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.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
