Can’t Win Me Back

Jasper discreetly clenched his trembling hands into fists under the table.

With a dim look in his eyes, he answered Sheryl, "I'm fine.

What brings you here, Dr.

Gillis?" Sheryl smiled warmly.

"Mr. Jasper, have you forgotten? Mr. Javier instructed me to stay by your side and keep a close watch on your health whenever I have time." "Even so, don't you know what the most basic manners are?" Deep down, Xavier rolled his eyes.

"Even if you wanted to look after Mr. Jasper's health, the president's office isn't a place you can barge into just as you wish.

Dr. Gillis, are you as impolite as this before Mr. Justin too?" Sheryl wasn't offended.

Instead, she lifted her lips into a smile.

" Every field of work is different.

Mr. Hall, you're only saying this because you've never been in this field.

So, I don't blame you.

"But, if Mr. Jasper's condition were to flare up while there was no one around him to tend to him, would you be responsible if anything bad happened to him?" Xavier burned with so much anger that his chest hurt.

He tightened his fists.

They were at such a delicate juncture.

If Sheryl took advantage of the current situation by always being by Jasper's side, she would have the upper hand.
