Can't Win Me Back - Season 3 Episode 69

Alyssa couldn’t understand Winston’s persistence. She wondered why she couldn’t have a

say in the matter.

“I’m in a meeting, Winston. We can chit-chat in private, not here,” she grunted lowly.

“Chit-chat? Your marriage is no me re chit-chat!”Winston snorted.”If you want tobecome

KS Group’s CEO, then you have to attend this!”

Alyssa cursed silently at Winston. She couldn’t help but wonder if Jasper had put him up to

this.

“Alright, fine! But not today. I’m in ameeting now!”Alyssa sighed. She was taking things

slow now, never taking more than she could chew.

“Hmph. Alright. You can’t refuse forever.”

Alyssa scowled, thinking to herself, “Try

harder, old man!”

The rest of the meeting went by awkwardly, with the team members fearful of upsetting

Alyss a and getting into trouble.

Afterward, Alyssa returned to her office and lay back on her sofa, resembling a robot that

had run out of battery-utterly motionless.

Sean came into the room with coffee, asking, “Is something wrong with the project, Ms.

Alyssa?”

“That heartless old man,” Alyssacomplained, gazing up at the ceiling. “I helped him

spearhead this hotel to success and even got the company the Verdane Valley project.

“It’s fine if he doesn’t thank me, but he’sstill trying to screw me over with blind dating?

Maybe I should have become a secret agent like Axel!”

“I know you care about him the most, Ms.

Alyssa. You know Mr. Winston is getting older. He will have to pass the mantle on soon.

You’ll surely stick around to care for your family, this business, and him, of course.”Sean

beamed at her, sitting down beside her.

Then, he continued, “Plus, you’re still needed in KS Group. We have countless rivals, both

hidden and visible.

“And sometimes, there’s conflict withinthe company itself. I’ve watched Mr. Winston take

everything on, and honestly, he can be under immense pressure at times. But I know he’s

only doing his best in his position as President and to support this family.”

“I know,”Alyssa sighed. She then kickedher heels off.

Sean swallowed lightly, then placed her feet in his lap before covering them up with a

throw. He then started massaging them.

Besides his mother, Alyss a was the only other woman he’d done this for.

“That’s why I want to take over and letJonah step away from this once and for all. I know I

have what it takes.”

Not only did she have what it takes, but she was also very persistent and adamant about

succeeding.

If it weren’t for her wasting her time with Jasper, she could have propelled KS Group to

even greater success than it currently enjoys.

She silently cursed at Jasper.

“Maybe it will be good to go on this date,Ms. Alyssa. You could make a new friend. It’s not

like Mr. Winston wants you to marry your date. He’s just very concerned about you,”Sean

said, though he couldn’t help but feel envious.

Yet he had long accepted how non-existent his chance with Alyss a was. She

was an unreachable blossom above the highest mountain peaks, not meant for someone

as minuscule as himself.

“You have a point. It’s just a blind date. Itcan’t be worse than war!” Alyssa grinned,

wriggling her feet underneath the throw. Sean shivered slightly, keeping out of her way.”I

have just the plan.”

“What is it, Ms. Alyssa?”

Alyssa stood up straight, walking barefoot to her desk.

Not wanting her feet to get cold, Sean ran over with her heels and quickly knelt by her

feet. “Please put these on, Ms. Alyssa.”

Alyssa let him help her put the heels on, then leaned against her desk to start writing

some of her plans down. A list soon came into existence.

“Here, pre pare everything according tothis list.”She handed it to Sean, who took it with a

confused look. When he read through the paper, he laughed.

“You’re having too much fun, Ms. Alyssa.”
