Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1141

"You have contributed the most. I was just an assistant," said Jasper to Alyssa. The look in his eyes was gentle, and his heart was racing.

He wasn't sure how else he could show his gratitude. Tonight, he would have to show his love to her with all his might. No, he had to love her till death and cherish her forever.

"However, earlier, I heard the cops saying that they were arresting her due to drug violations. Why wasn't it …" Alyssa couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

With a deep gaze, Jasper said, "I will tell you my plan in detail when we get home tonight."

Other than Jasper and Alyssa, everyone else was caught off guard by Sophia's arrest.

Even Jonah was floored. He glanced over at Alyssa with astonishment. She returned his look with a cheeky wink.

Winston wrapped his arms tight around Lyla, who was shivering in her small frame. He asked softly, "Did that shake you up?"

Although it was satisfying to watch Sophia receive the consequences of her bad karma, he was worried that Lyla would be reminded of her traumatic experience.

"I'm not as weak as you think I am, Winston. Plus, I've waited too long for this day."

Lyla pulled back from Winston's arms and walked straight to the front of Alyssa. Her eyes were bright, and her voice was filled with gratitude.

"Thank you, Lyse."

Alyssa blinked and pretended not to understand. "What do you mean, Lyla? I didn't do anything."

"I know … I understand …"

With tears in her eyes, Lyla held Alyssa's hand tightly in hers. "Lyse, I owe it to you forever. This favor … There's no way for me to return it. But I will repay what I can for as long as I live."

"That was her bad karma. Sophia ended up like this today because the heavens were punishing her. Don't overthink it, Lyla. When you return, get a good night's rest, and bring Taty for a holiday overseas. I will send someone to keep you posted on the situation here.

"I'm guessing that there will be yet another good show soon. Sophia's bad luck is far from over."

It all became clear to Carl in a blink. Through gritted teeth, he nodded and replied, "I get what you mean now, Mr. Schmidt."

…

The big screen in the middle of the racecourse turned off. Yet, the crowd's excited chatter hadn't stopped.

Cornelius took advantage of the chaotic situation and shot Preston a look.

While no one was paying attention, Preston walked to the front of Ezzo and Zeke.

With a smile on his face, he said, "You have both come here from a long way away. As the host, we want to give you a good welcome. Additionally, I guarantee that you will both return with full satisfaction. It will be a worthwhile trip.

"Moreover, now that such a darned incident happened, I suppose Mr. Victor and Mr. Javier have their hands full. I'm afraid that they won't be able to attend to you both. How about you come with us and get some rest?"
