It was a quiet night, with pin-drop silence filling the hospital's VIP ward.
In the office of Jasper's primary physician, Sheryl placed a bank card on the coffee table and sipped her tea relaxedly.
"Ms. Gillis, what is the meaning of this?" Sebastian Bender stared at the black-colored bank card in shock.
Nonchalantly, Sheryl smiled and asked, "Mr. Jasper's blood test results are out. I'm sure you have identified some issues with them, haven't you, Dr. Bender?"
Sebastian hesitated. "Indeed, there was an unusual substance detected in Mr. Jasper's blood sample…"
"Methamphetamine, for instance?"
Sebastian cried out in shock, "How did you know that?"
"To be frank, you've had your suspicions ever since you started treating Mr. Jasper, haven't you? His symptoms are more like those of drug addiction rather than a simple headache. Am I right?" Sheryl pressed on, a sinister gleam in her eyes.
Sebastian's hands trembled as he held his teacup. He argued, "Patients under extreme pain could also show symptoms such as acute headaches. It might not necessarily indicate a drug addiction."
The president of Beckett Group was being suspected of a drug addiction?
If word of this got out, not only would Beckett Group and Solana City be completely shaken, but Sebastian himself might not even survive.
He had to be careful with his words!
With a loud thunk, Sheryl placed her teacup down and lifted her lips into a cold smile.
"What if these were indeed symptoms of drug addiction?"
Sebastian broke out in cold sweat. With a quiver in his voice, he probed, "Ms. Gillis, what are you actually trying to say?"
"I want you, as Mr. Jasper's primary physician, to issue a conclusive test report proving that his condition results from drug abuse. Make sure to indicate each of the relevant components clearly.
"Mr. Justin has now returned. He's the legitimate eldest son of the Becketts. His health is improving daily, and his capabilities match Jasper's. If Jasper steps down, Mr. Justin can surely take over Beckett Group completely and become the sole heir.
"When that time comes, you will have made a major contribution, Dr. Bender. Mr. Justin will see that you are well taken care of in the future."
Sebastian was on edge and highly strung. But he knew he had no other choice. It was simply his misfortune to be caught in the battle between the Beckett brothers. So, he could only accept the card with resignation.
…
Jasper remained unconscious. Newton insisted on staying at the hospital to keep watch over him. Despite his advanced age, he forced himself to remain vigilant. No matter who tried to persuade him otherwise, he remained steadfast. He made such a fuss that Javier had no choice but to also stay back at the hospital.
Nevertheless, Justin could tell that Newton was insisting on keeping watch, despite his failing health, because he didn't want Justin to have a chance to harm Jasper.
As Justin sat outside the hospital ward, he gazed at the unconscious Jasper through the glass window on the door.
He curled his lips upward in a subtle smile.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
seems to have come to a halt useless...
Where are the chapters please ? Over a week no updates....
Just tell me where to purchase the book I definitely will buy it...
Need more chapters please...
It’s dwindled down to 1 page a day??...
7 chapters a day would be great...
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?...
