Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 354
Just like that, Alyssa and Ada left the hall, walking closely together as if they were lifelong friends.
An awkward and tense silence settled over the crowd.
Jasper silently watched as Alyssa left, fury slowly building in his chest. She had stolen his project last time, and now she had
taken his guest.
Jasper thought that Alyssa Taylor was just like a thief, heiress or not. He instinctively clutched his chest, feeling an ache in his
heart.
It seemed like something had also been taken away with Alyssa’s departure.
The paparazzi were still relentless, camped outside the main entrance of the Berenike Hotel.
They should have dispersed by now, assuming that Ada had checked into the presidential suite and retired for the night.
However, the number of paparazzi showed no sign of diminishing.
Sean had secretly tipped them off, claiming that something big would happen tonight.
“Why on earth are we here freezing our backsides off? What kind of major news could possibly be

unfolding?”

“Perhaps KS World Hotel refuses to surrender and is making a last-ditch effort to turn the tide in their
favor.”
“It’s a tough battle. This is Solana City, not Belbanks. They can’t expect to win against the Beckett family on their home turf.
Alyssa Taylor could never outsmart Jasper Beckett.”
“You might be right about that! That man might be down in luck when it comes to love, but he’s always the
victor when it comes to business!”

Just then, the blaring of a car horn broke through everyone’s speculations.
The paparazzi watched as a dark green Rolls Royce glided to a stop at the hotel entrance, its Spirit of
Ecstasy gleaming in the light.
Thinking that it was probably some other influential individual, the paparazzi instantly started taking pictures. When the door
opened, Sean stepped out, much to the crowd’s dismay.
He was hot, but hot wouldn’t make the headlines!

“It’s Ada! Ada Kingsley is coming outside!” someone cried all of a sudden. The crowd’s attention immediately shifted back to the
hotel entrance.
Sean had already opened the car door, waiting patiently for the two women to come out.
The venue was bathed in blinding white flashes as the paparazzi erupted into a frenzy, capturing every
moment as Alyssa and Ada emerged.
“What is going on? Did Ada leave on her own, or did Alyssa persuade her?”
“Jasper Beckett is in for a major humiliation!”
“This is going to make headlines for sure! Hurry up and swap the film!”
Everyone’s attention had successfully shifted to Alyssa, including the netizens’. The hottest hashtag on social media went from
While Sean helped Alyssa into the car, a reporter asked a question.
“Ms. Alyssa! Are you intentionally provoking the Beckett Group by taking Mr. Jasper Beckett’s guest of honor for tonight? Isn’t
this unprofessional?”
Alyssa turned slowly to face that reporter, shooting him a look that made him break into a nervous sweat.

“Can’t I invite Madam Ada to dinner with me just because she has decided to stay at the Berenike Hotel
during her visit to the city?”
She nearly scoffed, adding, “Not even Mr. Jasper said anything about my gesture. Who are you to do so? Doesn’t your
assumption portray him as too narrow-minded?”
With that, she entered the car. It left before anyone else could react to what just happened.
