Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1979

Justin's honesty took Alyssa by surprise.

Initially, what she thought was that if Justin denied the fact that the drug was from RC, it would mean that he had something to hide about all this.

The likelihood of him being suspicious or there being something wrong with the drug that RC developed would be high. Even if the problem weren't with the drug that Lauren took, it would be enough to show that there was something fishy going on.

However, she really had no idea what to say right now.

"To be exact, I have dealings with RC and various pharmaceutical research companies in Mosgravia."

Justin coughed softly. He let out a helpless smile. "All these years, my broken body has been a testing ground. I have taken countless types of medications. I would have given them a shot as long as they could improve my health.

"It's also exactly because of this that I came to know RC better. I also got a better understanding of the drugs that they are developing."

"There have been many advances in the medical field to date. I'm sure you will improve if you hang in there, Justin." Alyssa was kind-hearted. She was merely giving the most basic consolation to someone who was being tormented by pain all year round.

At this moment, neither of them had noticed that Jasper was standing in the shadows outside the balcony. His eyes were dark as he observed them.

"Ms. Alyssa, do you truly hope for my recovery?"

Justin smiled. "After all, I am the eldest son in the Beckett family. If I become well again, I would very likely go against Jasper and fight to be the heir apparent. Do you really wish to see that happen?"

Alyssa smiled slightly. Her eyes were bright. "If Jasper's position as heir apparent was attained at the cost of your health, truth be told, I would rather have him give up the position as president.

"First and foremost, I love Jasper as the person that he is. I don't care about his past or his background. I will not have any complaints, even if he were to cut ties with the Beckett Group one day. Neither will my love for him diminish just because of that."

Justin frowned.

Jasper, who was still in the dark, widened his eyes.
