Chapter 43
“But my sister is an upstanding businesswoman. It’s very unfair for her to be slandered like that. Besides, this just had to happen when Lia and Jasper were about to get married …..” Sophia said.
“Upstanding? You mean dishonest!” said Newton scornfully. Sophia froze. “Don’t think I know nothing just because I’m old and no longer on the front lines. The Gardner Group dug its own grave by doing business dishonestly!
Also, you don’t have to threaten me with Jasper. If he wants to marry a woman from the Gardner family, then I shall disown him! You guys can go ahead and date whoever you want. You don’t even have to come to my funeral when I die!” Newton ranted.
“Dad!” Javier sighed. Sophia was crying, but her gaze was icy. She was done being oppressed by Newton for more than twenty years! She wished he would die with regrets!
“Grandpa!” Jasper strode toward Newton and reached out to stroke his back, but Newton pushed him away. “You don’t have to put on an
act! You’re just like your father, who also gave his all to some bitch!” said Newton angrily.
“I won’t help the Gardner Group. I’ve made it clear long ago,” Jasper said calmly. Newton’s eyes lit up instantly, and he said, “Really?!”
“Yes. Gardner Group is indeed unscrupulous, so I will not help them.”
“What about you and that Gardner girl
“Lia has nothing to do with this. The marriage will still proceed,” said Jasper plainly.
Newton sighed and said, “Fine, fine. At least you’re aware of something. I haven’t doted on you in vain! You’re a little better than your
foolish father!”
Newton waved a hand defeatedly. He didn’t understand what had gotten into his grandson’s head to make him give up on a good girl like
Alice and marry a trouble–making wench!
“Aunt Sophia.” Jasper looked at Sophia and said coldly, “Rosaline is your sister, so I can understand if you want to help your own family.
but on one condition. You cannot harm the interests of the Beckett Group.
“Otherwise, wouldn’t you be going against your own saying about doing everything for the good of the Beckett family?”
Sophia was left speechless and flushed. What an imbecile! He had been such a coward when he was a kid that he wouldn’t make a sound even if in pain. Now that he was an adult, he had become a harsh and sharp–tongued person!
“Dad, although Lia is my fiancée, I am a very unbiased person. I never involve my private relationships in work–related matters. I hope that you will always put the company’s interests first as the chairman,” said Jasper. His tone was fully businesslike.
“I went to Yoarkley to attend a conference and discuss a major overseas project, but the other party called off the meeting at the last minute. In the end, I found out that it was because he was intercepted by the president of KS Group, Jonah Taylor.
“I have no idea what Jonah offered him, but he dropped his intentions of cooperating with our company. So many things happened, and everything had to do with the Taylor Group. They are obviously going against us. How could I let them win again and bully us?”

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...
