Chapter 167
Mrs. Rosie quickly corrected herself on the thought of Alice’s request, “I saw it when I helped you change last night! I was shocked to see the huge bruise!”
Thinking back to the heart–stopping moment from last night, he recalled the warmth from Aller’s body as she rested in his arms. He remembered holding onto her tiny waist. A strong and unexplainable desire to protect her arose in him.
Swallowing hard, he felt the urge rising in him, but it didn’t take long before he collected himself,
His expression hardened as he decided that Alice was not worth the sympathy because she had slapped and mocked him, even after he put aside his ego lo apologize.
The family butler announced right then, “Mr. Jasper, Mr. Harper is here to see you. He’s waiting in the living room.”
Jasper pursed his lips. “Tell him to meet me in the study”
Betty was elated at Landon’s unannounced visit. She hurriedly put on a high couture pink dress that she had recently bought. Next, she retouched her makeup and sprayed a little too much perfume on herself before skipping her way to meet her crush.
When she left her room, she found her sister, Lauren, hugging the annoying teddy bear and hopping around in the corridor. It was as though she was playing hopscotch.
Clicking her tongue with disgust, Betty went up to Lauren and shoved her.
“Ouch!” Lauren stumbled forward and toppled onto the ground, looking clumsy and pitiful. Even so, she clutched onto her teddy bear. which she kept safe in her arms.
“Hahaha! Dear sister, I told you not to fool around in the corridor. Did that hurt?”
Belly was in a great mood. She flipped her hair and walked around Lauren. If she were in a bad mood, she would have stepped on Lauren with her heels.
Lauren slowly got up from the ground after Betty left. She had figured Betty out after these years. As long as she played dumb and avoided stealing Betty’s limelight, she would be safe from Betty’s scoldings and beatings.
“Ms. Lauren!” Mrs. Rosie rushed up to help Lauren. She felt sorry for the young girl. “What happened? How did you trip and fall on a flat ground?”
“I–I’m fine.” She pursed her lips. “I accidentally…”
“I saw Betty passing by. Did she push you?” Mrs. Rosie’s eyes were red with anger.
“No! And I’m fine. I’m leaving.” The mention of Betty’s name scared Lauren. She held her teddy bear and fled with pain in her body.
Mrs. Rosle sighed at the sight of the poor girl scurrying away.
After a stroll in the backyard, Landon ran into Betty on his way to the living room.
“Mr. Harper!” Betty put on her widest smile and purred in a saccharine tone. “Why are you here? Are you here to meet Jasper?”
“Of course,” Landon replied mindlessly.
As a good friend of Jasper’s, he was aware of the Beckett family’s dynamics. Knowing that Sophia was a difficult bitch, he extended his dislike of the woman to Belly as well and gave her the cold shoulder.
Only Betty was in the dark. She believed it was a matter of time before she captured Landon’s heart because of her good looks, her wealthy family background, and the fact that she made the first move.
She quietly tugged on her collar to lower it. She then held Landon’s muscular arm. With a pout, she talked cutely to him, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to Jasper.”

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...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
You upload shows 5/21/24 01:20, but I read these chapters 5/20/24 9:26. you can't go back with time only forward...
Come on more chapters or give me information to purchase the book. Last read these chapters yester 5/16 at 21.35. What the hell don't have to spoon feed us....
Time for this story to end it's getting boring and it's too long...
