Can't Win Me Back Chapter 187
Betty asked, "What plan do you have in mind?"Liana glanced around the surroundings, making sure there was no one else nor any security cameras before pulling out a vial from her purse."What's that?" Betty asked.Liana grinned with evil glee. "Something that, once consumed, will unleash irresistible impulses in every individual. It's particularly effective for cheap whores like Alice White.""What?" Betty shrieked but was quickly silenced with a hand on her mouth."Shh! Be quiet!" "Y-You wanna drug Alice? During tonight's celebration?"Liana whispered deviously, "If we can get Alice to sleep with Jonah tonight right when the celebration is going on, imagine the impact on her!"Then, Alice's carefully built reputation would crumble apart in front of the masses, angering and disgusting both Jasper and her grandfather. Even the Taylor family wouldn't want anything to do with her anymore."Plus, you hate how close she is with Mr. Harper, don't you? Do you think he would still wa

Jonah recovered from his shock and got up from his seat. "Dad, what are you doing here?"He shot a worried look at the stage, where Alyssa was."What? Why can't I be here? Hey, you never even let me know you were coming. We would've made such the entrance earlier," Winston scowled, then shot Newton a hearty smile. "Long time no see, old man. Your youth has not left you, I see!""My goodness, what an honor to have you here!" Newton hurriedly stood up to shake hands with Winston.Javier and the rest of Newton's family hurriedly stood up to greet Winston.Jasper, on the other hand, had narrowed his eyes. He didn't recall seeing Winston and Jonah Taylor's names on the guest list earlier tonight. It didn't seem like Newton had known they were coming over either.That could only mean Javier had personally invited the man.But why?"I apologize for being late. We just got off the plane. Come, let me drink to your health!" Winston raised a glass of wine.Jasper couldn't help but be

Jasper peered at the stage, but Alyssa had long left. He could only frown, brows knit together in focus.…The wait staff were busying about in the kitchen when a simply-clad maid slipped into the room. Betty had gotten through to her, so she was prepared to do her dirty work for her.She kept away from the cameras and took out the vials Betty had given her before adding them to two champagne glasses. She then topped it off with champagne."One for Mr. Jonah Taylor and the other for Mr. Landon Harper. Do you understand? You have to make sure he drinks it."That was the instruction Betty had given her.This would be the maid's golden ticket to being rich. She was determined not to mess up.Right after she finished topping the drinks, the urge to go to the restroom hit her like a pillow to the face. She quickly ran off, leaving the glasses unattended.Just then, a woman in a white cotton dress snuck into the kitchen. She was the Beckett family's fourth child, Lauren Beckett.Her

Liana felt indignant when she heard Jasper say the word "forced."That was the first time Liana took the initiative to kiss him first. How could he see it as being forced?"But Jasper, I'm your fiancée! How could you? How could you say that of me?" Liana's eyes reddened with tears."You knew from the start that I never liked women who made the first move, nor can I tolerate intimate acts." Jasper's tone was icy.Liana muttered, "I know … I've always known …" Liana knew that due to his upbringing and childhood trauma, he always had a hard time being intimate with the opposite sex. Being able to communicate his emotions was already a big improvement for him.He was such a fine man. If it hadn't been Alyssa who took him away from her, it would have been some other woman.Jasper's hand curled into a fist, recalling Alice's cold gaze from afar. "You say you've always known, but you seem to have wilfully forgotten about it since we started dating again." What was this emotion he wa

Alyssa stood in the empty guest room, and no sound was heard. She fumbled for the light switch, calling, "Jonah! Jonah, are you there?"A low voice came from the bedroom, too low for her to hear.She quickly went into the bedroom, calling, "Jonah? Are you okay?!""Al-Alyssa, stay away!" Jonah yelled, his breath coming in harsh pants."What's wrong, Jonah? You're scaring me!" Alyssa went and opened the bedroom door.It was dark inside, but she could still see Jonah leaning against the foot of the bed. He looked like he had just taken a dive in the lake. He was soaked with moisture.He had taken off his suit, leaving only his white dress shirt sticking against his skin, the buttons open to reveal his flushed red skin."Jonah—""I've been … I've been drugged." Jonah closed his eyes, trying to stay conscious. "I tried a cold bath, but it … it didn't work. The drug's too strong!""How could this happen?" Alyssa cried, angry and panicked at the same time.She was masterfully skille

Newton's suggestion had Javier's and Sophia's faces falling flat on the table. Betty, on the other hand, nearly spat out her drink."Don't joke about these things, Grandpa!" Jasper said sternly.Winston was just as stunned as everyone else."You have three daughters, if I remember correctly?" Newton asked, to which Winston nodded."Yes, three. I have a total of nine children. They're enough for me for a lifetime now.""Ah, and are those three married yet?" Winston replied awkwardly, "My sixth child, Miley, has already married. She's currently overseas. My youngest, Tatiana, is still in school. I don't want her to marry just yet. Let her enjoy her youth and whatnot.""What about your third girl, the one you dote on? What was her name again? Al-something?"Winston's gaze turned gentle at the thought of his favorite daughter. "That's my eighth child, Alyssa."Jasper felt something like thunder hit him. His grip on his wineglass nearly slipped."Right! Alyssa! I remember seeing

Newton grew worried upon hearing Liana's words. "Why? What has happened to Alice?"Even Jasper's heart skipped anxiously.Sophia urged, "Just tell us, Lia. No one else is listening besides us.""Um … When I was taking a stroll earlier, I saw Alice and Mr. Taylor enter the same room. It looked like Mr. Taylor had too much to drink. Maybe Alice had gone to look after him?" Liana said innocently. She added, "I was worried at first, but since the two are officially dating, it's not an issue for them to stay alone together, right?"Jasper's hands balled into fists while Winston stood up from his seat. "Who is this woman you speak of?""Uh …" Liana said nervously, glancing at Jasper for salvation. Jasper felt all the blood rush to his head. Under everyone's shocked gazes, he turned and stormed off the venue. Meanwhile, Liana smiled to herself, gleeful that her plan was working. Alice's reputation would be kicked to the dust for good this time, and Jasper would finally see what a

But Jasper wasn't giving up that easily. He grabbed hold of her arm, stopping her from taking another step. His eyes were nearly bloodshot by now. "Did he touch you, Alice? Answer me!""Someone drugged Jonah!" Alyssa growled out, glaring at him."What?" Jasper gaped in shock."I managed to suppress the effects, but I can't do much else to deal with this fucked up cocktail of drugs, so I'm getting him to the hospital right now!" Alyssa flung Jasper's hand away, yelling, "I don't have time to deal with this nonsense right now, Jasper Beckett, but mark my words. If something happens to Jonah because of this, I'll make sure you and your family pay!"Her words were like blades that lodged themselves in Jasper's heart. It felt like someone had carved a hole into his very being. His cheeks were warm and flushed as if she had just slapped him in the face.Jasper never expected Alyssa to be so hostile toward him all for another man, nor had he ever seen such a ferocious, determined gaze.
