Can’t Win Me Back

Jasper's arrival plunged the conference room into an uneasy silence, and heavy tension settled over the space.

Justin looked up, his expression a frozen mask. A palpable chill emanated from him.

Javier's eyes widened in surprise. "Jasper? What are you doing here?"

"Even though I'm no longer the president of Beckett Group, I remain a shareholder and board member. It's only natural for me to be here," Jasper replied smoothly as he strolled to his seat.

As he passed behind Justin, he abruptly stopped.

Without a moment's notice, he struck the back of Justin's chair. The sudden impact made Justin flinch.

"Am I right, Justin?"

Justin's expression darkened. Forcing a smile, he replied, "As a board member, you have the right to attend, even if you're no longer involved in operations. There's no issue."

"If that's the case, why wasn't I informed about this meeting?"

Jasper lowered himself into his seat, legs slightly parted, exuding an air of indifference. Yet, beneath the nonchalance was an undeniable authority that warned others not to overstep.

Justin offered a small smile. "Then perhaps you should ask your secretary. Why didn't he notify you of such an important meeting? That level of negligence is unprofessional, wouldn't you agree?"

The air grew heavier.
