Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 1805

"Got it," Jasper muttered, ending the call. His expression was so grim it seemed like a storm cloud loomed over him.

"This timing is suspicious! Betty sneaks out to meet Zoe in the middle of the night? It practically screams conspiracy. They're clearly in cahoots over the leaked report." Landon's eyes widened with anger. He clenched his fists, slamming them onto the bed with such force it felt like he might break it.

"I fear your sister, Zoe, has allied with Preston in secret. She may have also informed Mr. Harper Senior privately. Otherwise, their plan wouldn't have gone so smoothly. They've likely been planning this for some time."

A memory flickered in Landon's mind. It was the night he delivered the engagement invitation to Cornelius and bumped into Zoe bringing him chicken soup. She had never been so caring before. In hindsight, her sudden kindness was obviously a calculated move.

"She's not my sister!" Landon repeated, his eyes ablaze with hatred. With each repetition, he cursed Zoe in his heart.

"But she's your grandfather and mother's favorite, and according to family records, she's Bill's biological daughter," Jasper reminded him, his hands firmly on Landon's trembling shoulders.

Jasper continued, "Even if our suspicions are correct, we can't act without concrete evidence. Otherwise, they'll have leverage over you in the future."

It was advice Alyssa often gave him, and now Jasper was echoing it to his best friend.

Jasper solemnly cautioned, "Don't think that becoming president will make you immune. They'll still find ways to undermine you, and they could even prevent you from managing Harper Group's affairs. You can't give them that chance.

"Revenge isn't something achieved overnight. Besides, what Zoe did this time pleased Mr. Harper Senior. If you retaliate against her, you'll likely only bring trouble upon yourself."

"As for Betty, I will handle her," Jasper continued, his voice determined.

"But what's the difference between Betty and Zoe?" Landon gripped Jasper's arm, anxiety etching his features. "Mr. Javier might see removing Betty as a slight on the Becketts, giving him leverage to make things difficult for you!"

"Don't worry. I have a plan." Jasper pressed his lips together slightly. "And I believe my wife will have an even better one."

It was already nighttime by the time Jasper returned to Crescent Bay.

Ben and Alyssa went up to him the moment he entered, updating him that Lauren had stirred.

"Is Lauren alright?" Jasper put his arms around Alyssa's waist. He had a concerned look in his eyes. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Alyssa sighed and shook her head. She caressed his icy hands. "She's not doing great. Grandpa kept her company for a while. He wasn't feeling too well, so he went back to his room to rest. Angelina is with Lauren right now. How about Landon? How is he?"

"I sent him to the hospital. He ended up getting a fever after being out in the cold. Fortunately, he's quite fit, so he's hanging in there."

Alyssa lowered her head.

Jasper and Landon were both hopeless romantics.

"Come with me, Lyse."
