Can't Win Me Back Chapter 1808
The more one knew their enemy, the higher their chances of victory. Just like Alyssa predicted Jameson's rash move against David, she also knew Betty would be brimming with pride right now.While the rest of the Becketts reeled from Lauren's ordeal, Betty reveled in worldly pleasures. She barhopped and indulged in excessive drinking. Fueled by alcohol, she even gossiped about her autistic sister with her unsavory friends. She exploited her family's pain for entertainment, releasing years of pent-up hatred.Since Sophia's death, Betty had kept a low profile. She didn't dare to make any rash moves either. However, after joining forces with Zoe, a realization dawned on her—even without Sophia, she could still hold her own against those people. She could manipulate them as she pleased. That night, chaos reigned in the private room. Betty was engaged in frenzied dancing with a charming male model, egged on by the surrounding crowd. Intoxicated by alcohol, she shamelessly struck vari

Landon spent a single, sleepless night at the hospital. He worked tirelessly, making phone calls to arrange a press conference and contacting renowned psychiatrists and psychologists worldwide, all to secure the best treatment for Lauren.Cornelius, however, seemed determined to overwhelm Landon. He disregarded Landon's well-being and dumped nearly all the company's affairs on him. Jordan could only watch helplessly, on the verge of tears.The next morning, while receiving an IV drip, Landon received a call from Angelina. Upon hearing that Lauren was more stable, he yanked the needle out immediately. Then, he got up and headed out the door as he threw on his black coat. "Jordan, get the car!" "Mr. Landon, waiting for the medication to finish wouldn't delay your visit!" Jordan exclaimed. Landon's suffering was evident. He'd lost a significant amount of weight in just two or three days, and it pained Jordan to see him like that."I'll be fine," Landon replied tersely, already st

Landon's mind conjured images of Cornelius' cruel words, tearing down the happiness he'd fought so valiantly for. Watching Landon's face pale in panic, tears welling in his eyes, Ben felt a pang of guilt. Even so, he could only say in a low voice, "Mr. Landon, I'm sure you're very familiar with Ms. Lauren's condition. "Mr. Newton never intended to marry her off, as marriage isn't suitable for her. With Mr. Newton, Mr. Jasper, and Ms. Alyssa, she has all the care she needs for life.""Rather than being somebody's wife, Ms. Lauren is more suited to live a carefree life with the Becketts. You're not wrong, though. One could only say that this was a destined meeting, but not one meant to last."When you get back home, don't make things awkward with your family. Mr. Newton doesn't expect you to fight against them. Let's just put an end to things here. At least you've got beautiful memories to look back upon. Don't you think so?" Ben knew how cruel his words were toward Landon, who w

After a night of excessive partying, Betty was woken up by a waitress in the washroom. She didn't even have time to clean up the filth from the lower part of her body before she slipped out through the back door. By the time she stumbled out, the sun was high in the sky. It was already the next afternoon. In no condition to return to Seaview Manor looking like a mess, Betty returned to her exclusive suite at the Berenike Hotel to scrub away the remnants of the previous night. Vivid memories of her encounter with the muscular model kept replaying in her mind."Damn," she thought, "size really does matter."It was a shame she hadn't exchanged contact information with him. She would have enjoyed a repeat performance.Once cleaned up and dressed in fresh clothes provided by a staff member, Betty was once again the picture of a refined lady. She instructed her driver to take her back to Seaview Manor.Upon entering, she heard voices coming from the living room."Do we have visitors

Orlander boomed with laughter, his voice radiating warmth and generosity. "My son has been smitten with Lauren since school! After seeing her again at the Schmidt's cocktail party, he couldn't get her out of his mind. Freddy genuinely cares for Lauren. Your concerns are unfounded!"Minnie chimed in, "Exactly! You could say Freddy and Lauren are childhood sweethearts!"Betty scoffed inwardly. Childhood sweethearts indeed, except Lauren wasn't Freddy's sweetheart.Javier's frown eased upon hearing their words.The Hodgsons then left Seaview Manor in their luxury car. Orlander and Minnie sat together, with Freddy facing them. "It seems Mr. Javier has a favorable impression of you." Orlander sat with his legs crossed. He had now come round. In a more relaxed tone, he remarked, "While Lauren may not be your social equal, you're right—marrying her would boost my chances in future elections. Moreover, your career prospects would certainly improve as Javier's son-in-law."Though Fre

Betty's breath hitched. The sight of Jasper was like a predator spotting its prey, sending a primal jolt of fear through her. She longed to disappear, to vanish into some dark, forgotten corner.Javier shot Jasper a cold glance before rising and approaching them. "Dad, why didn't you tell me that you were coming? I could have welcomed you properly." "I'm not a guest here; I'm returning to my own home. I don't need a grand welcome," Newton replied sarcastically, his tone laced with disdain for Javier. Their strained relationship was palpable.Javier's expression darkened at his father's sharp retort. It was a clear reminder that Seaview Manor belonged to Newton, not him—just because he lived there, it didn't mean that he owned the place. "Grandpa, I heard that Lauren has been recuperating at your place. How is she? Is she feeling better?" Betty hurried over and stood behind Javier. She immediately made herself look like she was showing concern for her sister. "Lauren is doing mu

Betty continued, "Jasper can't just pin everything on me because of what happened before! I won't take the blame!"Jasper, even if you want to confront someone about what happened to Lauren, you should start with the Harpers! Are you trying to stir up more trouble at home?" Javier glared at Jasper angrily, clearly siding with Betty.In truth, he wasn't particularly fond of Betty.What angered him was the fact that Jasper and Newton were singing the same tune. They looked like they were trying to sideline him as the head of the family. He couldn't stand it."Landon will handle the Harpers. As for our side, there's no need for you two to worry. I'll take care of it."Jasper's icy gaze returned to Betty's face. "Betty, I'll ask you one last time. Did you give Lauren's diagnosis report to the Harpers?""No! It has nothing to do with me!" Betty glared with crimson eyes, adamantly denying her involvement."Very well."Jasper raised his voice. "Xavier."Xavier, who had been waiting o

Finally, Betty completely broke down. She slumped to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably. "Yes... It was me..."Everyone was stunned.Javier was dumbfounded. "What did you say? Say that again.""Mom gave me that report. I handed it over to Zoe. That's how it got out."Betty wept tragically. With the truth exposed, she had no choice but to come clean to protect herself.Compared to the video spreading nationwide and becoming a spectacle, admitting fault seemed like the better option.In the end, she was still a member of the Beckett family. So what if she schemed against Lauren?Her father, who placed utmost importance on both his own reputation and that of the family, would undoubtedly come forward to shield her."Why would Sophia give you the diagnosis report?" Newton was so furious that he had difficulty breathing."I-I don't know... Maybe she'd gone crazy from all the drugs she took.""You used Sophia's notorious behavior as leverage, threatening her to give you something t

Jonah's gaze burned with a mix of longing, sorrow, and something deeply affectionate. The world swam back into focus as Julien looked at Jonah. Without preamble, he asked, "Are you new? How much do you charge per night?"Light-headed and grinning, Julien reached out a hand, his fingers brushing softly against Jonah's cheek. "You're pretty good-looking," he said, his voice slurred. Then his expression shifted. "Why do you… look so much like someone I hate with every fiber of my being?"Jonah's heart clenched. Even so, he slid his arms around Julien's waist. Trembling, he pulled Julien into his arms. "I'm new here. Could you help me meet my target tonight, Mr. Lovelace?"Julien's eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Jonah. Jonah's eyes teared up as he held Julien's waist tightly. "I promise you won't be disappointed," he said, his voice deep. Watching from the shadows below the stage, Evan nearly gagged at Jonah's sultry tone. Was this really the Judas he knew? The man sounded downri

The bar was alive with striking lights and thundering music, and the air was thick with the scent of tobacco and alcohol. The atmosphere was one of moral decay—corrupt, degrading, and vile. "Where's Julien?" Jonah's voice cut through the noise, his tone icy and sharp. When Jonah stepped inside, the eyes of several men turned toward him, their gazes filled with illicit intent."Why, hello there. Are you here alone? Are you feeling lonely?" A sexy man sauntered over, draping himself over Jonah's shoulders. He let his hands linger with a playful squeeze. "If you're bored, I'd be happy to keep you company." Jonah's expression darkened. His hands trembled, veins bulging with barely contained rage. Suddenly, Evan burst through the crowd, his face twisting in alarm at the sight of Jonah surrounded by a swarm of predatory men. Evan yelled, "Don't touch him!" A heavy thump reverberated through the room. Gasps erupted as people scrambled back.The man who had draped himself over

Rafe stated, "But Beckett Group is in the middle of a storm right now. If I insisted on giving your corporation the project, my superiors would investigate me. I wouldn't be able to escape unscathed!""If you're investigated, I'll make sure you can still live a life of luxury—even if you lose your job." Justin's tone darkened. "But if you turn against me, you won't just suffer a few losses. You'll lose everything."Under the dim moonlight, Justin fiddled with his antique tea cup, his gaze narrowing. "You've worked so hard to get to where you are. Are you prepared to lose it all?"After ending the call, Justin turned to Remy, who stood quietly at the side. "Sheryl is still being detained. She can't be bailed out for another two days. I need someone to watch over the research lab. You'll handle that."Remy was taken aback. "I failed my last mission. Aren't you going to punish me?"Justin's smile was cold and insincere. "It wasn't your fault. You were ambushed. If not for that, I tru

Remy pursed his lips, bending down to pick up the fallen poker card. It was the King of Spades—an entry pass to Kings' Club. "My attacker was…" Remy's pupils constricted as he tightened his grip on the card. "It can only be that dear uncle of mine, always claiming to see me as his own son." Justin's lips curled into a sinister smile. "He's trying to get rid of my right-hand man, taking advantage of my internal feud with Jasper. Weakening me is just his first step toward gaining control over me."He's been a fugitive ever since his successful prison break, never returning to Cyrris after receiving his life sentence. His power base remains in Kontina. "I'm the last surviving Dutton. The Dutton Group, as a cover, has declared bankruptcy and severed all ties with the country. "My dear uncle has taken a huge risk just to target me. He sent his men to attack you in Solana City. What a delightful surprise. It seems he truly doesn't trust me, his only remaining family."Remy lowere

The hospital ward grew heavy with silence. Mandy and Neil stared at Alyssa, stunned beyond words. "M-Ms. Alyssa, you knew that man was Mr. Damien?" Neil asked, disbelief etched into his voice. "Yes." Alyssa's reply was quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. She lowered her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper. "We found out when Cyrus took Damien's cigarette butt for a paternity test."Mandy approached Alyssa, her shoulders trembling slightly. "So, you and Cyrus knew… and you both kept it from me?" Mandy said, her voice catching in her throat, tears welling up. Alyssa felt a sharp pang in her chest. "Mandy, I'm sorry. It was my decision. Cyrus had nothing to do with it."Mandy's tears fell freely now, her grief spilling out in raw sobs. "Do you know what it's been like for me all these years, thinking Damien was gone? Winston, Miley, Lyla, and Colene kept telling me to move on. I tried to accept that he was dead, that we'd never find his body. But I never did."Her vo

The hospital ward was bathed in a dim, yellow glow from the bedside lamp. The silence was thick, yet the room held a strange warmth—an unfamiliar comfort that felt oddly familiar to Remy.Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to sit up. His eyes fell on Mandy, who was asleep beside his bed. Her hair was a mess, and her swollen eyes suggested she'd been crying. She was sound asleep. Remy stiffened. His breath quickened as he stared at her fragile figure. Slowly, he leaned forward, his fingers lifting slightly, tempted to reach out.Just as his hand hovered close, Mandy's lashes fluttered. In her sleep, she murmured, "Damien… Damien… I miss you so much…" Tears slipped down her cheeks, silent and unbidden.A pang tugged at Remy's heart. Without thinking, he brushed away her tears with his calloused fingers. The moment his skin touched hers, a jolt shot through him, sharp and electrifying. Pain throbbed at his temples, but beneath it was a warmth he didn't want to let g

Justin's casual question hit Javier like a thunderclap. Shock rippled through him, freezing his expression. His voice trembled with fear as he barked, "What nonsense is that? Are you accusing me of causing Chester's death? I'm your father—how could you think I'd do such a thing?""It's not an accusation. Just the facts," Justin replied coolly, crossing his legs and savoring his tea with unsettling calm. "And I'm not condemning you. In fact, I understand why you did it. I'm facing the same dilemma now."Javier's breathing grew ragged. He had watched Justin grow from a child into the man before him—now a predator, circling with quiet menace."You were meant to be the heir as the eldest son," Justin continued, his voice smooth as silk. "But Grandpa favored Uncle Chester, handing him major projects, grooming him in plain sight. "Uncle Chester's reputation soon eclipsed yours. He was a natural leader, adept at business, with one fatal flaw—he was kind. Too kind. Unlike you."Justin

Nonetheless, night had fallen by the time Justin arrived at Seaview Manor. On his way there, he worked on two things. First, he secured the top legal team to get Sheryl out on bail as quickly as possible. Second, he tried reaching Remy—unsuccessfully. He had never lost contact with Remy before. Justin's face was as dark as the night itself. The moment he stepped inside Seaview Manor, Rory approached with a solemn expression. He gave a slight bow before speaking. "Mr. Justin, what took you so long? Mr. Javier has been waiting.""I was occupied," Justin replied coolly. Then, as if it were an ordinary evening, he allowed a faint smile. "Where's Jasper? Is he back here yet?" A conflicted look came across Rory's face. "Things between you and Mr. Jasper have soured. I doubt he'll want to see you anytime soon—or show up here.""Is that so? How disappointing."Justin's smile didn't reach his eyes. His gaze lingered on Rory, sharp and bottomless. "So, he'd rather believe what he se

Jonah scoured every corner of the hotel, desperation clawing at his chest, but Julien was nowhere to be found. "Jonah!" Alyssa called out, breathless as she caught up to him. She grabbed his arm. "Calm down! I'll help you search for Jul!""I can't find him. He's gone," Jonah murmured, sinking to the floor. His tears mixed with sweat, creating dark patches on the ground. "Lyse… I fear… if I can't find Julien this time, I'll lose him forever."The agonizing thought of losing the love of his life pierced him. "No, you won't!" Alyssa gripped his arm tighter, her voice trembling with conviction. "If Jul had given up on you, he wouldn't have come here today. The fact that he showed up means he still cares."Jonah's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a pain too deep to hide. He shook his head slowly. "Julien came back for Jasper. He did it because he's loyal… because he's a good friend. Not because of me.""He does care!" Alyssa insisted. "If he didn't, he would've faced you without fli
