Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue
Chapter 1673

Jonah and Alyssa stared straight at Jasper. Then, they exclaimed simultaneously, "Are yousuggesting that Jameson is behind this?"

Jameson's name had now become synonymous with all manner of nefarious deeds.

In a helpless tone, Jasper said, "I'm sorry. Maybe I am the one who's being too sensitive about thisperson. No matter what happens with the Schmidts, I am always able to think of how it can berelated to him."

"There's nothing wrong with what you were thinking, Jasper.”

Alyssa had a soft look in her eyes. She linked arms with him to give him her support. "Didn't I say sothe last time? Jamiper is the cause of everything bad that happens.

"Moreover, I think that your analysis makes a lot of sense. The three Schmidt siblings areboneheads. The three of them combined would still not be more scheming than Jamiper. Otherwise,they wouldn't have met such terrible ends.”

Jasper took note of how pink Alyssa's cheeks were. He smiled at her lovingly.

"Jasper's analysis isn't unreasonable." Jonah had a glum look in his eyes.

He continued, "Actually, I have been investigating his background in secret. His businesses inKontina are extremely dirty. But that's still not the main point. The main point is that he hassufficient power and wealth to manipulate elections. With this kind of capability, he could very wellgo against the tycoons.

"Furthermore, he used to be a son whom the Schmidts had abandoned. He was not grounded withthem, so he and his sickly mother had to depend on one another.

"So someone is definitely pulling the strings for him. That somebody supported him every step ofthe way until where he is now. He even helped him return to Solana City to seize power.

"Not only that, he is essentially playing dumb at the Schmidt Group. Whenever the obstacles aheadof him collapse, he shows his true colors.”

Alyssa furrowed her brows and nodded. "That's right. Jameson has far more power than Josh, thepresident. He has always been feigning ignorance.”

"Right now, his one and only obstacle is Josh."

Jasper’s eyes lit up brightly. "Then, in actual fact, it is highly probable that Jameson was the one whoobtained those photos.”

Jonah pursed his lips. He tried to hold back the anger that was surging within him.

"After he got his hands on the photographs, he didn't want to taint his own hands. So, he triedusing Josh to reveal the photos instead. In this way, he wouldn't be implicated if anyone looked intoit. He could then just watch from the sidelines.”

Jasper scoffed. Through gritted teeth, he said, "What a way to get someone else to do his dirtywork. Such viciousness is typical of him."

"He has already removed Josh from his position and made him lose Victor's trust. Josh has alreadybeen chased out of the Schmidt Group's headquarters.”

Alyssa leaned on Jasper. She looked into his eyes and asked, "Couldn't he have just gotten anyoneto make the exposé? Why did he have to give this opportunity to Josh?

"If I were Josh, I would see this as a chance to compete with my rival. I would definitely use that as abargaining chip to negotiate with Victor. What good could come out of this for Jamiper? Wouldn'the be causing trouble for himself by bringing the dead back to life?"

Jasper smiled. In a soft voice, he answered, "You're too nice, Lyse. Perhaps it's because you and yoursiblings love each other. Your family is a harmonious one too. So, you have been too sheltered. I'msaying that as a good thing.”

Jonah raised his brows. He felt tickled.

Jasper was indeed blinded by love. Jonah couldn't believe that he had just described Alyssa assomeone nice.

Maybe it was true. After all, Alyssa was like an angel when she was being kind. However, whenevershe wanted to be savage, she would be no different than a wicked witch.

Jasper should take his time to replace out.

"However, you should have heard of the saying that it's a dog-eat-dog world, even in families.Business rivalry and familial strife are like invisible blades. Cut-throat brotherly feuds arecommonplace.”

The expression on Jasper's face was icy. "How could Jameson be satisfied with just removing Joshfrom his position? What he wants is to eliminate Josh in such a way that he would never have thechance to rise again.”

"So... You're saying that the incident with Jonah and Jul is just bait?"

Alyssa's mind was racing. Everything became clear to her after Jasper's explanation.

Her eyes turned red. "He already knew that we would be able to link that incident with Josh. Hethinks that we will definitely not let him go. So, he wants to make use of us to get rid of Josh. In thisway, we would be helping to get rid of this last thorn in his side?"

Jasper nodded slightly. "You're a smart one, Lyse."

"Damn it! That son of bitch!"

Alyssa was furious. She bent down to pick up a stone and hurled it at a tree trunk. "Does he thinkthat he's God? Does he think that everyone is within his control and that he can manipulate anyoneas he wishes?

"Great. That's just great. I shall show him what it's like to be caught in the crossfire! I will make himburn in hell!"

Upon hearing that, Jasper and Jonah broke into a smile. The tension in the air eased up a little."Lyse, you and Jasper have to get to the bottom of the exposé of Dad's sickness. You have toavenge Dad."

Jonah went silent for a few moments. A dark look flashed across his face. "But about Julien and I,let's just leave it as it is.

"It's no longer important whether I get my revenge or not. Neither do I care about power orreputation nor what others think about our relationship."
