Chapter 110
Jasper lifted a brow as his expression darkened. Before this, he might have been a little moody, but he was truly angered at that moment.
Jasper was called to Javier’s study after he changed into a fresh outfit.
“Daddy! You have to help me out! Poor me…” Betty hugged her dad and cried her heart out. Her tear -stained face was full of injuries from her catfight with her two friends in the afternoon. Even her lips were chapped. She looked pitiable.
Seated on the couch, Javier hurriedly consoled his daughter. She looked like a mess, unlike her usual well–presented self. “Jasper’s home. I’ll ask him about it.”
“The scandal is getting out of hand. I got a few calls asking about Betty. I honestly didn’t know what to say.” Sophia teared up upon mentioning her beloved daughter. “People are cursing Betty out online. How can she ever show up in public? How will the other elites in Solana City think of us?”
“Sophie, don’t worry. I will not let them bully my daughter.” Frowning, Javier had a burning gaze in his eyes.
The door opened. Jasper wandered into the study with a flat expression.
“Jasper, why didn’t you take care of the video scandal? Aren’t you too laid–back as the president? Javier immediately stopped his son and berated him.
“The Beckett Group has its PR and Legal Departments led by their respective directors.” Jasper was unruffled. He sounded calm. “I am a president, not a nanny. I will take over certain issues but not meddle in things that aren’t under my purview.”
“And do
you think this scandal isn’t under your purview? Betty is your sister! Do you plan to watch as people harass her and slander her?” Sophia pressed against her chest with tears, as though she’d faint at any moment.
“Sophie, you’re weak. You shouldn’t get emotional,” Javier quickly held her shoulders with a tender look. Two decades had passed, but Jasper still felt uneasy and suffocated whenever he saw the display of affection between Javier and Sophia.
Javier had not once mentioned Jasper’s mother in the last two decades. He did not even pay a visit to her grave. The poor woman, who loved him with every fiber of her being, was treated as though she had never existed in Javier’s life. The lack of acknowledgment hurt more than any feeling of resentment and hatred

“I’m fine, Javier.” Sophia coughed softly in Javier’s arms. “I lost control of my temper and acted out I shouldn’t have troubled Jasper with the issue After all, he must be very occupied as the
group president.”
She added, “I’m just worried that he might hold a grudge against me, for I am not his biological
mother. If that’s why he is unwilling to help us out, you shouldn’t blame him. I totally
understand.”
Jasper was sick of Sophia’s drama over the past twenty years. He wondered why Javier hadn’t
gotten tired of her.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
