jameson clicked his tongue. "Why? Are you feeling soft-hearted toward her now, Mr. Lexington?"

Jameson gave him a sidelong glance as he twirled the glass of red wine in his hand. "It seems like you aren't as brutal as I thought, Mr. Lexington. You have a human side to you."

"I just don't think it's worth my time. What you've asked me to do is below my pay grade."

Remy frowned. He spoke sarcastically, "Mr. Justin promoted you to be the person in charge of Solana City. Are you only capable of kidnapping your enemy's wife and kids as your way to fight back against them?

"You even had to call for external help. As for The Millennium, you should just give up on it while you still can."

Amber's lashes fluttered. Deep down, she felt glee.

At The Millennium, no one dared to be so impolite toward Jameson. However, Remy didn't give a shit. He was Justin's subordinate, so Justin was the only one he had to obey.

The feigned expression on Jameson's face was starting to disappear. The knuckles on his hand gripping the wine glass had also whitened.

Even so, Jameson refrained from doing anything untoward. He smiled and replied casually, "Mr. Lexington, the reason we can meet again tonight is because Mr. Justin is in agreement with my plans. All you need to do is to cooperate with me. Plus, I never said that that young lady was my target. She is just a decoy.

"I'm aware that the previous task was too simple. It was not a challenge for you. Apologies for wasting your talent.
