Chapter 339
“It’s really a fine plan, Mr. Jasper!” Xavier said, then asked timidly, “It’s just, with Madam’s personality,
there’s a risk she just might win over Ada Kingsley. Why don’t we …”
“Get to the point.”
“Why don’t we let Madam have this small win instead? It doesn’t determine the final victor anyway. We’ll
be the gentlemen in this scenario and let the lady have it. Plus, you two were married before-”
No!” Jasper said sharply. “If we can’t move Alexa, then we have no choice but to start from Ada Kingsley.
Alyssa must be in the same boat as us if she’s doing the same thing.
“Every whiff of progress is enough to set us back to square one. We cannot let her have this win. We need
Ada to attend our welcoming party no matter the cost!”
Jasper then entered his car while Xavier was left standing there alone. The latter’s face slowly crumbled
into despair.
Jasper pondered how his boss could ever win back Alyssa with the current approach.
Jasper sighed heavily in his seat. He was actually considering Xavier’s suggestion to let Alyssa win this
round.
But he had never won anything involving Alyssa ever since their divorce. She seemed to be leagues above
him, shattering his entire plans in seconds, as if by divine intervention.
He realized how different Alyssa was now compared to that gentle, demure woman who used to be his
wife. Her intelligence, beauty, and grace seemed to be setting them apart for good.
That was why Jasper needed to win. It was one of the only ways he knew to reduce the wide gap between
them.
Landon had to leave for ACE for a client meeting later that night, leaving only his mother and sister at
home.
Zoe went to her mother’s room, nuzzling into her mother’s arms before sleep.
Penelope recalled what had transpired during dinner and told her daughter, “You’ve scared off Jasper with your enthusiasm, Zoe. It might be best to turn it down a notch.”
Penelope sighed. “You’re not ten anymore, and he’s not just your ‘brother’ to play around with any longer.

“He’s the CEO of his family’s company now, which puts him in a critical position where no mistakes can be made. The way you interacted with him earlier today might not be appropriate. I think it-”
“Mom.” Zoe sat up, meeting her mother’s gaze. “I wasn’t playing around earlier, and I don’t think of him as just a playmate anymore.”
“What do you mean?”
“Why do you think I refused the dream offer from RYO? I’m back in Solana City because I want to marry Jasper and be his wife.”
“What?” Penelope cried, sitting up in shock. “Are you crazy? He’s like a brother to you!”
“Yes, but he’s not my actual brother!” Zoe said excitedly. “I’ve waited so long for him to finally end things with that Gardner chick. Now that they’re over, I finally get my chance.”
Penelope was concerned for her daughter, who was deep in her merry fantasies.
“What is it, Mom? Don’t you want us to be together?” Zoe asked, shaking her mother’s hand.
“No, no. It’s just that Jasper is a wonderful man, but he’s not a good choice for marriage. Not only was he involved with Liana Gardner, but I heard from your brother that he was even married once.
“You’re too naive, Zoe. Jasper has a complicated past. I’m so worried you’ll find yourself unhappy and

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🙄...
