Can't Win Me Back Chapter 309
After a tumultuous period, the chaos finally died down.Alyssa masterfully set in motion a butterfly effect that led to the downfall of the Gardner Group, using her pawn, Curtis Halloway. While the Beckett Group was caught up in the turmoil, it did, at the very least, prevent Jasper from marrying Liana. As a scandal victim, Jasper didn't suffer significant damage apart from the temporary embarrassment due to being the subject of public gossip.One day, while Alyssa was playing two rounds of games in her office, Sean peeled some grapes for her. He took the opportunity to report on some developments."Mr. Cyrus provided an update on Rosaline Kirkman's case. It will soon be brought to the district court. Currently, no reputable attorney is willing to defend her because the evidence is rock solid. Nobody likes to fight a losing battle, so I believe she's looking at a minimum sentence of 20 years."He leaned in attentively and fed her a grape. She ate it with a satisfied squint and

Soon, "Rose" sent Alyssa a message.Rose: "Hey, want a round?"Lucifer: "I'm signing off. Maybe next time."Rose: "Can we meet for coffee at KS World Hotel's café?"…Alyssa hastily showed up at the hotel café on the third floor a few minutes later. The café was rather empty at that time of the day. She spotted Jameson sitting alone near the glazed double doors. The colors of the sunset danced on his hunky figure in what was an eye-catching scene."Jameson." Alyssa walked up to him, astonished. "Since when were you here? Why didn't you hit me up?""I didn't want to distract you. I heard you were busy, so I decided to wait here in the café." He smiled and showed his phone. "But I noticed you were online in the game, so I thought it would be okay to invite you out.""What would you like to drink? It's on me." Alyssa couldn't help but admire Jameson's thoughtful plan. Somehow, she felt as though she had let him down, even though it was him who had made an unexpected visit.

After returning from a management meeting, Jasper rested on the leather chair in the Beckett Group president's office, visibly exhausted.News of his breakup with Liana must have spread within the company. Nonetheless, not one employee in the building dared to gossip about him lest they got into trouble.As the vice chair of the board of directors, Jasper was de facto yielding the most power in the company. Somehow, that did not bring him any happiness at all."I'm surprised that Sophia was able to pay off the Gardners' debts. It looks like she has siphoned quite a lot of money. This is the perfect time to pay it all back." Xavier gloated at Sophia's misfortune."Henry was her tool to collect wealth, but he's in jail now. The fact that she could afford to pay the tens of millions in debt goes to show that she has other channels of getting the money." Jasper's half-opened eyes gleamed dangerously."Could she have made money … from that luxury store, EV Concepts?" Xavier widened his

Zoe Harper was Landon's younger sibling, and her growth into adulthood was a story that unfolded before Jasper's very eyes.As the eldest brother, Landon doted on Zoe very much, just like how Jonah and the Taylor siblings treated Alyssa.After some thought, Jasper relented. "Fine, pick me up."…Night had fallen over the land. Landon had secured a box with the best view on the second floor of the Solana City National Theater, all set to enjoy Zoe's performance.He had also arranged for a camera to be set up in the box. He was excitedly adjusting the camera settings, planning to record Zoe's entire performance.Jasper sat beside him, crossing his slender legs. He shot a disdainful look at Landon, who was behaving somewhat like a paparazzi."The hosting organization will record the performance and present the CD to the performing guest. Quit embarrassing yourself with your amateur skills.""What do you know, you nitwit? My recording is full of love. It's different from the offici

When the piano concert officially began, Christina Hammond gracefully made her way to the stage, dressed in a velvety navy gown. She took her seat at the piano and proceeded to perform her self-composed song, the one that had catapulted her to fame—"Whispers of the Four Seasons."The audience sat in silence, captivated by the melody.However, Alyssa couldn't tear her gaze away from Christina's exquisite navy dress. It was a one-of-a-kind haute couture piece designed by the renowned fashion designer Sharon, who happened to be Alyssa herself. Sharon's creations were reserved for accomplished and talented celebrities like Christina.Jasper, too, found himself distracted from the performance. His fists clenched, and he trembled visibly. Throughout the performance, he directed an intense and fiery glare at Alyssa.Occasionally, Jameson and Alyssa leaned in to whisper to each other. She nodded and smiled, clearly engrossed in their conversation.Jasper's lips remained tightly purs

The tension in the air was almost palpable. Caught off guard, Alyssa inadvertently locked eyes with Jasper. She furrowed his brow in annoyance.Jameson, too, found himself unexpectedly caught up in the situation. He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses with an unemotional façade that quickly transformed into a sheepish expression. "I'm sorry, Ms. Taylor. I had no idea he'd be here when I invited you along. I'll forgo Madam Hammond's autograph. Let's go."Alyssa, however, remained composed. She flashed a cool smile and stood her ground. "No need to worry. I'm perfectly fine. There's no reason to avoid my ex-husband. I want you to get that autograph to fulfill your mother's wish."Jameson widened his eyes at her, seemingly touched by her words. In contrast, her ex-husband's face fell.Jasper could hear her reply loud and clear as they stood not far away from each other.Throughout the concert, he had been seething with anger, and he finally lost it when Alyssa mentioned Jameson's mo

Alyssa raised her chin and confidently strode toward Jasper. He could feel his heart racing as he watched her approach, his whole body tensing up with anticipation. He desperately wanted to approach her.Frowning deeply, Zoe tightened her grip on Jasper possessively. She could tell that Jasper knew the beautiful Alyssa. More than that, he seemed to care about Alyssa a lot!Just as Jasper believed Alyssa was headed toward him, she breezed past him."Christina!" Alyssa left behind an astonished Jasper and called out to someone with a wide smile."Oh! My sweetheart!" Christina strolled over from the far end of the corridor, waving excitedly at Alyssa as though they were long-lost friends. They evidently shared a close bond.The three men stared agape. Even Zoe was dumbfounded at the scene. Christina had always been distant and aloof. Throughout their three-year mentorship, she seldom praised Zoe and often appeared annoyed.What did Alyssa do to elicit a rare smile from Christina?"

As they exited the theater, Zoe clung to Jasper, just like how she did when they were younger. She blabbered about her experiences abroad and professed her longing for him.The only difference was that she'd hold hands with both Landon and Jasper when she was a kid. Now, she treated Landon like a servant, completely disregarding him. She only had eyes for Jasper.Landon trailed behind them with a gloomy expression. Even his sister had ditched him after Alyssa rejected him. He started having doubts about his attractiveness.Upon reaching the parking garage, Jasper abruptly came to a stop. He took a deep breath and firmly withdrew his hand from Zoe's grip."Jasper, what's wrong?" She blinked innocently, her hand left suspended in mid-air."Zoe." He turned to her, looking cold and distant, a stark contrast to how he acted around her when they were kids. She froze up in panic. "You're not a child anymore. Some of your behavior is inappropriate.""What's inappropriate about it? Yo

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

"Don't say that. You've done really well so far!" Xavier said gently, his voice a steady anchor as he tried to comfort Julien.He continued, "Many people spend their whole lives unable to quit even common drugs. The substance Mr. Beckett took is far more potent. The fact that he's found any relief at all is remarkable."Jasper's senses gradually returned, but he was left drained, and his eyes struggled to focus. "Julien…" "I'm right here," Julien murmured, leaning in to gently wipe the tears and cold sweat from Jasper's face with a tissue. Struggling for breath, Jasper rasped, "Keep my condition… a secret… especially from her." Julien didn't need to ask who he meant. It had to be Alyssa. It wasn't pride that fueled Jasper's plea. It was something deeper—a desperate wish to shield Alyssa from the sight of his brokenness, to spare her the disappointment of seeing him like this.Xavier helped Jasper to stand before addressing Julien. "Dr. Lovelace, I hope you understand—the f
