Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 288

Chapter 288

While Liana was enjoying the spotlight at Berenike Hotel, Alyssa was driving her sports car up a winding mountain road and enjoying the night breeze.

She sang to the tune of "Burning Revenge "that was playing in the car, seemingly ina good mood. Silas called her at that moment. She picked up and cooed, "Silas!" "Aw, I'm melting!I should have recordedyou and sent it to Axel. He's going to burn in jealousy!" Silas sounded excited. It didn't take much to make a man happy. "Did you call me because you haveeverything arranged?"asked Alyssa.

"Yes, it's done. Jonah has made hisarrangements too."

She replied sweetly, "I trust you and Jonah. By the way, I'm on my way to visit Newton Beckett. I heard that he's the only

one in the family who isn't at Liana's birthday party-Sophia has dragged everyone else there.

"I know he enjoys company and can'tstand loneliness, but he never tells anyone because he doesn't want to burden them. I should keep him company because he adores me."

The look in her eyes softened at the mention of Newton. She couldn't help but feel bad for the old man.

When she was married to Jasper, she always kept Newton company from time to time. She spent time chatting, painting, and checking out antiques. She'd sing for him and bring him to stroll by the beach. She recalled one Valentine's Day when Solana City saw a historic snowfall. She brought some homema de desserts and showed up at Newton's place in the snow.

She vividly remembered the shock on Newton's face when he stared at her

cheeks and nose, which were red from the cold.

"Alice, it's Valentine's Day! Why did youcome to me instead of spending time with Jasper?"

She cooked up an excuse for Jasper while forcing a smile. "He doesn't have time to rest because he's the president of the Beckett Group. He doesn't have a day off on Valentine's. Anyway, I'm happy he remembered and prepared a gift for me."

"Young lady, you are too gentle and kind. You need to toughen up to tame a stubborn man like Jasper. I was like him when I was younger. What my wife did was banish me to the couch. It worked like a charm." Alyssa chuckled at the story.

They took in the winter scenery for a while. He suddenly asked, "Are you afraid of the cold?"

"Come with me to visit your grandma,then."

Newton's face was full of affection, something that Alyss a could never expect from Jasper."I'll clean the snow at her grave. She's afraid of the cold."

"Grandpa! I'm here!" Alyssa's singsongvoice echoed in the living room just like before.

"Alyssa!" She heard a similarly sweet andyouthful voice. Next, Lauren emerged with Newton, who was in a wheelchair.

"Lauren? You're here too." Alyss a wasoverjoyed at the sight of Lauren. She pulled Lauren's thin frame into a tight hug.

Lauren hugged Alyssa as her hand traveled across Alyssa's back. She blinked with her round, lively eyes. "You're thin-you lost some weight. Did you not eat well?

"I did. I am stuffed by the end of everymeal,"Alyssa replied with a smile. She had indeed lost weight due to her stressful workload. Sometimes, she'd have brunch and miss her dinners.

"Alice, come here. Let me take a look!"Newton was grinning ear to ear when he saw Alyssa. He still called her Alice because he was reluctant to make the switch, but Alyssa did not mind. She had no lingering affection for Jasper anyway. Alice White was a part of the past that she left behind. As long as Newton was happy, he could call her by any name.

"Grandpa, you look pale. Did you not restwell?" She went down on one knee by the wheelchair and looked at him worriedly.
