Can't Win Me Back - Season 3 Episode 95

“Do I look pitiful, dumb, and laughable toyou?” Jasper’s voice was surprisingly scorched.

He forced a bitter smile.

Landon shook his head with seriousness.”No, Jasper. I’m your only friend and best bud. I

won’t laugh at you no matter what happens. It’s just … a pity.”

“A pity?” Jasper closed his raging eyesand mentally shredded the memories of Liana at the

birthday party.

“It’s not a pity. If anything, I was blindand bad at judging her character. I deserved

everything that had happened to me.”

“No, it’s not that.”Landon sighedwistfully.”I think it was a pity that you missed the chance

of making your marriage work in the three years, all because of Liana. You could have

been happy with Alyssa instead of turning into

enemies like now. Don’t you think?”

Jasper froze up at the possibility of a happy life with Alyssa. He fell into a daze, replaying memories.

“Jasper, can we not get a divorce? It’sbecause … I love you.”

A loud ringing persisted in his ears, along with a terrible headache. He quickly held onto

the wall as his fingers curled into a fist. He felt his throat closing up and his chest

pounding in pain.

Alyss a had once begged him not to get a divorce in tears. He dismissed her plea as a last-

ditch attempt to keep the marriage. Ignoring her plea, he perceived her as a prison that he

needed to get out of.

He realized too late that Alyss a never intended to tie him down. She humbly professed

her love for him one last time in hopes that she could keep loving him.

Knowing he had never loved her, she tried her best to keep him around because she

feared losing the right to love him after the divorce.

“That poor little girl must have beenaround three or four. That means Liana Gardner had

been sleeping with that man behind your back when she was at Mosgravia.

“If my memory serves me correctly, shewas stringing you along and bothering you. She

gave off the impression that she was in exile at Mosgravia because she was willing to give

in and wait for you. It seems she had a pretty busy social life behind your back.”

Jasper grabbed his collar. He trembled violently from the heartache, and each breath he

took felt like the end of him.

“Liana was never short of men. You werejust one of them.”Landon stared deep into

Jasper’s eyes.”But you were Lyse’s only love. Do you still remember that rainy night you

went to her place? Do you know what she said to me?”

Jasper returned a blank stare. His forehead was drenched in sweat.

“I confessed my love to her, but sheturned me down right away.” Landon smiled bitterly.

He was never a man who needed to go to such lengths for a woman.

He continued, “She told me that she wouldn’t have fallen in love without you and would

not fall for any man after leaving you.”

Jasper’s eyes wavered in shock. He felt as though he was stabbed everywhere across his body as the pain spread.

“Alyssa Taylor, you said that you wouldnot love anyone until I showed up,”he thought. He

wondered if that meant he had show n up way earlier in her life.

He needed answers. He demanded an answer from her.

Jasper’s phone buzzed in his pocket. He took out the phone with shaking hands. It

was a call from Ben, which reminded him that something might have happened to

Newton.

He hurriedly picked up.”Mr. Gorham, did something happen to Grandpa?”

“Mr. Jasper, your grandfather hassuffered a sudden stroke. Please hurry to the Solana City

General Hospital now!”

“What?” Jasper felt his chest tighten.

“Don’t worry too much. He’s been movedto the VIP room from the ER. He’s in a stable

condition.” Ben reported with lingering fear, “This is all thanks to Ms. Taylor. She

administered first aid to Mr. Newton just in time. Had it not been for her, Mr. Newton would

have been in a critical situation!”

Jasper’s cheeks were burning in shame, as though someone had slapped him multiple

times.
