Can’t Win Me Back

Alyssa and Jasper shot one another a knowing look, their hearts beating in unison. Javier's face had long paled as he watched them leave. It felt like all the blood in his veins had turned to ice. There were three luxury cars waiting outside the cemetery.

Alyssa and Jasper climbed into the first car while Newton sat in the second. Soon, Javier walked out of the cemetery with Rory by his side, the former looking quite dejected.

"Mr. Javier," Ben greeted respectfully. "Mr. Newton is asking for you to join his car. He would like to speak to you about something."

Javier's eyes darkened. The father and son sat together in the car as if an invisible wall separated them. "Did you want to talk to me, Dad?" Javier asked quietly.

Newton said calmly as he stared straight ahead, "Now that Sophia has admitted to her crime, only death awaits her—unless you still have feelings for her and plan on reducing her sentence.

"I'm still going to make myself clear right now—I will definitely make Sophia pay her life in return for taking Jasper's mother's. I have tolerated her vile acts for years. All I want to do now is to send her to her death. No one can stop me."

cheeks flushed. "I won't, Dad. I've seen Sophia's true colors. I won't interfere anymore."
