Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2423

With a piercing gaze, Sheryl glared at Remy, who stood in front of her car with an air of frigidity around him.

The temptation to ram her car into the crestfallen man was almost irresistible, but she didn't dare. Remy was Justin's right-hand man, and even her audacity had limits.

Instead, Sheryl pulled her white coat snugly around her, stepped out of the car with feigned composure, and strode toward him.

Hostility crackled between them as their eyes locked.

Sheryl broke the silence. "Remy, is there nothing you'd like to update me about?" she asked with a sinister look in her eyes.

Stiffly, Remy asked, "Where did you take that woman?"

"How shameless of you to question me. Mr. Justin was wise to send me as backup. Otherwise, Amber would have escaped without a trace!"

Gritting her teeth, Sheryl took a step closer to Remy. "Is this how you handle tasks entrusted by Mr. Justin? The unstoppable Remy, brought to his knees by a wild brat? Or did you let her go intentionally? Are you planning to betray Mr. Justin?"

Remy's gloved hands curled into fists, his jaw tightening. The word betray hit harder than he cared to admit. He had never entertained such a thought, yet Sheryl's accusation stirred something deep within him.

Though he stood tall and rigid, her words left a crack in his resolve.

Sheryl, emboldened, reached for his collar, but Remy stepped back, causing her to lurch forward and stumble awkwardly.

Humiliated, she snarled, "Remy, I'm warning you—don't you dare try anything funny. This worthless life of yours exists only because of Mr. Justin. If not for his mercy, the sharks would've devoured you, and your corpse would've rotted on the shore!

"So, know your place. Be Mr. Justin's loyal dog. Should you dare to stray, I'll make sure your end is worse than being shark bait!"
