Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 387

The following day, Xavier hurriedly knocked on Jasper's office door at the Beckett Group, announcing, "Mr. Beckett, you wanted me to look into—Argh!"

Xavier trailed off with a scream. It was too late to stop Jasper, who was seated on the table and casually lifting a pastry out of the dirty box.

With a satisfied crunch, Jasper took a massive bite of the pastry and scrunched up his eyes in enjoyment.

"Oh god! How could you eat the food you picked from the trashcan?" Xavier warned him.

"Only the box is dirty. The pastries are fine," Jasper replied nonchalantly as he took another bite.

The pastries tasted delightful, but too bad they weren't for him.

Bitterness welled up inside him. He had once been dismissive of Alyssa's daily efforts in crafting these desserts. Now, he found himself rummaging through the trash can just to get a taste. How did he get to this point?

"Go ahead. How's the investigation?" Jasper put away the remaining pastries and questioned leisurely.

"Ahem. After using both carrots and sticks, the owner of the verified account offered up an important clue!"

"Don't beat around the bush."

"He said he received the photos of the wedding venue through an anonymous message. He claimed he was only a messenger who had no idea about the leaker."

"How did you spend your free time?" Jasper looked up coldly.

"Huh?" Xavier was taken aback.
