Author: Ginger Sue
"I'm perfectly fine, Lyla," Alyssa said as she hugged her third stepmother affectionately.

"Well, alright then. I'll prepare some snacks for you two." Lyla then left the study, but not before making a bullhorn gesture with her hands to show Alyssa that Winston was currently furious.

Alyssa responded with a reassuring "okay" sign and a playful wink.

Neil also left the study, giving them some privacy.

"I heard everything you said to Lyla earlier, Dad."

Alyssa sat down beside her father, han

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2579

    The moment Newton finished speaking, a heavy silence descended upon the room, pressing down on everyone's hearts. Alyssa was deeply shaken. A surge of emotions rose within her, leaving her reeling for a long moment. Though she had never met Chester, Newton's words painted a vivid picture of him—kind, generous, gentle, and deeply empathetic. In some ways, it almost felt as though Jasper resembled Chester more than Javier ever had. It was a cruel twist of fate that such a good man had died so young, never given the chance to live a full life. Then, a sudden thought struck her. Because of the twisted bond between Chester and Javier, it felt as though fate had played a cruel joke on them all. Jasper, who had remained silent all this while, finally spoke. "Dad, I don't understand you."He lifted his gaze to Javier, his eyes reddened with emotion. His voice trembled as he continued, "You and Uncle Chester grew up together. You lived under the same roof, attended the same school, a

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2578

    Alyssa and Jasper exchanged a knowing glance. Though they could feel the sting of the truth, their compassion stopped them from pursuing that line of thought. To them, Javier could hardly be considered a good husband. His performance at work was mediocre, and he lacked exceptional talent. Yet, in the end, he had still raised Jasper and pulled him out of a life steeped in darkness and uncertainty. If not for Javier, Jasper might have perished in the slums as a child. In that case, he would never have met Alyssa—never known her, never married her, never shared such a deep and passionate bond with her. Moreover, Javier had always been a devoted son to Newton. That alone proved he was not entirely devoid of conscience. So how could he have fallen so far as to harm his own brother? That was nothing short of monstrous. Javier's face was as pale as a ghost, sweat pouring down his temples. The suit he had worn for over 24 hours was soaked through with cold perspiration. Frantic, Rory

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2577

    Alyssa was reminded of the past the moment she heard Javier had arrived. Knowing he had never been particularly fond of her, she rose to her feet. "Grandpa Newton, I'll step out for a while so you and your family can have some space."Jasper's gaze darkened, his heart skipping a beat. He was about to ask her to stay, but Newton beat him to it. Grabbing Alyssa's slightly cold hands, Newton pulled her back down beside him. "What nonsense are you spouting, Alyssa? You're not an outsider. If anything, you're closer to me than my own son. You're my most beloved granddaughter-in-law!"Tears welled in Alyssa's eyes. "Grandpa Newton…" Newton snorted. "Just be yourself, even in front of Jasper's father. Do as you please. You and I are family. As for him and me…. Hmph, that's another matter entirely."At that, Jasper's lips curved faintly. Moments later, Ben led Javier in, with Rory trailing behind. Javier was usually impeccably dressed, carrying himself with quiet authority. But today

    Upon hearing that, Jasper and Alyssa exchanged a knowing glance, a silent understanding passing between them. Newton caught the look they shared, and his heart swelled with a sweetness richer than honey. He nodded firmly. "I'm prepared. Truth be told… I've been waiting a long time for this day." "Grandpa, public outrage is growing. The authorities will likely bring Justin in for questioning within the next two days." Jasper took Newton's hand in his too, his expression turning resolute. "However, I can't hand over the evidence you gave me just yet. If I do, it may become harder to secure a conviction against Justin in the future. I plan to wait and see how things unfold before making a decision.""I've always trusted your judgment," Newton replied. "But remember to discuss everything with your wife before acting. Don't go at it alone. Alyssa is sharp and perceptive. She'll help you make better decisions and reduce the risks."Newton then took both their hands and placed Jasper'

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2575

    If the authorities ever obtained that recording, Javier would be dragged into a full-blown scandal even if no physical evidence remained. His reputation would be destroyed, Beckett Group would descend into chaos, and even Newton would be greatly affected. Beckett Group must never fall into Justin's hands. If he gained complete control, there was no telling how far into darkness he would steer it. "H-How did you get that recording?" Javier's voice trembled, his entire body shaking. Back then, Justin had been what—three? Four? How could he possibly have…"This was the only gift my dearest mother ever left me," Justin replied calmly. "Whether in life or death. She kept the voice recorder locked in a safe, deep within her wardrobe. The passcode is a combination of your birthdate and mine."He gave a soft click of his tongue, shaking his head. There was no grief in his eyes, only cold disdain for Caroline. She had been foolish enough to let a grand, blind love be her undoing. "My

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2574

    Javier stood rooted to the spot, his face drained of all color. It was as though lightning had struck him; as if his soul was wrenched from his body, his blood turning to ice. All strength to resist Justin vanished in an instant. Since childhood, Newton had always favored his second son, Chester, over Javier. Chester was dependable, kind-hearted, generous, and highly capable. Javier, as the eldest, was no less competent. Yet as the years passed and both brothers grew into adulthood, their differences became increasingly apparent—especially after they began taking over the family business. Newton never held back in praising Chester. In fact, he even started considering entrusting key projects at Beckett Group to him. Though Javier never voiced his discontent, resentment quietly festered beneath the surface. As the eldest son, he had always believed that inheriting the Beckett family legacy—and Beckett Group—was his rightful future. But Chester's very existence became a constan

    At that moment, a sharp, metallic taste of blood surged up Jasper's throat, choking him so violently that he struggled to breathe.Winston and Silas stared at them, mouths agape. Chills went down their spines. Silas could feel Winston's arm stiffening up and his palms turning cold. Alyssa, the darlin

    "Justin's uncle? Lyse, what does this person have to do with you?" Axel couldn't help but inquire out of curiosity. "I keep having the feeling that Zachary and Justin are closely related. Moreover, he might be hiding and working with Justin to devise some unfathomable scheme."I'm guessing that we'd

    Could that be the case? Could Justin really have harbored such sinister plans at such a young age?Alyssa wasn't keen to believe in a conspiracy, but she had begun to suspect something two years ago. How could a 15-year-old manage to rescue Jasper from the kidnappers' hideout? Even an adult would hav

    "Oh? Hey, Jasper." A look of surprise flashed across Justin's face. He was still holding up the bowl in his hand. Jasper snapped back to his senses. In a low voice, he responded, "Hey, Justin." "Since Jasper's here, it won't be appropriate for me to stay." Justin placed the bowl down gently and gave
