Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 56
Rosie was taken aback. She couldn’t believe Jasper didn’t see through the cunning girl’s pathetic act. He was indeed a fool.
At this moment, Jasper picked up a black umbrella. His face was calm as he pushed the door open.
“Hey! Mr. Jasper!” Rosie anxiously called out.
Jasper continued to walk out with the umbrella. Rosie was so frustrated she stomped her foot.
Outside the door, Liana sat helplessly in the rain, unable to hold on any longer. But as soon as she saw Jasper walking toward
her, she became overjoyed. She turned on her charm and pitifully wept as she collapsed forward.
Jasper’s eyebrows furrowed. He walked up to her. He held the umbrella over her while using the other hand to forcefully lift her
from the ground. His demeanor was firm and adamant, so she could not break free even if she wanted to.
“Jasper ...” Liana murmured, then threw herself into his embrace.
Just moments ago, she seemed frail. But now, she miraculously revived in his presence. She wrapped her arms tightly around
his sturdy waist and leaned against his chest.
A sense of irritability surged in Jasper’s heart, and he spoke softly, “You have a weak body. Staying under the rain will make you
sick.”
“You wouldn’t have met me if I didn’t do this. I just wanted to see you. Why won’t you meet me?” Liana raised her pale and
miserable face, her gaze filled with panic and confusion. “Jasper ... do you no longer love me? Lately, you’ve been cold toward
me. Is it because of the incident with the suit? I know I was wrong. I’ll apologize to Alice and beg for her forgiveness. Is that
enough?”
“There’s no need. I’m no longer angry,” Jasper said indifferently. “You’ve seen me now, so you can rest assured. Go home and
stay with your family. I will find you once things settle down.”
“Jasper, please... save my brother, okay?” Liana realized he was becoming impatient, and her face flushed with anxiety. She put
down her pride as a wealthy young lady and clung tightly to his muscular body.
“My brother is about to be sentenced! No lawyer in Solana City dared to defend him because of the Taylor family’s power and
influence. They have gone too far and are pushing the Gardner family to the edge! Jasper, you must help us! My family is almost

bankrupt. Everything will fall apart once my brother goes to prison! Please, I beg you.”
Jasper’s gaze remained cold and firm, his tall figure unwavering.
Some might call him heartless, but his love for Liana was persistent. He had kept his promise as a young man until he turned
thirty, even if it meant hurting another woman who deeply loved him, and even if it meant bearing the title of an unfilial grandson,
he was determined to marry her.
Some might call him compassionate, but he was impartial and resolute when it came to official matters. The Gardner family
committed a crime, and he showed no mercy. He was as cold and decisive as a judge in the court of law.
At this moment, Jasper recalled his ruthless words to Alyssa when negotiating on behalf of the Gardner family and how he used
the issue with the Gardner family against Alice. He was instantly filled with regret, and his tone turned frigid.
“The Taylor family is innocent, and your brother is the one who brought this upon himself. I suggest he confess and seek a lighter
sentence. That’s the right thing to do. As for the Gardner family, your family should reflect on their mistakes. One rotten apple
spoils the bunch. Even if I were to give you another billion, there’s no hope if you don’t address the issues within your own
family.”
Liana’s lips trembled, and she was dumbfounded. She had thought that by crying and acting miserable, Jasper would soften and
comply with her as he had done before.
But she was wrong this time. Jasper used to be lenient with her because she hadn’t crossed a line. But once she overstepped
her
boundaries, he wouldn’t show mercy even to the woman he loved.
In the end, Jasper forced Liana, still crying, into the car, instructing the driver to lock the doors. He watched her leave with a
tense
expression, and only then did he sigh a breath of relief.
He stood in the rain with the black umbrella for a long time, remembering the disappointed look in Alice’s eyes. There was a
pang in his
heart. He couldn’t stop it even if he wanted to.

With Dylan’s arrest, the Gardner family fell into complete desolation.
Mr. and Mrs. Gardner were not even concerned as Liana returned, covered in mud, her face pale and lifeless. They immediately
asked if the Beckett family would intervene on behalf of them or if they would help in hiring a powerful lawyer. However, Liana
could only shake her
head anxiously with a dejected expression.
