Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 767

Chapter 767 

Alyssa and Miley heard Colene’s muffled shouts from the horse’s back, followed by a chorus of laughter. 

Speechless, Alyssa said, “Well, I don’t mind, as long as Colene’s happy.” 

Miley slowly sat on the couch and looked hesitant to speak. Alyssa sat by her side and took her arm.” Miley, you must have something to discuss with me when you knock on my door this late. Is it related to 

Jameson?” 

“I remember he visited our home when he was younger. You seemed close to him,” Miley said flatly. 

“Yes. We were classmates in elementary school,” Alyssa reminisced. “I fended off the class bullies for 

him, and he started sticking around me because he was grateful. 

“I didn’t have many friends in the class due to my family background. Since everyone kept their distance, I 

had no choice but to be friends with Jameson. 

“To be honest, it was a happy time in my childhood. Later, Jameson went to Kontina with his mom, and 

we lost contact for 15 years.” 

“So, he’s practically a stranger after all these years,” remarked Miley knowingly. 

“Exactly. I couldn’t even recognize him at first. When he was younger, he looked fair and somewhat 

feminine. Now, he’s a tall, handsome guy.” 

“Between Jasper and Jameson, who’s hotter?” Miley playfully winked at Alyssa. 

“Miley, did Jasper bribe you or something? Why do you keep bringing him up? It’s such a mood dampener, 

grumbled Alyssa, who pouted in frustration. 

“Look, Lyse, I’m not against you dating anyone. Victor Schmidt is Dad’s good friend, so I’m sure his son 

will not treat you poorly. It’s just that…” Miley’s voice trailed off. She looked a little worried when she 

recalled Jameson’s profile that her assistant had found. 

She explained, “Jameson Schmidt is not what he seems. I secretly looked into his background. He runs a 

huge, complex business in Kontina’ that spans many industries. 

“Kontina’s society is not as simple as Cyrris’. It’s hard to tackle the organized crime and drug trade. The politicians and businessmen there are corrupt, and they work with each other. Jeremy’s first task when in 

power is to address the illegal drug trade and corruption.” 

Alyssa’s heart leaped to her throat. “Wow, life is going to be tough for you and Jeremy!” 

“Stop changing the topic,” Miley reminded her. “Given the scale of Jameson’s business in Kontina, it’s 

highly likely that he’s involved in organized crime and gangs. 

“I even heard that he was once discreetly called in by the prosecution for interrogation over his 

involvement in drugs but was released due to a lack of evidence.” 

“What did you say?” Alyssa was shocked. 

“He’s safe now because there’s no concrete evidence, but there’s no smoke without fire. He must have 

been a top suspect if the police looked into him. 

“Besides, the prosecutor who interrogated him was Jeremy’s student. That fellow is an upright and 

honest character. He would never be bribed and wouldn’t accuse anyone without evidence.” 

Miley clasped Alyssa’s hands worriedly. “Lyse, you can be friends with him, but don’t be too involved with 

a dangerous man like him.”
