Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283

Alyssa’s Bugatti disappeared into the night. Jameson nudged his glasses with an uncontrollable smile. His heart fluttered with burning passion.

…

The La Voiture Noire sped on the flyover. Alyssa rolled down the window to enjoy the night breeze. She fell into deep thought while staring at the cityscape across the river.

“Ms. Alyssa, have you warmed up to Mr.Schmidt? That was fast.” Clutching the steering wheel, Sean asked in a stuffy manner.

“I guess so. We had a lot to talk about.”

“He might have saved you before, but hehad also stalked you to our neighborhood. You should be careful around him,” Sean grumbled.

“Maybe he did so because he recognizedme and was curious to know more. I think he’s a decent fellow after two meetings with him. Sometimes, he does sound a little funny, though. Is it because Kontina is more liberal than us?”

Her eyes sparkled, and she added,”Most importantly, he is playing the same game as me! He’s my soulmate! We even made a pact to crush the newbies someday!”

Sean felt increasingly bitter upon hearing that. Pursing his lips, he wallowed in disappointment before asking, “You’ve never been this patient with men. Do you …have a crush on him?”

“What makes you think so? Is theresomething wrong with your head?” She rolled her eyes at him, looking speechless. “If anything, he should be the one tocrush on me. Why would I fall for a man?I don’t have the time for that. Dating is an obstacle to money-making!”

Cheered by her remarks, Sean chortled. Thankfully, Alyssa remained level-headed after meeting with Jameson Schmidt.

When the car slowed down in a low-speed zone, a card fell out from the flower basket.

“Hm?”Alyssa picked up the card with afrown. She opened the card to find a neat handwritten note from Jameson. He wrote, “Oh, to be young and in love!”

She narrowed her eyes. Jameson Schmidt was quite a character, indeed.

“Oh!Wouldn’t she keep her guard up afteryou spoke to her?” Sean asked worriedly.

Smiling, she wagged her finger. “No,I didn’t do it to alert her. I was luring her. I

provoked her with my words today to heighten her anxiety when her engagement nears. She’ll fumble. She’s dead set on marrying Jasper Beckett and will do anything to remove the obstacles in her path.”

Sean gaspea when realization dawned on him.”Does that mean she’ll find and hide her child?”

Alyssa nodded with a sly look.”She will likely get Rosaline to help her out because it will be hard to move about when she is 1being hospitalized at the moment.

“Only Rosaline would know thewhereabouts of the child under foster care. I’ve set the bait. Now, we will wait for them to bite.”
