Ch. 551..560
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 551-After Jasper was discharged from the hospital, he worked hard for three full days to clear the backlog of work that had piled up. Given his unstable health condition, he relied on supplements and Alyssa’s prescribed medications to keep himself going.
Apart from that, Xavier would apply the external creams and ointments daily onto Jasper’s wounds.
With all the effort, Jasper hoped he would recover soon. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to offer Alyssa any protection with his ailing body.
“Mr. Beckett, it’s time to take your medication, Xavier announced as he brought the pills and a bottle of water on a tray. Jasper was in the midst of approving some documents and responded, “I’m busy now. Later.” “Um, if you don’t take your medications on time, I’ll report it to Madam,” Xavier declared. “She reached out to me that day and reminded me to make sure you take your medications on time. I’ll need to report any issues to her right away.
She’ll be upset to learn that you’re not listening.” Hearing that, Jasper instantly put aside his pen and took his medications. Xavier nodded, feeling satisfied and tickled.
Xavier couldn’t help but reflect on what might have been if Jasper had heeded Alyssa’s advice during their marriage. They might have already built a family with children by now. The emotionless bachelor still had a long way to go in his pursuit of Alyssa.
*Did you keep an eye on Madam, like I asked you to?” Jasper questioned. He frowned at the bitterness of the pills that had spread in his mouth. He opened a drawer, unwrapped a piece of chocolate, and ate it.
The pack of chocolate was among the snacks Alyssa had left behind at Seaview Manor. When he had come across it, he had cherished it in his office drawer like a hidden treasure. In moments of stress or low spirits, he’d seek comfort by indulging in a plece. Oh, how pathetic was that!
“I did. I heard that Mr. Taylor’s third wife, Lyla Nelson, is about to have her birthday party. Madam seems preoccupied with organizing the event at the hotel.” “Is Lyla Nelson the former celebrity?” Jasper inquired.
“Yes! She was my mom’s Idoll When I was young, our family watched her shows every day. My mom even tried to replicate Lyla’s outfits from the show.
“It’s a shame that Lyla retired from the industry so early. It even left my mom feeling depressed for a while. After all, Lyla Nelson was an icon to many!” Xavier explained with a mix of excitement and regret.
ONUS “Why did she suddenly retire?” Jasper asked absent-mindedly.
“According to my mom, Lyla was accused of using illegal drugs and got blacklisted in the industry. It was a major scandal at the time, and it nearly destroyed Lyla’s reputation. 1 “Mr. Taylor did try to clear her name, but the damage was already done, and her popularity tanked. She might as well leave the industry.
Gosh, you have to give it to Mr. Taylor! He’s quite the charmer, always getting what he wants. Women couldn’t resist his help when they were at their lowest,” Xavier remarked, stealing a quick glance at Jasper’s reaction.
Indeed, Jasper tensed up after sensing the loaded meaning in Xavier’s words.
That was not the end of it. Xavier added, “I hope you don’t mind my bluntness.
Your ex-father-in-law sure knows how to handle women.
“Just look at him, living peacefully with multiple wives. Why couldn’t you keep Madam satisfied? Would you like to meet up with him for some pointers?” Jasper hissed with a sullen face, “Are you serious? Do you want me to seek advice from Winston Taylor on how to win back his daughter? What’s wrong with you?”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 552-Xavier shivered and stammered, “Uh, well, Mr. Beckett, I am worried for you!
There has barely been any progress in your relationship with Madam. Who knows if I ever live to the day when you get back together!
“You said you risked your life to save her, but her attitude hasn’t changed. She hasn’t visited you except for her daily check-in calls to me. I feel sorry for you.
Xavier recalled that Alyssa had always prepared a feast whenever she learned Jasper would come home Then, she’d wait for him by the door. She had given all her heart to him But now, all she offered were icy glances that sent shivers through onlookers.
Some things, once lost, were impossible to regain “That’s fine,” Jasper said and sighed. He rubbed his fist on his knee “I will not give up on pursuing her, no matter how she treats me There was a knock on the door. A female secretary announced, “Mr Beckett, Mr.
Harper is here to see you “Let him in Then, Landon smilingly entered, humming a tune with a gleeful expression He was dressed in a white suit as usual Upon closer look, he did not seem to wear anything underneath his suit despite the cold weather. His tanned and solid chest was exposed, and a platinum necklace hung from his neck. He looked wild, sexy.
and seductive Landon was the only man in Solana City who could exude such charm in that outfit “Bro, you look good. Lyse’s medication works, it seems,” Landon remarked and plopped on the couch. He felt relieved seeing Jasper’s marked improvement.
Ever since Jasper admitted his feelings for Alyssa, Landon had been mentioning her a lot more Jasper cheered up at the mention of Alyssa, but he cast a disgusted look at the skimpy outfit on Landon and warned, “You won’t be let in the next time if you dress like this” Landon wondered aloud, “But why?” Jasper lowered his gaze and pored through his documents “This is an office, not a nightclubs i’d rather ot have people gossiping about my weird links.” Xavier nearly burst into laughter, leaving Landon squinting as it took him a moment to catch on.
Then, Landon yelled angrily, “You little fucker! I’m straight, okay? Even if you want to bed me, I won’t sleep with you. I’ve got better options out there…” Jasper was left dumbfounded while Xavier struggled to hold back his laughter.
“That’s enough. I don’t have time for your nonsense. What’s up?” Jasper questioned.
“Look at this!” He produced an invitation card and waved it in front of Jasper.
“What’s that?” “I got this invitation card to Lyla Nelson’s birthday party this weekend! Ms.
Alyssa’s staff delivered it to me!”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 553-Jasper fumed as Landon gloated. Green in envy, Jasper scoffed. “What’s so special about that? It’s normal to be invited, given the Harpers’ social standing in Solana City.” “So, given your family’s social standing in Solana City, did you receive an invitation?” “Don’t we have anything better to talk about? If not, please leave,” Jasper remarked. He had a short fuse when it came to anything related to Alyssa.
“Look at you! I’m fooling with you,” Landon said. He stopped teasing Jasper, knowing he was upset about not receiving an invitation.
Then, he produced another crumpled invitation card from his back pocket and explained, “Here. This is an invitation from the witch.
“Isn’t it a coincidence that she chooses to throw her birthday party on the same day as Lyla Nelson? Not only that, she’s hosting it in Solana City. Is she turning this into a competition?” Jasper’s brows brows furrowed in surprise. “What? Does Sophia share her birthday with Lyla?” Xavier chimed in, scratching his head in confusion. “If I recall correctly, Madam Sophia’s birthday is this Thursday, not on the weekend. Why would she move her birthday event to the weekend? Is she trying to compete with Lyla?” “Is there any bad blood between Sophia and Lyla Nelson? Jasper inquired, his senses sharp.
“Um, I’m not too sure. I remember they were signed to the same network as actresses. Lyla always.
snagged the lead roles, leaving Sophia with no option but to take on the villain roles.” Jasper fell into deep thoughts. He replied, “Got it. Keep an eye on Sophia for the next few days. If she makes any move, let me know right away.” In Sophia’s room at Seaview Manor, she was busy picking her dress for her birthday party with Betty.
The room was overflowing with luxurious dresses, covering the surface of the clothing rack, the couch, and the bed. The expensive dresses were carelessly laid across surfaces like colorful rags.
“They’re all gaudy! Are these the limited edition dresses for this year? The designers must have been out. of their minds! No one could possibly look good in these outfits!” Betty exclaimed in dissatisfaction.
She flung them onto the floor and even stomped on them.
Xavier nearly burst into laughter, leaving Landon squinting as it took him a moment to catch on +15 BONUS Then, Landon yelled angrily, “You little fucker! I’m straight, okay? Even if you want to bed me, I won’t sleep with you. I’ve got better options out there Jasper was left dumbfounded while Xavier struggled to hold back his laughter.
‘That’s enough. I don’t have time for your nonsense. What’s up?” Jasper questioned “Look at this!” He produced an invitation card and waved it in front of Jasper.
“What’s that?” “I got this invitation card to Lyla Nelson’s birthday party this weekend! Ms.
Alyssa’s staff delivered it to me!”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 554-Back at the KS World Hotel, Alyssa monitored the progress of Lyla’s event wedding.
was out of love for Lyla.
She was family.
“Ms. Alyssa, you’ve been through a lot. You should rest after pulling three allnighters,” Sean reminded her and handed her a glass of orange juice, as he worried that coffee might be too acidic for her.
“I can’t. The event hall arrangements have been made, but we haven’t completed the dress for Lyla,” Alyssa mumbled and massaged her sore forehead.
Women of Alyssa’s age would be shopping, traveling the world, and dating.
Unlike them, she spent most of her time buried in documents and data, leading the hotel management to improve their business.
She might be hardy, but she would also get exhausted like any other person.
She instructed, “Arrange a visit to Rose Emerson’s studio later.” “Is it to work on Madam Lyla’s dress?” “Yes. I’m afraid I won’t be able to finish it on time without putting in some overtime.” Sean sighed, feeling concerned for her. His phone suddenly buzzed. It was a text from Jonah containing the guest list of Lyla’s birthday party. Jonah ordered Sean to relay the list to Alyssa.
Sean tapped into the attached photo and was immediately attracted by the names of the three Schmidt brothers. He was consumed by fury once more at the thought of Josh Schmidt, who had thrown a wad of cash at him, and Josh’s mistress with heavy makeup, who had humiliated Tatiana.
“What’s wrong with the guest list? You have a funny look on your face,” Alyssa questioned. She had observed the change in his microexpressions.
“Ms. Alyssa, there’s something that I need to report to you,” Sean began. Then, he told her all about the incident from the night he sent Tatjana back to campus while leaving out Josh’s humiliation.
At first, he had wanted to solve the problem for Tatiana. On second thought, he realized he might get into greater trouble, given that Brie was Josh’s mistress. As a mere secretary, he lacked the power to protect Tatiana.
Besides, Brie probably gave Tatiana trouble as her schoolmate. Since Sean was busy with work, he had to ask for Alyssa’s help to get rid of the problem for Tatiana.
+15 BONUS Alyssa listened to his account with an angry frown. She spat, “How dare a mistress harass my sister?” Then, she slammed her hand against the table and hissed, “What goes around comes around! She will reap what she sow.” Sean couldn’t help but let out an amused chuckle at her reaction.
She continued, “That woman is only acting insolent because she thinks she has Josh Schmidt’s support. I bet she’d fall to her knees and apologize to Taty if she knew that Taty was backed by the Taylor family and the KS Group. I’d like to see if Josh Schmidt would defend her by then!” “So, are you planning to teach that mistress a lesson?” Sean cautiously prodded.
Alyssa lifted her glass and took a sip of the juice leisurely. She scoffed. “She isn’t worth my time. If anything, I’ll need to put the blame on Josh Schmidt to get revenge for Taty.” “But he might not know that Tatiana Taylor was the woman that his mistress had a fight with. If he had known… Alyssa glared at him. “I don’t care! I can be unreasonable and overly protective.
Ignorance is bliss’ doesn’t work for me.” That evening, Alyssa drove her Bugatti La Voiture Noire to Rose Emerson’s studio alone without Sean’s company.
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 555-“Gosh, the goddess, Alexa, has graced my tiny studio with her presence! I am beyond honored to welcome you!” Rose teased Alyssa when the latter showed up.
She had been impressed enough by Alyssa’s elite family background and her identity as Sharon, the renowned fashion designer. To her surprise, Alyssa wore many more hats, including Alexa.
Alexa was regarded as an icon of the jewelry design industry, akin to Sharon’s status in the fashion world.
“Alright now. I’m wrong for hiding my identity from you, How can I make it up to you?” Alyssa mused and confidently wrapped an arm around Rose’s waist.
“Well, do visit me often. Don’t show up only when you have something to ask from me, okay?” Rose pouted sadly.
“You’re making me out to be a player, and I’m not! Alyssa playfully touched Rose’s nose and sighed. “I’m swamped with work right now. But when things ease up, how about we plan a getaway abroad? I’ll cover all the expenses!” “Yay! You’re the best!” Alyssa had no time for tea and desserts. She hurried into the studio with Rose.
A nearly completed evening dress in red and black stripes draped on the mannequin in the studio.
Under the warm studio lights, it exuded a graceful and captivating charm, resembling something out of a dream.
Once again, Rose admired the dress with bright eyes, “This dress is absolutely divine! It’s even better than what angels wear!” “It’s been in your studio for a few weeks. Aren’t you bored of it yet?” Alyssa joked and delicately ran her fingers along the smooth fabric.
Rose exclaimed with adulation, “I’ll never get bored of it! This dress is crafted from a rare, top-grade gambier gauze called ‘soft gold. The process of dyeing a single roll of this fabric is incredibly intricate, taking up to a year-three rinses, nine boilings, and eighteen rounds of sun-drying.
“I’m amazed you could get your hands on such an excellent fabric. It’s even superior to what’s currently available in the market. I wouldn’t be surprised if you could auction it.” “This fabric comes from my private collection. I’ll give nothing but the best for my family,” Alyssa proudly shared and toyed with the sleeves of the dress as she prepared to complete the birthday outfit for Lyla.
+15 BONUS Alyssa listened to his account with an angry frown. She spat, “How dare a mistress harass my sister?” Then, she slammed her hand against the table and hissed, “What goes around comes around! She will reap what she sow.” Sean couldn’t help but let out an amused chuckle at her reaction.
She continued, “That woman is only acting insolent because she thinks she has Josh Schmidt’s support.

“Ignorance is bliss’ doesn’t work for me.” That evening, Alyssa drove her Bugatti La Voiture Noire to Rose Emerson’s studio alone without Sean’s company,
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 556-Xavier swiftly closed his gaping mouth, only for his jaw to drop open again. He gave Jasper a thumbs-up and replied, “You look fantastic! So full of energy!” Jasper’s expression instantly soured as he demanded, “Do I really look great?” Xavier was momentarily stunned before finally getting it. If Jasper appeared healthy and energetic, it would alleviate Alyssa’s guilt, as it meant he was recovering well. On the other hand, if Jasper showed up looking sickly, Alyssa would feel concerned about him.
So, that was Jasper’s strategy. How clever!
The two men were stopped by an assistant when they stepped into the building.
The assistant said, Gentlemen, Ms. Emerson is seeing a VIP now and unavailable for meetings. I’m afraid you’ll have to leave.” Jasper put on a stern face and asked, “Is Ms. Emerson with her mentor right now?” The assistant was taken aback by his knowledge and asked, “How did you know?” “I’m here as Ms. Emerson’s mentor’s husband,” Jasper responded with narrowed eyes. “You can’t stop a husband from seeing his wife.” Xavier’s jaw hung agape at Jasper’s audacity.
The assistant frowned and scrutinized Jasper before remarking. “Mr. Beckett, do you think I wouldn’t recognize you? If I recall correctly, your fiancée, Ms. Gardner, ordered a dress from us just a few months ago. She announced your upcoming wedding at her birthday party in quite a grand manner.” Jasper tensed at the mention of Liana’s name.
The assistant continued, “It’s been only a few months, and now you’re here claiming that Ms. Emerson’s mentor is your wife. Do you take us as fools?” Jasper wanted to explain himself but was abruptly interrupted by a sharp scream from the second floor.
Rose shouted, “Jasper Beckett, what did you just say? Repeat it. Who’s your wife?” She ran up to Jasper, eyes widened in shock.
“Your mentor, Alyssa Taylor, is my wife.” He paused and added in a low voice to avoid any misunderstanding, “Well, she’s my ex-wife.” “Oh-my-gosh!” Rose was baffled to learn the truth. Still, she was in disbelief.
“I’m warning you now- you’d better not make un stories to take advantage of her famal Wall “If you doubt my words, feel free to ask Alyssa herself. She’ll tell you,” Jasper replied calmly.
“Impossible! I don’t get it! What on earth made her choose you?” Rose instinctively took a step back from Jasper. “Only someone shallow like Liana Gardner would fall for an audacious older man like you!” Jasper awkwardly pressed his lips. Right, what made Alyssa fall for him? While he had once saved her life, that had occurred 13 years ago when she was just 11. Could she have even considered marrying him at that age? It simply didn’t make sense.
“Yes. He’s my ex-husband,” Alyssa’s voice echoed from the second floor, drawing the attention of Rose, Jasper, and Xavier.
Dressed in a white silk blouse and black formal pants, she leaned against the railing with an amused expression. It was as though she was looking right through Jasper, She continued, “Forgive me, Rose. Again, I’m not the first woman who has stumbled into a wrong marriage.”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 557-Jasper’s heart thumped wildly as he tenderly gazed at Alyssa. He momentarily fell into a daze from the hurtful words she directed at him.
“M-Madam!” Rose gasped at Alyssa’s unexpected presence, her face a mixture of emotions. She had so many questions for Alyssa, but she had no idea where to begin.
“Jasper Beckett, why are you here?” Alyssa wondered aloud.
Jasper noticed that she seemed indifferent to him, as though they had never experienced the near-death incident at the mountain park. Her reaction stung, but he replied softly, “I’ve come to see you because I miss you.
“Cut the crap, Do you even believe in what you just said?” She smirked, not believing in a word he said. He merely stood there speechlessly.
“Fine. You’ve seen her. Now, please leave,” Rose angrily demanded her visitors to leave.
Jasper had been involved with Liana earlier. Now that Liana was done for good, he immediately made a U -turn to win back Alyssa. Rose found him distasteful.
“I’m not leaving,” he firmly responded, his gaze unwavering.
“What, are you determined to be a holdout? Don’t make me resort to using my golf club to send you packing!” Rose snapped. She might appear composed and even stoic in public, but she would fiercely protect those dear to her.
In this aspect, she resembled Alyssa a lot.
“Lyse, I need to talk to you about something,” Jasper pleaded fervently with Alyssa, ignoring Rose’s warning Alyssa’s chest tightened while she looked into his passionate eyes. Did he just address her as Lyse?
He had always addressed her by her full name in their three years of marriage.
Sometimes, he’d even go straight to the point without mentioning her name.
Xavier was taken aback and happy for Jasper. It seemed that Jasper had finally learned a thing or two.
“Who are you referring to? You’d better watch your mouth. Madam seems reluctant to pay attention to you after the divorce. You should instead address her as-” “Come with me. We’ll talk,” Alyssa instructed him coldly before she left.
“If you doubt my words, feel free to ask Alyssa herself. She’ll tell you,” Jasper replied calmly.
+15 BONUS “Impossible! I don’t get it! What on earth made her choose you?” Rose instinctively took a step back from Jasper. “Only someone shallow like Liana Gardner would fall for an audacious older man like you!” Jasper awkwardly pressed his lips. Right, what made Alyssa fall for him? While he had once saved her life, that had occurred 13 years ago when she was just 11. Could she have even considered marrying him at that age?

Dressed in a white silk blouse and black formal pants, she leaned against the railing with an amused expression. It was as though she was looking right through Jasper.
She continued, “Forgive me, Rose. Again, I’m not the first woman who has stumbled into a wrong marriage.
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 558-Alyssa slowly narrowed her eyes at Jasper with a look that could cut through steel. He appeared a bit flustered under her intense scrutiny.
She didn’t mince words as she remarked, “That’s disgustingly corny, even if you think it isn’t.” He stammered, “I just… want to be closer to you.” Perplexed by her sudden anger, he realized he was utterly clueless when it came to comforting women.
As a company president known for his decisiveness in business and eloquence at global summits, he now felt utterly helpless before the woman he loved.
“Please, don’t call me Lyse, like how you called her ‘Lia.’ It only makes you associate me with her, and that’s a grave insult.” She fixed a piercing look on him.
In response, he pursed his lips, feeling his throat catch.
The pain he had inflicted on her had never truly lessened. She remained as hurt as the day they divorced.
Every time he evoked their past, she would latch onto it and dwell on the hurt.
Never had she considered forgiving him. In other words, she had reminded herself never to forget the humiliating past. There could be no future for their relationship if she stubbornly clung to the past.
“Lyse, this has nothing to do with Liana or anyone else. I just-” he began to explain himself.
“Enough,” she cut him off coldly and opened the door. “Don’t read too much into this. I allowed you in here because I know you well. You’ll never leave Rose’s studio today without achieving your goal, and I don’t want to trouble Rose.” His face darkened as he stared at her lonely figure.
She had only let him into the studio because she was pressed for time. She was busy with hotel business during the day and could only work on Lyla’s dress at Rose’s studio in the evening.
She picked up an exquisite crystal hair clip from the table. Tossing her hair coolly, she fashioned her hair into a bun.
His tender gaze remained fixed on her, and his fingers moved unconsciously.
He had an irresistible urge to touch her thick, dark, and luscious hair.
They had once shared a bed as newlyweds. Back then, Alyssa always tossed and turned in her sleep, and +15 BONUS Jasper was relieved and grateful. He tried to suppress his joy but failed. He hurried after Alyssa.
In the background, Xavier wore a broad, mischievous grin, thoroughly enjoying the sight of Jasper’s humility before Alyssa.
With no way to prevent Jasper from entering, Rose redirected her ire toward Xavier. She shot him a fierce glare and hissed, “You wait out there. Jasper Beckett’s staff is not permitted inside!” Jasper caught up to Alyssa as fast as he could. Despite that, she did not once turn around to look at him.
He didn’t manage to get her attention even once.
Nonetheless, it was a significant step forward that she let him stay. He clung to this glimmer of hope, fully committed to winning her heart.
As they approached the studio’s entrance, Alyssa suddenly stopped without facing him. He began, “Lyse, I “When have I allowed you to address me as ‘Lyse”?”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 559-“A family member I know is celebrating her birthday soon. I’d like Sharon to design a dress as a gift to that family,” Jasper responded with a hint of discretion in his voice.
He was keeping his surprise gift for Lyla a secret from Alyssa.
Despite his good intentions, Alyssa took it the wrong way. She smirked at him and said, “Oh, right. I forgot that Her Royal Highness Mrs. Beckett is celebrating her birthday this weekend. I assume you’re trying to win your dad’s favor by sending her a gift. How considerate of you.” “Alyssa Taylor,” he warned her with a frown. He didn’t mind a bit of teasing, but he didn’t want to be misunderstood.
“When you contact Sharon, please don’t mention that the dress is a birthday gift for Sophia Kirkman. I’m worried she might give you a good scolding.” Alyssa retorted and angrily turned her back to him.
Then, she added, “Are you finished? If you are, please leave. You’re distracting me while I’m working- Ouch!” In a moment of distraction, she accidentally pricked her finger with a needle and gasped in pain.
“What’s wrong? Are you hurt?” He marched up to her and worriedly held her hand. A drop of blood appeared on her fingertip.
He furrowed his brows and felt the pain as though he was the injured. He commented, “That must have hurt.” “Let go,” she told him and struggled to free her hand, but she failed. More blood started oozing out from the wound like a blooming rose. Tears welled up in his eyes, and suddenly, he gathered courage and put her finger into his mouth.
“You-” Her pupils shifted uneasily as her heart raced. She felt her index finger wrapped in a damp but warm sensation.
When he sucked on her finger, she felt a jolt of electricity swiftly spreading through her body. Slowly, her breathing grew uneven, and her fingers started trembling in his warm mouth.
Feeling her quiver, he narrowed his eyes and gently sucked on her finger rhythmically. As their gazes locked, her body went limp, and her mind drifted into a hazy reverie.
His passionate eyes reflected the same intense gaze he had given her on that moonlit, drizzling night at the mountain. They didn’t even cross a line, but it felt that they had reached a home run.
His breathing quickened, and the temperature around them rose.
“That’s enough!” She panicked, raising her voice and hastily withdrawing her hand from his grasp. She stumbled backward, only to find herself pulled into a hug.
There was an alarmed look in her eyes. She gasped, “Jasper, what do you want to do to me?” His heart raced as he stared into her eyes. Their bodies pressed against each other, close enough to feel.
each other’s heartbeat and warmth.
“Alyssa, I want to kiss you,” he admitted honestly, his eyes filled with lust.
She felt her heart skipped a beat. Gritting her teeth, she spat, “Dream on- He sealed her mouth with a kiss, his tongue forcing its way into her mouth and silencing her. They fell deeper and deeper into the kiss…
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 560-The setting sun bathed Alyssa and Jasper in a radiant golden hue, their figures entwined beneath the glass windows.
It was a breathtaking spectacle. The fading sunlight felt as tender as the kiss they had just shared.
The kiss left her feeling a bit giddy, a sensation that was electrifying and momentarily immobilizing.
Initially, she punched at his chest and shoulders, but over time, her strength waned. His masculine charm left her breathless, and her legs went weak.
She found herself gradually retreating until he pressed her against a table, causing the items on it to scatter to the floor.
In the midst of making out, she let out a moan that seemed both like a protest and a plea.
Jasper was incredibly turned on by the sight, and he blushed all the way to the tip of his ear. An unprecedented burning feeling engulfed him as if she had lit a fire on his body.
At that moment, he made an unspoken promise to himself that Alyssa was the only woman he would ever kiss in such a manner. Furthermore, he vowed that he would never share such a kiss with another woman in his lifetime.
“Madam!” The clueless Rose called out to Alyssa and thoughtlessly barged into the studio. Her jaw fell to the floor when she ran into the racy scene, causing her to cover her mouth in shock.
Soon, she let out a scream that would pierce the roof. “Jasper Beckett, what are you doing to Madam, you pervert? Let go of her!” Meanwhile, Alyssa’s half-closed eyes were now wide open. In a sudden, heartpounding realization, she abruptly pushed him away, the action punctuated by a resounding slap across his face.
The slap’s echoing impact reverberated through the room, and Jasper’s left cheek immediately swelled, leaving Rose staring at them in utter shock.
Despite the burning sensation on his cheek, Jasper wore a self-satisfied grin.
Were it not for his striking. good looks, people might have labeled him a pervert..
“Jasper Beckett, get the fuck out! Right now! I don’t want to see you ever!” Alyssa growled. She was blushing from the kiss and tearing up. Even the corners of her lips were red and swollen from their Intimate moment.
His smile deepened. How could she ask him to leave when the evidence of their passionate kiss still 1/2 “Get lost!” Alyssa yelled again, her chest heaving with humiliation.
“Alright, I’ll catch up with you when you have some free time.” She was baffled by his response. What was he talking about? She never said she wanted to meet up!
After giving her a meaningful glance, he reluctantly walked out of the door. As he passed Rose, she caught a whiff of the fresh pine scent on his body, leaving her stunned. By the time she snapped back to reality, he had vanished.
“Madam! H-How are you feeling?” Rose rushed to support Alyssa, whose legs felt weak. She was seething with anger and on the verge of crying.
Rose suggested, “Madam, your ex-husband is behaving like an animal! It’s clearly harassment. We should report him to the police.” Alyssa placed a trembling hand over her racing heart and sighed. She reassured Rose, ‘I’m fine. I’ll take it as being bitten by a wild beast.” Rose was taken aback by the response. She sensed something wasn’t right from how Alyssa avoided her gaze. She hugged Alyssa and said, “Madam, please be honest with me. Have you truly moved on from him?”
