Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 280
As the visitors gradually exited the rose garden, only Alyss a and Liana were left behind in the endless sea of roses.
In the fading light, Alyssa’s bare face looked as luminous as the moon, to the envy of Liana. Putting aside their grudges, Liana
had to admit that Alyssa was an extraordinary beauty.
Alyssa’s beauty evoked fear and resentment in Liana. After all, Alyssa had spent three years under the same roof with Jasper,
despite their relationship being a sham marriage.
She bit the bullet and went up to Alyssa while flicking her straight hair. She no longer looked like the frail woman when she was
around Jasper. She flashed Alyssa a victorious grin.
“You found a new love r pretty fast. Quiteskillful, aren’t you? You should have done
that sooner. No matter how much you bother Jasper, he will not take another look at you.”
Alyssa stared at Liana, as though she was staring at a madwoman.”Why would I want his attention like a peacock?”
Liana choked and silently cursed at Alyssa. She showed her trump card next. “I’ll tell you some good news since we ran into
each other. I’m getting engaged with Jasper at my birthday party.”
“Is that so? Congratulations, but I don’thave any gift for you,” Alyssa replied mindlessly.
Liana was enraged at Alyssa’s indifference, which she perceived as an affront.”You can deny it as much as you want, but I’m
sure you are secretly pissed off. You can’t do anything about it. I will be Jasper’s spouse, and you will be a joke in Solana City.”
“Hey, Liana Gardner. Every time we meet,
you are either screaming about winning over Jasper or showing off your relationship. Is that your life? Do you have nothing to
show except for a divorce e as your boyfriend?” Alyssa sighed in boredom. She lost some brain cells every time she spoke to
Liana.
Even so, it was hard not to clap back at an arrogant and ignorant bitch like Liana.
“What did you say?” Liana glowered atAlyssa.

“I understand the urge to show offbecause you’re marrying up, but you should at least talk to the right person. He might be a
treasure in your eyes, but he’s just trash to me. It’s all meaningless, don’t you think?”
Trash?
Liana’s face was flushed when she retorted, “This is pure sour grapes!The meaner you are, the more you care about my
engagement with Jasper! You call him
trash only because you’re upset! Who wouldn’t be if they were abandoned by their lovers after wasting three years of their lives!”
Alyssa’s eyes frosted up. Her dagger-like gaze gave Liana the chills.
“You have to learn when to stop. Youshouldn’t cross a line just because I’ve backed down. My kindness is not a green light for
running your mouth. This is my last warning—do not take advantage of my courtesy, or you’ll suffer, Ashley.”
The mention of “Ashley” was akin to dropping a bomb on Liana. She was ashen-faced and badly shaken. Feeling the blood
rushing through her veins, she held her breath and stumbled backward.
“What’s with that look?” Alyssa grinnedwhen she saw Liana’s pale face.”Wasn’t Ashley your name when you were studying in
Mosgravia? I’ve never come across anyone like you who jumps at the mention of their name.”
“I don’t know who is Ashley. This is myfirst time hearing the name. I don’t know what you’re on about,”Liana fervently denied any
association with the name as her breathing became shallow.
Ashley was an easy woman and a gold-digger, the exact opposite of Liana’s prim and proper persona she crafted for Jasper.
Alyss a narrowed her eyes. With a dangerous gleam, she inched closer to Liana with her arms behind her back. She bent over
and flashed a hostile and knowing smile at Liana.
