Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2358

The massive, opulent gates creaked open slowly as Remy steered the luxury car into the Sedonian fortress, a relic from the Middle Ages, with casual ease.

After parking, both Remy and Sheryl got out of the car and attended to Justin.

As Justin emerged from the vehicle, his expression remained impassive, but his eyes were chillingly dark, reflecting an intensity he kept tightly in check.

His stride was steady, exuding an air of authority, eerily reminiscent of Jasper's presence.

He was only able to appear so because he got Sheryl to inject a dose of adrenaline before he got out of the car. This shot was one that RC Biotechnology Research Institute had recently developed.

His only purpose was to no longer look like an invalid before that man. He had to make himself presentable.

"This is a private residence. Please hold on for a moment."

This place was heavily guarded at the door. Bodyguards wearing suits and white gloves stopped them in their tracks.

With a vicious look in his eyes, Justin curled his lips into a condescending smirk. Without a word, he reached into his chest pocket and withdrew a golden-edged card, presenting it to the bodyguards.

The two bodyguards lowered their heads to examine the card. Their expressions shifted dramatically as they immediately bowed low. "Welcome, sir! This way, please."

The change in demeanor was jarring—just moments before, they had been cold, and now they were deeply respectful. Sheryl couldn't suppress her smile, following Justin with curiosity bubbling inside her.

She couldn't help but glance at the card. It was a striking, gold-colored poker card, its surface etched with intricate designs and adorned with gleaming rubies. The King of Hearts was printed on it in bold relief.

An attendant led them deeper into the fortress.

Remy was expressionless the whole time, while Sheryl's eyes darted everywhere silently.

Deep down, she was in absolute awe of the extravagance of the building's interior design. At the same time, she tried her best to conceal her emotions as she did not want to bring about embarrassment to Justin through her callow reactions.

Growing up, she had felt the same awe when Sophia brought her in and out of Seaview Manor. When she later became Justin's follower, she had thought his luxurious Wiktorian house in Mosgravia was the height of opulence. But this place was on an entirely different level.
