Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487 

Alyssa had effectively labeled Simon as an ingrate with her firm and strong statement. 

If he wanted to distance himself from the Taylor family, she would air their dirty laundry in front of everyone. 

With a fake smile on his face, he shot a chilling look at Alyssa. He couldn’t help but question Sean’s taste in women. She seemed insolent and argumentative. If Sean married her, she would only bring trouble to the Lynch Family. 

The air turned awkward and tense. Javier viewed Alyssa as a troublemaker who seemed to bring chaos with her every appearance. While he acknowledged Simon’s capability, he felt uneasy upon learning about Simon’s connection to the Taylor Family. 

“I didn’t know you had a hidden past with the Taylor family,” Jasper chimed in, seemingly addressing Simon, but his eyes were on Alyssa. “So, does that make Ms. Alyssa the daughter of your benefactor? Is this how you repay her-by going against her?” 

Alyssa furrowed her brows and sulked at Jasper’s words. 

Was he actually defending her in front of his family? 

He had never sided with her when they were married. There was no need for the pretense. 

Newton’s frown deepened when he heard Jasper’s words. 

“Do you mean I couldn’t be an attorney just because we were indebted to the Taylors?” Simon would not have it. Faking a smile, he countered, “As a professional, I categorize people into two groups. They are either my clients or they are not. 

“I will do my best for Ms. Betty because she’s my client. Is there anything wrong with that? If you hire me for a case, I’ll do my job just as diligently. This has nothing to do with gratitude.” 

The gleeful look on Simon’s face triggered Jasper, who clenched his fists. 

“Oh, I wouldn’t dare hire you!” Alyssa waved her hands, seemingly shocked by the notion. She exclaimed, You’re an excellent attorney and a double-edged sword! Today, you might assist me, but tomorrow, you could be on the opposing side, helping others win against me!” 

As if that wasn’t enough, she lightly poked her cheeks and added, “You didn’t even show mercy to my dad, who is your benefactor. I must mean nothing to you. If you climb the ranks and end up working against me someday, you’ll undoubtedly crush me. I don’t have the means to hire and satisfy a big shot like you.” 

Even Alyssa was disgusted by the performance she had put up. She could rival Liana Gardner when it 

came to acting mean and petty. 

Jasper couldn’t hide his amusement, seeing the innocence on Alyssa’s face, which concealed her slyness. 

Simon coughed, feeling uneasy in his chest. 

Betty had wanted to openly taunt Alyssa, given that she was at home and in Simon’s presence. Even if 

she couldn’t physically hurt Alyssa, she hoped to at least make herself feel better.
