Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 2062

The news of Aidan's suicide sent shockwaves through Solana City.

Upon receiving the news, Alyssa hurried to Solana City with Mandy. Jasper followed them, fearing someone would hurt Mandy during this sensitive period.

"Cyrus told me the police found what seems to be a suicide note from Aidan in his coat jacket. It mentioned remorse for his actions and letting his grandfather and father down," Alyssa shared in her villa. Meanwhile, Jasper took it upon himself to warm two glasses of milk. He handed one to Mandy and the other to Alyssa.

"This all happened so suddenly. Why... How..." Mandy trailed off, her voice thick with disbelief.

It was one bad blow after another, and it all happened within a night. Mandy, a woman known for her composure, was starting to unravel.

"I watched Aidan grow up. He was always so competitive. They raised and groomed him to be the successor. This must have been a crushing weight on him-the biggest sin he'd ever committed. Aidan must have felt completely cornered and saw no alternative but to take his own life," Mandy choked out.

Regardless of their relationship, Aidan was someone she'd watched grow up. He'd always called her "Aunt Mandy" and leaned on her for support.

However, Alyssa sensed something amiss. She looked up at Jasper. "The police will analyze the handwriting, right? There might be something off about the note."

"Yes, I believe they will. Anyhow, the police are convinced it was suicide."

Jasper's eyes darkened as he continued, "The police interrogated Aidan again earlier, grilling him relentlessly. Then, he excused himself to use the restroom and jumped from a window along the hallway. It happened so fast that the officer guarding him failed to react in time. That officer has resigned from his position."

Mandy covered her mouth, despair etched on her face. Alyssa's expression remained grave.

Jasper pulled Alyssa close, gently stroking her arm. "Something feels wrong, doesn't it?"

"Yes." Alyssa took a deep breath and tightly held Jasper's hand. "Now, the entire country believes Aidan took his own life out of guilt. Consequently, Lovelace Group has been conveniently framed as the mastermind behind the human drug tests.

"On top of that, the public is vehemently condemning them. With Aidan gone, there's no one to testify against that. Jasper, do you think the true mastermind can finally rest easy now?" "Justice will prevail. Whoever is responsible for this will never escape this," Jasper declared firmly.

Suddenly, a pang of unease shot through Jasper's heart as Alyssa's words made him realize something. "Aidan's death leaves another person in grave danger. After all, this person holds the key to the most secrets after Aidan.

Cyrus called, interrupting their conversation. "Lyse, Jasper, Joseph had confessed to the police. However, there is a huge discrepancy between his statement and Aidan's. Joseph claims someone used Lovelace Group, and they were merely doing the person's dirty work.

"He swears someone provided Aidan with the drugs and that he had been manipulated and blindsighted. He also said no one knew his son better than he did. He insisted that Aidan wouldn't have the network or the guts for such a crime."

Confused, Mandy shook her hand. "Actually, I've always doubted that Aidan could pull off such a crime by himself. Joseph wouldn't have the brains for it either, and there's no need for us to risk using humans for drug testing. The government supports the Lovelace Group, and we don't have direct competitors in the country. So, there was never a need to take such a huge risk to rush drug development."

A silent exchange passed between Alyssa and Jasper. Their eyes locked in understanding-Aidan hadn't committed suicide; he'd been silenced by murder.

Someone had gotten leverage over him, blackmailing him to the point of desperation.

The usual cacophony of revelry was absent from The Millennium that night. However, the deserted atmosphere suited Jameson just fine.

His priorities lay elsewhere. The Millennium merely served as a front for him to network and pave the way for Justin. Once Justin succeeded, this place would outlive its usefulness.

"Is Amber behaving these days?" Jameson rasped, his voice rough, as he admired the parrots on the balcony.

"She has been behaving! I've had someone keeping an eye on her. She hasn't seen any clients lately; she just wanders The Millenium or stays holed up in her room. I've even tapped her phone, and she hasn't contacted anyone. You can rest easy," Carl reported, putting in a good word for Amber.

"She seems obedient," Jameson remarked, his eyes narrowing as he fiddled with the birdcage. "But the same can't be said for everyone, can it?"
