Author: Ginger Sue
Alyssa burst into laughter. Mia had no choice but to laugh too. Jasper frowned.

"I'll take that, but there's no need to feel shy. I can make more of this painting. You can have it." Alyssa's words carried hints of mockery.

Upon hearing that, Jasper's expression went stiff as he balled his fists.

"You went through so much to meet me. I bet it's not for some paintings. Let's cut to the chase." She didn't have time to beat around the bush with him.

"Honestly, I'm here for the issue regarding

  • Can't Win Me Back   Chapter 2605

    Alyssa could feel Justin's chest rising and falling with his heavy breathing, like an undercurrent surging toward her wave after wave. She could even clearly smell the bitter scent of medicine that always lingered on his garments.Every single thing filled her with profound disgust, making her stomach churn. "Even if I put my trust in you, would you be able to achieve that?" she asked. As much as she wanted to pull away from him, his arm was incredibly strong, locked around her waist so tightly that she couldn't move an inch. "I am most certainly able to do it, as long as you believe in me and remain by my side."With his left hand, Justin stroked her dark, silky hair. Meanwhile, he reached his right hand underneath the blanket, wrapping his fingers around a syringe. He pressed his pale lips right against her ear, murmuring tenderly, "Lyse, the situation has come to this. I have no one else left but you. Would you be willing to come with me?"Spurred by a dangerously sharp int

    A police officer stood guard at the entrance to Justin's hospital ward, a presence that made Alyssa feel a little more at ease. However, the moment she stepped inside, the door clicked shut behind her, making her heart leap again. Step by step, she approached the hospital bed, her gaze cold and unyielding. She tried to mask her emotions, but the hatred she carried for Justin seeped through her every movement. She despised him—utterly and completely. His very presence repulsed her. This remained true even though the man sitting up in bed, leaning against the headboard, looked exceptionally handsome. His fair complexion and well-defined features exuded a refined elegance. Most women would fall for him at first glance, utterly captivated by his flawless act. Little would they know that beneath it all, he was a monster in disguise—a wolf in sheep's clothing. "It seems I was right about you." Justin narrowed his eyes at Alyssa, curling his lips into a gentle, relieved smile. "Now

    In an instant, Alyssa's heart leaped into her throat. She forced herself to stay composed beneath Damien's piercing gaze. "What? Nothing's wrong. I'm fine," she replied, her voice steady but thin. Damien's eyes softened with concern. "I've been watching you since dinner. You looked pale then, and now you're even paler. You look… anemic."His voice dropped, warm and probing. "Tell me—what's going on? Did something happen?" "No, not at all. I'm just exhausted. Winston handed me KS Group—a massive corporation—to manage. I'm not a superwoman. Of course I struggle sometimes."Alyssa pouted as she grumbled, "Winston just had too much drive when he was young. Why did he have to build such a sprawling empire? I'm working myself to death trying to keep it afloat!"Damien sighed helplessly. "I don't know much about business, but Jasper could help. He's experienced."Alyssa's eyes welled, her voice catching. "Jasper has already done more than enough. I can manage on my own. I don't want

    Alyssa hung up abruptly, saying nothing else. She stared at the darkened screen, her chest heaving as her breathing turned ragged. It took her several long moments to regain her composure. Should she meet Justin?The safest path was clearly to decline, avoiding all risks and potential traps. However, that wasn't in her nature. Feigning ignorance while Justin was free felt like cowardice. Now that he had been bailed out, his influence, his darkness, and his psychosis were unpredictable variables. As long as he was alive, he would continue to rise from the ashes. She remembered his uncle, Zachary, who had been sentenced to death for murder only to have his sentence commuted to life imprisonment after providing proof of psychosis. With "expert guidance", he had operated from behind bars for years, using a scapegoat to serve his time while he remained free.Though the legal system had evolved, Justin was more than capable of exploiting similar loopholes to evade justice while on medi

    Alyssa received the notification during a board meeting at KS Group's headquarters. As she read the news that Justin had been granted medical furlough, she slammed her hand against the table and surged to her feet, her eyes burning with fury. The board members, caught off guard by her sudden outburst, held their breath, terrified to make a sound. "We're done for today," Alyssa said, her voice sharp. "Meeting dismissed."With that, she stormed out of the conference room, her expression frigid. Once inside her office, she began to pace, the frustration evident as a thin sheen of sweat formed on her forehead. "What happened? Why was that devil released?" Sean's eyes were bloodshot with rage. Through gritted teeth, he said, "I've heard the details. Justin's attorney submitted a comprehensive diagnostic report claiming he suffers from severe psychosis. They've even produced medical records suggesting a hereditary history on his mother's side."Alyssa's hands shook so violently tha

    Jasper had just emerged from the conference room after a grueling evening meeting with the Beckett Group when his phone rang with a call from Cyrus. "Jasper, I have bad news," Cyrus said, his voice heavy. "The higher-ups signed off on the paperwork. Justin has been released on bail.""What?" Jasper's heart sank. "How is that possible? What exactly happened?" "His attorney handed new evidence over to the police, proving he suffers from severe psychosis. Apparently, it runs in the family—both his mother and his uncle have the same diagnosis. To make matters worse, they had a paper trail of detailed medical records and an official psychiatric evaluation report to back it up!"Furious, Cyrus cursed, "Damn it, that freaking bastard! I never imagined his psychosis would become his lifeline. I've already contacted the forensics team. Justin's currently out on medical furlough, but he can't run—he's still under strict police surveillance. "I want to see how long he can keep up this psy

    The ballroom dance had ended by then. The spotlight shifted to the center of the hall as all attention turned to the Jesseltons. The Becketts and the Harpers nervously stared at Ezzo. The Harpers hoped to resolve their current crisis by winning the project with the Jesseltons. Meanwhile, the Beckett

    The KS Group? The Taylors?After a brief shocked silence, the applause thundered across the hall as the spotlight shifted onto Winston, who looked surprised before putting on a relieved smile. He gracefully went up the stage to shake hands with Ezzo. "It's our honor to work with you."Since Ezzo chose

    Winston looked at Tatiana sharply, then turned to Victor. "Taty is Lyla and my youngest daughter. She's the apple of my eye. We've been selecting a suitable husband for her. Originally, I wished for her to marry into the Schmidt family."But back then, you favored Lyse, so I had to find another man f

    Jasper stared at the unfamiliar phone number on the screen. He was stunned for a moment. Not many people knew his personal number. Under ordinary circumstances, if unknown individuals had dialed his number by mistake, he would never have answered their calls.However, for some strange reason, his hea
