Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 906

Nina paced back and forth in the garden after speaking to Alyssa on the phone. She was in distress.

This was the first time she had ever done something like this in her life. Her heart wasn't strong enough to take it.

She returned to the villa anxiously.

All of a sudden, her heart stopped for a second. Jasper, who hadn't returned for a long time, entered the villa.

"Mr. Beckett … Mr. Beckett!"

Nina broke into a sweat. Her face paled as she ran after Jasper. She went in front of him to block him.

She had been working as a maid here for many years, but she never dared to talk to him. She had no idea where she got the courage to charge toward him.

Jasper frowned slightly. "What can I do for you?"

"I-I … You …" Nina cursed herself for getting tongue-tied now.

"You can take your time." Jasper looked at her lightly.

He had never had this level of patience before. Now, Alyssa had completely influenced him. He was more easygoing and rational now.

Nina bit her lip hard. Her face reddened. She contemplated telling Jasper the truth—that Sophia had killed his mother.

She doubted if Jasper would believe her.

She took a step forward. She made sure no one was around and lowered his voice. "Mr. Beckett, I'm meeting with Ms. Taylor in secret somewhere tonight. C-Can you join us?"

Jasper was shocked as his eyes constricted. He leaned his body forward abruptly. "What did you say? You are meeting—"

"Nina! What are you doing?"

Suddenly, a shrill voice came from above them.

Nina looked up and saw Betty's fierce expression. She was terrified.

Jasper noticed how oddly she was behaving. He had noticed her stuttering earlier. He deduced that Betty must have had something to do with it.

"Get up here quickly. I received some clothes earlier. Come and help me organize them. Hurry up!"

"Yes, Ms. Betty." Nina pursed her lips. Torn, she looked at Jasper.

Jasper inched closer to her. He spoke to her voice in a voice only audible to both of them, "I will ask Xavier to get in touch with you. Please let him know where you are meeting Ms. Taylor tonight."

…

Nina returned to Betty's room at lightning speed. Betty had a mountain of clothes for her to manage.

The moment the door closed, the look on Betty's face changed. She called Sophia.

Mom, I gave that bitch, Nina, time off tonight. I want to see if she takes the bait. I saw her speaking to Jasper privately earlier. That little bitch may be the spy Jasper placed around me."

"Take the bait?" Sophia's tone was harsh.

"Yeah! Why would a maid like Nina have the guts to do something like that? Someone must have her back. This way, I can lure the person giving her orders out. Then, we will see who we are up against."

A sinister smile appeared on Betty's face. She was proud of her scheme.

"You imbecile! How could you be so stupid?"

Sophia scolded her. "You're laying trouble for us for the future. Did you know that? I asked you to keep an eye on her. Now, you're letting her loose to talk to other people?

"You don't need an extra brain cell to know who we're up against. It's either Jasper or Alyssa. What if she secretly meets Alyssa tonight? What are we supposed to do? If she tells anyone what she knows, we'll be ruined."

Betty shuddered and slapped herself hard on the forehead. She was so shortsighted not to see this coming.

"Nina will take action tonight."

Sophia exhaled hard. Her voice was chilling and sinister. "She can walk out of Seaview Manor. But if she walks out of here, don't expect her to come back ever again."
