Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2155

"It doesn't matter where I go. I'd rather die than run and hide like a coward," Jameson declared. He didn't need anyone to understand him.

Jameson no longer sought Alyssa's forgiveness. Since she couldn't forgive him, he might as well become a villain she'd never forget.

…

After everything, Amber returned to Kontina, where she and Jameson had met. She was back in the manor where she used to live. Nothing had changed except her.

Battered, bruised, and emotionally numb, she felt like she was living in a dream.

Amber was confined to the manor for over a week. But she didn't idle her time away. Instead, she secretly searched the manor for the evidence Carl had hidden of Jameson's crimes.

Carl didn't have his guard up against her. With no restrictions on her access to the study, she explored every corner, even searching Carl's computer. Yet, she found nothing.

One evening, after showering, Amber sat at her vanity, combing her dark, silky hair, when a helper called from outside. "Ms. Altman?"

With a cold gaze, Amber asked, "What is it?"

"Mr. Moses is back. He wants you in the study."

Amber looked at her pale, gaunt reflection, tightening her grip on the comb until the teeth left red marks on her fingers. She then wrapped her robe around her tightly and slowly got to her feet.

…

"Everything should be fine since it's been dealt with, right? But what are you doing?"

"Kontina is no longer safe, Amber. We need to leave immediately," Carl declared. He reached into his shirt and pulled out a cross necklace.

Amber recognized the cross. However, she never imagined it hid a USB flash drive.

Carl plugged the USB into his computer and started working quickly, seemingly transferring or organizing something.

Amber stared at him, her heart racing. She finally understood why her search was fruitless. Carl had carried the evidence with him all along. He was incredibly cautious.

"The authorities in Cyrris are working with Kontina's police to apprehend Mr. Schmidt. We can't hide after tonight's events; the police will be onto us soon," Carl said, his eyes fixed on Amber. "We need to leave here as soon as possible. Mr. Schmidt won't be able to hold out much longer!"
