Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

The horse racing contestant was flattered and nodded hard. He looked at everyone seriously.
"I am a horse racing contestant representing the Lanchester Corporation. Our corporation's horses were placed opposite the KS
Group after they entered the stable. Our boss likes to stand in the horse's perspective and observe their daily lives. It is his
favorite pastime.
"So, my boss would install a small camera on the headgear of each horse. In this special circumstance today, our boss is afraid
something will happen to his beloved horse. So, he made sure to switch the camera to a higher resolution so that it can monitor
its surroundings better."
When everyone heard it, their eyes widened in shock as their mouth gaped.
Even Alyssa, who was rich with experience, was dumbfounded by what she heard.
She had seen cars that had dashboard cameras. It was the first time she heard of a camera on a horse.
She was perplexed at how she was drawn to getting to know him. What a remarkable man.
Max was hit hard. His ears were ringing as everything before him dimmed. He had always stayed unwavering in his principles.
Yet, he never thought he would lose to a horse.
"Mr. Horatio, the Taylors had never offended you in any way. Plus, I have never interacted with you before the race."
Alyssa's eyes sank. "You also understand what it means to go easy on someone who confesses their faults and give those who
refuse to admit to fault the punishment they deserve. I may have kept my life.

"But if I wasn't proficient in handling my horse and Blaze couldn't support herself, I would have been flung off her and be dead
without a complete body.
"Then, you will be accused of first-degree murder. Now, you have attempted murder. Plus, you have also committed vandalism
and animal abuse. You have committed these accounts. You should know your consequences."
Cold sweat broke on Max's back. The corner of his lips twitched uncontrollably.
"So, I hope you can think for yourself and tell us the person behind this. If you tell me the person who asked you to hurt me, the
KS Group will plea for a reduced sentence for you."
Logic could convince, and emotion could motivate. Alyssa had always been great at negotiation.
Zoe tried her best to maintain her composure. However, the legs underneath her skirt were trembling profusely. Her heart was
about to explode.
Max became silent. He looked at Zoe's direction with muddled vision.
Honestly, he wanted to glance at her once more.
He had witnessed Zoe growing up into the woman she was today. In his mind, she would always be an innocent and happy-go-
lucky girl. However, this innocent and happy-go-lucky girl was staring at him heartlessly. Her glare felt distant and threatening.
Max laughed wryly but silently. Then, he said through gritted teeth, "No one asked me to do it. Ms. Alyssa, I'm the one who wants
you dead. This had nothing to do with the Harpers.
"Who asked you to fight for Ms. Zoe's man? You deserve this! I hate myself for not thinking this through and being so careless as
to spare your life. But I never regretted doing it.

"Don't waste your time talking to me anymore. You can do whatever you please to me."
He was ready to sacrifice himself and carry this to his grave.
There was a lifeless look in Alyssa's eyes. However, she felt a chill in her heart. She knew Zoe was the culprit behind this. The
latter had conspired with Max to get rid of her.
The more she thought about it, the more she hated and was terrified of her.
"Okay, Mr. Horatio. I appreciate your honesty in admitting to these crimes. Everything you said was broadcast for the entire
country to hear.
"When we meet in court, this broadcast can't be overturned and will be presented in court." A small smile hung on Jasper's lips.
His voice was mocking and chilling.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
They had no clue what Jasper meant.
The Harpers were confused. They were like a machine that lost its signal, unable to respond to what happened.
Then, Preston's secretary screamed as if someone stepped on his tail.
"Mr. Harper! This is bad. Everything that happened earlier was publicly broadcast."
