Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 170
How unbelievably cruel of you to bully your younger sibling, Betty Beckett!
Mrs. Rosie, look, Funderstand, truly. But please remember that I am not Jasper’s wife anymore. I’m an outsider who has no say
in family mallers. Alyssa was helpless despite her feeling indignant.
“I know. But who else can I count on except for you? I can’t talk to anyone about this.” Mrs. Rosie wept.
“Hey, d–don’t cry.” Alyssa felt sorry for the old lady and gently comforted her, “I have taken note of Lauren’s situation. Please
take care of her for now. F’ll help her out if I get the chance to do so.”
“Thank you! Thank you, Madam Alice!” Mrs. Rosie expressed immense gratitude and reluctantly ended the call
Abyssa sighed after the phone screen went dark.
“Is she the old lady at the Becketts that you’ve mentioned before?” asked Jonah after taking a sip of tea.
“Yeah. She’s an honest and kind soul who raised Jasper. She was good to me when I lived at the Becketts“.”
She would not hesitate to reciprocate and hit back at those who wronged her. Similarly, she would forever remember the
kindness of
others.
“It must have been a serious matter if she felt the pressing need to call you.”
“It was Lauren, the youngest of the Becketts.”
Her heart pained upon recalling Lauren’s innocent and blank face. “That child’s autistic. And she’s pretty reserved and
introverted. She doesn’t get much attention from her parents and lives her life walking on eggshells.”
Alyssa continued, “I was able to help her out when I was with the Becketts. Betty did not go hard on her when I was involved
because she’d have to play nice with her sister–in–law. But things went downhill after I left.”
“Well I pity the girl but this is their family matter.” Sighing softly, he looked concerned for his sister. “You should keep out of the
Beckett

family drama now that you’re divorced.” 1
“I know. I won’t cross the line. By the way, I thought you were busy at work. Did you visit me because you missed me?” Walking
around him, she hugged his neck from behind.
“Of course I miss you. But the reason I’m here is because of this. I think we need to discuss.” With a smile, he handed her an
invitation
card.
“Is this Alyssa gaped.
“Mr. Javier had his secretary deliver Newton Beckett’s birthday invitation to me.” Jonah sounded intrigued by the move.
“Hah, great. In the end, you were dragged into the mess.” She immediately saw through the strategy behind it. “We’ve never
gotten along well with the Becketts.
“As business rivals in the open, we’ve never interacted much for years. So, it begs the question of why Javier Beckett invited you
to Newton Beckett’s birthday.
“It’s clear that Javier did not plan to invite you. I bet his spouse convinced him to send you the invitation.”
Jonah stroked his chin. “Lyse, they seem hostile. The birthday event might be more complicated than it appears.”
“I’ll take whatever comes my way. Why would I fear a washed–up B–list actress when Jasper does not even taze me?”
She took a seat beside Jonah haughtily. “I’m not dumb. I’m calculative only when I need to be. If she wants to play a game with
me, I’ll play along. Jonah, I’m going to tear up the invitation card. Just pretend that you never saw it. You don’t have to entertain
them.”
“No. I’ve decided to attend,” Jonah replied firmly.
“What?”
“Us Taylors fear nothing. We stand tall and take on any challenges–that’s who we are.” He felt sorry for her and gently caressed
