Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2298

"Please thank Justin on my behalf." Jasper looked at Sheryl with an emotionless gaze. "I will take the medications. I've got work to do, so you may go ahead and take your leave, Dr. Gillis."

"I shall not take up any more of your time, Mr. Jasper. Contact me promptly if you feel unwell in any way."

Upon saying that, Sheryl turned and walked to the door.

"Xavier, I will attend the charity event on the weekend," Jasper informed in a deep voice.

Xavier was overjoyed. "Got it, Mr. Beckett. I will make the necessary arrangements shortly!"

Sheryl's eyes briefly lit up before they narrowed. Then, she strutted away.

The moment the door was closed, Jasper picked up the pills. With a frosty look on his face, he tossed them into the trash can.

"Mr. Beckett, have you come to your senses?" Xavier was so close to bursting into happy tears. He had thought that Jasper had already been blinded by that cunning fox!

"It's true that Justin saved me. But that doesn't mean I'd have to accept everything he gives me."

Jasper closed the document on his desk. As he breathed slowly, he recalled the conversation he and Justin had on the rooftop the other day.

He could feel a dull pain in his temples as he tightened his grip around the pen in his hand.

…

In the blink of an eye, the weekend was here.

This year's Solana City charity event was different from past events. Several affluent families from the city, as well as government and non-government organizations, had come together to form a charity foundation.

Such events allowed people to showcase their generosity and build a positive public image.

Alyssa, now the president of KS Group, had an obligation to attend, especially since she was already at the forefront of many philanthropic efforts.

Her Rolls-Royce glided to a halt outside Solana City's largest orphanage, one of the foundation's key initiatives. Unlike the glamorous charity dinners, the daytime event at the orphanage involved more hands-on effort, so most of the affluent chose not to participate.

As Alyssa and Sean stepped out of the car, Andie Campbell, the orphanage director, greeted them.
