Chapter 768
The doors of the three cars opened simultaneously. Zoe and Penelope disembarked from their respective
vehicles, followed by the gray-haired Cornelius, dressed in an opulent black fur coat. Holding a walking
stick with a golden eagle carving, he exited the car with Zoe’s help, looking stern.
“Dad, be careful,” Penelope cautioned while approaching him.
Cornelius let out a heavy sigh at the sight of the Becketts’ gate. “Jasper did not show up at all when you
visited the Becketts to discuss marriage. Is that right?”
She bit her lips and nodded shamefully. “Yes.”
“You’re useless.”
Zoe silently pouted, seemingly unhappy at her mom as well.
Penelope explained fearfully, “You know Jasper’s character well. Even Javier can’t force him to do
anything against his will. Sophia, as his stepmother, is of no use at all.”
Ever since Penelope’s husband’s passing, Landon had been the pillar of support for their small family.
Without Landon, Cornelius would have looked down on Penelope even more.
“You’re Zoe’s mom. How could you be of no help when she’s bullied? All you can do is wallow in
helplessness and anger,” growled Cornelius, who poked Penelope with his stick.
He added, “The Harpers are a distinguished family in Solana City. Everyone holds us in high regard. But
now, I am forced to show up to settle the mess caused by that Beckett fellow. Is this how you show your
respect to me?”
“Dad, it’s all my fault. I’m useless,” Penelope apologized profusely, head hung low.
“Grandpa, Mom has tried her best. You should stop blaming her,” Zoe spoke up for Penelope while holding
Cornelius’ arm.
Cornelius’ eyes were spitting fire. His temples were throbbing. “Jasper is an arrogant little brat! He
basically humiliated the Harper family with his actions. He’d better behave today and agree to marry Zoe.
If not, I will treat the Becketts as our archenemy!”
In a lounge at the nightclub, Betty was partying with her friends, reveling in a hedonistic lifestyle. She
danced closely with two nearly naked male models amidst excited screams.
In a daze, Betty stretched her neck and poured red wine all over her trembling chest. Witnessing this, a male model hugged her tight and started licking her from the neck down to her chest.
This elicited more cheers and screams around her as she laughed hysterically.
After the lustful moments, she grabbed a wine bottle and slumped on the couch. While downing the wine,
she let out uncontrollable laughs.
“Ms. Betty? Ms. Betty!” Her assistant walked up to her and kneeled. “There’s a situation at Seaview Manor
now.”

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...
