Ch. 741..750
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 741-Javier sat in the audience and looked disdainfully at Jasper. “Look at all the company presidents here.
Which one of them shaved their head to get a crew cut? Are you still serving in the military?
“You should pay more attention to your image. Also, you had surgy but a scar on your scalp.
Why didn’t you wear a wig to cover it?” Jasper lowered his gaze, his tone cold yet confident as he replied, “Everyone in Solana City knows about my injury. So, covering it would be pointless. Besides, even if I’m bald, it won’t affect my good looks.” Javier pursed his lips upon hearing that. Despite having low opinions of many aspects of his son, he had to admit that Jasper had inherited all the best traits from him and Anne. Jasper was basically flawless and perfect.
“I’ll have someone make a realistic wig for you tomorrow. Then, I’ll send it over to you,” Javier insisted.
In fact, it was not about the wig. Javier simply did not like that Jasper was going against him. Hence, he was always looking for opportunities to control the latter.
ong as she “I won’t wear it even if you pass it to me. Alyssaid she likes my current hairstyle.
So, as long likes it, I’ll never change it.” Jasper’s voice immediately softened when he mentioned Alyssa.
“You-” “And now, let’s welcome the president of Beckett Group-Mr. Jasper Beckett!” The audience erupted in thunderous applause. Jasper rose to his feet gracefully, ignoring Javier’s grim expression. Then, he walked toward the stage.
Standing in front of the microphone, Jasper appeared collected and handsome.
His presence was imposing.
One would never suspect that he recently had his head cut open as he looked incredibly energetic. Just as he was about to speak, the phone in his hand vibrated.
In the past, Jasper would ignore it. However, that night, Alyssa was unreachable. That was why he kept his phone with him the whole night.
Jasper worried that he would miss any of her calls or messages. Thus, when his phone vibrated, his hea skipped a beat too.
On the other hand, the cocktail party moved on to the next segment. It was the much-anticipated part of the event, where prominent figures in Solana City’s business sector would give speeches.
Initially, Javier was supposed to take the stage. However, since Jasper had arrived, Javier gave him the chance to address the audience.
Jasper had just recovered from a severe injury, after all. Thus, he needed to make a public appearance to set the record straight on certain rumors regarding him and the Beckett Group.
“You know you’re attending an event tonight. It’s fine if you’re not wearing highend attire, but why didn’t you tidy up your hair?
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 742-With Renee’s ankle twisting, her arms flailed frantically in mid-air. The Hermès bag she held soared, leaving her in a comically awkward sprawl on the ground.
“Ouch! I-It hurts!” she yelped.
er lips were She sat on the floor as tears welled up in her eyes. Even quivering uncontrollably.
In a typical scenario, a man would step forward to help a beautiful woman in distress, especially when she fell because of the man. Who would have thought Jasper was unaffected by the situation?
He walked away fast. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Renee’s sight.
At that moment, Xavier rushed over, too. He merely glanced at Renee, who was pathetically lying on the ground. Then, he followed behind Jasper and left.
In just a short span of seconds, Renee started to question her appearance. She had always been confident with her looks.
It was often said that people would hesitate to help an older lady who fell, but why didn’t anyone help Renee? She was a gorgeous woman, after all.
Dominic happened to come out for a smoke when he saw his daughter in such an embarrassing state. He could not help but frown, asking, “Renee? Why are you sitting on the ground? You look like a mess!” “Dad! You should lend a hand to your daughter, who has just fallen. But instead, you’re standing there making sarcastic remarks!” Renee supported herself on the coffee table and struggled to stand up.
At that point, her ankle was swollen. In addition to that, her Chanel heels had broken as well. She was infuriated and kicked her damaged shoes away.
“I just bumped into Mr. Beckett. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have ended up in such a pathetic state,” Renee explained to Dominic.
“But I wonder why he was in such a hurry,” she added. She remained seated on the couch, wincing in pain.
Initially, she thought she could make a memorable and stunning appearance before Jasper However, it turned into a chaotic mess, Renee was so annoyed that she almost burst into tears.
Upon hearing her words, Dominic recalled how Jasper abruptly left the cocktail party, looking like ther was an urgent sluation. At the thought of that, the former’s gaze became menacing Xavier was sweating profusely as he ran after Jasper at the underground parking lot.
“Mr. Beckett! W-Where are you going? What happened?” Xavier asked. His voice trembled because of now nervous he was.
Jasper’s expression turned frosty as he answered, ‘Alyssa is in trouble end to go find her now!” As he spoke, his jawline tightened, creating a striking and sharp profile. Then, he opened the door of the sports car.
His veins on the back of his hand were popping. Even though he had not lost his temper, his piercing gaze revealed his inner intense emotions.
“I-I’ll follow you! It’s better to have someone with you!” Xavier offered.
Yet, Jasper refused, “There’s no need for that. You drive too slowly. Besides, you can stay back to handle things here.
As soon as he finished speaking, the powerful rumble of the sports car’s engine echoed. In the next second, the car shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.
Xavier watched as the car departed, and his heat tightened. He sighed and muttered, “Madam, you must be safe. Mr. Beckett, you must bring her back safe and sound.” The black Lamborghini flew through the streets of Solana City like lightning.
“Alyssa.. I’m coming. Please be safe. You must be safe!” Jasper mumbled under his breath.
The veins on his forehead were bulging, and his heart was pounding. Without hesitation, he floored the accelerator.
On the passenger seat, his phone displayed a slightly blurry photo. Jasper knew it was a sneaky shot.
In the picture, an unfamiliar man in a well-tailored suit embraced Alyssa. Her silky black hair was down, her gaze was enchanting, and har red lips were seductive.
Who was the man holding her? Was she drunk?
No, Jasper knew that Alyssa never drank with men she was unfamiliar with.
Moreover, she had only drank twice. And both times were with her brothers.
Could it be that he was d:ugged?
As soon as that thought crossed his mind, Jasper felt a pang of pain in his chest. His eyes gradually
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 743-On the west side, in a hotel, Jasper entered the lobby with his suit drenched in sweat. His phone, held in his sweaty palm, vibrated continuously.
He looked down at the screen and saw an incoming call from an anonymeet member.
“Hello,” Jasper said in a deep voice, his throat felt dry.
“Mr. Beckett, it’s room 2051, on the 20th floor.” A stranger’s voice on the other end said, “I left the key card in the flowerpot in the 20th-floor stairwell, if you want to save Ms. Taylor, you need to act quickly. Delaying any further could lead to unwanted consequences! Make sure you don’t regret your decision.” Jasper was about to take a step forward when his face suddenly darkened. He asked, “Who are you, really? Did you send me those pictures?
There was silence on the other end.
“Are you a paparazzo or acting on someone’s rders? How did you get the hotel room key card?” Jasper, with quick thinking, asked the most crucial question.
“Good question, Mr. Beckett. But I can’t disclose those details to you. All I can say is that I have a purpose for my actions.” Jasper found the whole situation odd but had to act quickly due to the urgency of the moment.
He took the elevator to the 20th floor, and the room key card for room 2051 was indeed in the potted plant.
Jasper’s heart raced as he approached the door. It felt as if his heart were about to burst out from his chest.
On his journey here, he grappled with his thoughts, contemplating numerous possibilities.
Despite his efforts, he couldn’t convince himself, especially upon witnessing Alyssa entering the hotel with a stranger!
Holding the key card, Jasper swiped it to open the room dour.
His throat fantened, and he slowly walked in.
The room was dimly lit, quiet, and had a subtle floral scent. To his surprise, the chaotic and unacceptable scene he had imagined was nowhere to be seen.
“Lyse… Lyse?” Jasper’s heart pounded as he called out her name in a hoarse voice.
There was no response.
His chest felt constricted as he slowly moved toward the bedroom.
In that moment, he faintly heard a rustling sound in the room, and countless terrifying thoughts inundated his mind like a flood!
“Lyse!” Jasper’s eyes reddened.
Unable to wait any longer, Jasper forcefully pushed open the room door.
A sharp female voice suddenly filled the dim room with a tone of intense fear!
awa The next moment, Jasper saw a woman before him, her body delicate as porcelain and completely unclothed, like a fresh rose with glistening dewdrops.
His mind spun, pupils shrinking, and the veins on his temples bulged.
The woman before him was clearly Zoe!
Zoe’s long hair partially covered her chest, and her delicate body trembled in the soft lighting.
She exuded a mixture of innocence and desire, provoking a sense of pity and an overwhelming protective instinct. However, her calm demeanor hid a sly glint in her eyes, revealing a cunning nature.
Jasper’s mind reeled, and he quickly turned away, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.
The anger and humiliation of being played with sent shivers down his spine, with his every nerve felt ready to snap.
“Jasper… how did you how did you come in?” Zoe’s voice was soft, with a hint of trembling, and she crossed arms in front of her chest. “Jasper, my body… Did you see everything?” “Put on your clothes,’ said Jasper, his knuckles white as if the veins on the back of his hand were about to explode, his shoulders quivering with anger.
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 744-Jasper couldn’t explain. He had to leave immediately.
“I’ll call your brother and have him come to pick you up right away!” After saying that, Jasper turned to leave.
Jasper! No, please don’t go.” Zoe threw herself at him, tightly hugging him from behind, her naked body pressed against his. She pleaded, “Jasper, I’m scared. I’m really scared. Please don’t leave me, okay?” Jasper looking disgusted. He ordered coldly, “Let go.” “No! I don’t want to!” Zoe, without hesitation, pressed her body against his masculine back and continued, “Throughout my life, I’ve never had a boyfriend, and my body has always been untouched by anyone “Now that you’ve seen my body, Jasper, you can’t just walk away without taking responsibility!” “Taking responsibility?” Jasper bit his lip and said, “I’ll only be responsible for one woman in my life, and that’s Alyssa.” Following his statement, he forcefully disentangled Zoe’s arms from his and broke free.
Zoe couldn’t match the strength of a six feet two inches tall man. She was quickly overpowered.
She ended up falling onto the bed.
In the blink of an eye, Jasper had already rushed out the door.
“Jasper Beckett! I undressed and practically offered myself to you, and you didn’t even spare a glance.
Why?” a Zoe, angry and frustrated, pounded the bed with her fist. In the dim light, she gritted her teeth, her hair disheveled, looking like someone driven to madness.
Jasper, panting, walked to the door and yanked it open.
“Mr. Beckett! It’s Mr. Beckett!” In an instant, Jasper’s surprised face was overwhelmed by the blinding flash of the camera.
At the room’s entrance, a group of reporters had arrived, blocking the door with cameras and snapping pictures of Jasper like crazy.
Jasper’s breath caught, and his handsome face paled instantly. His lips quivered, and it felt like an immense weight was crushing his chest, making it hard to breathe.
He finally understood.
He realized he had been ensnared in a set trap from the moment he received those photos.
No, this trap had many flaws if one thought about it carefully.
The person behind this skillfully manipulated his love for Alyssa, accurately predicting that he would lose his composure for her, leading him into a series of mistakes.
“Jasper … Oh my! Why are there so many reporters?” At this moment, Zoe pretended to look confused, with her bare shoulders covered only in a while towel, confidently walking out of the bedroom.
Her acting was truly remarkable!
“It’s Zoe, the heiress of the Harper family?” “It’s Zoe! It’s really her! Quick, take photos! We’ve got a headline!” “Jasper and Zoe met privately in a hotel room late at night. Zoe wasn’t even wearing any clothes. This news will be trending!” Zoe hid behind Jasper, appearing as if she was relying on him for protection.
Jasper’s face turned pale, and sweat slowly trickled down his face.
“Mr. Beckett! Are you and Ms. Zoe dating? Otherwise, why did you book a hotel room together?” “Mr. Beckett! Just admit it, you’re both adulis. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about!” “Ms. Zoe! How about you tell us? Are you guys actually dating?” “Get out.” Jasper’s eyes turned cold, his voice menacing as he demanded. All of you, get out!”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 745-Jameson donned a patient’s gown in a hospital VIP ward. Then, he reclined in bed. His handsome and delicate face lost its color, and his lips resembled pale, wilting petals, portraying a frail image that evoked sympathy.
“Mr. Schmidt, why are you so foolish?” Todd stood by the bed, still visibly shaken. “Mr. Schmidt, do you realize how dangerously close you came to being seriously hurt by that horse? if it had trampled you, you might have lost your life right then, and all your hardships and plans in Kontina would have been for nothing!” Jameson gradually opened his eyes and smirked. “Todd, it seems you’re genuinely concerned and care about me.” Todd was startled. Tears welled up in his eyes as he began, “Mr. Schmidt..
He had been with Jameson for eight years, first as a runner and now as a secretary. Although his role had changed, his status hadn’t. He remained a devoted subordinate.
Jameson was exceedingly shrewd and suspicious, maintaining a cold and guarded distance from everyone.
Over the years, men and women, except Alyssa, couldn’t get close to him.
Nobody could open up his heart.
Todd didn’t have any close friends, so when Jameson addressed him as “Todd”, it undoubtedly brought them closer and made Todd feel like he was one of Jameson’s own. That moved him to tears.
“Mr. Schmidt, health is your most important asset. You must take good care of yourself!” “I’ll do anything for Lyse!*
Jameson took a deep breath as he mentioned Alyssa, and his typically cold gaze softened. He said, “And I also want to show Lyse that I can be someone willing to risk my life for her-it’s not just Jasper.
In the future, when she needs help, she’ll think of me first instead of Jasper.” The second sentence was intriguing.
Todd understood the implication and nodded with a serious look. “You’re right.
How can a man like Jasper, with a promiscuous and complicated life, deserve someone like Ms. Alyssa?
“Ms. Alyssa is smart. She won’t fall into the same trap twice, will she?” Jameson’s eyes grew colder. He didn’t respond.
At that moment, his phone, placed beside the pillow, vibrated.
He picked it up and checked the screen. But before he could respond, the ward’s door opened.
“Jimmy, are you asleep?” Upon hearing Alyssa’s voice, Jameson quickly hid the phone under his pillow and greeted her with a warm smile.
“Lyse, I told you not to worry about me. I’m fine.” Alyssa entered the room and observed the man’s pale, fragile appearance, which saddened her. /ter all, he had become like this to save her.
“I’ve also said that I’ll take full responsibility for your injuries, Alyssa said as she walked up to him with a gentle tone.
Jameson’s heart warmed, and his eyes grew slightly teary.
“Ms. Alyssa, you also fell. Are you okay?” Todd had a keen eye, and he asked with concern.
“No big deal, I’m fine. I’m concerned about you, Jameson. You have a broken arm, cracked ribs, and five external wounds. You need to be hospitalized. You need to rest,’ Alyssa calmly reminded Jameson.
Alyssa had some minor scrapes on her, but she didn’t seem concerned.
Jameson chuckled lightly and said, “Lyse, I don’t need to be hospitalized. I know my body.” “What’s with you men? Jasper, too, after such a major surgery, didn’t stay in the hospital! Is the hospital haunted, or you can’t afford the hospital bills?” Alyssa’s lips moved quickly as she spoke in a rapid-fire manner.
As she finished speaking, she suddenly froze, clenching her fingers tightly.
For some reason, she couldn’t help but think of Jasper. Thoughts of him often overwhelmed her. She couldn’t help it.
Jameson’s heart tightened as he fought against the jealousy woiling up. His pale lips twitched as he said, Lyse, it looks like you really care about Mr. Beckett. You can think of him anytime, anywhere. It’s clear that he holds an important place in your heart.” Alyssa took a deep breath and stared at him with a calm look. “Do you want to hear the truth?” Jameson’s chest tightened, and he pressed his lips together.
“He’s indeed important to me.”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 746-Faced with Alyssa’s honesty, Jameson felt a surge of anger. His hands clenched the bed sheets tightly.
“I’ve been married to Jasper for three years, but I’ve known him much longer than that. It’s definitely longer than you might think.” Alyssa spoke calmly, as if chatting with a friend, but she couldn’t deny that mentioning those past events still caused an ache in her heart.
She continued, “Once, there was nothing in my life but him. Later, he divorced me, and it felt like he had taken my entire heart with him. My body had a void from then on, like an irreparable disability.
“If you were me, could you ignore it? Could you pretend that nothing ever happened?” “Lyse, I…” *But don’t think that I’m so dependent on Jasper that I can’t live without him.
That’s too extreme.” Alyssa waved her hand, a momentary sadness crossing her beautiful eyes. “Life must go on. I just need some time.” “Lyse, no matter how long it takes, I’m willing to wait for you.” Jameson’s rale face showed signs of pain as he tried to sit up, but Alyssa quickly stopped him.
*Jimmy! You’re a patient now. Stay still!” “It could be decades, centuries, or even forever. I’m willing to wait. I’ll wait for you to heal. I’ll wait for you to find peace. I’ll wait for you to notice me Jameson’s pale lips quivered as he delicately held her hand, causing her fingertips to turn red.
“Let go. Please don’t be like this!” Alyssa’s eyes grew wide, and she quickly withdrew her hand.
Jameson, weak, was jolted and zimost fell from the bed.
“Mr. Schmidt, be carefull Todd quickly supported him and turned to Alyssa with a pleading look. “Ma Alyssa, I beg you M Schmidt got seriously hurt because of you Can you please show a little care for him? Even just “Todd, forget it Jon’t pressure Alyssa Jameson coughed, clutching his chest, and said. It’s not her fault, It’s mine. I pushed too hard.” Alyssa furrowed her brows but didn’t say anything.
In that instant, a soft “ding” resonated from a phone in the room.
In quick succession, another “ding” followed. Then, another.
All three phones chimed simultaneously.
Alyssa was confused. It was a coincidence for two phones to ring simultaneously, but not for all three.
She retrieved her phone, glancing at the screen to find Twitter notifications. The display revealed, “Jasper and Zoe’s Secret Affair Exposed” and “Jasper and Zoe’s Hotel Room Secret Rendevouz with Video and Photos.” Alyssa stared at the screen. Her eyes turned red as her heart sank into a deep, cold abyss.
“Oh my! Alyssa, Mr. Schmidt, what’s this trending topic?” Todd swiped the screen in shock and said, “Mr. Beckett and the Harpers’ daughter in a hotel room? This is really scandalous! Mr. Schmidt, take a look at this news. Both families are prominent in Solana, and this hotel room situation, private affairs. If this gets out, it would be embarrassing Jameson remained composed. His eyelids lowered, and dark, long lashes concealed a hint of his restrained emotions.
*Jimmy, I have to handle something. I’ll be back later to check on you.” Alyssa turned stiffly. She moved toward the door, her steps heavy. Her shoulders trembled subtly.
‘Lyse!” Jameson called out.
Alyssa halted her steps. She took a deep breath.
*No matter what happens, I’ll always be by your side. in this world, anyone can betray you, but I, Jameson Schmidt, will never betray you!”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 747-Alyssa slammed the bathroom door and sat on the toilet. She bit her lips and scrolled through Twitter’s trending topics and comments in a frenzy.
Large beads of sweat fell onto the screen one by one.
“Hahaha! I knew it. Men are all the same. They just can’t stay loyal. Wasn’t there a rumor about Jasper getting close to the Taylor family’s daughter? He kept defending her, and now he’s involved with Zoe.
How can he be so unfaithfu/ “It’s officially confirmed. He’s the scumbag of the century!” “It’s all a lie. Let me tell you-Jasper just wants to marry into the Taylor family and become a billionair son-in-law! If he really ends up with Alyssa, it’s a union between the Beckett and Taylor dynasties. With Winston as his father-in-law, who would dare to challenge him in the whole of Andgalbia?” “Huh? Jasper’s a billionaire himself. He doesn’t need Alyssa.” “Hah, don’t be naive. Who doesn’t like having more money?” Alyssa’s eyes grew cold as she raised her hand, tightly gripping her collar. She pressed down firmly.
However, she couldn’t manage the pain that seemed to tear her heart in two.
“But then again, Zoe’s skinny figure is like a stick. She doesn’t compare to the beauty of the Taylor family’s daughter. In my opinion, she’s not even as pretty as Liana. Why is Jasper’s taste in women going backward?” “She’s a musical genius. Maybe Jasper likes women with an artistic touch.
Same as Liana, right?” At this moment, Jonah’s phone rang.
It rang multiple times before Alyssa could collect her thoughts and answer.
“Lyse? Lyse? Are you there?” Jonah’s voice was filled with concern as he called her name repeatedly.
*Jonah,” Alyssa softly replied.
“Lyse, where are you?” “In Solana,” she couldn’t muster the strength for any extra words, “Lyse, you must have seen those trending topics about Jasper, right?” Jonah asked cautiously.
Alyssa could only hummed In response.
“Are you okay?” “Yeah. Why wouldn’t I be? He found someone he likes.” Alyssa chuckled softly, her eyes reddening. “Zoe is Landon’s only sister. So, if they become a couple, they will be closer. Jasper’s future will be much easier with the Harpor Jonah’s tone became serious. “Lyse, I want to know your true feelings.” ‘This is what’s in my heart.” Alyssa clenched her first, feeling the pain in her knuckles.
“You’ve been married to Jasper for three years, and with your 13 years of knowing him, do you think he would do something like having an affair with the Harper family’s daughter? Is he a man who can’t control his desires?” Jonah raised a valid question. “If he were a shallow man driven by lust, he would have had a child with Liana long ago. You’ve been married for three years. How could he not be intimate with you? Don’t you think there’s something suspicious about this?
“Also, I’ve heard that there were many reporters outside the hotel room. It was as if they knew in advance that something would happen and were waiting there. All of this seems like a setup by someone else, doesn’t it, Lyse?” Alyssa’s eyes briefly showed emotion, but she remained cold as she said, “Whether it’s a setup or not, it’s ultimately his decision, isn’t it?
“Even if it were a trap set by Zoe, if he chose to ignore it and refrained from going to the hotel or that room, could Zoe still force him to go? Would those reporters have captured all of this?” Jonah remained silent.
“There is no smoke without fire. If Jasper showed no interest, none of this would have happened.” Alyssa wore a serious and cold expression as she remarked, “Well, the name ‘Jasper Beckett’ isn’t just for show.” “Lyse, I think you should hear Jasper’s explanation.” ‘There’s no need for that, Jonah.” Alyssa’s throat tightened. Her gaze distant, her dark eyes filled with a sense of melancholy.
“Jasper and I’ve ended things long ago. Whoever he is with is his choice, and I have no right to intervene.’ After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Within two seconds, another call came in.
It was Jasper.
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 748-The screen showed a string of numbers instead of a name.
Jasper had always had two numbers, one for personal use and one for work.
She remembered them both very well.
He would only use his personal phone to call her privately, so this time was a bit unusual.
Alyssa’s heart tightened, and she answered the call, slowly placing the phone to her ear, but remained silent.
“Lyse!” Jasper’s voice was hoarse and unrecognizable.
Alyssa didn’t reply. She kept her lips tightly sealed. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly.
“Lyse, please believe me, I’ve been set up by someone!” Jasper knew it wasn’t easy to get her to answer the call, so he didn’t waste time and got to the point.
This is a complex setup. Zoe couldn’t have done it alone. Someone must be backing her!
“And t the bait set by the other party wasn’t Zoe. It was you!” Alyssa, with her eyes cast down, spoke slowly. “Let’s meet at the City Center Amusement Park near KS World in half an hour.” If she hadn’t answered Jonah’s call just now, Jasper wouldn’t have had the chance to talk to her.
Now, she really wanted to hear what Jasper had to say.
“Mr. Schmidt, Ms. Alyssa has left the hospital. She was driving by herself.” Todd quickly returned to inform Jameson. “She stayed in the bathroom for quite a while, and when she left, she looked furious and even paler than you!” Jameson leaned against the head of the bed and curled his lips. He wished for her anger, believing the more intense, the better.
A profound ache, like scraping to the bone, seemed the only effective way to expunge Jasper entirely from her heart!
“Have someone closely follow Ms. Alyssa. And get a car ready for me. I’ll follow later to find her.” Todd had thought about advising him. But he understood Jameson wouldn’t listen, so he simply agreed.
That’s not necessary.” Jameson made a subtle gesture, and the pain prompted beads of sweat on his forehead, causing his jawline to stiffen.
FOOR Todd felt disheartened observing Jameson in such a state. He sensed that this time, Jameson was wholeheartedly devoted and deeply in love with Alyssa.
He couldn’t comprehend how someone as astute as Jameson could appear worn and haggard for love. Jameson was competitive and never allowed himself to be in a weak position.
However, only Jameson knew what he was doing in his own heart.
In love, being dominant wasn’t always beneficial. Sometimes, being humble and showing vulnerability would yield better results.
Moreover, Alyssa was naturally a strong-willed woman, and after the hardships she endured because of Jasper, he wouldn’t let her suffer again. He would ensure she had the pride and self-esteem she deserved.
At this moment, the phone under the pillow vibrated.
Tood quickly picked it up and handed it to Jameson, saying, “Mr. Schmidt, it’s Ms. Arman.” Jameson’s eyes darkened as he answered the phone. “Hello.” “Mr. Schmidt, how was my performance?” Ambe’s voice carried a cheerful tone with a touch of seduction. “I sent those photos to Jasper, and he fell for it immediately. He rushed to the hotel and jumped into the trap eagerly.
“Hahaha! These supposed young geniuses and business prodigies are foolish when it comes to women, thinking only with their lower half of their body. These kinds of men aren’t a match to you.” “Did you send those photos to his phone via text message?” Jameson asked casually.
“Yes
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 749-“Well, that makes things easier.” Jameson smiled faintly and added, “You did a big favor for me tonight.
Thanks for your hard work.” “Mr. Schmidt, please don’t say that. I owe my life to you, and I’m willing to do anything for you,” Amber said softly, full of affection.
Jameson’s tone was stem, “I’ll send you a plane ticket and some money. You can go and enjoy yourself for a while. If you need more, just let Todd know, and he’ll send it to you.
e away?
Amber’s breath caught, and she became anxious. Thank you, Mr. Schmidt. Are you sending me ‘Jasper fell for our trap. He won’t let it slide. He’ll start an investigation right away. He’s not foolish, but Ms. Alyssa has thrown him off this time.
‘To avoid unnecessary trouble, you should lay low for now. Todd will temporarily handle things on The Millennium’s side.” “But…” “Listen to me.” Jameson’s voice turned cold suddenly.
Amber’s throat tightened as she muttered, “Yes, Mr. Schmidt.” Alyssa got to the park first because she was nearby.
The temperature had dropped suddenly that night, and heavy snowfall made the typically lively park exceptionally empty.
Alone on a bench, Alyssa stared at the quiet snowy night. She remembered the past three years when she used to come here during her free time, watching young couples sharing cotton candy and ice cream as they exchanged affectionate gestures.
She also observed young married couples coming with their children, creating a warm and happy atmosphere. Back then, she ofter wondered when it would be her turn to be like them.
Could she have a day like an ordinary couple, walking hand in hand with Jasper in the park, sharing sweet moments?
Alyssa’s heart tightened as she exhaled visible puffs of breath. Her eyelashes glistened with tears.
At that moment, an ice cream truck passed by, prompting her to buy a vanilla ice cream.
Before she could take a bite, hurried footsteps crunched through the snow toward her.
“Lyse.” Alyssa held the ice cream tightly. Her heart raced as she slowly looked up.
Standing before her was Jasper, his thin suit and head covered in snow. His face and ears were red from the cold, but what captured her attention the most were his beautiful eyes.
Alyssa felt a lump in her throat. The scenarios she had imagined so many times hadn’t turned out as she had expected.
“Lyse, don’t sit here. It’s too cold. You’ll catch a cold.” Jasper’s throat tightened, filled with deep concern. He reached out his hand to her without hesitation.
Alyssa swatted his hand away and spoke in a tone colder than the snow. “So, you do know it’s cold. If you have something to say, say it.” ‘It was a setup. Someone is plotting against me to create a scandal. Someone wanted to come between us! Jasper explained urgently, his distress evident.
“Us?” Alyssa laughed out loud. “There’s no us Jasper’s heart ached.
“Besides, in our divorced and estranged relationship, there’s nothing left to come between us,” Alyssa said.
‘Lyse, is this how you truly feel? Is this what you want?” Jasper’s throat felt like it had been stabbed. A strong sense of unease washed over him.
Alyssa stood up slowly, glaring coldly at him. “Jasper, even if this was a trap, wasn’t it a fact that you went to the hotel to meet Zoe? It seems that Ms. Harper holds a significant place in your heart,” Alyssa said.
‘I didn’t go to meet Zoe! I went to see you!”
Can’t Win Me Back Chapter 750-Jasper’s eyes were red as he took a step forward. His warm and shaky breath brushed against Alyssa’s red nose as he reached out to hug her.
‘Don’t touch me!” Suddenly, Alyssa, like a hedgehog with raised spines, stepped back and threw the ice cream she was holding directly onto his shirt.
“Lyse, I’m telling the truth!” Jasper’s arms hung in the air, torn between wanting to approach her and fearing her resentment. He was in such a tangle that he was on the brink of madness.
Jasper exclaimed, “I called you so many times tonight, but you didn’t answer! I thought something had happened to you, and I’ve been worried about you all night!!
Alyssa was startled.
So many times? When did he even call?
Was he making things up?
Alyssa didn’t receive any calls.
Jasper was a liar-a liar who didn’t even make the effort to craft a believable lie!
“I received photos from an anonymous number. They showed you being embraced by a stranger, entering a hotel together! I was worried for your safety, so I went to the hotel to find you.
That’s when the scene with the reporters occurred!” Alyssa looked at him with a mocking expression “Jasper, if you’re going to make up an excuse, at least make it believable. If I had known you were going to say these baseless and nonsensical lies, I wouldn’t have bothered coming to see you at all.” “I have proof.” Jasper gritted his teeth and, with hands shaking from the cold, he pulled out his phone.
Alyssa’s heart raced, her lips pursed. She was giving him the benefit of the doubt.
“These are the photos I received. Look, isn’t the person in these photos.
Suddenly, Jasper’s eyes widened, fixated on the phone screen, repeatedly checking the messages in the The photos sent to him via text messages had all vanished!
He swiped the screen frantically with trembling fingers. His perplexed stare gave the impression it could penetrate the screen, but he couldn’t locate the photos serving as evidence Alyssa couldn’t believe that the photos had all vanished.
She forced a smile, but her eyes lacked any hint of amusement. She spoke coldly, sending a chill through Jasper’s heart. “Jasper, if you haven’t thought of a good reason or excuse, there’s really no need to rush to see me “I didn’t want to see you before, and I don’t want to see you now or in the future.” As Jasper watched her walk past him, Jasper felt as if he had fallen into an icy abyss.
“Lyse! Lyse, don’t go!” He was about to stop her when another voice said, “Lyse.” Alyssa looked up and saw Jameson standing a few steps away. He was still wearing a patient’s gown, covered only by a sheepskin coat. His face was paler than the snow.
*Jimmy! Why did you leave the hospital? Don’t you realize you’re still injured?” Alyssa rushed to Jameson’s side, looking displeased. “How did you come here?
How did you know I was here?” “After you left the hospital, I couldn’t stop worrying, so I had someone follow you. But don’t get me wrong. I’m not stalking you. I just want to protect you.” As he spoke, Jameson weakly breathed and expressed concern, “How could I let you, a girl, go out alone so late at night? That’s against my conscience.” Jasper’s features adopted a chilly demeanor, and his gaze became as cutting as a knife. It was as if he wanted to tear Jameson apart!
“Let’s go back. It’s too cold outside.” Alyssa helped him. She was ready to leave.
“Was it you, Jameson?” The man’s voice, sharp as a blade, cut through, deep and magnetic, hoarse with a hint of anger.
“Mr. Beckett, you had an affair with Zoe Harper, and the paparazzi captured your hotel rendezvous How Jameson couldn’t help but laugh, his eyes filled with mockery. “Isn’t this a case of mutual affection between you two?”
