Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Cornelius suddenly recalled that Landon had been in charge of the Harpers' bodyguards for years. At

first, Cornelius decided to let Landon take charge of the security just to give Landon something to do

and train his skills, as security wasn't a core part of the Harper Group anyway.

To his dismay, his careless decision to give out authority had come back to bite him.

"I've worked with Jonah to surround the castle with security." Landon squinted dangerously. "Grandpa,

I'm not trying to give you a tough time. As long as Zoe pays for her action and repents for her behavior,

you can totally walk out of here safely."

"Landon Harper, you brat!" Cornelius' veins bulged in anger.

"Who's the brat here?" Suddenly, Jasper glowered at Cornelius, looking like an awakened beast, ready

to kill. One could smell danger from him.

He added, "Who's the one who sided with evil? Who repeatedly tries to hurt my woman, thinking they

had backing? It's you and your fucking granddaughter."

The guests were rattled by Jasper's air of authority. Meanwhile, Alyssa looked at him through tears.

She found herself still in love with him, and she loved it when he proclaimed that she was his woman.

Jasper sensed a metallic taste in his throat from all the rage he suppressed. His face crumpled. His

chest tensed underneath the suit, and his fists tightened. Fury and pain had charged through him,

making him feel he could destroy anything at that moment.

"Whoever defends Zoe will make themselves my enemy. For that, I will torture them forever, making

their lives a living hell. Try me."

Cornelius was a veteran in the underworld who had undergone his share of gruesome gang fights for

turfs. Despite his experience, he cowered in front of Jasper.

"Grandpa, bring me with you! Grandpa!" Zoe tugged and pleaded at Cornelius, who had stiffened.

Gripped by fear, she found herself unable to cry. She wondered if Cornelius had faltered in front of

Jasper.

Had Cornelius become a useless old fart who was easily intimidated?

"Zoe Harper ..." Alyssa struggled to keep her heartache in check and maintained her composure. She

left Jonah's arms and took a step closer to Zoe.

At that moment, Zoe was surrounded by threats. She might have hated Alyssa and wanted her dead,

but she had no fight left in her. All she wanted was to escape.

"I have just one question for you." Alyssa shut her eyes and reopened them, casting a hostile look at

Zoe. "Where did you get my infertility diagnosis from?"

Once again, Zoe became the center of scrutiny. Alyssa had asked the most important question.

"Right? I'm curious about the same question as well."
