Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2384

Xavier approached Cyrus hastily, his smile stretching from ear to ear when he saw someone from the Taylor family.

"Are you here to see Mr. Beckett? Come upstairs with us!" he invited in an especially friendly manner.

"No need for that," Cyrus replied, his expression stern. He continued formally, "We are here to see Mr. Beckett. We need him to come back to the station to cooperate with our investigation."

By this time, a crowd of Beckett Group's employees had gathered. They all heard Cyrus clearly. He had used the word "cooperate", not "assist". One word made all the difference.

Xavier's mind raced. He instantly lowered his voice and pleaded, "Chief Taylor, this doesn't look good with so many people watching. Can we continue our conversation upstairs?"

Cyrus knitted his brows tightly.

He was extremely well-versed in the procedures.

But this time, Jasper was the person he was taking away personally—the man who almost became his brother-in-law, the one who had risked his life repeatedly for Alyssa's sake.

He hesitated for the very first time.

"I'll go with you people." Jasper walked toward him, looking completely indifferent. He met Cyrus' eyes with a calm, steady gaze.

Cyrus' lips turned pale. An extremely conflicted look filled his eyes, and he couldn't explain the heavy weight pressing on his chest.

Just as two police officers moved toward Jasper, Javier stormed in with Rory and a group of the corporation's top executives.

"You officers are being too reckless! Don't you know where you are?" Javier erupted in rage upon seeing someone from the Taylor family causing trouble. He bellowed, "You've brought a team to take Jasper away for questioning in public.

"He is the president of Beckett Group! Have you considered how this will affect my son's reputation and our corporation? Are you going to be responsible for our losses?

"Mr. Odom, get Beckett Group's legal team here immediately! I will not let this go. You are not allowed to take Jasper away like this!"
