Can’t Win Me Back

Alyssa was shocked to see the name on Jonah’s phone.

“Should I answer it?” Jonah asked.

“Yes!”

He slowly answered the call and put it on speaker, but he was in no hurry to speak.

“Mr. Jonah, are you with my wife?” Jasper asked in a hoarse voice.

Alyssa found his words incendiary and became furious in an instant. “Mr. Jasper, please mind your words. I’m your ex-wife.”

“Alice White, I knew you’d be with him.” Jasper’s tone was deep.

“Should I be waiting at your house to be kicked out, then?”

On the other end of the call, Jasper’s expression turned dark. “I advise you not to be in such a hurry. We haven’t completed the procedures, and the divorce certificate hasn’t been issued. You’re still legally my wife. Please be mindful of the Becketts’ reputation as if it’s your own.”

“You took Liana Gardner to Seaview Manor and forced me to sign the papers. Jasper Beckett, did you care for my reputation when you did that?” Alyssa sneered, then continued, “One-sided courtesy doesn’t mean anything. Since you don’t care about my reputation, why should I care for the Becketts’? After all, I respectfully gave up my position as the president’s wife to Liana. You should ask her about that.”

Jonah raised his brow and took a sip of tea. This was the real Alyssa. The obedient and gentle wife who was always wronged by the Becketts was just a persona she had made up for Jasper.

Although he felt that his sister was perfect, he liked the feisty woman that was not scared of the world and had no restraints more. Thankfully, she had returned.

Jasper sounded tired when he spoke again, “I don’t have time to argue with you. Grandpa is sick. He’s in the hospital, and he’s been asking to see you. He won’t take his meds if you’re not here.”

Alyssa became distressed when she heard that. Although she was already divorced, old Mr. Beckett was good to her. She could give up all the assets and not want a single penny, but she couldn’t let go of that adorable old man.
