Jasper stood ten feet away, meeting Javier's gaze with an indifferent look. The row of black seats between them seemed like spiked bushes, just like their relationship.
The air in the banquet hall immediately froze. Rory and the hotel manager were gripped by shock and fear.
"Jasper… Why are you here? What's going on?" Javier formed a guess in mind, but he furiously demanded an answer from Jasper.
"Isn't it obvious, Mr. Javier?" Dressed in a grey four-piece suit, Jasper stood tall in confrontation with Javier. His frostiness and imposing air overwhelmed Javier, who was used to being treated like a king. Javier held his breath.
Javier foresaw himself being outdone by Jasper very soon. Jasper's authoritative behavior was the equal of Javier's younger self, if not better. At that moment, Javier felt fortunate that there was no one else there to witness his humiliation.
"I have sent the reporters away. Seems like they'd rather get on your wrong side than make themselves my enemy," Jasper explained with a smirk.
"Why? Why did you do so?" Anger rose in Javier, and his ears rang. "Did that Taylor bitch ask you to do this? Are you seriously destroying your family's reputation for her? She's fooling you!"
Jasper's expression hardened. A storm brewed in his eyes. "Everything I do is of my free will. Lyse has nothing to do with you. I won't let you insult my future wife."
Javier's eyes wavered in surprise. Hearing that, Rory and the hotel manager fell silent.
Jasper added, "Even if she was fooling me, there's nothing wrong with wanting to keep my lover happy."

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🙄...
