Can't Win Me Back

Sean’s jaw dropped in astonishment.

But Alyssa remained calm. She yawned and muttered, “What’s with the name-calling, hm? Look. You

scared my secretary.”

“Why did you sever all communication after returning to Solana City, Alexa? Everyone on the team has been praying and hoping for your swift return.” Tears welled up in Sliva’s eyes.

“I’m sorry, dear. I won’t be able to return to you guys for a long time. I need to help my family out here.

You’ll have to take charge of the firm in Yoarkley in my stead.” Alyssa sighed.

She continued, “Don’t worry about the funding, though. My previous designs will fetch prices that can

“If the Beckett Group contacts me again, I’ll tell them that Alexa has decided to work with KS Group!”

Sliva said.

Alyssa smirked. “No need. We need to give them some hope in order to have them fall gracefully flat on

Sliva’s eyes widened. “I understand.”

“We can’t declare victory before they’ve even made their first wave of attacks,” Alyssa grinned.

She continued, “I can’t let Jasper lose his chance to put on a good show. Racing to the finish line, only to

nearly bowed down in reverence to Alyssa.

“Hey, wake up.” Alyssa snapped her fingers in front of him, jolting him back to reality. She suddenly asked,

“Do you think I’m being too cruel?”

As she swirled around in her desk chair, Sean replied, “I think fair’s fair. He deserves this for treating you

honest. It was the fact that he unabashedly showed off his love for Liana while we were married.”
