Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

It was as though Renee was nothing more than a pile of garbage at his feet.
Renee was completely disoriented, kneeling on the ground and forgetting to stand up.
No compare, no despair.
This comparison had made her experience extreme despair.
"Ms. Alyssa, is there something you want to talk about?" Jasper approached Alyssa. His gaze was profound, and his voice was
husky.
"Yes. Can we talk privately?" Alyssa's eyes were calm. Though she was not loud, it was enough for everyone around to hear.
Without hesitation, Jasper replied, "Sure."
The two left together under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Behind, there were only sounds of surprised sighs, one after another.
They all felt that the two were truly a perfect couple. They were so well-matched that it drew envy.
Alyssa and Jasper arrived at the hotel's back garden.
The cool night breeze scattered her luscious black hair into the air, creating a scene as mesmerizing as a painting.
The two fell into silence. It seemed like there were many things to talk about between them, yet everything was left unspoken.
Even the silence felt heart-wrenching.
"I didn't expect you to come tonight with a new companion."
Jasper broke the silence with his usual harsh words. "I thought you would come with Jameson."
"Why? Are you disappointed that I didn't come with Jimmy?"
Alyssa's eyes narrowed slightly, and she didn't mince her words. "I also didn't expect you to have some acquaintance with my
cousin. You seemed quite close just now. Did I ruin something by calling you out here so abruptly?"
She truly was sharp-tongued.

Hearing that, Jasper was so angry that he was unable to catch his breath. His face alternated between red and pale.
"Is this why you called me out here? To say this?"
He coldly smirked. "We've been divorced for a long time. Why are you still so concerned about whom I interact with?"
Smiling, Alyssa wagged her finger. "Jasper, you think too highly of yourself. Whoever you interact with has nothing to do with me.
"If you're interested in Renee, I can even help you set things up. After all, she's my cousin. We might end up as relatives."
Jasper clenched his fists secretly at her words, his eyes gradually turning red.
No one could provoke him like Alyssa. Alyssa was the one and only.
"But Renee is a Taylor, after all. She can't be your concubine. You should think carefully and choose between Ms. Zoe and
Renee. Make a decision and stop wavering."
Those words couldn't be more hurtful.
Jasper felt a sharp pain in his chest. With red-rimmed eyes, he pushed Alyssa against a sturdy tree trunk.
With a sturdy arm propped beside her head, he leaned down, staring at her intently. His eyes were filled with turbulent emotions.
Alyssa's throat instantly went dry. She tightly bit her lip.
She could even feel his muscular contours trembling beneath the black suit, and she dared not maintain eye contact.
"Alyssa, since you've chosen to leave me, you should stay far away. Why do you keep appearing in front of me?"
Jasper's pale lips slowly approached her. His lowered gaze was desolate and ambiguous. "I love you, but that doesn't mean my
dignity is at your disposal to be trampled upon repeatedly."
