Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2567

A commotion erupted in the room the moment Justin was escorted out.

"What in the world is going on, Mr. Javier? Why did the police come for Mr. Justin?"

"Mr. Dutton's death couldn't possibly have anything to do with him, could it?"

"The president of Beckett Group was taken away in public! If this gets out, it'll seriously damage the company's reputation!"

At a critical moment like this, the board members were concerned only with the corporation's interests.

That was only natural. After all, those interests were tied directly to their own.

"That's enough, everyone. There's no need to panic." Though Javier's thoughts were in turmoil, he forced himself to remain composed. "Just as Chief Taylor said, they only need Justin to assist with the investigation. He's not being treated as a suspect. After all, the deceased was his biological uncle.

"This meeting is adjourned for now. We'll reconvene at a later date. Please wait for my notice."

Even though Justin hadn't been handcuffed and was merely taken in for questioning, Cyrus had deliberately arranged for two police vehicles to be parked side by side at the entrance of Beckett Group's headquarters.

His intent was obvious—to draw attention and stir public speculation.

With a calm smile, Justin stepped into the police car with measured elegance. Yet inwardly, he felt nothing of the sort.

He knew full well that Jasper and the others had likely instructed Cyrus to bring him in today. They might know about Zachary's death, but without concrete evidence, they couldn't prove he was behind it.

Still, they could manipulate public opinion, dragging him into the center of a brewing storm.

Speculation, criticism, and accusations… words could be weapons. Not lethal, but persistent—clinging to him like glue, restricting his every move. Worse still, his position within the company could begin to waver under the pressure.

As expected, the news spread like wildfire the moment he was taken away. Within hours, headlines about the president of Beckett Group being summoned by the police flooded social media.
