Can't Win Me Back

Chapter 2192

A cold glint flickered in Jameson's eyes, masking the savage fury unleashed by the pain and desperation as his wound was torn open.

*Lyse... I know you despise me, but you can't slander me like this..."

"I slandered you? Jameson, you've really gone off the deep end. You dared to do such a thing but don't have the guts to admit to it?"

Alyssa stared straight at his pale and gloomy face. There wasn't any fear within her, only a heart-wrenching resentment. "Mrs. Schmidt looked like she was having an episode because of what I said, but I already felt something was off when she was seizing and foaming at the mouth.

"In the past, you've said that your mother's heart was weak. But when I checked on her eyes and pulse at the time, she wasn't presenting with symptoms of a heart attack, let alone a seizure.

'Subsequently, red spots started to form on her skin. Pairing all that with the way you're reacting right now, I have reason to believe that you injected Mrs. Schmidt with some poisonous substance beforehand. She was poisoned to death!"

Jameson's hand on her waist started to tense up. The veins on his hands popped, and a menacing gleam presented itself in his eyes.

'Jameson... hasn't it been enough that you've hurt and killed so many? You even used and murdered your own mother? How could you do that.."

"Lyse, do you know that your smarts are both your strength and weakness?" Jameson smiled despite having reddened eyes, making his face look even more twisted and despondent than if he were to cry.

"How could I have done that? Others may not understand me, but you do, don't you?"

Jameson grabbed Alyssa by the chin, squeezing her so hard that it seemed like he wanted to crush her bones. "It was all because of you... All because of you!" Jameson's voice, ragged and raw, erupted from him, a mutilated sound filled with anguish.

To outsiders, he was inhumane and evil. But to Alyssa, he had never raised his voice-not once in all the years they'd known each other. Yet now, love and hate, despair and rage, melded into a twisted knot inside him.

Suppressed for too long, it festered, rotted, devoured him like maggots feasting on decayed flesh. He had become a breeding ground for sin, and when he finally wanted to turn back, it was already too late. He was a monster-his humanity lost.

He had lost all control, and it was too late for any regrets. Content belong to NôvelDráma. Org.

"My mother... Even if I hadn't done it, she didn't have long to live. She would've suffered horribly. I just helped her avoid that pain."

His burning gaze softened, and Jameson leaned close to Alyssa's ear, brushing his trembling lips against her skin. "Would you have gotten into the helicopter so willingly if I hadn't? It would've been harder to bring you here. I only had one shot; I couldn't fail.

"So, I had my mother help me. Although she's gone, I think... Even if she knew about my motives, she would definitely, without a doubt, forgive me for the things I did to her because she loved me, her only son."

Agony surged within.

Even though Alyssa wasn't expressing her sadness on her face, tears streamed down her cheeks.

"What exactly in the world... made you like this? You weren't like this 15 years ago..."

The Jimmy from 15 years ago has died a long time ago."

With a twisted smile on his face, Jameson wrapped his arms tightly around Alyssa. Without him even realizing it,

his face was also covered in tears. "But the Jimmy who loves you will never die."

The news about Jameson abducting Alyssa was hidden successfully from her relatives in Cyrris. Even so, they didn't manage to hide it from Axel.

Along with Amber, Axel rushed to get to the presidential office from the hospital overnight.

Amber didn't dare to say a word along the way. She simply held Axel gently in her arms as she soothed his trembling back patiently to comfort him.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
