"Be careful, Zoe."
Not only was the man speaking gently to Zoe, but he was also attentively bending down to help her adjust her hem. He was concerned that her high heels might cause her to trip.
"Thank you, Freddy." Zoe blinked flirtatiously at the man as she spoke softly.
The sudden appearance of this hateful woman disrupted the rare harmonious moment.
Landon knew that Zoe would definitely show up on such an occasion. Having just experienced exile and escaped confinement, she was eager to regain attention from high society and reclaim her dignity.
He thought that after those sordid events, the respectable people of Solana City would ignore her.
Yet here was a man eagerly catering to her and being so attentive. That man appeared to be a shameless flirt and a blind fool—they seemed like a perfect match.
Jasper frowned in confusion, but Alyssa suddenly spoke up coldly. "I recognize him. Freddy Hodgson, Orlander Hodgson's only son."
"You actually recognize him? Even I find him unfamiliar." Jasper held Alyssa's hand tightly, looking at her with admiration and adoration.
"It's normal for you not to recognize him. He's not part of the governmental circles. Since furthering his studies at Yoarkley, he's been notably absent from the social scene in Solana City. I suspect he only made his return recently."
Alyssa looked at Zoe and Freddy with deep eyes. "Back then, upon assuming responsibility for KS World Hotel from Winston, I held a steadfast belief in my future leadership of the entire KS Group. So, I quietly probed into the goings-on within Solana City's governmental and corporate spheres."
As she talked, she suddenly chuckled. "At that time, I was determined to crush the entire Beckett Group and compete with you, so I diligently gathered information. I wanted to make a big impact in Solana City. But, I never expected..."
"Never expected yourself to become the wife of Beckett Group's president?" Jasper chuckled softly. As he lowered his head, his warm breath flowed over her cheek.
"It's all your fault. My grand ambitions have all been ruined because of you." Alyssa pouted adorably.
"Lyse, everything I have is yours."
As he admired her adorable face, his hand moved toward her waist and gently caressed it. "It's not ruined. You've already defeated me, winning without a fight."
Alyssa pursed her lips and shook her head calmly. "Jasper, what's yours is yours. You've earned it all through hard work. I just need you to be mine.
"What truly brings me joy is not having you constantly striving to please or be subservient to me. It's standing side by side with you at the peak."
Jasper was so moved by her words that tears welled up in his eyes.
On the other hand, Zoe was furious when she saw Landon bringing Lauren along.
"Shall we go inside, Zoe?" Freddy's eyes were full of affection.
"Just a moment. I'll take you to meet an acquaintance."
Freddy looked puzzled. "Who?"
Zoe kept him guessing while pulling him toward Landon.

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🙄...
