Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 2385

Rio approached Jasper and confidently flashed out the arrest warrant, deliberately raising his voice so everyone present could hear.

"Mr. Jasper Beckett, you are suspected of drug abuse. Please come with us!"

The moment he spoke, it was as if the skies had crashed down, catching everyone completely off guard.

Jasper raised his eyebrows, his temples throbbing.

"Drug abuse... You're claiming Jasper took drugs? That's slander!" Javier's face turned pale with shock.

Xavier's head buzzed. He almost passed out upon hearing Rio's accusation.

Rio stated calmly, "We will not arrest anyone without proof."

Cyrus gritted his teeth in anger, clenching his hands into fists. He would never believe that Jasper would do drugs! Yet, he had no way to involve himself in the case. He couldn't prove Jasper's innocence, no matter how much he wanted to.

The Beckett Group employees present had heard Rio's words. Their jaws dropped, and they began chattering among themselves.

Within an hour, news of Jasper's arrest for drug abuse had spread throughout the entire corporation and across Solana City.

"Xavier, stay back and ensure the corporation continues to operate normally," Jasper instructed.

Taking a step forward with poise, his broad back exuding calmness, Jasper said, "I will give you my full cooperation. Let's go."

Alyssa was leading KS Group's senior executives in a meeting in the corporate conference room.

Her hair was down, and her bright red lips complemented her smart black suit as she stood on stage, presenting her proposal eloquently.

Each of the senior executives below listened intently, taking their own notes. Despite her youth, Alyssa was firm and steady, commanding the same presence Winston had during the peak of his career, inspiring great admiration.

At a critical moment during the meeting, Sean's urgent voice came through Alyssa's Bluetooth earphones.

"Ms. Alyssa, I have bad news! Mr. Beckett is suspected of drug abuse and has been arrested by the police for questioning."

A loud thud sounded.

Alyssa held her breath as her laser pointer fell to the ground. The executives exchanged meaningful glances. She bent down elegantly, picking up the pen with trembling hands, then straightened her back stiffly. Though a smile remained on her face, her eyes had turned completely red.

"Let's continue," she said.

An hour later, Alyssa and Sean returned to the president's office.

"How did this happen?" Unable to contain her emotions, she grabbed a coffee mug and hurled it against the wall in fury.

Sean could see Alyssa was truly enraged.

"Mr. Cyrus was concerned about interfering with your work, so he called me to explain the situation. Given the urgency, I informed you immediately," Sean explained.

With a grim expression, he continued in a low voice, "Mr. Cyrus has been removed from the case and cannot intervene. According to my sources, Mr. Jasper is already at the police station. They will be testing his urine or his hair for drugs."

Alyssa pressed her hand to her forehead, gritting her teeth. "The medication Jasper has been taking contains banned components. Even if he didn't do drugs, the test results could be used to accuse him of being a drug addict."

She looked at Sean intensely. "Do you understand what this means?"

Sean started to speak but hesitated.

"It means the position of Beckett Group's president-which Jasper has fought so hard to obtain-will likely be handed to someone else."
