Can't Win Me Back - Season 3 Episode 76

Sean and Jasper tensed up in confrontation.

“Oh, Mr. Beckett. I wonder if I should callthis a pleasant coincidence or bad luck,”Sean was

smiling but harsh with his words.

“Is Alyssa Taylor in there?”Jasperquestioned with a scowl. Liana’s heart was racing, and

she went numb at the mention of Alyssa’s name.

“Why? Can’t she be here?”Sean smirkedand retorted,”It’s not like you booked the entire

garden to yourself.”

“Tsk, Mr. Beckett did nothing except ask aquestion! What’s with your attitude?”Xavier

chided Sean.

“Really? It’s pretty shameless of you tomake that claim. You’re giving me second-hand

embarrassment,” Sean mocked him

with a frown.

“You _”

“Enough, Xavier,”Jasper stopped Xavier.Then, he questioned flatly,”What’s Alyssa doing

here?”

Sean’s cold gaze swept past Liana, who was clinging to Jasper. With an arched brow, he

snickered.”She’s here for the same reason as you are!”

Jasper’s f rown deepened after learning that. Alyss a had indeed developed an interest in

the rose garden. Too bad he would never let her have it!

…

At the same time, Alyssa had ventured deeper into the bushes, holding the hem of her

skirt. She looked like a dainty fairy underneath the colors of the sunset.

She squatted in the mud without much fuss and pinched the soil with her hands. She

carefully observed the stems and

petals, even taking photos with her phone and making detailed notes.

The other young ladies at the rose garden were there for the view and the photo-taking.

Only Alyss a appeared to be on her treasure hunt.

Contrary to her appearance, Alyssa was far from being a romantic. Instead, she was a st

out believer in pragmatism and capitalism. The only thing on her mind was making money.

An ambitious woman was charming in her way.

Jameson stood with his arms on his back and waited patiently outside the bushes. He had

a doting smile on his face as he mumbled, “Lyse, you haven’t changed at all. That’s

lovely.”

Right then, he was distracted by a call from Carl. He picked up the call with a steeled

expression.”What’s the matter?”

“Mr. Schmidt, Jasper Beckett is here,”

Carl whispered,”The staff from the Beckett Group reached out to me about the

partnership, but I did not give them a definitive answer per your orders.

“I never thought they’d act fast and showup with experts for a site inspection. I think they

are dead set on the collaboration.”

Jameson stared keenly at Alyssa, who was busy with her tasks in the bushes. He asked in a

hushed voice, “Who else is here apart from the Beckett Group personnel?”

“Jasper Beckett’s rumored fiancée is here.They must be really in love if he’s willing to

bring her on a business visit.”Carl sounded sarcastic.

Head in the rose shrubs, Alyssa was clueless about the situation.

Jameson lamented secretly, “Lyse, is he the man you loved? You changed your last name

and married down just to stay by his side for three years. What a fool you are.”

Anger welled up in his chest. He asked,”Have you made the preparations I asked of you?”

“Yes, Mr. Schmidt!” Carl responded.

“Bring it over. Get someone to lead theBeckett Group guys here.”Jameson nudged his

glasses with flashing eyes.

After squatting for a while, Alyssa felt the soreness in her waist. She slowly rose from the

bushes, wiping away her sweat with light panting.
