Can't Win Me Back



Chapter 2351

Justin tilted his chin upward slightly, his eyes flashing with a cold, ruthless glare that made him seem like an entirely different person.

"As the saying goes, a leopard cannot change its spots. Ms. Gardner, are you trying to prove to me through your actions how impotent of a person you naturally are?"

"Mr. Justin, please calm down..." Sheryl flinched, her face marked with a handprint, her skin pale with fear as she trembled. "I know I'm not very bright. I honestly don't know what I did wrong. Please, enlighten me...

"When speaking with Jasper, all you need to do is to get the main point across. There is no need to get into the details."

Justin closed his eyes and leaned back casually. "Yet, tonight, you brought up the kidnapping incident from 20 years ago at a crucial point in my conversation with him. That was very untimely."

Feeling perplexed, Sheryl responded, "But... you saved his life. This is a fact. I was just reminding him of it so that he remembers to be thankful!*

Justin scoffed and narrowed his eyes. "Thankful? He has even forgotten about his feelings for Alyssa. Why would he care about what I did for him?

"Those three pills would cause him brain damage. This is a double-edged sword. He does not feel anything toward Alyssa. In the same way, he will not feel anything toward me either.

Jasper currently has doubts about me. Every word you say will plant seeds of doubt in his heart. I can let this incident slide this time, but from now on, do not bring up the incident from 20 years ago. We will get ourselves in trouble if we're not careful."

Sheryl fell silent. Even so, she couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Justin, in that case, does that put us on the losing end? Jasper is getting more and more out of control. Wouldn't he come against you in the future, then?"

"We are meant to go against one another. Plus, he will soon realize I have been stalling."

Justin curled the corners of his lips upward slightly to show his determination. "But that doesn't matter anymore. It would all be too late by the time he truly realizes it."RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

After parting ways with Justin, Xavier drove Jasper back toward Seaview Manor in his Maybach.

"Mr. Beckett, are you really okay? You look really bad." Xavier's chest tightened, and his heart filled with worry as he looked at Jasper's pale face through the rearview mirror.

Jasper lowered his eyes and answered in a weak and breathless voice, "I'm fine."

Xavier sighed. "If only Dr. Lovelace is around at this time. At least he would be of some help!"

"He is a neurologist while I am suffering from a gunshot wound. How is he going to be of help?"

All of a sudden, Jasper was reminded of Alyssa again.

She was utterly outstanding and remarkable. They had been through too many heart-stopping moments that he could not neglect her. He couldn't help but think of her involuntarily.

Especially after last night, he felt even more indebted and remorseful toward her.

"Damn it... Did Justin put some kind of surveillance on you?'

Xavier gripped the steering wheel tightly in anger. "How did he know that you were hurt? Also, how did he time himself so well to actually show up in front of Mr. Taylor and blabber all that? He's freaking Jamiper 2.0!"

All of a sudden, Jasper's eyes widened in realization.

Ever since Jameson made a fool of him, Jasper had installed anti-hacking and anti-monitoring software on his phone. No one could monitor his cell phone.

Moreover, ever since he and Alyssa separated, they barely spoke on the phone. So, how in the world did Justin get to know everything?

Just at this moment, Jasper's gaze ended up unintentionally on the dashcam that had been fixed on the rearview mirror.

That night, Alyssa got into his car, where they had their conversation.

Therefore, the issue was within the car.

After getting back to Seaview Manor, Jasper went to his study speedily. He also instructed Xavier to retrieve the surveillance footage from the parking lot as well as the memory card from his dashcam.

Xavier completed all of that shortly after and returned to the study to report back to Jasper.

"Mr. Beckett, there are no abnormalities recorded in the surveillance footage."

Truth be told, Jasper guessed as much. If anyone had done anything to his car, the surveillance footage would be the first piece of evidence that needed to be destroyed.

With a calm look on his face, he inserted the memory card into his laptop.
