Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2377

"In a casual voice, Justin remarked, "Grandpa, you really do spoil Jasper. But, how much longer can you continue this?"

His smile was no longer bright. Instead, it was cold and sly. With an infinitely deep look in his eyes, he continued, "Don't you know that the kinder you are toward him, the more you are dragging him down?"

"Mr. Justin."

Sheryl hurried toward Justin. "The matter is settled."

Justin shot her a look, and she got what he meant. She pushed his wheelchair to the lounge so they could talk privately.

"Mr. Beckett Senior is so frustratingly stubborn!" Sheryl felt indignant on Justin's behalf. "To hell with Jasper. You should be the heir to Beckett Group! Why is he still insisting on protecting that bastard even at a time like this? Has he gone senile?"

"It's just as I had expected," Justin said with a perfunctory smile. "In Grandpa's eyes, Jasper is his biological grandson, whereas he and I have been distant for a long time."

"That's absolutely horrible. He can't even recognize those closest to him!" Sheryl was so infuriated that she stomped her feet. "I have bought off Dr. Bender to be a witness and prove that Jasper consumed illicit drugs.

"Even so, with Mr. Beckett Senior's protection of Jasper, it seems we still won't be able to crush and vanquish him completely."

Justin gazed at Sheryl with dark, gloomy eyes. He lifted his lips into a sarcastic smirk. "Is that how much you hate him?"

"Yes! I wish I could get rid of him with my own hands. I'd cut him to pieces and feed him to the sharks!" she answered through gritted teeth.

Back then, Sheryl's reputation as a Gardner had been destroyed. She had ended up in a situation worse than street beggars. Whenever she was reminded of this, her eyes would turn red with hatred.

With Justin present, she held herself back from cursing Alyssa and the rest of her family.

Justin narrowed his eyes. In a candid and crisp voice, he said, "Such deep-seated hatred suggests that you were once deeply in love with him."

A chill ran down Sheryl's spine, and her chest tightened. She rushed forward and knelt by Justin's feet. She gazed up at him with reverence in her eyes.

"No, Sir! I have never cared about anyone other than you… Not even Jasper! I was still too young, too naïve, and too foolish back then. I was manipulated by Sophia. Otherwise, why would I have anything to do with such lowly people?"

Justin couldn't care less about her confession. He mumbled to himself, "I have never experienced deep love or any deep-seated hatred. So, I'm really envious of your hatred and Jasper's love."
