Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 562

The news had come in—Sharon had made it clear that she had no intention of designing a dress for Sophia.

"Sharon's studio staff informed us that she will not design a dress for you, no matter what amount you offer," Betty timidly conveyed the message to Sophia.

Sophia's eyes bulged in anger. She growled, "But why?"

"Mom, don't press for the reason," Betty found it difficult to disclose Sharon's reasoning.

"Quit beating around the bush! Tell me now!"

Shuddering, Betty bit the bullet and confessed, "Sharon said that she will not ruin her reputation by designing dresses for clients with tainted reputations."

Betty had, in fact, rephrased Sharon's words to sound civil, as Sharon's original remark was incredibly insulting. It appeared that Sharon held Sophia in low regard.

"Damn it! This is outrageous!" Sophia exclaimed in a fit of rage and hurled her expensive makeup products onto the floor. Her eyes blazed with anger, and her face turned beet red.

"She's just a dress designer. Who does she think she is? Without Sharon's dress, I can still outshine that bitch, Lyla Nelson, on her big day!"

Suddenly, the room was enveloped by silence.

Betty saw Javier standing like a statue by the door and panicked. "D-Dad …"

Sophia quickly spun around and saw her husband wearing a sullen expression. She immediately cooed, "Javier, you're back from your business trip! When did you get home? Why didn't you tell—"

Javier cut her off, frowning at the sight of the mess in the room, saying, "What are you up to now? Why did you smash your stuff?"

"I wanted the designer, Sharon, to tailor a dress for my birthday party. Not only did she snub me, but she also verbally abused me! How can I ever get over this?"

Teary-eyed, Sophia ran up and hugged Javier. Her demeanor resembled that of a teenage girl that even Betty couldn't emulate.

Sophia continued, "Javier, as your wife, I represent both you and the Beckett Group. Sharon's actions are like a slap in your face and a blatant disrespect to the company. You need to stand up for me and have her blacklisted! Teach her the consequences of crossing Mrs. Beckett."
