Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2103

Sean pushed thoughts of Tatiana aside temporarily, refocusing on work.

"Since our trip to Bernardia until now, Chief Novak hadn't gone home at all. He has been at the station the whole time. Even if he had things to buy, he'd get his subordinates to go out and buy them for him. He seems to be almost cutting himself off from the world."

The look in Alyssa's eyes deepened. "Didn't he visit his wife?"

"No, he didn't. Not even once."

Sean frowned in disbelief. "The more I think about it, the stranger it feels."

Alyssa spun her pen nimbly, her eyes dark. "It's not strange. Chief Novak is an exceptionally alert man. I'm sure he has realized the danger he's in. Acting rashly could be fatal."

Sean was dumbfounded. "Ms. Alyssa, do you mean—"

"I wouldn't be surprised if Jamiper is prepared to take him down," Alyssa interrupted, her grip tightening on the pen until her knuckles whitened. "There's also a chance Chief Novak dodged an attempt already, prompting his extra precautions and staying shut in.

"The police station is the safest place for him. No matter how vicious Jameson is, he wouldn't dare send people to strike him there. It would be like walking right into a trap."

Sean's heart sank. "That means Jameson is trying to silence him for good! We can't let anything happen to Chief Novak, Ms. Alyssa. He's our only hope of taking Jameson down!"

"But if he keeps hiding like that, Jamiper can't get to him, and we won't achieve a breakthrough through either."

She formed her fingers into a triangle under her chin, her gaze dull. "We need to get Chief Novak out of the station."

Sean scratched his head in confusion. "But Ms. Alyssa, won't we be creating an opportunity for Jamiper by doing that?"

"He and I have the same starting point. He may see an opportunity, but so will I." The look in Alyssa's eyes turned from cold to fiery. She smiled warmly, "Moreover, I trust Jasper. No matter how tiny a chance, he will grab onto it firmly."
