Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
Chapter 374

Chapter 374

"Sophia is a calculative cunt. I'm concerned that they might try something against you. I wanted to give

you a heads-up so you can be prepared," said Jasper.

Alyssa's clear eyes flickered before she turned away.

"That's all. I'll leave you to your work now." He shot her another loaded gaze before leaving.

"Wait, Jasper," she suddenly called out to him. He felt his chest tighten as he swiftly turned back. "Why did you tell me all of that? You're the type to look at the big picture. Whoever from the Beckett Group takes over the Ada Kingsley account will still boost the influence and reputation of Berenike Hotel. It's something you've been working on." She threw him a quizzical look. "So, why did you tell me that?" "Because I want you to win," he responded with a genuine and innocent look in his eyes. It was a rarity after his many years of hustling in business.

"And why do you want me to win?"

"You were once my wife-" Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She cut him off with a scoff. "You never showed me any kindness when we were married. What's all the

talk about gratitude after the divorce? Is this a joke? 2

"Leave, now. I won't send you off."

Defeated for the second time, he felt a lump in his chest, as though he had choked on the pastry.

At night, Betty showed up at the Harper Residence. Zoe had called Betty earlier that night, inviting the

latter to the Harper Residence to discuss urgent matters.

The ladies shuffled into Zoe's private music studio and closed the door behind them.

"Zoe, why did you call me so late at night?" Betty sounded curious.

"It's been five days since KS World announced their partnership with Ada Kingsley. Have you figured out a

way to knock out that Alyssa bitch?" Zoe crossed her arms and interrogated Betty.

Betty's pride was challenged. Her temper flared because no one had ever talked to her with that attitude

at home.

She grumbled, "It's only been five days. I'm not a superhuman, Zoe. It takes time to come up with a

"I was being rash. I didn't know that the desserts meant so much to you. Sorry," he apologized, knowing that he was in the wrong. Therefore, he was ready to take whatever she hurled at him. Her lashes trembled briefly before she turned her back to him and washed her hands in the sink. She

remarked impatiently, "I thought you were here for work matters? Spit it out. As you can see, I don't have all day. You're just causing trouble here."

He choked and breathed heavily. "I am here to tell you that I'm no longer in charge of Ada Kingsley's wedding planning."

Her hands paused under the flowing tap. She chuckled. "Well, of course. She's already signed the deal with KS World. The only thing you're responsible for now is the controversy surrounding Berenike Hotel." Ignoring her taunts, he continued, "Javier has handed the responsibility over to Betty."

Alyssa finally turned to face him, a frown on her face.

"You're a smart woman, and you know that things are not as simple as they seem," he mumbled with worry in his eyes as he glanced at her.

"Did you make the trip just to tell me this? Typical Jasper Beckett, always so self-centered." She sneered and placed a hand on her hip. "Let me guess, you are still upset after losing the bid. So, you came complaining about Betty, hoping I'll deal with her. Are you using me to seek your revenge?

"Even if Betty wanted to play dirty, that halfwit wouldn't stand a chance against me. She'd need to be

reborn for a better shot."

Jasper's tense jaw relaxed a little. He smiled gently, thinking that Alyssa was rather adorable when she was cussing at others, as long as he was not the subject.

"Even so, Betty is not that dumb. She's got Sophia backing her. Anything she hasn't considered, Sophia will help her strategize."
