Chapter 347
Three days passed in a blur. News of Ada Kingsley’s arrival in Solana City reached both national and
international media in a blitz of reports.
On the night of the welcoming party, Ada Kingsley arrived at Berenike Hotel dressed in a lavender haute
couture gown, her hair styled into waves that cascaded down to her knees.
Sophia had invited herself to the party.
Her hair was styled in an elaborate bird’s nest atop her head, revealing two large sapphire earrings and a
teardrop-shaped sapphire at her neck. They were named “Halcyon” by its creator. It looked like she had a
mini apartment building on her head.
“Didn’t you have another piece of crystal prettier than this teardrop, Mom? Why aren’t you wearing that
one?” Betty asked curiously.
Sophia gritted her teeth, hand clenching around her necklace. “Because of that bitch, Liana! God knows
what she and her family got into, owing that much debt!/
“With my shop having no sales and the police still on the lookout, I had no choice but to sell that crystal
off to help them!”
“Goodness! If it were me, I’d cry myself to death. That was a birthday present from Dad!” Betty cried, “I
don’t understand why you keep helping the Gardners. You should just let them rot away and die.”
“Hmph. I wish I could…” Sophia grumbled.
Unfortunately for her, she had never anticipated losing this game of power when she made Liana her
pawn to win Jasper’s heart.
Not only did Jasper become even more hostile toward her, but her pawn was also turning against her now!
Liana had contacted her from Mosgravia asking for more money a couple of days ago, nearly making
Sophia send out the order to kill her.
But she couldn’t, not yet. She had to utilize Liana while she was still useful. That was why Sophia had
promised the girl she could return to Solana City soon.
“What do you think of my dress, Mom?”
Betty did a little twirl, showing off her purple dress. Ever since she saw Landon in that purple-colored suit,
she had dreamed of wearing something that matched him, like they were a couple.

Betty added, “I wanna dazzle everyone tonight!”
“Forget about it,” Sophia scoffed, “Ada is the star of the event tonight. You’d never top her.”
She then pulled the dress down until Betty’s cleavage was more visible.
Sophia remarked, “You won’t have a lot of chances to get close to Landon Harper, so focus on how to
utilize those slim opportunities rather than compete in this useless peacock pageant.
“You could be the prettiest one tonight, and Landon still might not want you!”
Liana had backfired on her, and Lauren was useless, so Sophia could only rely on Betty now.

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🙄...
Hello, more chapters please. It has been over 1 week since we have received 7 chapters. Thank you...
Just wonder what happened to publish 7 chap/day...
You upload shows 5/21/24 01:20, but I read these chapters 5/20/24 9:26. you can't go back with time only forward...
