Can't Win Me Back

Chapter 2145



"We... We are just escorts at The Millennium. We don't know anything... Please don't kill us!" Despite being in the face of two remarkably charming men, the two female escorts were on the brink of tears in fright.

In a deep voice, Jasper questioned, "Why is The Millennium closed? Why are you two the only ones left? Where'd everyone go?"

"We don't know the details," stammered the bolder of the two, pushing the other woman behind her for protection. "It's an internal matter. We're just lowly escorts."

The woman in back added in a meek voice, "C-Carl dismissed everyone overnight. He gave us severance pay and told us to leave. The Millennium is no more. As for the rest, we have no idea..."This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Jasper's pupils constricted. A cold sweat slicked his skin. They hadn't given their game away; Jameson had abandoned everything in Solana City. He had fled the city, likely to escape punishment for his crimes "What about Amber? Where is she?" Axel shouted, glaring at them.

The two women panicked. They held on to one another. "We don't know. Amber left yesterday."

Axel roared, "Where did she go?"

"We truly have no idea where she went! But that night, I overheard Carl telling his subordinate that he had proposed to Amber, and she agreed to marry him. Maybe they went overseas to get married." Jasper's eyes widened in shock. "They're getting married?"

A wave of dizziness washed over Axel. Blood pounded in his chest, making him feel feverish and chilled at the same time. A storm of emotions raged within him.

He couldn't believe Amber's farewell was because she was going to marry someone else. "That's impossible... It's impossible! Why would Amber marry that scum?"

Axel slammed his fist against the wall repeatedly until his knuckles were swollen and bloodied.

"Don't do that, Axel!" Jasper rushed forward to restrain him, his own heart heavy with sorrow.

Just then, Cyrus arrived with his colleagues.

Axel, usually unflappable even in dire situations, was on the verge of breaking down. Cyrus exchanged a helpless look with Jasper, his concern evident.

"Cyrus, these two women are escorts who worked for Carl at The Millennium. Take them in for questioning. We might get some valuable information," Jasper instructed. "However," he added, placing a comforting hand on Axel's shoulder, "I believe they're victims too. Please handle them with discretion, Cyrus."

Cyrus nodded firmly. "Of course."

"We also need to monitor all major traffic

James in the city immediately.

The moment we find any trace of Jameson, we need to contain him. We can't let him leave Solana City!"

"It's too late, Jasper," Cyrus sighed, his anger evident as he slammed his fist against the wall. "I already thought of that. Before coming here, I had my men investigate. They discovered Jameson had boarded his private plane and left Solana City three hours ago. He's probably out of the country by now."

"Jasper's chest tightened. "Were you able to track where he went?"

"I'm just a police officer. That's beyond my authority. Besides, even if I could, it wouldn't be legal. We only have evidence against Carl so far. Not enough to arrest Jameson. Nicholas' statement alone isn't enough!"

They were back to square one. Just as they thought they'd checkmated their opponent, a new obstacle emerged, blocking their path.

Lost in thought, Jasper didn't notice his phone ringing.
