Can’t Win Me Back

"Mr. Beckett, Ms. Alyssa, we're here. This is Maggie Madison's home," announced Xavier while

scanning the environment.

Having grown up in a highly educated family, Xavier had performed dirty work for Jasper over the

years, but never had he witnessed such an awful living environment. Since they did not have

bodyguards with them, he felt quite tense.

Unlike Xavier, Jasper calmly got out of the car. As it had rained earlier, Jasper stepped right into a

muddy puddle as soon as he disembarked. The mud splashed all over his expensive shoes, but he

remained unbothered and seemed at home.

"Mr. Beckett! Look out! The ground—" Xavier tried to warn Jasper, but it was too late.

Jasper said casually, "It's fine."

Alyssa had wanted to follow suit, only to be lifted off the seat. She gasped and panickedly wrapped her

arms around Jasper's neck.

He had lifted her into his arms because he didn't want her to walk in the mud. He grinned and said,

"What are you panicking over? I always have a good grip on you."

"Mm... You should have warned me. I was shocked!" Punching his chest playfully, she understood his

concern and said, "It's just a water puddle. I'm not that fussy. Look, I had my fair share of hard times
