Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 286
Liana exerted herself for her birthday party. She was no longer her previous sickly self and mustered all her energy to plan the
event.
She called up event venues and made arrangements for the dress and makeup. One would have thought she was getting ready
for an engagement party.
Jasper was not involved in the preparation in any way. Knowing that she was doing much better, he stopped visiting her at the
hospital.
Liana was obviously upset at his indifference. Still, the birthday party remained her top priority at the moment.
The night before the birthday party, Liana tried on the evening dress she had borrowed from Rose after much persuasion.
She could not keep the dress from slipping down because the dress had a wider bust. The two maids were sweating with worry,
but they fàiled to keep the dress in place.
“Clumsy losers!Why did we even keep youaround the house?” Liana gave the maids a shove in the heat of the moment. Her
face was flushed.
“Why don’t we ... get a tailor to alter thedress? We can also use a few pins to keep the dress in place,” one of the maids
suggested tentatively.
Liana started sweating from the irritation. She refused to admit that she was worried about the compensation.
She had signed an agreement to borrow the dress, which was worth six figures. If the dress got dirtied, torn, or altered in any
way, she would have to pay Rose five times the price of the dress.
Putting aside the astronomical amount, she was reluctant to give Rose Emerson a
single cent because that woman was cozy with Alyssa.
“Get me some ta pe right now!”
Soon, the maids hurried back with tape. They plastered the tape in the inner bust area before putting the dress on Liana. The
dress was finally secured.

“Ms. Gardner, you’re clever! This is ahandy trick!” The maids praised her to the skies. She let out a long si gh with a smug look.
Right then, they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Rosaline showed up in a great hurry with a tense expression.
“Mom!”Liana’s heart almost stopped atthe sight. She quickly ordered the maids,”Get going now.”
After the maids scurried out of the room, Rosaline swiftly locked the door from within.
“Mom, how did it go?”Liana went up to
Rosaline urgently, holding the hem of her dress.
“It’s settled.” Rosaline clasped herdaughter’s hand in her palms.
“You’ve been through a lot of trouble.”Liana grabbed Rosaline’s hands tightly with a serious look.”I will never forget your huge
favor. I will pay you back sometime.”
“Sweet child, what are you talking about?You’re my flesh and blood. Of course I will side with you!” Looking pale but unrelenting,
Rosaline replied, “Now that you are back together with Jasper and received Javier’s support, you are a step away from marriage.
“You can’t give up at this point. I will notallow anyone or anything to stand in the way of your marriage with Jasper Beckett!”
...
The next day, Liana’s long-awaited birthday party kicked off as the night fell.
The Gardners hosted the guests at the largest ballroom in Berenike Hotel to show off their close relationship with the Becketts.
On top of that, Sophia had invited VIPs from Solana City and across the nation to attend the party on behalf of Javier. She
poured so much effort into the birthday party as though it was her second wedding.
Meanwhile, the opulent ballroom was filled with melodious music and the rustles of the luxurious outfits of the guests. The
wealthy VIPs in Solana City had attended the event for Javier.
Although Sophia had been called in for an investigation by the prosecution, she was proven innocent after Henry Kirkman was
revealed to be the culprit.

As a result, she sprang back to life and dressed up to attend the event hand-in-hand with Javier, chatting merrily with the guests
as though nothing had
happened.
“Mr. Javier, Madam Sophia,congratulations to you!”
“It’s my niece’s birthday. You shouldcongratulate her.” Sophia was decked in jewelry and appeared to be in a good mood.
“Ms. Gardner is Mr. Beckett’s fiancée,isn’t she? I believe we’ll hear some good news from them pretty soon. That’s why I am
congratulating you on the new addition to the Beckett family!””Hahaha!Thank you!”
