Chapter 751
Can’t Win Me Back
"Jameson Schmidt!"
"Mr. Beckett, instead of accusing me without evidence, why don't you consider how you'll explain
yourself to the Harpers? How do you plan to clarify this with your friend, Landon Harper?
"Ms. Harper is unmarried. Given recent events, I believe marriage might be on the horizon for you.â
Jameson smiled.
"Jimmy, quit it. Let's go," Alyssa suggested. She felt a stabbing pain in her heart and had the urge to
flee the scene. She needed to get away from Jasperâas far as possible.
As they turned to leave, Jasper persisted, "Were you with Jameson the entire night?"
"Yes," she said coldly, her back turned toward him.
"Alyssa, is he more important to you than me?" Jasper trembled despite trying to control his
emotions.
"Jasper, what's the point of asking that now?" She chuckled, her eyes dimmed. "To be blunt, you've
dug your own grave. I was lying to myself. Let's call it quits nowâI beg you."
With that, they vanished from his teary vision. Alyssa did not turn back at all
Jasper stood in the snow for a long time until his knees went limp. He fell onto his knees. It was then
Xavier ran to him, panting.
Xavier gasped, "Mr. Beckett! Where's Madam? Has she left?"
Jasper hung his head like a defeated soldier. He grabbed the ice cream she had discarded on the
floor until it melted in his hands. Tears rolled down his cheeks.
He mumbled, "She's never trusted me. I don't mind if she doesn't have feelings for me, but how
could she distrust me?
"Should I keep going? Is there even hope?"
Alyssa and Jameson sat in the back of a luxury car as it sped to the hospital. The air was heavy in the
car.
Jameson turned to her with a worried look. "Lyse, are you angry at me? Sorry, I did it because I was
worried about you."
"You're not to be blamed for my meeting with Jasper. You don't have to feel bad about it."
Jameson's breathing grew heavier. He could tell that Alyssa was still averse to him, and he clutched
his fists indignantly.
She lowered her gaze stoically and tapped on her call history on her phone. Jasper's number was
nowhere to be found in the log.
"I called you many times tonight, but you didn't answer! I thought something had happened to you,
and I've been worried about you all night!" His remark echoed in her mind.
He really didn't have to lie on that matter, and he didn't have to call her with his other number after
the incident. It was a futile attempt.
Suddenly, a doubt surfaced in her mind. She held her breath and tapped on the list of blocked
numbers. Her eyes darkened when she spotted Jasper's number on that list.
