Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818 

Zoe enthusiastically leaned toward Newton and assured him, “Jasper and I will stay by your side tonight. 

I’ll be here for as long as you stay.” 

Hearing this, Jasper scowled. Alyssa noticed his expression. Unlike others, Jasper was unreserved in 

expressing his dislikes. With a quick temper and low emotional intelligence, he relied on capability rather 

than diplomacy for business deals. 

She remembered that he always scowled at her when they were married. Was he upset at Zoe? 

She looked away, refusing to pay him any attention. Even if he was unhappy with Zoe now, he must have 

been welcoming toward her when she knocked on his hotel room door on the night of the scandal. 

“Ms. Zoe, I have undergone the checkups. It’s not a huge issue at all. I can be discharged now,” Newton 

replied. 

He always addressed Landon by his first name, but with Zoe, he stuck to “Ms. Zoe”, seemingly keeping a 

distance between them. 

He teased, “If you stay by my side when I’m at the hospital, I might never get discharged.” 

It was a joke that sounded jarring and humiliating to Zoe. 

Before this, Betty had complained about Newton to Zoe, claiming that Newton was an old fool who didn’t 

know the good from the bad. 

Betty accused Newton of doting on Alyssa and ignoring her. Newton not only opposed Jasper’s divorce 

but also passed on a family heirloom-a crystal bracelet-to Alyssa. 

It was a good thing that Liana had destroyed that crystal bracelet out of spite. Zoe thought that Liana had 

finally done something right for once before being kicked out. 

Panicking, she explained, “No, Grandpa. That wasn’t my intention.’ 

She then cast a pitiful look at Jasper, but he didn’t even pay her attention, blocking out any 

communication with her. 

“Ms. Zoe, I appreciate your concern, but I only need Jasper and Ms. Alyssa by my side. It’s late now and 

rather dangerous for a young lady to wander out here alone. I see that your bodyguards are here with you. 

Have them send you home,” Newton addressed Zoe warmly without fuss. 

Despite his kind attitude, Zoe looked ashen-faced. Newton didn’t accept her goodwill and even refused to 

have Jasper send her home. It was his way of telling her to get lost. 

How despicable! 

When Newton was sent to a care facility in the future, she secretly vowed to bribe the caretakers so they 

would neglect and abuse him. 

“Alice! Come here!” Newton changed his expression and waved at Alyssa with a smile, ignoring Zoe. 

“Sure, Grandpa,” answered Alyssa. 

She was averse to Jasper but approached Newton nonetheless to appease him.
