Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1602

Xavier gaped at Jasper, who threw his manners out of the window and gobbled up the food like a farm animal. For a moment, Jasper looked just like Landon.

"See, Mr. Beckett, Madam cares about you a lot. She prepared lunch for you because she knew you'd skip meals when you are busy." Xavier couldn't hold back from boasting and groveling. "You're lucky to have her as your wife!"

"Too bad she wasn't the one who delivered lunch to me." Jasper took a sip of water to help with his digestion after wolfing down lunch. He appeared really hungry.

If Alyssa delivered lunch to him, he thought he might have a chance to satisfy his other desires. The mere thought of it put a grin on his face.

"Madam had always delivered food to you in the past, including desserts. You were the one who banned her from coming in," Xavier taunted with a smirk.

Xavier's remark sent a stabbing pain through Jasper's chest—a lump formed in his throat.

At that time, Xavier's phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from Tsulu, he immediately answered it. He listened for a while, and his face fell.

Turning to Jasper, he gasped, "Mr. Beckett, there is some bad news from the hospital in Tsulu! Three of the residents, injured in the Schmidt Group's forced demolition, died in the hospital last night."

"They died?" Frowning, Jasper looked doubtful. "I thought they were out of critical condition. Why did three of them pass away without warning?"

"Since there are three deaths, the incident is now classified as a major public safety incident. Whoever is in charge of the demolition might have to serve jail time in Tsulu," Xavier analyzed.
