Chapter 350
Sophia instantly introduced herself, a hint of pride in her tone. “I’m Beckett Group’s president’s wife, Sophia Kirkman.”
“I don’t understand what she’s saying, Mr. Jasper. You don’t need to translate for me, though. I’m not interested in her.” Ada didn’t look at Sophia again, continuing her conversation in Furancian with Jasper.
Sophia could only understand a quarter of what they were saying. When she was about to re-introduce herself in Furancian, Jasper said lightly to Ada, “We don’t see eye to eye, and I don’t plan on introducing
irrelevant people to you either, Ms. Kingsley.”
Sophia froze in place upon hearing that.
A flurry of snickers and sarcasm rose from the crowd around her.
“Wow! Ada’s really brave for turning down Mrs. Beckett like that. Who knew she was just as flawless when
being herself as she was when acting?”
“Are you kidding me? Why would Ada Kingsley give a shit about our country’s business and economy? She’s Mosgravian, for God’s sake. ‘Beckett Group’s president’s wife’ my ass!”
“Right? Sophia Kirkman can shove her snobbishness elsewhere!”
Sophia’s face flushed in embarrassment. Still, she had to keep her image up. So, she forced another
smile. “We’re happy you decided to attend our hotel’s party tonight, Ms. Kingsley.
“I’m sure you know all about our competitor, KS World Hotel. As the company’s matriarch, I am truly
honored you chose us over them.”
Jasper’s gaze grew cold when he heard Sophia referring to herself as the company’s matriarch. He
scoffed inwardly.
Xavier quickly stepped in to translate for Sophia out of kindness.
“I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood my being here.” Ada shook her head. “Both Berenike Hotel and KS World
Hotel are wonderful in their own right, but I didn’t choose to attend your event because of the hotel’s
reputation.
“I did so because Mr. Jasper has proven himself an honorable, sincere, and charismatic individual worthy
of my attention.”
Sophia’s cheeks burned once again as if she had been slapped.
1/2
Though Ada seemed distant from the mundane affairs of the world, she was secretly an intelligent and
keen woman.
If she had agreed to Sophia’s words in public, she would be acknowledging that Berenike Hotel was
better than KS World Hotel.
Not only would that offend the latter, but it would also mean she had chosen Berenike Hotel to have her
wedding at.
Ada wasn’t so stupid as to fall for Sophia’s trap!
Right when the atmosphere grew awkward, the main hall doors opened.
Zoe walked in in a Swavroski studded pink tulle gown, looking like some fairytale creature.
“Is that world-famous pianist Christina Hammond’s student Zoe Harper?”
“She’s not just her student. She’s also Landon Harper’s kid sister!”
“Landon Harper’s kid sister? You mean my future sister-in-law?”
“Who would my sister-in-law be in that case? Betty Beckett? Ugh! I don’t like her. She’s fucking weird, man.

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...
