Can't Win Me Back

Alyssa stared at Jameson in disbelief. She could feel her heart pounding against her ribcage.

Indeed, her scheme was flawless. Not only did she get Jameson arrested, but she had removed herself from the situation completely. She also managed to protect those involved in this so that their lives weren't in danger.

Even so, she had still fallen short.

She never accounted for the possibility that Jameson was ill and that he was really taking medications to cover up his illness!

"Mr. Schmidt, even though you're on bail, you will need to wear an ankle monitor and keep us updated on your movements 24/7."

The officer opened the door to Jameson's cell. With a calm expression, he walked out of the room.

He stopped in his tracks when he brushed past Alyssa. In a gentle voice, he said by her ear, "Whatever it is, thank you for coming to see me, Lyse. This is the most unforgettable birthday of all these years." Following that, everyone from Schmidt Group stormed out.

Alyssa was left standing stiffly at the same spot. She had gone pale, and her hands were clenched into tight fists.

Jameson was bailed out successfully. Not only that, he stood at the entrance to the station with a haggard look on his face while he answered questions from the reporters.

"Due to my sickness, I need to take medications to keep my condition under control. Thus, the medications caused my body to suffer from side effects, and my urinalysis came back positive for drugs.

"I would like to sincerely apologize for troubling the authorities and overusing the public's resources. Sorry for worrying everyone."

After saying that, he gave a firm nod toward the cameras with a bleak look on his face. He was a leader of a corporation with a position of superiority. Even so, he swallowed his pride to admit to a mistake, which, strictly speaking, wasn't his.

Who wouldn't be moved to witness his attitude and broad-mindedness in such a circumstance?

Furthermore, Jameson had a

graceful and elegant appearance. He

was born with a perfect and unique disguise. His outstanding acting

skills allowed him to give a convincing performance as an innocent man who had been framed and set up.

"Mr. Schmidt! Previously, there was news about what they found in your hospital room. It was the new kind of illegal drug that took Solana City by storm previously. What do you have to say about that?" Carl looked irate. He spoke up on Jameson's behalf on the spot.

"Someone had secretly fabricated the evidence framed Mr. Schmidt, and delivered a blow to Schmidt Group! We have also made a report to the police about this. The authorities have officially opened a case to start their investigation. They will definitely find the person

behind this and clear Mr. Schmidt's

name!"

The media had initially rushed over here to see Jameson make a joke out of himself. At this moment, they were swayed and filled with injustice.

The public's sentiments had taken a complete turn overnight!

Jason stayed back to settle the remaining business. Under Carl's protection, Jameson got into the top-end Bentley model.

"Where would you like to go, Mr. Schmidt?" Carl asked in a concerned voice.

"Go to The Millennium. I'll rest there for a night." Jameson tilted his head back in extreme physical exhaustion. He removed his gold-framed glasses and massaged his throbbing forehead.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

After all that interrogation, his charming face looked even manlier than before. "I'll go to Schmidt Group tomorrow morning. I'm calling for an emergency board meeting.

"Schmidt Group has been turned upside down these past couple of days. The people won't be assured if I don't show up."

"But that's too tiring for you, Mr. Schmidt! You haven't even fully recovered yet. Overexertion is no small matter!" Carl felt extremely troubled and anguished.

"I don't have a choice. I always have to clean up whenever Lyse causes small troubles like this." Jameson smiled tenderly.

Surprisingly, there wasn't a single bit of resentment in him. There was even a hint of sweetness in his smile.

"Mr. Schmidt, I shall say this even if you tell me off or punish me. Ms. Alyssa... She went really overboard with her setup this time!"

In an indignant tone, Carl continued,

"You could very likely end up

convicted if this matter isn't handled properly. What happens to Schmidt Group if its leader's behind bars? Also, how would you explain it to Mr. Justin?"
