Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 382

Whenever Jasper saw Alyssa getting close to someone from the opposite sex, it frustrated him. He so badly wanted to rid her of the men.

He sensed that he was getting weirder and more begrudged by the day. The self-control he had always prided himself on was nowhere to be found when he was with Alyssa.

Alyssa was riled up upon hearing his remark. She said mockingly, "Yeah, we do know each other. We're archenemies."

"Alyssa," Jasper croaked. His chest tightened.

"An ex-husband shouldn't be out telling everyone about our 'relationship.' You should lay low and shut up. Don't you have any manners?"

Her ex-husband? Vincent was shocked to learn that Alexa had been married. He hadn't heard of it, even as her close friend of many years. The question was, why did she marry Jasper?

Alexa was a goddess who had better options. Why did she choose to marry a jealous fellow?

"Mr. Beckett, you want to find trouble? I'm fine with that. The sight of you has already pissed me off anyway. But I don't want to drag Mr. Carter, an important friend, into this," she hissed and added, " ... if you still care about your reputation."

Clenching his jaw, Jasper felt gutted. His fingers dug hard into his sweaty palms.

Alyssa seemed willing to speak up and defend any individual against him. As for him, an ex-husband she had once loved deeply, was unworthy.

"The show is about to begin. Aren't you supposed to keep your girl company? She'll be anxious if she can't find you." Alyssa prepared to leave with Vincent, leaving Jasper frozen on the ground.

In a panic, Jasper seized her arm and tightened his grip.

"Hey, you have nothing to do with her if you're divorced! Please show her some respect!" Vincent intervened, only to be stopped by Alyssa.

She urged, "Vincent, they're waiting for your speech. Go ahead. I'll be fine."
