Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 1114

To Jasper’s surprise, Alyssa frowned and decisively stepped on his toes with her heels,

sending pain across his body. It was one thing to have his expensive tailored shoes ruined;

it was another to suffer from a crushing pain.

“Behave yourself, Mr. Beckett,” Alyssa chirped and flicked her hair.

Strands of her hair brushed against his cheek, tempting him. She warned, “If you don’t, I’ll

see to it that your toes are crushed by horse hooves.”

Lowering his gaze, he croaked, “When we get home, can we-”

“We’ll talk about that later,” she cut him off.

Despite her stubbornness, she was overwhelmed by embarrassment. Her lashes flickered.

Meanwhile, Jasper felt sorry for himself. It seemed that Alyssa had the final say when it

came to intimacy.

“I believe everyone here has a rich experience in maintaining racecourses and horse

breeding. It’s a close fight.” Ezzo seemed excited. An idea crossed his mind. This was a

great chance to test them out. “Why don’t we start a little competition at this event?”

“A competition?” The guests around were astonished at the suggestion.

“I heard that all of you have brought your horses to the race. You might not have

handpicked the horse, but you must have raised and trained the horse by yourself. Let’s

have a horse race of our own. My company will partner with the winner to develop the

racecourse hotel project.”

Everyone gasped at the notion, which seemed quite rash. However, Ezzo had his own

reason for doing so.

Firstly, the four distinguished families were similarly powerful and giants in their

respective industries. Choosing a partner via a competition was the best way to pacify

those who lost out. Secondly, Ezzo was rather unenthusiastic about the idea of another

business venture with the Becketts, mostly because he was dissatisfied with Jasper.

However, he could not make his feelings known due to the Becketts’ standing in Solana

City. Therefore, he would use the competition as a front to introduce three strong

competitors into the game.

When Alyssa learned about the plan, she furrowed her brows. She was very enticed by the

racecourse hotel project.

As always, she was very ambitious and wouldn’t miss any opportunities to make money.

Reading her mind, Jasper asked gently, “Lyse, didn’t you mention that Blaze was

mediocre? I noticed that my dad’s horses and those owned by the Harpers are expensive

thoroughbreds. They clearly want to show off at the event.

“How confident are you? If… If you don’t think you can win, I’ll get Xavier to swap Blaze for

another horse right now. How does that sound?”

As Alyssa’s man, he did not want her to lose out on the excellent opportunity.

“It’s too late for any swapping. Besides, Winston is an arrogant man. Swapping out his

horse is like an insult to him. You’re basically telling him that you look down on him.”

After some thinking, she replied, “Leave it as it is. The quality of the horse matters, but

one should also take into account the equestrian’s talent. Only a good racer could

maximize the potential of a top-notch
