Jasper responded, "I'm just curious."
"I didn't do much. I just disfigured her," Landon revealed.
When Landon recalled the pitiful state Betty was in when she was tortured in the warehouse that day, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, no wonder. I was wondering why I hadn't seen her lately. She's probably too embarrassed to show her face in public anymore."
Jasper nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly looked at Landon seriously. "During this time when you've been staying with Lauren, you didn't do anything to her, did you?"
At this question, Landon's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly recalled the scene from last night where he and Lauren were entangled in the bathroom, kissing as if they couldn't bear to part. At once, he felt a rush of heat from his lower abdomen.
Just as he was unsure how to answer, Xavier urgently ran over from the other end of the corridor.
"M-Mr. Beckett, Ms. Alyssa is here."
Hearing that, Landon widened his eyes and looked at Jasper.
Meanwhile, upon hearing that Alyssa was here, Jasper seemed to be in a daze and asked again, "Who's here?"
"Ms. Alyssa. Alyssa Taylor. She's in the banquet hall right now." Xavier was ecstatic and couldn't stop grinning.
That was because he hadn't seen his boss' wife for quite some time.
He didn't know whether Jasper missed her, but Xavier missed her quite a bit.
"Jasper, is Lyse here to see you? Damn, your patience paid off!" Landon excitedly patted Jasper on the shoulder.
"Many elite figures in Solana City will be at the cocktail party tonight."
Suppressing his emotions, Jasper said solemnly, "She might just be here to expand her social network. After all, she will inherit the Taylor family business."
"My goodness. Why don't you think positively for once? You're really something else."

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🙄...
