Ch. 291..300

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 291-Liana was aware of the gossiping. Nonetheless, she lifted her chin like a graceful swan without any hint of anger.

The ladies could talk as much as they wanted. At the end of the day, they would look up to her as she started her amazing new life!

“Jasper, look!” Landon widened his eyeswhen he saw the trending topics on Twitter. He hurriedly showed his phone to Jasper.

The top trending hashtag,#engagement, was an eyesore to Jasper.

“I’m shell-shocked.” Stunned, Landonhissed in Jasper’s ear, “I thought you said you’d break up with Liana? Why did your stepmo m announce your engagement instead? You’re even on trending topics!

“Uncle Javier isn’t against the engagement, it seems. What’s going on? Are you still with her or not?” Jasper felt his ears buzzing. His body and fingers stiffened. Like a pulled bow, he was close to a breakdown.

All of a sudden, the screen that was filled with falling pink petals switched to total darkness.

“Huh? What’s wrong?” “Is there a power cut? Or is the screenbroken?” Amid the confusion, the screen lit up again, this time with a photo of a young girl. The girl was petite and all bones. Her hair was messy, and her outfit was ragged. Her face was stained with tears and snot. One couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

“Oh my god! Whose kid is that? Poor littlething!” “Is Ms. Gardner raising funds for charityat her party? I’ll make a donation—I’m into doing charity!” Liana and Sophia realized that something had gone wrong when they sensed the commotion in the audience. They spun around to look at the screen.

“W-What’s that?” Sophia was startled.

“Who’s that dirty-looking kid? Whywould that photo show up at my birthday party? Did the backstage staff play the wrong photo? Liana gaped at the girl in the photo in confusion.

Rosaline was the only one to turn pale. She shot up from her seat and pointed at the screen, howling, “What’s going on? Turn it off! Turn off the screen!” The people around Rosaline turned to her, shocked by her outburst. Even Javier Beckett and Andrew Gardner were puzzled by her unwarranted reaction to the screen display.

“Why turn it off?” a hoarse male voicerang out from the audience. Liana looked in the direction of the voice and almost screamed when she saw Curtis’ wicked face.

Liana’s dress was drenched in sweat. She couldn’t help but tremble from head to toe. Her expression froze up, unable to express any emotion.

Curtis took a few steps forward into a brightly lit spot in a thuggish manner. The hooligan immediately attracted all the attention.

“A family must be complete. You’reenjoying the high life here, dolled up and eating good, all while this poor child was starving and beaten up in a Mosgravian orphanage. Liana Gardner, don’t you ever feel bad for your daughter?”

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 292-Daughter? Her daughter?

Liana was shaking incessantly. Her temples throbbed, and her mind went blank.

Once pointed out, everyone could see the resemblance between her and the little girl.

“That’s impossible … Impossible!” shemumbled like she was put under a spell.

“Hah. How ridiculous!” Curtis stared ather pale face with a vile smile.”How could you call yourself a mother if you can’t even identify your daughter? A poor excuse of a mother!” The audience gasped. The revelation sent a ripple of shock and unease in the crowd. Half of the audience stared at Liana, who was losing it on the stage.

The other half was focused on Jasper, who clenched his jaw icily. The poor man just got cuckolded in public.

“Lia, what’s going on?” Sophia was closeto losing her composure. She tugged at Liana hard and hissed,”Who’s this guy, and how did he sneak in? What’s between you and him?” On the other hand, Rosaline lurched at Curtis in anger because she was terrified of being exposed.”You filthy thug! How dare you taint my daughter’s reputation?I won’t let this slide!” As Curtis was regularly trained in boxing, he agilely dodged her attack. She lost her balance, flapping and stumbling around before falling face flat.

The people around quietly giggled at her clumsiness. Andrew was red in embarrassment and wished to distance himself from his crazy wife.

“Get someone over! Security! Get thesecurity guards!” Liana screamed in horror. She did not have time for Rosaline.

Her priority was to kick Curtis out.”Drag this rude man out here! Now!” Liana’s refusal to admit to their relationship further triggered Curtis. He was about to verbally attack her further when he heard a chilling voice from behind.

“No one can touch him.” Eyes burning in rage, Jasper seemed like a volcano that would erupt at any time. He approached Liana with a sullen face.

Staring at the terrified Liana, he felt suffocated. He remembered her as a kind angel and a sunshine in their childhood. She claimed to only have eyes for him in this life. At that moment, she felt like a stranger to him.

“Jasper, someone’s framing me. Theyhired a random man to slander me and taint my name!”While frantically explaining to Jasper, she lifted her dress and rushed toward him from the stage. At one point, she almost tripped on her bulky dress.

The walk to Jasper was a short but difficult one. When she finally stood in front of him, her legs turned jelly. She gripped his arms so tight that she almost dug into his flesh.

“Jasper, you’re the only one I love overthese years. In the three years we were apart,I saved myself for you and never fell for another man! 2 “I don’t know who sent that guy to stir uptrouble but don’t listen to his nonsense.

You have to trust me!” “You might have only loved him. Butclaiming that you saved yourself for him?

“Curtis roared in laughter, feelingexhilarated at her shameless lie.

“I will sue you for slander! I’m reportingyou to the police!” She glowered at Curtis and pointed a finger at him.

“Are you suing me? I should be the one to fucking sue you for child abandonment!”Curtis ran out of patience and threw a file he carried to Liana.

He continued, “This is the maternity test result of you and our daughter! What can you say when the cold, hard evidence is in your face?” Since Curtis had no other way out anyway, he decided to drag Liana down with him.

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 293-Curtis’ explosive claims dropped a bombshell at the venue.

“Oh my God! Is that filthy and vulgar manLiana Gardner’s lover? What’s wrong with her taste in men? Why would she go after that man when she has Jasper Beckett?” “You might not know this, but peoplesometimes get tired of the good stuff and go for wild game meat instead.” “How could she give birth to his child andthen dream of marrying Jasper Beckett? She’s so cruel! That child is her flesh and blood!” “This is shocking news!” “Crap … Jasper must be so ashamed ofbeing cuckolded!” Landon put a hand in his pocket and marched over to pick up the test result from the floor am id the chaos. Frowning, he double-checked the result before bringing it to Jasper.

He deliberately raised his voice and spoke clearly so that everyone around him could hear.”Jasper, the organization that issued the result, is the leading authority in the nation. The result is likely legitimate.” Jasper pursed his lips and slowly closed his eyes. To Liana, all hope was lost at the moment. Fear flooded through her being.

“Jasper, I developed severe depressionwhen I left you. You knew about that!

“My condition worsened in Mosgravia.Every day was a living hell. I … I lost control of myself. I had no idea what I was doing most of the time.” At this point, Liana had no choice but to use her depression as a shield to gain Jasper’s sympathy. After all, as a victim of depression, Jasper would surely give her a hand.

On the other hand, Sophia was furious and hopeless on the stage. She was enraged at Liana’s stupidity, which led to a disastrous situation.

Her hopelessness stemmed from Liana’s indirect admission that she had slept with Curtis and bore him a daughter.

“Hahaha!Depression? Liana, is that ajoke? How would a heartless woman like you suffer from depression?” Curtis double d over with laughter.

At that moment, the screen changed and displayed a bilingual copy of Liana’s mental health diagnosis, much to everyone’s shock.

“Surprise! The therapist who treated youleft behind evidence. You took the fake diagnosis with you, but he kept the authentic document. He was worried about getting into trouble because of you, bitch!” He had an evil idea when he thought of the torture he had endured because of Liana.

He spat at her and cursed,”Depression, my ass!Why don’t you check for STDs instead?” “Shut up! Shut the fuck up!”Despiteboiling in hatred, Liana put on a pitiful expression and glanced at Jasper with her tear-stricken face. “Jasper, don’t trust him!Don’t … Ouch!” Jasper was overtaken with despair. He forcefully withdrew his arm from her grip, and she almost lost her balance as a result. He was attacked by fury, humiliation, and remorse after finding out about her horrendous lie. Pain ripped through his chest. ① His pale lips curled into a sneer as he chuckled with raging eyes. He was laughing at himself for being blind in love. He was dumb to waste three years of Alyssa’s life for Liana, a woman full of lies and wrongdoings.

He hurt Alyssa over and over for Liana. No wonder Alyss a hated him so. Even he would resent himself for what he had done.

“Liana Gardner, let’s break up.” “W-What did you say?” Jasper’s attractiveface turned into a blur in her vision.

Her mind went blank as if someone had hit her on the back of her head.

The door to the ballroom was busted open without warning. Four policemen marched in Liana’s direction, making her blood run cold. They walked past her and headed toward Rosaline.

“W-What are you doing?”Rosaline’steeth chattered as she squeezed out the question with the last ounce of her mental strength.

“You are Rosaline Kirkman, aren’t you?”One of the police officers went up and handcuffed her.”You are arrested and charged for contract killing. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in court.”

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 294-Everyone turned to Rosaline in shock. She was terribly pale. They knew that the police wouldn’t make the effort to arrest her if they did not have solid evidence.

The arrest basically confirmed that Rosaline had been involved in contract killing.

Rosaline’s ears rang at the sight of the shiny handcuffs on her wrists. Her vision went black in despair.

What happened? Why did it end in this way? She had hired a reliable hitman, who was paid handsomely, to get rid of Liana’s out-of-wedlock daughter.

The murder even happened abroad. How did the authorities find out about it?

“Rosie! Rosie!” Andrew was horrified byhis wife’s arrest. He ran over to stop the policemen. However, he suddenly blacked out, collapsing while grimacing and clutching his chest.

“Call the ambulance!” Javier franticallyrequested help to move Andrew to a corner.

Meanwhile, Landon was dumbfounded by the situation. He gasped, “Fuck!Fuck!

Bro, your ex-mother-in-law is arrested for murder! That’s the juiciest gossip of the night!” Jasper watched the developments indifferently without any intention to help the Gardners.”It’s only fair to pay for what you did.” Rosaline was led away by the police officers in plain view of the guests. When she walked pa st Liana, she gave her daughter a teary last look.

Liana finally broke down when she saw her mother’s look.”Don’t take her away!

She did not kill anyone! Mom!” Sobbin g and wailing, she did not run far before she heard the ruffle of fabric. She sensed a cooling touch on her skin as people around her gasped.

The ha ute co uture dress she forcefully put on with tape had slipped off her body as the tape was no longer adhesive due to her sweat. She only had a strapless, backless adhesive br a and panty on as her nude body was shamefully exposed in public.

“Ah!” Liana curled up and protected herchest with her arms while dying from shame. Sophia seethed at the unsalvageable situation and regretted hosting the embarrassing birthday party for Liana.

Betty was elated at Liana’s reputational damage as she watched the drama, sipping on red wine. She couldn’t stop herself from smiling. Some nasty men had started filming Liana.

“Tsk tsk. Her body is so-so. Bro, thebreakup is not a loss for you.”Landon rested his el bow on Jasper with a mocking expression.

Jasper’s decades of relationship with Liana had turned into an outrageous joke.

Staring at his feet, he seemed to have lost hope and turned to leave.

Drowning in hopelessness, Liana stood up and ran after him. “Jasper!” She momentarily forgot that she was clothless and unwittingly exposed her almost nude body by standing up.

“Lord! Look at her belly! What are thoselines?” “It looks like stretch marks!” “I can tell they are stretch marks rightaway because I gave birth twice!” “Oh my God! How dare she act like aninnocent young lady when she has given birth to a kid? She’s disgusting!” “Poor Mr. Beckett! He almost got into ahuge mess. Thank goodness he’s making a U-turn!” Liana’s dream of becoming Mrs. Beckett went up in a puff of smoke. Everything she worked hard for had gone down the drain.

… Jasper dragged himself down the corridor with heavy steps and a g rim look.

Landon walked beside him and was about to speak a few times but couldn’t get his words out.

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 295-“Do I look pitiful, dumb, and laughable toyou?” Jasper’s voice was surprisingly scorched. He forced a bitter smile.

Landon shook his head with seriousness.”No, Jasper. I’m your only friend and best bud. I won’t laugh at you no matter what happens. It’s just … a pity.” “A pity?” Jasper closed his raging eyesand mentally shredded the memories of Liana at the birthday party.

“It’s not a pity. If anything, I was blindand bad at judging her character. I deserved everything that had happened to me.” “No, it’s not that.”Landon sighedwistfully.”I think it was a pity that you missed the chance of making your marriage work in the three years, all because of Liana.

You could have been happy with Alyssa instead of turning into enemies like now. Don’t you think?” Jasper froze up at the possibility of a happy life with Alyssa. He fell into a daze, replaying memories.

“Jasper, can we not get a divorce? It’sbecause … I love you.” A loud ringing persisted in his ears, along with a terrible headache. He quickly held onto the wall as his fingers curled into a fist. He felt his throat closing up and his chest pounding in pain.

Alyss a had once begged him not to get a divorce in tears. He dismissed her plea as a last-ditch attempt to keep the marriage. Ignoring her plea, he perceived her as a prison that he needed to get out of.

He realized too late that Alyss a never intended to tie him down. She humbly professed her love for him one last time in hopes that she could keep loving him.

Knowing he had never loved her, she tried her best to keep him around because she feared losing the right to love him after the divorce.

“That poor little girl must have beenaround three or four. That means Liana Gardner had been sleeping with that man behind your back when she was at Mosgravia.

“If my memory serves me correctly, shewas stringing you along and bothering you. She gave off the impression that she was in exile at Mosgravia because she was willing to give in and wait for you. It seems she had a pretty busy social life behind your back.” Jasper grabbed his collar. He trembled violently from the heartache, and each breath he took felt like the end of him.

“Liana was never short of men. You werejust one of them.”Landon stared deep into Jasper’s eyes.”But you were Lyse’s only love. Do you still remember that rainy night you went to her place? Do you know what she said to me?” Jasper returned a blank stare. His forehead was drenched in sweat.

“I confessed my love to her, but sheturned me down right away.” Landon smiled bitterly. He was never a man who needed to go to such lengths for a woman.

He continued, “She told me that she wouldn’t have fallen in love without you and would not fall for any man after leaving you.” Jasper’s eyes wavered in shock. He felt as though he was stabbed everywhere across his body as the pain spread.

“Alyssa Taylor, you said that you wouldnot love anyone until I showed up,”he thought. He wondered if that meant he had show n up way earlier in her life.

He needed answers. He demanded an answer from her.

Jasper’s phone buzzed in his pocket. He took out the phone with shaking hands. It was a call from Ben, which reminded him that something might have happened to Newton.

He hurriedly picked up.”Mr. Gorham, did something happen to Grandpa?” “Mr. Jasper, your grandfather hassuffered a sudden stroke. Please hurry to the Solana City General Hospital now!” “What?” Jasper felt his chest tighten.

“Don’t worry too much. He’s been movedto the VIP room from the ER. He’s in a stable condition.” Ben reported with lingering fear, “This is all thanks to Ms.

Taylor. She administered first aid to Mr. Newton just in time. Had it not been for her, Mr. Newton would have been in a critical situation!” Jasper’s cheeks were burning in shame, as though someone had slapped him multiple times.

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 296-Liana and Rosaline’s scandal spread like wildfire online. Jasper and Liana’s engagement news was no longer the top trending topic. It was replaced by hashtags like #LianaGardnersDaughter and #RosalineKirkmanContractKilling.

The footage of the dumpster fire at the party had been leaked. Liana was shown screaming hysterically in the videos.

The dress slip incident and her half-naked body were captured as well in what was a ridiculous soap opera that went viral online.

Liana was violently mocked and cursed in the comment sections. Netizens expressed their distaste at her decision to give up on her daughter for wealth.

Some even started a petition to subject Liana’s behavior to the law.

“She can’t even tell her daughter apart after abandoning the poor kid abroad. She’s worse than a dog! Even a dog takes better care of her pups.” “Comparing her to a dog is an insult todogs.” “I heard Jasper Beckett ditched his ex-wife for this bitch. Damn it, he’s really something.” “He’s love-blind and dumb. I might nothave met his ex-wife, but any woman is better than Liana Gardner at this point!” “The ex-wife must feel humiliated to becompared to Liana Gardner.” “Rumors have it that Jasper Beckett andLiana Gardner are childhood sweethearts. How tragic!I feel sick at fairytales of childhood sweethearts now.” “LMAO!That’s so dramatic. I needsomeone to make it into a TV show! My mo m and I would love to watch it!” Ruining one’s reputation seemed easy on the surface. Only the Taylor brothers knew how Alyssa had meticulously planned out each step of Liana Gardner’s downfall.

Alyss a was the most patient of all. If she ever made a move, it was surely to decimate her enemy.

At that moment, the entrance to the Berenike Hotel was crowded with onlookers, media, and police vehicles.

Rosaline was ashen-faced when she showed up in public. She was dragged into the police car by two police officers as she was too weak to walk.

Many onlookers who had not witnessed the scene of an arrest, excitedly filmed the process and uploaded the footage to TikTok.

Across the road, Jonah and Silas slowly rolled up the windows of their RollsRoyce after successfully wrapping up their covert operation.

“I was about to make you buy some bots to keep Liana and her mo m trending. Looks like we’re good now. Everyone’s excited about the gossip.”Silas stared at the influx of hate comments against Liana with a wicked expression that resembled Axel’s.

“Hm?”Jonah stopped in the middle of hiscoffee drinking with a scrutinizing look.”The only problem with you is that miserly habit of yours.

“Can’t you fix that? You’re WinstonTaylor’s son. You can’t seriously expect me to help pay for bot service. Ten million is probably nothing to you!” “How dare you accuse me of being stingy?I have been splurging on Lyse since I was young. I never pinch my pennies!” Silas glared at his brother indignantly.

“Yeah. The problem is you’ve never beengenerous to anyone except Lyse.”Jonah sipped his coffee gracefully and joked,”Come to think of it, you’re doing this for Lyse as well.” Silas wittily chuckled.”Jonah, we’re working together this time. You’re in charge of external operations while I’m doing back-end work. You are the star of this mission, and I wouldn’t want to take the credit.

“More than that, you’re my older brother.It’s your duty to look after me. Just take pity on me, will you?” Jonah smiled helplessly and gave Silas a playful slap on the back of the head.”You’re getting slicker by the day after working as a prosecutor.” Silas scratched his head goofily. An idea flashed across his mind. He was about to look for his phone when it rang.

“Ho!We’re brothers, after all! Cyruscalled me just when I was thinking of calling him.”Silas put the phone on speaker mode and chuckled.”Chief Cyrus, how’s everything on your end?” “I’ve sent my men to arrest Rosaline Kirkman. I’ll bring that bastard who hurt Lyse to the station as well.” Cyrus was simmering in anger when he updated Silas in his signature hoarse voice.”Don’t worry. I will not go easy on him.” Mandy Lovelace had two sons and a daughter. The late Damien, the fifth Taylor sibling, worked as the captain of an airline before his demise, while the sixth sibling, Miley, married and settled down in Kontina. Miley was a congressman’s wife and might be the first lady of Kontina one day.

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 297-Cyrus Taylor was the youngest son in the family. He had decided on a career in the police force to uphold justice.

His childhood ambition came true as he was now chief of the First Criminal Investigation Division in the Solana City Police Department.

“Yeah! Fuck him up badly!” Silas wasinfluenced by Cyrus’ passion and punched against the window. “Can’t the police spice up the interrogation? We prosecutors aren’t allowed to do so. Don’t miss your chance to take revenge for Lyse! 11 Jonah was speechless at the exchange. The daughters of the Taylor family were regal and dainty, but the sons were thuggish and belligerent, even more so than himself, who had been involved in the underground gangs.

When the three invincible sons of the Taylor family joined hands, their target had no way out.

… Jasper rushed to the hospital to visit Newton. Landon was worried for him and insisted on tagging along.

Jasper sped to the hospital and parked his sports car at the entrance before sprinting into the hospital without care. Newton was his only tie to the Beckett family.

Only Newton loved and cared for him, treating him like a grandson.

“Grandpa!Grandpa!” Rushing toward thedestination, Jasper repeatedly called out to Newton in a hoarse voice.

When he dashed into the corridor, panting heavily, he found Alyssa hugging a sleeping Lauren on the bench. The scene was as tranquil as something out of an oil painting. 1 She looked down and gently cuddled the girl in her arms. She had a peaceful look on her face, radiating grace and virtue.

Her petite frame was house to an indestructi ble force. She always showed up like an angel to help those in need.

Jasper was overcome by a wave of bitterness and remorse. He felt thankful that she was around to hold the fort.

Alyss a looked up and stared into Jasper’s eyes when she heard the footsteps.

He momentarily fell for the confused and gentle look in her eyes. Sadly, the moment did not last long. She put on a steely expression after she recognized him.

“Has Ms. Gardner’s birthday party ended?Is it okay for you to leave the mess behind and visit the hospital?” Alyssa did not chastise him at all, but he felt terribly ashamed and exposed upon hearing her words.

He went up to her with regret in his eyes. She stared at the g round with a strong aversion, fervently wishing to shut him out.

“Grandpa’s asleep. Mr. Gorham is takingcare of him in the room. You can wait for him out here because he needs his rest,”Alyss a said.

“Alyssa, I’m sorry,”Jasper croaked as hestruggled to contain his emotions.

“What? Sorry to me?” A snicker appearedon her lips.”You should feel sorry for your grandpa, who has narrowly escaped death. Why did you apologize to me when we have nothing to do with each other?

“Grandpa cares for you a lot, so I hopeyou’ll make more time for him. You got lucky because I was at his place tonight. What if I wasn’t there the next time he had a stroke?

“Luck will not always favor Grandpa. TheGrim Reaper will not spare him every time.

11 Feeling a heartache rising in her chest, she took a deep breath with misty eyes.”I regret he’s not my real grandfather. I feel bad that I can’t stay by his side all the time. I wish I could bring him everywhere and care for him at all times.” “Alyssa …”Jasper swallowed hard. Full ofbitterness, he struggled to come up with a reply. His apology was worthless to her.

“Jasper!”Landon hurried over all of asudden. He cast a complicated look at Alyssa before addressing Jasper sternly,”Come with me! I have something to tell you!”

 

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 298-“What is it? Tell me right here.” Jaspernever once took his eyes off Alyssa.

Landon furrowed his brows as he wondered how to go about it.

“Jasper! Jasper!”Suddenly, he wasspooked by a wailing female voice from afar.

Meanwhile, Jasper frowned and straightened up from shock.

Lauren was woken up by the screeching voice and stirred in Alyssa’s embrace.

Her eyes fluttered open as she held tightly onto Alyssa’s shirt.”What’s going on?

Did something happen to Grandpa?” “Hey, Lauren, everything’s fine. Nothingbad will happen to him when I’m around.”Alyssa shot a glare at the distressed Liana and helped Lauren sit up.

Alyssa continued, “Lauren, I’ll find a place for you to rest. Grandpa can meet you the first thing after he wakes up.” Alyssa’s emotionless exit put a bullet through Jasper’s chest. He felt suffocated by the paini.

“Jasper!”Liana’s eyes were swollen fromthe crying. She was about to throw herself into Jasper’s arms when Landon stopped her coldly.

He advised, “Ms. Gardner, this is not the time to be meeting Jasper. As a daughter, you should visit your dad at the hospital and get your mo m a capable attorney.” She ignored his suggestion and shamelessly wailed at Jasper,”I’m framed! I’m the victim. You must believe in me! How could I have betrayed you when I am so in love with you?” 1 Jasper stood with his back to her. He clenched his jaw in irritation with wintry eyes. Her profession of love sickened him.

“Tsk, don’t you have any shame aftergetting knocked up? Quit talking about love. I’m going to barf.” Landon gave her a side-eye.

He continued, “You should be thankful that Jasper is kind. If I were Jasper, the father of your child would have been dead by now. I would have kicked your family out of Solana City and made sure you never showed up in front of me!” Liana was stunned by Landon’s heartless remark and shuddered. Jasper finally turned around stiffly and glared at Liana.”Leave.” “No,I won’t!” Liana whined, still actinglike an obnoxious little brat, thinking that she could get her way with Jasper.

Little did she know that Jasper had texted Xavier. Xavier showed up with two bodyguards to send her away.

“Remove her. Let’s not disturb otherpatients,”Jasper ordered in an icy tone.

“Got it!” Xavier furiously rolled up hissleeves and took Liana away by her arms with the help of another bodyguard.

“There’s nothing between Curtis and I …He … He raped me because I refused to date him! That’s how I got pregnant with his child!” Liana resorted to telling a ridiculous lie to get out of it. “He blackmailed me repeatedly and dragged me down with him when I refused to give in. He wanted to destroy me!

“Jasper, I’m a victim as well! Why do yourefuse to trust me?” “Liana.”The glint of ice in Jasper’s eyesplunged her into despair. There was no hope of salvaging the relationship.”I didn’t break up with you over that man or the child.” Puzzled by Jasper’s explanation, she stared agape at him.

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 299-“I don’t blame you for leaving me andfalling in love in Mosgravia. I wouldn’t even blame you for giving birth to someone’s child.” Hatred filled Jasper’s eyes.

He curled his fists and continued,”But you shouldn’t have lied about your severe depression. You used it as a cover to manipulate me into marrying you!” “No … That’s not it …” Liana startedmumbling incoherently as blood drained from her face. The gravity of her mistake finally dawned on her.

She lied that she suffered from severe depression to keep Jasper by her side.

However, it hadn’t occurred to her that Jasper and his mother were the victims of severe depression.

Worried that Liana might share his mother’s fate, he tolerated her behavior and cruelly abandoned Alyssa, who had loved him deeply.

She had never considered the fallout when her cover was blown. Not only did she manipulate Jasper, but she also humiliated his mother. Jasper would never forgive her.

“You manipulated my feelings with thecondition that my mother and I suffered from.”Jasper was burning in regret and rage. He laughed at himself. “Liana, you made me feel like a fool.” “No, Jasper! That’s not it…” Landon shook his head and questioned with resentment, “Liana, nobody knows Jasper’s pain as much as you do because you were his childhood friend. You wouldn’t have tortured and lied to Jasper, inflicting pain on him for the second time, if you had a bit of conscience.

“How could you guilt-trip him with yourchildhood memories? It begs the question if you’re truly in love with him. That’s not how you treat a man you love. I’d rather be single than date a woman like you. This is sickening.” “Landon, that’s enough.” Jasper wasreluctant to revisit his memories of Liana or get involved with her any further.”Xavier, I do not want to see her ever. I want her out of my sight right now.” “Of course, Mr. Beckett!”Xavier stared atLiana with a look of disgust and forcefully dragged her away.

“Jasper, how could you treat me this way?”Liana finally ditched her pitiful act andyelled at him hysterically.”Those are all excuses! You broke up with me because you were bored of me! You left me behind because you are in love with Alyssa Taylor!

“What’s so good about that bitch? Did shesave your life or what? She used a fake identity from the start because she was up to something!Wasn’t she lying to you as well?” 2 “Shut the fuck up! You have no right tocompare yourself to her!”Jasper’s eyes widened in fury as he bellowed at Liana,a scene never seen before.”One more word about Alyssa from you, and I will kick the Gardners out of this country. Get lost right now!” His harsh words hit her like a rock. Fear gnawed at her insides. She would have collapsed right there if Xavier had not held on to her.

She had underestimated how much Jasper cared about Alyssa. Her attempt to paint Alyssa black had backfired, turning her into a joke once more.

Peace returned to the corridor after Liana was dragged away.

“Bro, despite everything, I’d like tocongratulate you.” Landon was glad that Jasper had returned to the right track and placed a hand on his shoulder.

Landon added, “It’s not too late to come around, no matter how long or how badly you’ve been lied to.” “Is it not too late?” Jasper smiled in defeatas his shoulders trembled dejectedly.

Why did he feel that it was too late?

Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 300-Liana attracted stares from the hospital staff when she was dragged toward the entrance. Her ego was the last thing she cared about because she had nothing left to lose.

“Ouch!” Xavier and the bodyguard let go of her at the same time. She fell onto the g round in disgrace.

“Dude, do you have a napkin?”Xavierasked the bodyguard.

“Sorry, Xavier. I don’t.” “Ah, well. I’ll ask the nurse for somealcohol swabs later. We’d better disinfect our hands after touching that filthy thing. ” Xavier spat in Liana’s direction. Then, he headed back to the hospital with the bodyguard.

Through sheer coincidence, two claps of thunder roared in the night sky. It started pouring a few seconds later.

After going through consecutive setbacks, Liana sat blankly on the ground. She lost the energy to stand up in the rain.

Her carefully styled hair for the birthday party was a mess. The makeup on her face was like a mix of spilled paint.

“Jasper, I am your savior. How could youdo this to me, you heartless thing?” Sobbin g loudly, she slapped the puddles on the ground. The action splashed dirty water across her face.

She even broke her manicured nails and yelped in pain.

At that moment, a black Rolls-Royce came to a stop at the entrance and splashed the puddle of water all over Liana. The water even got into her mouth.

“Bleh!Don’t you know how to drive?

Didn’t you see me?” She looked like a madwoman in the pouring rain when she barked at the car to release her anger, Amid her scolding, the driver emerged with a black umbrella and politely opened the rear door.

Silas was the first to em erge and took the umbrella from the driver.

The back of his shirt was drenched in the rain because he shifted the umbrella closer to the door. Next, Jonah calmly left the car and shared the umbrella with his brother.

Despite the gloomy weather, the brothers looked majestic, like the figures of a famous painting.

Liana trembled violently when she saw the Taylor siblings. She held her tongue.

Her wet face flushed in anger and shame.

“Ms. Gardner, this is not where your dadis hospitalized, is it? You are crying at the wrong place.” Silas couldn’t hide his grin at the sight of the woman who was drenched in rain.

“Let’s go, Silas. Lyse is waiting for us.”Jonah was only concerned about Alyssa and gave Silas a gentle pat on the shoulder as a reminder. They ignored Liana and walked past the doors.

“Alyss a Taylor, how could you receive lovefrom everyone when I get nothing in return? Even Jasper has abandoned me for you. How? How?” A flash of lightning illuminated the frightening scowl on her face.

“One day, I will end you with my ownhands. I will!” … Alyssa finally coaxed Lauren back to sleep. She caressed Lauren’s smooth cheek with a heavy heart and sighed. Lauren was shocked by the events of the night and was wiped out.

She tucked Lauren in and wandered to the door of the room worriedly. She immediately ran into Jasper when she opened the door.

He stood straight in front of her in his impeccable suit, but he somehow felt downcast and dispirited.

She frowned at him. Her gaze slowly traveled down from his face. He wore an exquisite and shiny gold dragon lapel pin that stung her eyes.

The lapel pin was her Valentine’s Day gift to him in the first year of their marriage. She designed the pin and picked the materials on her own. The lapel pin was encrusted with two top-grade rubies.

The effort she poured into the lapel pin rivaled Jasper’s effort in preparing Crimson Heart for Liana.

She smirked at the thought. Her eyes darkened. He finally wore the lapel pin that he had once cast aside.

His action was absurd and ironic, no matter how she looked at it.
