Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 784

Chapter 784 

Acquaintance? 

A shockwave of disbelief swept through everyone like an earthquake. Their eyes widened, and all 

attention turned to Sophia. 

This included Javier and the members of the Harper family. 

However, only Jasper remained calm amid the commotion, just like Alyssa. 

Ever since Alyssa began suspecting Sophia, he had also harbored suspicions. Unfortunately, he suffered a 

severe head injury during that time and had to undergo life-threatening surgery. Following that, Zoe had 

caused chaos, delaying his investigation. 

Tonight, when Alyssa came alone to find Sophia, he took her upstairs, intending to stop her actions. He 

didn’t want Alyssa to get into trouble. 

If Sophia was bold enough to set up an ambush against Lyla in front of everyone, she might also resort to 

dangerous actions against Alyssa! 

He could do the dirty work for her, ensuring she wouldn’t have to dirty her hands or step into any mess. 

He could willingly be her executioner for all things dirty and sinful. 

He acknowledged his anger, resentment, and even some hatred toward her for not trusting him. 

Yet, in the deepest recesses of his soul, he still loved her. This love made him extreme, no longer 

weighing pros and cons, solely wanting her at the center of his life. 

“Sophie, Alyssa said you are acquainted with the attacker. Is that true?” Javier felt his heart tighten and 

couldn’t help but ask. 

“Javier, are you questioning me? Alyssa is doubting me for no reason, and now you are siding with her 

and kicking me while I’m down?” 

Sophia widened her eyes, expressing sorrow and grievance as she poked her own chest with sharp 

fingertips. 

This reaction was somewhat exaggerated, akin to a melodramatic soap opera. 

At this moment, the still-drowsy Betty stumbled out of the room. 

She heard her father’s question word for word, and her heart pounded like a drum under the shock. 

In her memory, her father had always been very affectionate toward her mother. 

“Mrs. Beckett, shall we have a chat?” Alyssa coldly glanced at Sophia. 

“Sorry, Alyssa, it’s late now, and I need to rest. I don’t have time to chat with you. Let’s talk another day.” Sophia was aware of Alyssa’s ill intentions, evident in her resentful tone. 

“You have no time, but I do. I have plenty of time.” 

Alyssa raised her brows, confidently smiling as she walked to the forefront. 

“The night is long, and we can take our time to discuss our grievances. I’ll accompany you in the 

conversation until dawn.” 

“I’m old and can’t keep you company. Please leave!” Sophia’s expression darkened, and her attitude 

became firm. 

Jasper and Landon both clenched their fists. 

When it came to Alyssa being bullied, both Jasper and Landon were on the same page. They were open to 

discussing anything, but they wouldn’t tolerate seeing her mistreated.
