Can't Win Me Back



Chapter 2443

Soon enough, Jasper and Jonah found themselves surrounded by a horde of fighters. The atmosphere was charged with a vicious, merciless tension that heightened their awareness.

They were now in the underground parking lot of Berenike Hotel.

This was one of the Beckett family's properties, with Newton overseeing the construction personally.

Berenike Hotel had always been the leader among all the five-star hotels in Solana City. Yet, on this day, when a critical press conference was about to begin, Justin chose to start a massacre in the hotel's parking lot, disregarding the potential damage to the hotel's reputation.

His actions were utterly insane and perverse.

"Shall we each take down ten of them?" Jonah nudged Jasper with his elbow. Narrowing his eyes, he added, "The press conference starts in ten minutes. Think you can wrap this up by then?"

A cold, fierce glint flashed in Jasper's usually dull eyes. "I'll take down 15 and leave five for you."

"Why only five for me?"

Jasper's gaze remained calm as he explained, "You're like an older brother to me, which means I'm lower in the hierarchy. It's only right that I work harder."

Jonah blinked in surprise, then laughed despite the tense situation. "That's just a hierarchy. Don't act like you're that young, Mr. Beckett. You're not that young."

A serious look crossed Jasper's face. "At the end of the day, this is between Justin and me. It is a family matter. I already regret involving you guys. This wasn't my intention."

Jonah fixed his gaze ahead. "Don't say that. We're family."

Something tugged at Jasper's heartstrings. As he studied Jonah's sharply defined side profile, a flood of emotions he couldn't name coursed through him.noveldrama

"Jasper, I'm here!"

A loud shout echoed, followed by the roar of a powerful engine.

A sports car worth ten million dollars sped into the parking lot, knocking down five people in an instant. The car drifted smoothly before coming to a stop in front of Jasper and Jonah.

The door opened, and Landon emerged, his presence commanding. He rolled his shoulders and tilted his head, exuding the air of a grim reaper ready to claim lives.

"Landon..." Jasper's eyes widened in disbelief, his voice thick with emotion.

Landon clicked his tongue. "What would you do without me?"

He then raised a brow and smirked playfully. "Am I right, Jasper?"

It was time. The press conference was moments away from commencing.

Backstage, in the green room, Justin sat upright on the couch, eyes closed in quiet contemplation.

Sheryl handed him a cup of tea, which he took with both hands. After inhaling its fragrance, he sipped it elegantly. "That damn Axel. How could he hurt you like this? You could've walked into the press conference looking flawless, "Sheryl muttered, seething with frustration.

"Don't worry. Sometimes, imperfections can be a form of perfection," Justin replied, stirring his tea gently. "They still haven't shown up, even though I've given them so much time. I wonder have I overestimated Jasper's abilities?"

Sheryl sneered. "What abilities? His so-called abilities only came about because you gave him the chance. If you hadn't stepped down as Beckett Group's president and handed the position to him, he'd never know what it's like to be in charge. He should be grateful to you!"

Justin frowned slightly. "Sheryl, that was too harsh."

"Sir, it might've been harsh, but my point stands."

Justin chuckled. "You're right."

Just then, Sheryl's phone rang. The moment she answered, panic flashed across her face.

"Oh no! Sir, Jasper, Jonah, and Landon have barged into the hotel's parking lot!"

Justin's eyes narrowed, a sinister glint in them. "Stop them no matter what it takes."
