Can’t Win Me Back

Chapter 538

Right after Alyssa entered Jasper’s room, Sean immediately got a call from Liam. He picked up. “Hi, Mr. Liam.”

“Sean, as her secretary, why didn’t you immediately report her whereabouts to us?” Liam interrogated Sean right away. “Why are you at the Solana City Memorial Hospital with Lyse? Is she there to see Jasper Beckett?”

Jonah chimed in calmly, “Liam, calm down.”

Liam, usually gentle, was only out of character when it came to matters concerning his sister’s well-being.

Sean was shocked by Liam’s intel and gasped, “Mr. Liam, how… how did you know? We kept it a secret!”

“GPS tracking.”

Jonah sighed helplessly. “Liam almost put to use his method to track criminals. Tracking down Lyse was a piece of cake.”

Sean was rendered speechless.

“Liam, stop worrying about Lyse. Even if you scold her, given her character, she will not listen to you and come home. Just let her be. She’s an adult,” advised Jonah, who seemed unbothered by the incident.

“I will station a team of guards to the hospital and stand guard in front of Jasper’s room. Sean, I’ll have to trouble you to keep an eye on them. Inform me right away if that bastard lays a finger on Lyse,” instructed Liam.

“Roger that, Mr. Liam!” Sean almost stood at attention from the young colonel’s air of authority.

Liam seethed, “If he tries anything on Lyse, I’ll make him stay in that hospital for the rest of his life.”

Jasper happily took his meds and applied the ointments since Alyssa agreed to stay by him.

The hospital served some bland dinner that wasn’t even nutritious, but he wolfed it down because he was in a good mood. The food tasted like the best meal he’d ever had.
