Can't Win Me Back

Chapter 2212

Everyone in the room was astounded by Jasper's sudden proposition.

"Mr. Beckett's hunch is spot on. Ms. Alyssa could very well be on Rose Island!" Amber's eyes sparkled with hope. She chimed in, I remember overhearing Carl mention that Jameson

bought an island. He was obsessed with it, always vacationing and relaxing there.

"I didn't think much of it back then, Jameson owns so many properties that an island seemed trivial. But now that I think of it, it feels suspicious.

"If it was just another island, why would he care so much about it, checking on it personally so often? This isn't like him at all. He's probably been planning this for a while. That island must be his last hideout!"

If someone else had said that, others might have doubted it. But, as Jameson's former trusted subordinate, Amber's theory was plausible.

'We'll leave now. I'll pilot the helicopter myself to get us to the island! Jasper's heart pounded like stormy waves crashing against his chest.

His eyes were bloodshot as he holstered his gun, grabbed his phone and gear, and headed for the door. But Cyrus and Liam blocked his way.

"No, you can't go!" Liam extended his arms. "A typhoon has reached Kontina's coastal areas. Port operations and flights will be suspended for three days starting tonight. If you fly the helicopter now, you'll be flying to your death!"

The redness in Jasper's eyes didn't subside. In that case, I'll take a boat out to sea!"

Cyrus became so anxious that he swore. "Isn't that the fucking same thing? Don't you lose yourself before we even find Lyse.

"We know that you're distressed, but stay calm for now. So many days have passed. If anything were to have happened to Lyse, it would've happened a long time ago. These three days won't make a difference.

"But if you go out now, there's a 99% chance you'll end up in an accident. We can't afford to lose any more family members!"

Cyrus voice trembled, and by the end, his eyes were red, his words barely making it out.

*You said 99%. That leaves 1%." Jasper was on the edge, the pain in his chest making his throat bum. "As long as there's a chance, I'll take it, even if it means risking my life!*

He was naturally stubborn, and no one could convince him otherwise. The only person who could wasn't there, and he was teetering on the brink.

Jonah, eyes filled with worry, said, 'Jasper, listen to us. Just wait a little longer.

"Wait? Almost half a month has passed. Now that we've finally gotten a lead on Lyse's whereabouts, you're actually asking me to wait?"

Jasper's broad shoulders shook. He roared, "What if we wait three days and Jameson suddenly snaps and hurts Lyse? What if he catches wind of our plans and moves her? The

world is vast. Where would I find her then?

Everyone fell silent. They understood his reasoning, but they were powerless against a force of nature.

"I'll go with you." Axel stepped forward, fixing his eyes on Jasper's pale face. He smiled that familiar, striking smile. We're fellow alumni. Who else would go with you if not me? Count me in!"

Jasper's eyes welled up. "Axel...

Amber looked at Axel from behind, her eyes filled with admiration, awe, and deep affection. But she was worried too.

She had lived in Kontina for years. The typhoons there were deadly. One wrong move, and they could all be dead.

"Damn it... What sort of logic is that? I'm a police officer. If there are any dangers, I should be the one leading the charge. Count me in tool" Cyrus stepped forward, patting his chest.

When the younger siblings weren't being rational, the older brothers shouldn't follow suit. Jonah and Liam were still strongly against them going out to sea tonight.

"Jasper, Axel." Jeremy walked over with a grave look on his face. His voice was calm as he advised, "We know we can't stop you from going.

'I've checked with the Meteorological Bureau. The typhoon's eye will be at 2:00 am and will last for two hours. The weather will improve during that time, and the sea will be calmer. If the few of you still insist, you should all head out in the early morning.

'It's a four-hour boat ride to Rose Island. Flying would be risky. For one, it could attract too much attention when you arrive. Secondly, Jameson might notice, putting you all in even more danger. We don't know if he has heavy weaponry with him.

"As for the rest, I advise against coming along. We only have two hours. If the weather changes, you could be stranded at sea, stuck in a deadly situation.Cóntent belongs to NovélDráma. Org

'Jasper, Axel, when you get to the island, don't act rashly. Observe the area first, see if Lyse is really there. Stay in constant contact with us. We'll send reinforcements as quickly as possible."

It was no surprise Jeremy was the country's president. He was calm, rational, and thorough- qualities not many possess.

Truthfully, Jasper had considered everything Jeremy said. That was why he wanted to quietly infiltrate the island and find Alyssa.

If too many people were mobilized, they might alarm Jameson. He was terrified of that madman going into a frenzy and harming Alyssa.

*Jasper, Axel, get ready to go out to sea." Jonah swallowed hard. He approached them, hugging Axel and Jasper. "But promise us you'll both come back safe!"Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
